NextGen Stats - Quarterback Breakdowns and Takeaways
It's been a month since the last time we took a look at our beloved quarterbacks. Numbers are numbers, and numbers don't lie. You can twist them, but looking at them objectively, numbers say that no matter what, rushing the ball is almost always a worse option than passing it in today's game. That's why […]
Teddy Bridgewater A QB2 In Week 7
Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is a QB2 for this week against the Saints. From a fantasy perspective, the QB has been mostly mediocre aside from Week 5 against the Falcons and overall has six passing touchdowns to five interceptions thus far. Though the Saints allow the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks, Bridgewater hasn't proven […]
Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 7
Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]
Coaching Matters: Offenses That Will Improve From Week 6
This series continues into its sixth week of where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 6, we saw performances such as Ryan Tannehill throwing for 364 passing yards, the Houston Texans running backs combining for 66 rushing yards, and the New […]
Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
Week 6 was like the 2020 of fantasy football weeks. All those great matchups meant nothing, those studs let you down, and your bench likely went crazy. The good news is that we didn't have any season-ending injuries to running backs or games canceled due to COVID, so in retrospect maybe we shouldn't complain. The […]
FAB Bidding - Week 7 Waiver Wire Targets
Whether it's injuries, bye-week blues, or simply poor performance, we've got the waiver-wire cure...but it just might cost you! Alongside our famous waiver wire pickups list and our weekly waiver wire columns by position, this column focuses on suggested waiver wire bidding percentages for fantasy football owners in leagues using a Free Agent Budget (FAB). In […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round
Week 6 was relatively healthy and had no coronavirus delays, so let's just take a moment to bask in that. That said, we still saw Miles Sanders (knee) and Zach Ertz (ankle) go down, while Mark Ingram (ankle) has a bye to get healthy. Week 7 byes are Baltimore, Indianapolis, Miami, and Minnesota. Let's get […]
Tom Brady A Low-End QB1 In Week 7
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is a low-end QB1 this week against the Raiders. The QB has been decent this season but posted a season-low 166 yards last week in the blowout win over Green Bay. Nevertheless, that was because the Bucs had a comfortable lead for most of the game. Brady is a […]
Daniel Jones A Desperation QB2 On Thursday Night
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has struggled so far this season and will face a quick turnaround playing on Thursday night versus the Eagles. The sophomore signal-caller has thrown just three touchdowns against six interceptions through six games. Jones also has three fumbles-lost, a stat he lead the league in as a rookie. While […]
Kyler Murray Hard To Contain In The Red Zone
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has used his legs and arm effectively in the red zone so far this year, completing 18 of 22 red-zone passing attempts for 109 yards and eight touchdowns. He hasn't thrown an interception inside the 20-yard line and has posted the fourth-highest red-zone passer rating in the league at 126.9. […]
Cam Newton Has A Nose For The End Zone
New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton has scored all five of his red-zone rushing touchdowns this year while working with a blocking disadvantage, using his 6-foot-5, 245-pound frame to his advantage with his quick feet doing the work. Newton has also completed eight of his 17 red-zone passing attempts for 61 yards, two touchdowns and […]
Josh Allen A Top-Tier Option Versus Jets
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has not been the ideal fantasy quarterback over the last two weeks. Last week, he only threw for 122 passing yards in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. However, Allen has a great chance to rebound against the horrendous New York Jets in Week 7. Allen was looking like […]
Andy Dalton Not A Strong Starting Option In Week 7
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton does not make for a strong starting option in Week 7 fantasy lineups. Despite a trio of excellent wide receivers along with Ezekiel Elliott running the ball, the Cowboys offense was a mess in Week 6, as Dalton completed 34 of 54 passes for 266 yards. He looked overmatched, overwhelmed, […]
Aaron Rodgers Has Week 7 Bounce-Back Matchup
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will try and get back on track in Week 7 against the Texans. Rodgers had entered the MVP conversation through the first month but was completely stifled by the Buccaneers last week. The veteran passer will have a shot at redemption against a Texans Defense that is allowing the […]
Matthew Stafford Has A Chance At Fantasy Success In Week 7
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford will have a shot at his best fantasy game of the season in Week 7 against the Falcons. Stafford is averaging 248 passing yards a game and has multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games. Now the Lions will go up against a Falcons Defense that is allowing […]
Nick Foles Lacks Fantasy Appeal
Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles will face a Rams Defense in Week 7 that is allowing the seventh fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Foles took over for Mitchell Trubisky 2.5 games ago and the results have been mediocre at best. The Bears offense has struggled in the running game and the vertical passing […]
Carson Wentz Faces The Giants On Thursday Night Football
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is a middling QB2 option in Week 7's Thursday Night Football matchup against the New York Giants. Wentz scored three touchdowns last week, throwing for 213 yards and two scores and running for 49 yards and another touchdown, but it was still an overall struggle for him and the Eagles […]
Raiders Putting Trent Brown On COVID-19 List
The Las Vegas Raiders are placing right tackle Trent Brown on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, according to a source. Contact tracing is underway with the team coming off of their bye week, so there has been minimal contact among players and coaches. The Raiders facility is open and practice will take place on Wednesday. […]
Bills Release Quinton Spain
The Buffalo Bills released offensive guard Quinton Spain on Wednesday. It comes after Spain signed a three-year, $15 million deal with the Bills in March, which included a $1.5 million signing bonus, a $1.4 million roster bonus and a $1.6 million guaranteed base salary. He started the first two weeks of the season for Buffalo […]
Lamar Jackson's Passing Numbers Are Down
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson's passing numbers are down across the board through six weeks this season, from completion rate to passing yards and touchdowns, but he says it has nothing to do with his mechanics. Jackson's sidearm delivery has been scrutinized over the last three seasons, but quarterbacks coach James Urban isn't worried about […]
Sam Darnold To Be Limited On Wednesday
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) will be limited in practice on Wednesday. It's a positive step for Darnold, who has missed the last two games with a sprained shoulder. Even if the 23-year-old gets cleared to return to the field this Sunday, he'll be hard to trust as a low-end QB2 in superflex […]
Disaster Recovery - Week 6's Studs Turned Duds
Week 6 was a pretty low scoring fantasy week for the top players in the league. If not for two Monday night heavy-hitters, only three running backs would have reached 18 points in PPR this week. Even still, just five got there. (In Week 5, 14 players reached that mark. In Week 4, 16 players.) […]
Dynasty Trade Targets for Rebuilding Teams
Maybe 2020 isn't going the way you planned. That could go for a lot of us in a lot of ways but this specifically refers to fantasy football. Maybe your dynasty team that once looked like a strong contender is sitting at the bottom of the standings with one lonely win or none at all. […]
Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 7
Week 6 of the NFL season has mostly come and gone and it was one of the more explosive offensive showcases yet. Six quarterbacks threw for over 300 yards, three quarterbacks passed for four touchdowns, and another three signal-callers had three passing scores. NFL teams have continued to feast on defenses that missed out on […]
The Cut List (Week 7) - Time to Let Go?
Even in the most bizarre of NFL seasons, the first six weeks of 2020 have provided us plenty of information with which to evaluate most players' rest-of-year outlooks. We've given our fringe starters the chance to show us something. We've held onto that tight end or wide receiver with breakout potential for more than a […]
Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7
The NFL proceeded with Week 6 after several COVID scares last week. Fortunately, no games were canceled and teams were back in action. With a lot of players injured right now, the waiver wire has proved to be incredibly important in terms of getting solid streamers and depth. At this point, many fantasy managers have […]

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 7
After the NFL started with a scorching hot offensive showcase, last week was somewhat of a letdown. Many players came back down to earth for the first time this year. From the Tampa Bay defense smothering Aaron Rodgers to the Cardinals overpowering the dwindling Cowboys, something just didn’t feel the same last week. Thankfully, we […]
Russell Wilson Faces Historically Stingy Matchup Sunday
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has made each of the five defenses that he has faced in 2020 look rather pedestrian on his way to becoming the favorite to claim the NFL’s MVP trophy this season. On paper, his matchup Sunday versus Arizona should be another such instance, which is backed up by his gaudy […]
