Week 11 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

Some big news in the NFL this week. Le'Veon Bell won't be back this season, so you can finally drop him in re-draft leagues if you hadn't already. It's good to have some clarity to that situation, though I know that a lot of people are frustrated because they spent first rounders on him. In […]

Lamar Jackson Will Start Sunday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will draw his first start in Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The rookie will get a chance to make a statement as this is a big divisional matchup. He’ll get a Bengals defense that has been plagued by injury and hasn’t been very effective this season. Jackson’s dual-threat ability […]

Robert Griffin III Could Play In Week 11

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III could make his season debut against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. The Ravens have yet to name a starter for Sunday's game, but with Joe Flacco (hip) listed as doubtful on the team's injury report, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network believes Griffin will open the game under […]

Week 11 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

I cannot believe it is Week 11 already! This season has flown by and things in the NFL are starting to settle down. The good teams are really starting to distinguish from bad and the pretenders are falling away a little bit. The same goes for the players in the consistency ratings. The best running […]

Joe Flacco Is A Huge Question In Week 11

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) is unlikely to play against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Flacco is currently listed as doubtful for the game, although coach John Harbaugh has left the door open for the 11th-year veteran although he did not practice at all this week. Even if Harbaugh rolls the dice, in […]

Philip Rivers A Strong Start In Week 11

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is a force to be reckoned with this year. At 36 years of age, Rivers is on pace for one of the best seasons of his career. He's currently on pace to top 35 touchdowns with less than 10 interceptions, and he should finish north of 4,000 yards passing […]

Lamar Jackson May Get First Career Start

The Baltimore Ravens still have not announced who their starting quarterback is for their Week 11's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, but there is a strong possibility it will be rookie Lamar Jackson as Joe Flacco (hip) is listed as doubtful for the game as he has not practiced all week. Jackson missed Thursday's practice […]

How to Approach the Eagles' Fantasy Options Moving Forward

The Philadelphia Eagles blew a fantastic opportunity to solidify themselves as a playoff contender with a 27-20 home loss to their arch-rivals Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. With the loss, the Eagles dropped into a tie for second place in the NFC East with Dallas at 4-5. Philadelphia, coming off its bye its week, really […]

At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact.

Ryan Fitzpatrick in Play as a QB1 Against Giants

Buccaneers quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick disappointed owners last weekend with an absolute dud against the Redskins but has a chance to bounce back against the Giants' porous defense. The New York Giants are basically in a weird rebuilding phase where they are pretending to try. With the current state of the defense and Eli Manning at […]

Joe Flacco Doubtful For Week 11

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco (hip) is doubtful for the Week 11 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 33-year-old did not partake in any of the Ravens' three practices this week, and it was disclosed during the team's bye week that he suffered the injury during the loss to the Steelers in Week 9. While […]

Case Keenum Set to Come Out Firing

Denver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum averaged 16.1 fantasy points over his last five games before the team's Week 10 bye. But, more importantly, he went into the bye on the heels of his first interception-free game of the season. Keenum told the media, "It’s fire-all-the-bullets-in-the-chamber...” time for this offense, but unfortunately, he'll draw a Chargers […]

Top College Prospects - Dynasty League Scouting (Week 12 Edition)

Week 11 didn't have much drama among the playoff contending teams. Oklahoma had a scare in their rivalry game, but ultimately left with a win. And with all of the top teams winning, there was no change into top 10 of the College Football Playoff rankings. Week 12 is an ugly slate of games for […]

Derek Carr A Risky Play As Always This Week

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is a risky play against the Cardinals and should be considered an option to sit. In his last four games, Carr has three games where he hasn't recorded a touchdown, which is showing how limited his fantasy value truly is. The Raiders have an implied team total set at 17.5 […]

Russell Wilson Comes Back From Ugly Start

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was way off to start Thursday's game against the Packers, but he found his stride in the second half to lead Seattle to the victory. Wilson was just 3-for-8 in the first quarter, but he completed 78% of the rest of his passes on the evening. His 225 yards and […]

Deshaun Watson Set For Strong Week Against Washington

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is in a good position to succeed in Week 11 against the Washington Redskins, who have allowed 300 or more passing yards in three consecutive games. Though they held Tampa Bay out of the end zone on pass plays in Week 10, the Buccaneers put up 406 yards. Watson, meanwhile, […]

Mariota Looking To Stay Hot Against The Colts

Despite a shaky start to the season, Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota has been playing very well following the team's Week 8 Bye. In the two games since then he has thrown for 468 yards and 4 touchdowns with no interceptions and also rushed for a touchdown. The Titans will need Mariota to continue to […]

Aaron Rodgers Impressive In Loss

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for 332 yards on 21-for-30 throwing with two touchdowns and no turnovers in a losing effort against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday night. While it wasn’t a monster stat line, his performance both on the field and in fantasy was improved from the past few weeks. His accuracy and […]

Finding Waiver Wire Gems on Bad Teams

There are a lot of bad teams out there in the NFL in 2018 as you will see in the list below. Some expected, like the Raiders and some not so much, like the Jaguars. Whether bad by design, bad injury luck, or bad coaching (the Raiders fit all three), some players still stand out […]

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 11

The good times continue to roll for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who put up 52 points against the Carolina Panthers last Thursday night and now find themselves in the midst of a five-game win streak. Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger continued his absolute dominance at home by tossing five touchdown passes, including scoring receptions from Antonio Brown […]

Blake Bortles Bound to Decline Following Solid Week 10

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles follows up his solid Week 10 performance after a trip to play the Indianapolis Colts with a game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 11. Bortles performed as a top-five QB last week, which in turn could lead to some wanting to sneak him into their lineups this week. However, […]

Patrick Mahomes Should Be Efficient in Week 11

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been one of the best QBs in the league this season, but was slowed down last week. Mahomes failed to throw for more than 300 passing yards for the first time since Week 1. He heads into a matchup against the Rams defense that ranks 25th in QB […]

Patrick Mahomes Listed On Injury Report

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (foot) is listed on the Week 11 injury report but is practicing in full on Thursday. Mahomes isn't in any danger of missing the Monday night showdown with the one-loss Rams, but it's something to keep an eye on as he nears the end of his first full season […]

Josh Rosen A QB2 In Week 11

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen has struggled so far this season, with the rookie facing tough defenses most weeks. Playing a lackluster offense, Rosen has found it difficult to get the team's passing game going. Against a poor Raiders defense, Rosen has one of his easiest matchups of the season, making him a solid QB2 […]

Matt Ryan Should Perform Well In Return Home

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan will be pleased to be returning home to play in the Mercedes-Benz stadium. Ryan has completed 76.9% of passes at home with an average of 359.6 passing yards and 2.8 touchdowns per game. In addition, Ryan has averaged 9.88 yards per attempt and thrown just one interception in his five […]

Joe Flacco, Lamar Jackson Out Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterbacks Joe Flacco (hip) and rookie Lamar Jackson (illness) were both absent at practice on Thursday. Robert Griffin III was the only quarterback practicing. Flacco has missed two practices this week and appears to be on the wrong side of questionable for a big divisional matchup against the Bengals on Sunday. This could […]

Fantasy Football Q&A Mailbag - Week 11

Week 10 of the 2018 NFL Season is in the books, and here is a quick fantasy recap to keep you up to date. Mitchell Trubisky continues to quietly dominate, as he led all quarterbacks with 36 points. The Chicago signal-caller now ranks sixth with 22.5 fantasy points per game. Welcome back, David Johnson! It […]

Kirk Cousins A Mediocre QB Option In Week 11

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins faces a tough test in Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. He has failed to break the 300-yard mark in three of his past four games and is facing a defense that allows the 12th-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. Cousins will not be wholly ineffective, but it is hard to […]

Paxton Lynch Works Out With Dolphins

Free-agent quarterback Paxton Lynch worked out with the Dolphins last week during their bye week. Although this does not have much fantasy relevance, it is an indication that quarterback Ryan Tannehill may be out with his shoulder injury for longer than expected. The Dolphins were hoping to get Tannehill back for Week 12 but reports […]
