Calvin Ridley Not Expected To Play Against Broncos

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) is not expected to play in Week 9 against the Broncos. Ridley wasn't able to practice at all this week while Atlanta has a bye coming up in Week 10. It makes too much sense to play it safe and sit their star wideout, especially considering he seems […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 9) - Targets and Avoids

It finally happened. Underdogs finally came through with some outright upsets in Week 8. We've had some small-ish upsets here and there but not many touchdown underdogs winning in the same week. Underdogs went 10-4 against the spread with seven outright upsets. The biggest was the Bengals beating the Titans as seven-point underdogs. Another one […]

Week 9 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 8 was the toughest of the year so far with only four correct top-10 predictions after Tampa Bay notched seven points against the Giants on Monday night. That puts me at 40%, which is the worst finish of the season. Weather played a factor, with winds whipping over 20 MPH in a few games […]

Week 9 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We’ve made it to Week 9. Everyone pour one out because the NFL season is officially half over. We’ve seen more injuries to star players than I think we’ve ever come across before. Defenses continue to struggle to stop opposing offenses, and kickers are benefiting in a massive way thus far. Due to some whipping […]

NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Week 9 GPP Contests (DFS Tournaments)

We've all been staring at both "red states" and "blue states" all week, so I promise that my Week 9 GPP DFS stacks will not only be politics-free, but I won't even consider any "red" or "blue" teams either! I'm avoiding the chalky "red" of the Cardinals, Chiefs, and Falcons as well as the obvious […]

Calvin Ridley On The Wrong Side Of Questionable

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) is listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Broncos, but he didn't practice all week and the team thinks it will be tough for him to play this Sunday, according to a source. The Falcons will test Ridley in pre-game warmups, but this doesn't sound promising for […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for Sunday (11/8/20) - Monkey Knife Fight

Falcons Defense Will Be Missing Key Defenders

Atlanta Falcons defensive ends Dante Fowler (hamstring) and Takkarist McKinley (groin, illness) and cornerback Jordan Miller have been ruled out for Week 9 against the Broncos. It's more good news for a Denver offense that overcame a 21-point second-half deficit to beat the Chargers as time expired in Week 8. The Falcons Defense ranks 24th […]

Younghoe Koo A Strong Start

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo draws a favorable Week 9 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Koo has made 19 of 20 field goals and 14 of 17 extra points in 2020 and has four games this year with at least three made field goals. The 26-year-old has been a rock-solid fantasy kicker this season, which […]

Hayden Hurst A TE1 Against Broncos

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst faces the Broncos in Week 9. Hurst has at least 50 receiving yards in four of his last five games and could be looking at more targets if Calvin Ridley (foot) is unable to go. Denver has been a tough matchup for opposing tight ends, as they rank 12th […]

Russell Gage Should See More Targets Against Denver

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage could be looking at more looks in the passing game in a decent matchup against the Broncos in Week 9. Fellow wideout Calvin Ridley (foot) is banged up and questionable for the game, though he's a long-shot after not suiting up for any of the team's three practice sessions. […]

Calvin Ridley Questionable For Week 9

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) has officially been listed as questionable for the Week 9 matchup with the Broncos. Ridley was unable to practice all week after suffering the foot injury against the Panthers in Week 8. His inability to even get in a limited session certainly doesn't bode well for his chances […]

Julio Jones An Easy Start In Week 9

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones is an easy, must-start option against the Broncos in Week 9. Denver ranks 19th in fantasy points allowed to wideouts and just surrendered a 9-67-1 line to Chargers' number-one receiver Keenan Allen. The Falcons could be without the services of Calvin Ridley (foot), which would mean a boost in […]

Todd Gurley II A Middling RB2 Against Broncos

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II faces a Denver defense that ranks 18th against the run in 2020. At first glance, that would seem to bode well for Gurley II. However, the former Ram has averaged an unimpressive 3.8 yards per carry and has propped up his fantasy value with eight touchdowns. The Broncos […]

Matt Ryan A Low-End QB1 In Week 9

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan faces a plus matchup in Week 9 against the Denver Broncos. Denver has allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing signal-callers while Ryan checks in as the QB10. The veteran could be without Calvin Ridley (ankle), who is questionable, though he should have enough weapons at his disposal to put […]

Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Red Zone Targets (TE)

When you need a high-upside streamer at tight end, the decision doesn't always come down to target share or projected yardage. You're looking for a big play, preferably a touchdown to make your fantasy day. The prudent move is to find a player that is a relatively big part of the team's offense near the […]

Calvin Ridley Absent From Practice Thursday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley (foot) missed practice Thursday as he attempts to be ready in time to take the field Sunday versus Denver. Ridley played in just 33 percent of the team's snaps last Thursday against the Panthers before sustaining a foot injury that has sidetracked his breakout campaign. After opening the year […]
