NextGen Stats - Wide Receiver/Tight End Breakdowns and Takeaways

Okay, folks, I'm about to bring you bad news. If you're reading this it is because you're trying to get an edge over your league mates to beat them this weekend. That means you're here to get informed on what to do and how to tackle your week's most pressing decisions. The bad news: these […]

Mark Andrews Underwhelms Against Steelers

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews caught three of his six targets for 32 yards during the loss to the Steelers on Sunday. With J.K. Dobbins, Gus Edwards, and Lamar Jackson providing much of the team's offense utilizing the run, Andrews, along with Marquise Brown, was relegated to an afterthought. While this was a disappointing […]

Marquise Brown Scores A Touchdown On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown caught just one pass, which was a touchdown, during the loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday. Although Hollywood conceded receptions and targets to Willie Snead IV, Week 8 wasn't a total bust as he was able to find the end zone for the second time in the last three games. […]

Willie Snead IV Productive In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Willie Snead IV racked up five catches for 106 yards during the loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday. The veteran had caught more than two passes just once heading into Week 8, so his output against the Steelers was his best of the 2020 campaign thus far. While he may have another […]

Gus Edwards Impresses In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards finished with 16 carries for 87 yards and a touchdown during the loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday. Although the 25-year-old split carries with rookie J.K. Dobbins, he still made the most of his time on the field. With Mark Ingram II (ankle) expected to be out of the mix […]

J.K. Dobbins Leads Ravens In Rushing In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins finished Week 8 against the Steelers with 15 carries for 113 yards. He also added a catch for eight yards. With Mark Ingram II (ankle) out of the lineup, the rookie split touches with Gus Edwards, who had 16 attempts for 87 yards and a score. Ingram is expected […]

Lamar Jackson Has An Acceptable Outing In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson threw for 208 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions during the narrow loss to the Steelers in Week 8. He also added 16 carries for 65 yards. Despite the pair of picks, the 23-year-old still had an effective fantasy performance against one of the league's most efficient defensive units. While […]

Ronnie Stanley Out For The Rest Of The Year

Baltimore Ravens tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) will miss the remainder of the year, according to head coach John Harbaugh. The 26-year-old, who recently signed a five-year, $98.75 million extension, needed to be placed in an air cast in what was classified as a "severe ankle injury." Stanley is widely considered as one of the best […]

Matt Judon Ejected On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Matt Judon made contact with an official in Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and has been ejected from the game. The Steelers offense has struggled to get things going all day, but Judon not being on the field for the entire second half could deliver some positive results for quarterback Ben […]

Ronnie Stanley Carted Off Field

Baltimore Ravens left tackle Ronnie Stanley is being carted off the field with what appears to be a left leg injury. One of the best offensive linemen in the NFL, the Ravens rushing attack will take a hit if Stanley is out long term with this injury. We're unlikely to know much more before the […]

Marquise Brown Has Tough Week 8 Matchup

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown faces a tough matchup with the Steelers Defense in Week 8. Brown has just one touchdown reception this year and has been shut down at times, like in Week 3 against the Chiefs when he had just two receptions. But Brown has been targeted at least six times in […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 8

The Week 7 wide receiver matchup article was either feast or famine. Diontae Johnson absolutely crushed it, scoring twice on his way to finish as the No. 3 receiver on the week. Kenny Golladay went over 100 yards and Terry McLaurin scored, finishing as a WR1. On the other side of things, CeeDee Lamb, Gabriel Davis […]

Lamar Jackson Still A Top Option In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will be tasked with squaring off against the effective Steelers Defense in Week 8. Despite a decrease in fantasy output in 2020, the signal-caller has possibly the highest ceiling at the position, especially with the options available to him on the offensive side of the ball. In terms of his […]

J.K. Dobbins Has Upside In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins will potentially see an expanded role in Week 8 against the Steelers. With Mark Ingram II (ankle) expected to miss a week or more, the rookie will likely split carries with Gus Edwards II against a formidable Pittsburgh defensive unit. Although Edwards could see more carries, Dobbins may do […]

Mark Ingram II May Miss Multiple Weeks

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II (ankle) won't play in Week 8 against the Steelers and may also not be available to suit up against the Colts in Week 9. With the veteran battling a high-ankle sprain, an injury that usually requires multiple weeks to improve, fantasy managers may be forced to be without […]

Week 8 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 7 was relatively successful with seven correctly predicted top-10 defenses after the Los Angeles Rams strong effort on Monday night. Washington was a close call as they made my top-12, but I never thought the Cowboys offense would fall off the cliff as steeply as it did on Sunday, and both Arizona and Jacksonville […]

My Week 8 GPP Value Plays are coming on the heels of a pretty strong week from me. I "hit" on three of my four picks last week. But this week's slate is a little frustrating for me. I would love to suggest some Panthers, Eagles, or Buccaneers as value plays this week, but alas […]

NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Week 8 GPP Contests (DFS Tournaments)

There are quite a few "chalk" stacks I felt I needed to exclude from my Week 8 GPP DFS stack consideration set. Like most weeks, Kansas City is a chalky stack, but this week against the Jets they are nearly too easy. The addition of Carlos Dunlap will help Seattle, but that secondary has been […]
