Drew Brees, Jared Cook Listed As Full Participants

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees (elbow) and tight end Jared Cook (concussion) were both listed as full participants. Brees was a late add to the injury report on Friday with an elbow injury that looked to have occurred on the last drive of a narrow, Week 14 loss to the 49ers. Cook was able […]

Drew Lock: Is He Ready For Fantasy Football Playoff Consideration?

There is much excitement in Denver after Drew Lock put on an air display at Houston last week. In just his second NFL start, the rookie threw for 309 yards and three TD passes, all in the first half, as the Broncos stunned the AFC South leaders, 38-24. The final score doesn’t indicate what type […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 15

Week 14 was a boring one on Tank Street, with all of the crowd favorites managing to take care of business and keep on losing. We did have another early contender fizzle out after Atlanta won their third game out of five, after starting the season a near-perfect 1-7. With two of their three remaining […]

Andy Dalton Off Streaming Radar

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton finds himself in a matchup to avoid on Sunday against the Patriots' league-best passing defense. New England has allowed only 15.4 points a game to opposing quarterbacks, and Dalton hasn't topped 262 yards through the air in his two games since being back under center. He should see a fair […]

QB vs Pass Rush Matchups To Watch - Week 15

Week 15 is here, and the fantasy playoffs are rolling. Some head into the fantasy semifinals as big favorites but others are scrapping to keep their season alive. Real teams start at quarterback, and the position is pretty important for fantasy as well. Quarterbacks have changed the game for fantasy football this year with guys […]

Kyle Allen Looks To Save His Job For Next Season

Carolina Panthers quarterback Kyle Allen will attempt to salvage what has been a disappointing season on Sunday against Seattle. With Cam Newton (foot) potentially already having played his last game with the club, the sophomore will look to make his case to remain the signal-caller come next season, with Seattle being the first of the […]

Inside the Tent - Week 15 NFL Injury Insight

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. What's avoidable though is making the wrong roster decisions based on the injuries surrounding your fantasy squad. If you want to dominate your leagues […]

Aaron Rodgers Has A Difficult Matchup Against Chicago

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a difficult matchup on Sunday against a Bears Defense that limited him to just 203 yards and a touchdown during the Thursday night season opener. The veteran hasn't been consistent, especially as of late, and has logged a touchdown or less in four of his last five games. […]

Gardner Minshew Is Intriguing Week 15 Option

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew threw for just 162 yards in his return to the starting role last week, but he should be in line to surpass that when Jacksonville faces the Oakland Raiders in Week 15. Oakland allows the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing passers, and the last time Minshew started against […]

Jared Goff Worth Rolling With

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has started to right the ship a bit after a three-game touchdown drought. He has thrown for 717 yards, four touchdowns and two picks the last two games. He'll have a solid matchup against a struggling Dallas Cowboys Defense. They've allowed 218.8 passing yards a game the last five […]

Kirk Cousins Is A High-End QB2 Against Chargers

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins is coming off a game in which he completed 80% of his passes for 242 yards and a touchdown against the Lions, continuing a streak of stellar play for the much-maligned passer. Facing a tough Los Angeles Chargers Defense on the road, it's likely that Cousins will need to throw […]

Kyler Murray A Roll Of The Dice

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has been spotty of late, and his matchup against the Cleveland Browns isn't a particularly good one. Murray has averaged 207.8 yards, 1.8 passing touchdowns, 1.3 interceptions, 33.8 rushing yards and 0.5 rushing touchdowns per game over the last five weeks. Meanwhile, the Browns have allowed 235 passing yards, 0.8 […]

Philip Rivers Facing Tougher Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is coming off a phenomenal game in Jacksonville, but he'll have his work cut out for him this week when the Minnesota Vikings come to town. Rivers will be squaring off against a top-10 defense versus opposing quarterbacks, and Minnesota's defense is tied for third in interceptions this year. […]

Dwayne Haskins Not A Viable Option For Week 15

Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins could be forced into action a little more this Sunday than he has been in recent weeks. His team has enjoyed a string of matchups against defenses susceptible to the run, allowing the Redskins to rely primarily on their backfield of late. The Eagles present a different kind of obstacle, […]

Ryan Tannehill A Solid QB1 Option In Week 15

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill might just be the hottest quarterback in the NFL not named Lamar Jackson as he's coming off a 391 yard, three touchdown performance in Oakland. Tannehill has now scored at least two touchdowns in all seven of his starts with the Titans while adding at least four rushing attempts in […]

Devlin Hodges Not An Option Against Bills

Pittsburgh Steelers Quarterback Devlin Hodges can be safely left on waivers for a Week 15 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The rookie hasn't thrown for over 212 yards once this season and while he's thrown a touchdown in each of his last three games, he hasn't thrown more than one in any game. While James […]

Drew Brees A Strong Start Against Colts

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees will get a favorable matchup at home against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15. The Colts Defense was picked apart by Jameis Winston for 456 yards and four touchdowns last week plus Brees is coming off a six-touchdown, 349-yard performance against the 49ers' league-best defense. Fantasy owners shouldn't be […]

Jameis Winston Resumes Throwing Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston (thumb) has improved enough that he is throwing a football in practice on Friday. The ball was leaving Winston's hand nicely on short and intermediate throws. Winston fractured his thumb in the Week 14 win over the Colts, but it looks like he's going to give it a go […]

Deshaun Watson Set To Bounce Back In Week 15

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson had his first multi-interception game since Week 7 in last week's loss to the Denver Broncos, but he should be positioned to rebound in Week 15 against the Tennessee Titans. The Titans are tied for the 10th-most interceptions in the league, but they're right in the middle of the pack […]

Daniel Jones Not Expected To Play Sunday

New York Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle) is not expected to play in Week 15 against the Dolphins, according to a source. Veteran Eli Manning will take his place for the second week in a row and will make at least one more home start in his career. Jones was limited in practice this […]

Baker Mayfield Draws Great Week 15 Matchup

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield draws an excellent Week 15 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have been one of the most generous defenses in the league for opposing passing attacks, allowing the most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. Mayfield's on-field performance hasn't been great this season but he has the weapons and […]

Eli Manning A Deep League Streamer This Week

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning will get one more chance to prove his value on Sunday. Daniel Jones (ankle) is not expected to play, which means Manning gets a prime matchup against a Dolphins Defense that ranks 27th in fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks. Manning didn't look great on Monday; he remains relatively immobile […]

Lamar Jackson Serves Up Five Touchdowns On Thursday Night

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson went on a touchdown rampage in Thursday night's 47-21 win over the New York Jets. Jackson went 15-for-23 for 212 yards and a blazing five touchdown passes to five different receivers. The performance was the third time he has thrown for five touchdowns in a game this season. Jackson led […]

Sam Darnold Has Another Average Day

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold went 18-for-32 passing for 218 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Darnold also threw an interception and lost a fumble as turnovers continue to be an issue for the sophomore signal-caller. This was a typical game for Darnold, he's had over 300 yards passing […]

Derek Carr Off The Streaming Radar

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr will take the field for the final time in front of the hometown Oakland fans this Sunday versus the Jaguars. Emotions will be running high with an electric stadium expected, but Carr shouldn't be trusted for your fantasy playoffs. His matchup is on the favorable side, but the offense funnels […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Is Heating Up

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has been scorching lately and could flirt with QB1 status in Week 15 against the Atlanta Falcons. After game managing to start the year, Jimmy G has three four-touchdown games in his past six contests and has registered a QB rating over 110.0 in six of seven. While he’s […]

Tom Brady, N'Keal Harry Practicing In Full

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (elbow) and rookie wide receiver N'Keal Harry (hip) are both practicing in full on Thursday ahead of Week 15 against the Bengals. Both players should be fine to play in an excellent bounce-back spot against the one-win Bengals this Sunday. Brady has been a disappointment in the second half […]

Ravens Could Rest Lamar Jackson In Week 17

The Baltimore Ravens could rest quarterback Lamar Jackson if they lock up the AFC's No. 1 seed by Week 17. If that's the case, Robert Griffin III would be expected to get the start in Week 17 against the Steelers, even if the season finale is important for the Steelers' chances of sealing a wild-card […]

Patrick Mahomes Taking Snaps Under Center

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (hand) took snaps under center at practice on Wednesday, but his right hand was pretty swollen on Monday after he injured it in the Week 14 win over the Patriots. Mahomes has been getting more treatment on his hand since the swelling went down earlier this week, including strengthening […]

Show Me The Money! Stashes That Could Win Your League

Success in the fantasy playoffs is all about planning ahead. Your bench is no longer a safe space for high floor players without much of a ceiling; they won't win you the big game. You need to look ahead and stash players with exploitable matchups in the weeks to come so that you don't get […]
