Doug Marrone, Dave Caldwell Have Chance To Stick Around

There is a "good chance" that both Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone and general manager Dave Caldwell return in 2020 following the firing of executive vice president Tom Coughlin, according to sources. Heading into Week 16, Jacksonville sits in last place in the AFC South with a 5-9 record. Free-agent signing Nick Foles broke […]

Ronnie Stanley Returning For Ravens

Baltimore Ravens left tackle Ronnie Stanley (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and is active in Week 16 against the Browns. Stanley, a Pro Bowler in 2019, is returning after missing the Week 15 contest. It's an upgrade to Baltimore's entire offensive line and for MVP candidate Lamar Jackson under center. Baltimore's offense is […]

Devlin Hodges On "Short Leash" In Week 16

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges is reportedly on a short leash entering Week 16's meeting with the Jets. The Steelers need a win to keep pace for the sixth seed in the AFC, so head coach Mike Tomlin has backup quarterback Mason Rudolph prepared to play if Hodges struggles. This shouldn't have too much of […]

Break The Slate: NFL DFS DraftKings Lineup Picks - Week 16 (Main Slate)

Hi RotoBallers and thanks for joining me for Week 16! With three games on Saturday this week, we'll be dealing with an 11-game main slate. While Week 15 offered us tons of great DFS options - and some ridiculously-high DraftKings scores - the pickings are a bit slimmer this week. That said, we still have […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 16 (Sunday) - Daily Fantasy Football

After three games on Saturday, we have a loaded slate on Sunday in what could turn out to be the most crucial week of the season, and also the most interesting.

NFL DFS Cash Game Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings (Week 16)

After a fantastic week with a 13-game slate last Sunday, Week 16 sees us drop back down to an 11-game slate thanks to the triple-header on Saturday. In some ways, I actually prefer that, because it gives us two slates to play on the weekend. Even though Saturday's games are taking away a number of […]

Fantasy Football Booms, Busts - Marlon Mack, Philip Lindsay, John Brown

It all comes down to this for millions of fantasy football players, well, unless your league thinks having its Super Bowl on Week 17 when half the league rests its star players is a good idea. If you are still alive in your fantasy league and on the verge of winning a championship, congratulations to […]

Week 16 Stream Team - Free Agent and Bye-Week Streamers

It is likely championship week for most of you, which means everything is on the line. Hopefully, many of you have a team set in place and do not need streaming options, but if you are here reading this article, it is likely you need some help at some position. My goal is to provide […]

Tom Brady Guides Patriots To Division Title

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady completed 26 of 33 passes for 271 yards and one touchdown in the Patriots 24-17 win over the Bills. The victory locked up the division title in the AFC East for the 11th year in a row for New England and Brady played his sharpest game in over a […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Leads Niners To Comeback Win

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo managed to lead his team to a comeback win over a relentless Rams Defense in Week 16. Garoppolo did throw a touchdown but struggled by also tossing two interceptions while completing only 59.3 percent of his passes. Despite having arguably one of his worst outings of the year from […]

Jared Goff Delivers Despite Loss

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff played pretty well for fantasy owners in Week 16, despite the 34-31 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was 27-for-46 for 323 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. What was good for fantasy owners this week might not be so ripe next week because they were eliminated from […]

Jameis Winston Throws Four Picks

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston finished with 335 yards and four picks during the loss to the Texans on Saturday. He also had a touchdown toss and 16 yards off of two carries. Despite Winston being without both Chris Godwin (hamstring) and Mike Evans (hamstring), the 25-year-old was still able to produce at least […]

Josh Allen Turns In A Solid Outing In Week 16

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a less-than-stellar matchup in Week 16, but he was able to turn in a productive fantasy outing regardless of the New England Patriots Defense. He finished 13 of 26 for 208 yards and two touchdowns. He also added seven carries for 43 yards. In standard-scoring formats, that was good […]

Deshaun Watson Disappoints In Week 16

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson wasn't able to get anything going during Saturday's win over Tampa Bay. Watson fell victim to an uncharacteristically efficient Buccaneers Defense that came away with five sacks on the day, while also limiting him to just 184 yards on 19-for-32 passing. He also threw an interception, his fifth in his […]

Jacoby Brissett Has A Great Matchup In Week 16

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been struggling as of late, but he has the chance to bounce back in Week 16. The Carolina Panthers have allowed the fourth-most points per game this season, and their passing defense hasn't exactly been elite. He got wide receiver T.Y. Hilton back last week, but that was in […]

Russell Wilson Lines Up For Another Big Game

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson will have the chance to light it up for the home crowd before Christmas this week when he faces off against an Arizona defense that is the worst in the league against the pass. The Cardinals have allowed more passing yards and fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks than any other […]

Buccaneers To Bring Back Jameis Winston In 2020

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are expected to bring back quarterback Jameis Winston for the 2020 season, according to sources. He's slated to get tagged in some form, but the exact type is unknown. The former No. 1 overall pick has led the Buccaneers to four straight wins and has gone over 400 yards passing in […]

Aaron Rodgers A Risky Start Against Vikings

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will face the Minnesota Vikings in a crucial Week 16 divisional matchup. For all his criticisms this year as a fantasy QB, Rodgers currently sits as NFL.com's QB8 on the year. Rodgers was sharp last week against the Bears stingy defense- though the stat sheet won't show it- considering […]

Kirk Cousins Is A High-End QB2 Against Packers

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has played very well this season, but it hasn't always translated to fantasy success. The Vikings remain a run-oriented team and have blown a lot of teams out, meaning Cousins hasn't needed to throw much in a number of contests. Though Mike Boone is no slouch, the likely absence of […]

Week 16 is here, and fantasy championships are on the line. Some teams head into the fantasy finals as big favorites but others are scrapping to pull off a big win as underdogs.

Expect that game to be a shootout, even with the Buccaneers banged up on the […]

Patrick Mahomes Should Be Efficient in Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has struggled in three of his last four games coming into Week 16. However, Mahomes is coming off a 340 yard performance against the Denver Broncos. He's set to do battle against the Chicago Bears Defense in Week 16. The Bears defense has been solid against quarterbacks, but Mahomes […]

Kyler Murray Should Ride The Pine

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray really hit a wall the last five weeks after he was a low-end QB1 for much of the season. He's 21st in fantasy points during the stretch as he threw for 726 yards, five scores and five picks while rushing 26 times for 153 yards and two scores. The Seattle […]
