Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 14

Week 13 is nearly in the books, which (almost) universally indicates that it is time for the fantasy football playoffs. We have more than enough information at our fingertips to understand which teams to attack or to stay away from regarding the quarterback position. Given the win or go home format that comes with this […]

Giants Optimistic Daniel Jones Can Play In Week 14

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that he's "optimistic" that quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) can return in Week 14 against the Cardinals after sitting out the Week 13 upset win over the Seahawks. Jones will take part in Wednesday's walk-through practice, but the true test of his availability this weekend will come Thursday […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 14 Lightning Round

Week 13 went off without many key injuries or COVID-19 ripples, but there were many low-scoring performances and upsets across the league. We're approaching the stretch run and there's no holding back now. Let's hit those playoff weeks hot with the waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 14. This column is published early every week […]

Giants Optimistic That Daniel Jones Will Play This Week

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said the team will give quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) "every opportunity" to play in Week 14 against the Cardinals. There is optimism in the organization that Jones will be able to return after missing the Week 13 upset win over the Seahawks. Backup Colt McCoy effectively played the […]

Josh Adams (RB, NYJ) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The New York Jets had to turn to their backup plan for their backfield early in Week 13 when Frank Gore (concussion) went into concussion protocol after just one carry. Gore didn't return in the game and the team leaned heavily on Ty […]

Sterling Shepard Hauls In Just One Catch On Six Targets

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard was out of sync with QB Colt McCoy as Shepard made just one catch for 22 yards despite six targets. This was Shepard's lowest target total since before he returned from injury in Week 7. The Giants only passed for 105 yards on the day so hopefully, Daniel […]

Giants Defense Plays Strong Game In Seattle

The New York Giants Defense played one of their best games of the season in a road win over Seattle. The Giants sacked Russell Wilson five times with cornerback Darnay Holmes adding an interception of the Seahawks QB. New York would add a fumble recovery to put a bow on a nice day for fantasy […]

Golden Tate Makes Four Catches Versus Former Team

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate caught all four of his targets for 30 yards in a win in Seattle Sunday. Tate's four catches were tied for the team-lead with Evan Engram as they were the only Giants to catch more than one pass. Hopefully for the Giants pass catchers, Daniel Jones (hamstring) can […]

Evan Engram Leads Giants Pass-Catchers With 32 Yards

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram led the Giants with eight targets which he turned into four catches for 32 yards, both team-highs. Colt McCoy taking over at QB was brutal for the Giants pass-catchers with only Engram and Golden Tate recording more than one catch. Hopefully Daniel Jones (hamstring) can be back next […]

Graham Gano Quiet In Win Over Seahawks

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano made his only field goal attempt and missed his lone extra-point in a win over the Seahawks on Sunday. Gano hasn't missed a field goal since Week 2 and is now 6-for-6 on 40-plus yard kicks in his last four games. Despite his accuracy, Gano shouldn't be started unless […]

Alfred Morris Finds End Zone Twice In Seattle

New York Giants running back Alfred Morris rushed eight times for 39 yards and a touchdown in a road win over the Seahawks. Morris added a six-yard touchdown catch on his only target in the passing game. Despite the good game, Morris remains an unreliable fantasy option. He had half the carries Wayne Gallman did […]

Wayne Gallman Rolls Over Seahawks For 135 Yards

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman led the charge for the offense in a big road win over the Seahawks on Sunday. Gallman turned 16 carries into 135 yards (8.4 YPC) as the Giants faced a run-heavy game-script and fed their lead back. Despite the impressive yardage total, fantasy managers can only wonder what […]

Darius Slayton Not Involved In Win Versus Seahawks

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has been playing fewer snaps as the season moves on and was a non-factor in the win in Seattle on Sunday. Slayton caught his lone target for a measly 14 yards as New York relied mainly on the ground-game with backup QB Colt McCoy starting. This isn't to […]

Colt McCoy Manages Giants To Road Win

New York Giants quarterback Colt McCoy played efficiently and made enough plays when needed to help the Giants earn a big road victory in Seattle. McCoy completed 13 of his 22 passing attempts (59%) for 105 yards, one touchdown, and one interception that wasn't entirely his fault as it bounced off Evan Engram's hands and […]

Daniel Jones Officially Inactive For Week 13

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) is officially out for Sunday's contest against the Seattle Seahawks. Jones was doubtful ahead of the game, so fantasy managers should have already been preparing for Colt McCoy to get the start against a Seahawks Defense that has struggled in 2020. Is it bad enough to justify starting […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 13) - Targets and Avoids

Last week I railed against the referees, but after what this past week showed, some coaches were simply horrendous.

Week 13 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 12 saw some crazy high defensive point totals with Atlanta, Carolina, San Francisco, and Houston all scoring over 15 points. In fact, all of the top-10 units scored in double-figures, which is something I can't remember having happened in a while. The Raider's penchant for fumbles early in the season had me high on […]

Daniel Jones Not Expected To Play

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) is not expected to play on Sunday against the Seahawks. Jones is still recovering from a hamstring injury he sustained while scrambling during last week's game against the Bengals, though the team is optimistic about his Week 14 status. However, this means that Colt McCoy will get the […]
