Tom Brady Not Guaranteed To Stay In New England

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who will be a free agent in March, is far from a guarantee to re-sign with the Patriots. Brady played potentially his final home game as a member of the Patriots on Saturday when they lost to the Titans in the wild-card game. He didn't have a ton of […]

Rex Burkhead Registers 32 Receiving Yards In Loss

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead caught three passes for 32 yards in the team's 20-13 loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round. Six different players recorded a rush from the Patriots backfield but the team couldn't get anything going in the second half. Burkhead is a solid role player but rarely […]

Mohamed Sanu Catches One Pass Against Titans

New England Patriots wide receiver Mohamed Sanu caught only one pass for 11 yards in the team's loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round. Sanu was targeted five times but connected with quarterback Tom Brady only once. Sanu was acquired midseason to provide a big, veteran target for Brady to throw to. But […]

N'Keal Harry Catches Two Passes In Defeat

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry caught only two passes for seven yards in the team's 20-13 loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs. Harry added one rush for seven yards and was targeted seven times in the game. Harry has some intriguing size and has displayed an ability […]

Julian Edelman Scores Lone Touchdown In Loss

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman caught only three passes for 30 yards but rushed for a five-yard touchdown in the Patriots Wild Card loss to the Titans. Edelman simply has not been the same player in recent weeks and perhaps a series of injuries had finally caught up to him. Edelman compiled only […]

James White Leads Pats With 62 Receiving Yards

New England Patriots running back James White caught five passes for a team-high 62 yards in the team's disappointing loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round. The veteran also added a run for 14 yards in a game where the Patriots offense really struggled in the second half. After posting 12 total touchdowns […]

Sony Michel Tallies 70 Total Yards

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel carried the ball 14 times for 61 yards and added nine receiving yards in the team's 20-13 loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round. Michel averaged 4.4 yards per carry but the Patriots offense, once again, sputtered when it mattered most. It has been a very […]

Tom Brady's Pick-Six Ousts Patriots

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady completed 20 of 37 passes for 209 yards and one interception in the team's crushing 20-13 loss to the Titans in the Wild Card Round. Brady was crisp early, passing for 149 yards in the first half but the offense failed to punch in a touchdown from the 1-yard […]

Break The Slate: NFL DFS DraftKings Lineup Picks - Wild Card Round

Hi RotoBallers, and thanks for joining me here for the NFL Playoffs! Wild Card Weekend offers us a Thanksgiving-Day-like slate of four games spread over Saturday and Sunday. While this obviously limits our choices to a degree, it's a big enough slate that we can still find some ways to make our rosters unique. We'll […]

Julian Edelman Active Against Titans

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee, shoulder) is active for the wild-card game against the Titans on Saturday night. Linebacker Jamie Collins (shoulder) is also active, while cornerback Jason McCourty (groin) is inactive. Edelman has been far less than 100 percent in the last three weeks, and it's showed in his numbers. Still, […]

Mohamed Sanu Has Limited Upside Against Tennessee

New England Patriots receiver Mohamed Sanu has limited upside in the wild-card matchup against the Tennessee Titans this weekend. Despite playing more snaps than any other receiver in recent weeks, he has struggled to really make any highlight plays. Sanu has been more involved in the offense in the past few weeks, though, with 18 […]

Julian Edelman A Great Option For Wild-Card Weekend

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman is a great option for fantasy owners this weekend in DFS games. Edelman has struggled in recent weeks with injuries but reports are positive coming out of training camp, meaning he should be fully involved this week. Tom Brady has long relied on Edelman in important games, and […]

N'Keal Harry A Touchdown-Dependent Option This Week

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry is a touchdown-dependent option this week against the Tennessee Titans. Harry has established himself as a red-zone weapon, with his big frame and strong hands allowing him to win contested catches. However, his fantasy value is limited to when he is able to score, as he is yet […]

Phillip Dorsett Should Be Avoided This Week

New England Patriots wide receiver Phillip Dorsett should be avoided for this week's wild-card matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Dorsett was able to make a single catch against Miami last week for 50 yards, but he should be avoided this week. He is unlikely to be a reliable option for cash games, and there are […]

Matt LaCosse and Benjamin Watson Are Tough Plays This Week

New England Patriots tight ends Matt LaCosse and Benjamin Watson are tough plays for owners this week. Both players are getting an equal opportunity in routes run recently, and given that the Patriots have only had one game with a tight end scoring over eight PPR points this season, the position has become marginalized in […]

Rex Burkhead A Risky Option Saturday

New England Patriots running back Rex Burkhead should be involved vs the Titans Saturday, but will be a risky play with Sony Michel and James White also expected to see touches. Burkhead has taken a backseat to Michel over the last three weeks getting out-touched 60-24 in those games despite averaging almost a full yard […]

James White Should Be Involved Saturday

New England Patriots running back James White isn't the lead back for his team, but he has been the most consistent producer for fantasy owners and should be involved plenty in Saturday's wild-card matchup with Tennessee. White only had double-digit carries once this season but has made at least three catches in 13 of 15 […]

Sony Michel Should See Enough Work To Start

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel had a disappointing sophomore season for fantasy owners but will look to redeem himself in the playoffs starting on wild-card weekend against Tennessee. Michel only rushed for 912 yards this year on just 3.7 yards per carry but is trending upwards as the playoffs get underway. Michel out-touched […]

DFS Wide Receivers To Target In The Wild Card Round

In Week 17, John Brown was inactive and Robert Foster played in his place. Even though Foster played 98.4% of the snaps, he failed to haul in a single target and ended up with a goose egg. Instead, Duke Williams led the way for the Bills receivers, hauling in six passes for 108 yards. I turned […]

Tom Brady's Demise Is Real

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady heads into the 2020 playoffs as one of the weaker signal-callers of the remaining 12 teams. But the numbers show that the six-time Super Bowl champion, four-time Super Bowl MVP and three-time NFL MVP is declining rapidly at 42 years old. He has the second lowest passer rating (88.0) […]
