Six teams are on the bye this week; fantasy football managers will need to make smarter decisions as their teams get through the bye-week gauntlet. The Browns, Giants, Steelers, Broncos, Cowboys, and the 49ers are off this week. Who can fantasy managers use to replace quarterbacks such as Dak Prescott, Daniel Jones, and Jimmy Garoppolo […]

Week 9 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

The NFL season and fantasy football season continue to fly by, and with the fantasy playoffs not all that far away, start-or-sit decisions have never been more important. The Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, New York Giants Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers, and San Francisco 49ers all have kickers out of action on a bye, so […]

Ravens vs Saints Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Jarvis Landry, Andy Dalton, Taysom Hill, Kenyan Drake, Gus Edwards, Justice Hill

Welcome back RotoBallers to the final game of Week 9, and our Monday Night Football matchups analysis article. It's been a wild week of NFL and fantasy football action filled with big performances, new players emerging, and injuries. Hopefully, you're on the verge of winning your matchups (or already have). Now we get one more […]

DeMarcus Robinson Questionable For Monday Night

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (groin) missed practice on Saturday and is officially listed as questionable for Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints. Although Robinson will likely be a game-time decision, it's far from ideal that he downgraded to a non-participant to close out the week of practices. If Robinson is somehow able […]

Isaiah Likely Aims To Duplicate Week 8 Performance

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely finished with six catches for 77 yards during the Week 8 win over the Bucs. Even better, he scored his first career touchdown. The rookie is hoping to duplicate that performance on Monday night versus the New Orleans Saints. There's a strong possibility he'll remain involved, mainly with Rashod […]

Devin Duvernay May Be Preferred Receiving Option In Week 9

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay has had a better year than most anticipated. He's already amassed four touchdowns, surpassing his total from last season. Rashod Bateman (foot) is out for the remainder of the year, so Duvernay was expected to see an uptick in attention from Lamar Jackson. However, with Mark Andrews (knee/shoulder) and […]

Kenyan Drake A Flex Option In Week 9

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake had 119 yards and a touchdown off 10 touches during the Week 6 loss to the Giants. Since then, he's logged 18 carries for 67 yards. However, Gus Edwards (hamstring) isn't expected to suit up in Week 9 versus the New Orleans Saints, so Drake will likely be the […]

Lamar Jackson Remains A Must-Start Despite Hobbled Offense

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson accounted for 12 touchdowns in the first three weeks of the 2022-23 campaign. However, he's totaled only five in as many games since then. The signal-caller has an uphill battle to produce in Week 9 versus New Orleans. Rashod Bateman (foot) is done for the year, while Gus Edwards (hamstring) […]

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 9

Welcome to Week 9 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. As the year goes on, the PPGA metric will become more and more predictive. Another important data point to be aware of is the injury report. Defenses missing key secondary pieces are far more susceptible to giving up ceiling games than units that are healthy. Offensive […]

Mark Andrews, Gus Edwards Doubtful For Monday Night

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle, shoulder) and running back Gus Edwards (hamstring) are both listed as doubtful to play on Monday night against the New Orleans Saints. Andrews has just three catches for 33 yards in the last two games while playing through injuries, but it looks like he'll be rested in Week […]

NFL Rookies to Watch for Fantasy Football Week 9 Including Brian Robinson, Drake London, Romeo Doubs, Isaiah Likely

The 2022 rookie class took a big hit recently when Jets running back Breece Hall tore his ACL in Week 7, ending his season. Even so, New York still had another standout rookie performer last week; wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught seven passes for 115 yards. Other rookies, like Tyler Allgeier, Greg Dulcich, and Isaiah […]

Demarcus Robinson Limited On Friday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (groin) logged a limited practice on Friday. The wideout is dealing with a groin injury, although his status for Monday night's matchup versus New Orleans is up in the air. Robinson looked good during the Week 8 win over the Bucs, finishing with six catches for 64 yards, his […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 9 - Marcus Mariota, Tyler Allgeier and Terrace Marshall Jr.

After a brutal Week 7 that stole many weekly fantasy contributors from our lineup, Week 8 was much more kind. There were some injury scares, but we escaped in relatively good shape. Hopefully, that holds up moving forward. Even without the injuries, Week 9 is already taking away plenty of our usual starters.  There are […]

Mark Andrews, Gus Edwards Still Missing From Practice

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (ankle, shoulder) and running back Gus Edwards (hamstring) missed practice for the second straight day this week on Friday. Both players could return to practice on Saturday and be questionable to play on Monday night against the New Orleans Saints, but they're shaping up to be shaky fantasy options […]

J.K. Dobbins 3-4 Weeks Away From Returning

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said running back J.K.

Baltimore Ravens WR Rashod Bateman's foot injury took a turn for the worse after suiting up for last Thursday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
