New England Patriots 2020 Fantasy Outlook
For the first time in pretty much forever, the New England Patriots are not being looked upon as a robust AFC contender.

Running Back Stat Sleepers - Missed Tackles Forced
Plunging into the world of football analytics is without question a great way to find fantasy sleepers for the coming season.

I will […]

Duke Johnson is the DJ to Own in Houston
There is an overwhelming sentiment echoed (particularly online) that Duke Johnson will never be a lead back.

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was quick to respond to Ed Werder's Twitter post regarding a potentially reduced role for the former rushing champ, quipping "we all gonna eat."
