Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 16

Every once in a while, the schedule gods look down and gift us exactly what we need, exactly when we need it. After a grueling 15 weeks and a rollercoaster filled with ups and downs, and even more downs, it's time for all of the league's biggest losers to put up or shut up in […]

Gardner Minshew Has Favorable Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew has been solid since retaking the starting job for the Jags, throwing three touchdowns and no interceptions in the last two games. He gets a solid matchup on Sunday against a Falcons squad that's allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season. That doesn't mean […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Keeps Riding The Roller Coaster

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo resumes his position as a middling QB2 in Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams. Jimmy G faceplanted in Week 15 at home, managing just 200 yards and a touchdown against the lowly Atlanta Falcons. The volatile Garoppolo faces a similarly bipolar Rams Defense that ranks 11th overall against […]

Dwayne Haskins Not In Play For Week 16

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins has arguably the most favorable matchup of his young career on the docket in a home bout with the Giants this week. The Giants are the seventh-worst defense in the NFL in terms of passing yards allowed and touchdown rate on opposing pass attempts. Unfortunately, Haskins hasn't given fantasy owners […]

Deshaun Watson Has Great Week 16 Matchup

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson faces a Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense on Saturday that's allowing the seventh-most fantasy points this season to opposing passers, and while the Bucs pass defense has improved some as the season's gone along, Watson should still be considered a QB1 for this matchup. It's been awhile since Watson's had a […]

Baker Mayfield Hard to Trust in Week 16

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield draws a difficult matchup against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 16. Mayfield threw for 342 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding another rushing score when these two teams met back in Week 4. That being said, Baltimore's defense has improved significantly since these two teams first played. They […]

Sam Darnold An Unappealing Option In Week 16

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold has limited the turnovers that plagued him earlier in the season, but is still not producing at a level that would make him a strong play in fantasy. Darnold has eclipsed 300 passing yards just once in his last nine games and has more than two touchdowns just once […]

Daniel Jones Set To Return In Solid Streaming Spot

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) will return from a two-week absence to take on the Redskins on Sunday. Even though Evan Engram (foot) is on the IR, Jones will have a solid cast of weapons to throw to against a defense that ranks 20th against the pass. The game currently has an over/under […]

Jared Goff Worth The Spin

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has payback to deal to the San Francisco 49ers this week. He had one of his worst games of his career against them earlier this season when he went 13-for-24 for 78 yards. Goff hasn't had trouble moving the ball the last five weeks with 277.2 passing yards per […]

Derek Carr A Risky Quarterback Option

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will have his work cut out for him this Sunday versus the Chargers in a tough divisional battle. Last time these two teams met back in Week 10, Carr mustered up just 13 fantasy points versus this defense when they were banged up. Los Angeles has since returned to full […]

Drew Brees Remains A Strong Option In Week 16

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 16. Brees is coming off his record-setting performance on Monday Night Football and gets to face a Titans secondary that could be without their best corner Adoree' Jackson (foot). The volume has been there for opposing quarterbacks against Tennessee, as they've […]

David Blough Not A Recommended Week 16 Start

Detroit Lions quarterback David Blough struggled against one of the more tame defenses in the NFL in Week 15, throwing for just 260 yards and two interceptions on 43 pass attempts, and things are not going to get any easier with the Denver Broncos on deck in Week 16. Blough has had a negative effect […]

Jameis Winston Questionable For Saturday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (thumb) returned to a full practice on Thursday but is listed as questionable for Week 16 against the Texans on Saturday. Winston has been taking it easy in practices since he suffered a fractured thumb in Week 14, but he went off against the Lions last week and should […]

Dak Prescott May Not Throw Until Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (shoulder) said his AC sprain is "getting better" and that he'll "be good to go Sunday" in a huge divisional tilt against the Eagles. He might throw on Friday but at the latest he'll resume throwing on Saturday. All signs point to Prescott suiting up for a game that will […]

Matt Ryan Should Be Serviceable In Week 16

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan should be able to put together a solid line in Week 16 against the Jaguars. The Falcons have struggled to develop a run game all year, so Ryan will likely be relied upon to throw the ball around 40 times in the game. Star wide receiver Julio Jones is coming […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 16) - Targets and Avoids

The Atlanta Falcons delivered the biggest blow in Week 15 to whatever remains of survivor pools with a last-second win against the 49ers as 10-point road dogs. Just more than six percent of entrants took the Niners on Run Your Pool's site-wide distribution pick. That's because San Fran was the sixth-most selected team. There was only […]

Will Grier Confirmed As Week 16 Starter

Carolina Panthers interim head coach Perry Fewell confirmed on Thursday that rookie quarterback Will Grier will start in Week 16 against the Colts. The expectation earlier this week was that the Panthers would give Grier the keys to the offense for the final two weeks, and now that is confirmed. With nothing to play for, […]

Benching Star Players? Don't Dance With Who Brung Ya

The common adage is to "start your studs" or, in more folksy terms, "dance with the one who brung ya." The common thought between it all is simply that certain guys on your team have been solid for you all year and gotten you into the finals or 3rd place game, where you're playing for […]

Jerry Jones Optimistic About Dak Prescott

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones showed some optimism on the status of quarterback Dak Prescott (shoulder) for Week 16 in the important meeting with the Eagles. "I’m totally convinced he’ll be in top form. We need him in top form and he will be in top form," Jones said. Prescott should be active, but he […]

Josh Allen Faces Tough Week 16 Matchup Against Patriots

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a nightmare of a game last time he faced the Patriots. In Week 4 against the Patriots, the Bills suffered their first loss of the year while Allen completed just 13-of-28 passes for 153 yards with no touchdown passes and three interceptions. He did have a rushing touchdown in […]

Trent Brown Sent To Injured Reserve

Oakland Raiders Pro Bowl right tackle Trent Brown (pectoral) was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday, according to head coach Jon Gruden. Brown has been a huge asset for Oakland's offensive line, mainly in pass protection, in his first year with the Raiders. His loss could prove costly in the team's final two games, starting […]

Mitch Trubisky Still Has Plenty To Prove

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky and Co. have been eliminated from the playoffs but have plenty to play for against the Chiefs in Week 16. It has been a wildly disappointing season for Trubisky, who has posted a 75 or lower QB rating in eight games and has only 17 touchdowns in 12 full games […]

Tom Brady Has Unattractive Week 16 Matchup

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and his struggling offense will take on a tough Bills team in Week 16. It has been a brutal stretch for Brady and the passing game recently as the future Hall of Famer has passed for less than 200 yards in three of his past four games. Brady has […]

Daniel Jones On Track To Start Sunday

New York Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) was working with the first-team offense again on Wednesday and is on track to return as the starting signal-caller for Week 16 against the Redskins. The 22-year-old missed the last two games with a mild high ankle sprain, but he'll be back under center to close out […]

Dak Prescott To Be Limited In Practice

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (shoulder) will be limited in practice on Wednesday after getting injured in the Week 15 blowout of the Rams. Prescott should be just fine to play in an extremely important divisional game against the Eagles this Sunday. The winner should take the NFC East division. Prescott will be a top-10 […]

Jameis Winston Throwing Tennis Balls

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (thumb) was limited to throwing tennis balls in practice on Wednesday for the second week in a row after fracturing his right thumb in Week 14. He did not grip a football last week until Friday and then went on to throw for a career-high 458 yards, four touchdowns […]

Quarterback Start/Sit Advice - Week 16

Pierre Camus and Chris Mangano break down the quarterback position to help with tough fantasy football lineup decisions for Week 16 of the 2019 NFL season. They decide who to start or sit in order to give you the best advantage to win your weekly matchup. Like and subscribe to the RotoBaller channel on Youtube […]

Carson Wentz a QB2 Option in Week 16

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is a QB2 option for a Week 16 NFC East clash against the Dallas Cowboys. Wentz is missing pretty much every wide receiver and will be throwing to his tight ends and a guy named Greg Ward. Wentz managed three touchdown passes and 266 yards in Week 15, but that […]

Dak Prescott a Solid Choice for Week 16

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a solid choice for Week 16 fantasy lineups. The Cowboys travel to Philly for what is essentially the NFC East championship game. Prescott wasn't really needed in Week 15 as the run game dominated the Rams, leading to just 23 pass attempts for the Cowboys. Before that, however, Prescott […]

Fantasy Football Risers, Fallers - Jameis Winston, Breshad Perriman, Anthony Miller

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.
