NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 8) - Targets and Avoids

Football does not make sense. No matter how much you handicap, the amount of stats you can find, even watching tape, it sometimes does not matter.  On paper, there was the slimmest chance for the Patriots to beat the Bills. If they played 100 times, the Bills would have won upwards of 70 times. But […]

NFL DFS: Week 8 Matchups First Look - Totals, Salaries, Slates and More

Does anyone else wish we could pretend like Week 7 didn't exist? I am not too proud to admit that I whiffed in a big way on that slate. A few obvious things happened (Mahomes and Kelce dominating) but a lot of weird and stupid stuff did as well. Some chalk busted (remind me to […]

Jonnu Smith (TE, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 8

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Smith’s three catches for 27 yards in Week 7 would be decent for many tight ends, yet it was his worst effort of the season. That is saying a lot for Smith considering he is the No. 2 TE on his own […]

Is Bijan Robinson Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has been one of the most impressive rookies of 2023. Going into Week 7, he was the RB8 in terms of PPR scoring.

The underdogs were the talk of the NFL town in Week 7. Seven teams pulled off an upset creating a chaotic week for Pick 'Em pools. Looking ahead to the (hopefully safer) Week 8 slate, there are no teams on bye. NFL schedule makers, in their infinite wisdom, threw in a week when all teams […]

Desmond Ridder (QB, ATL) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 8

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Over the past three weeks, Desmond Ridder has scored 13.8 (Week 7), 16.1 (Week 6), and 26.1 (Week 5) points. While the 13.8 looks disappointing, he did lose three fumbles. It's highly unlikely he's going to continue having three lost fumbles. If we […]

Cordarrelle Patterson Goes Over 50 Yards

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson saw an increased role during Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The veteran back was the primary backup to Tyler Allgeier during this game.

Tyler Allgeier Rushes 21 Times

The second-year back saw 21 carries in this game with Cordarrelle Patterson as his primary backup. Sadly, Allgeier struggled on the ground with only 59 yards. He was able to somewhat salvage his […]

However, he […]

Sam Howell - Fantasy Football Sleeper And Start For Week 7

Coming into the 2023 NFL season, Sam Howell's fantasy outlook was a mystery. The second-year quarterback from North Carolina started just one game as a rookie after being selected in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. So far this season, he's had a few boom weeks, but he has been far from bust-proof. […]

NFL Betting Picks for Week 7 - Best Bets, Expert Odds and Predictions

It feels good to be back. I'm refreshed from my off week. I really needed that break after a brutal Week 5. The Ravens dropped almost every key pass and dropped my record on the money line below .500. Their failure to score much also contributed to my first loss on over/under picks. I sure […]
