Chris Carson Tops 100 Yards For Third Straight Game
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson carried the ball 24 times on Sunday, tallying 124 yards and a touchdown.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoRussell Wilson Efficiently Wins Again
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had another fantastic day on Sunday as he not only led Seattle to their third road win, but he also upped his total to 14 passing touchdowns while still remaining free of interceptions.

Billy Stonick 5 years agoZiggy Ansah Coming Into His Own
Seattle Seahawks defensive lineman Ziggy Ansah seems to be fitting in, and head coach Pete Carroll is excited about the future for Ansah and the rest of his defensive line. Carroll told reporters this week that he feels like his front guys are on the verge of breaking out because while they haven't been tallying […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoWill Dissly Could Have A Massive Week
Seattle Seahawks tight end Will Dissly was drafted to block, and it turned out he could catch. He's now been fully integrated into Seattle's offense, and this week could be huge for him. Dissly specializes in working the middle of the field, and Cleveland has really struggled to defend that area. Last time he faced […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoD.K. Metcalf Is The Ultimate Home Run Threat
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D.K. Metcalf is the epitome of the deep threat that can strike at any time. Metcalf caught a wide-open pass off a busted coverage last week to score his second touchdown of the season, and at 22.3 yards per reception, Metcalf easily leads the league in the category. The problem is […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoTyler Lockett Leads League In Catch Rate
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett made his owners proud against the Rams when he made a phenomenal toe-tapping catch in the back corner of the end zone last week, but otherwise, he was pretty quiet once again. Lockett was only targeted four times against the Rams, but the TD gave him plenty of points […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoChris Carson Should See Plenty Of Action
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns, and head coach Pete Carroll told reporters that he's fine. On top of that, Carson will likely be one of the central pieces of Seattle's offense once again. Carson proved critical last week against the Rams, and with Cleveland […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoRussell Wilson Looks To Continue Dominance
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson will take the field on Sunday as the top QB in the fantasy game, and he'll be looking to do whatever it takes to bring home another win. Wilson's thrown for multiple touchdowns in four of the five games he's played this season, and this weekend's matchup will have Wilson […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoChase McLaughlin Expected To Start Again
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin is expected to draw the start once again in Week 6 as kicker Michael Badgley is doubtful due to his groin issue. McLaughlin made two of three field goals last week, and he'll probably get a shot or two again this week. Unfortunately, he's not a long-term play and […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoUchenna Nwosu Garners Praise From Coaches
Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Uchenna Nwosu racked up his first sack of the season against the Broncos last week, and sure enough, coaches were singing his praises this week. Defensive coordinator Gus Bradley told the media that Nwosu has been impressive in taking on more of a pass rushing role with defensive end Melvin Ingram […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoKeenan Allen Looks To Repeat 2018
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen will be looking to recreate the magic from last season when he faces the Steelers this weekend. Allen demolished Pittsburgh's secondary last year when he tallied 14 catches for 148 yards and a touchdown, and he'll hope to do similar damage this year. Obviously, there's risk associated with […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoMike Williams Is A Risky Choice
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is a real hit-or-miss play this week, and there are solid arguments to be made for both sides. Williams could completely bust this week because LA is facing a Steelers Defense that has been very stingy over the last four weeks, and Williams is usually a ways down […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoAustin Ekeler Should Get Plenty More Chances
Los Angeles Chargers running back/pass-catching extraordinaire Austin Ekeler will likely see a whole lot of opportunities again this week. Ekeler caught a whopping 15 passes last week against the Broncos, and with LA squaring off against a hard-nosed Pittsburgh defense, expect Philip Rivers to use Ekeler as an easy out once again. That said, there […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoMelvin Gordon Faces A Tough Task
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon will get his second shot at game speed on Sunday, but he'll have his hands full against a Pittsburgh defense that has been on fire. The deck is stacked against him as Gordon looked rusty in his first appearance, his offensive line is bad and injured, and the […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoPhilip Rivers Facing A Hot Defense
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is set to square off against a Steelers Defense that has been on point recently. While Pittsburgh is 1-4, they've allowed just 7.54 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in the last two weeks, including a match-up with Lamar Jackson. Rivers is obviously a well-versed veteran with an abundance of […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoChase McLaughlin Makes A Pair Of FGs
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Chase McLaughlin did pretty well in his first action with the team on Sunday. McLaughlin got off to a rough start when his first field goal attempt as a Charger was tipped at the line of scrimmage and fell well short of the uprights, but he composed himself and knocked two […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoDesmond King Returns Punt For TD
Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Desmond King provided one of the only bright spots for Chargers fans on Sunday afternoon. At the end of the third quarter, King hauled a Broncos punt through traffic around his own 40-yard line and broke free. He roasted a pair of Broncos in a foot race and crossed the goal […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoKeenan Allen Shut Down By Denver
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen was completely held in check by the Denver Broncos Defense on Sunday. Allen tallied four catches for just 18 yards, and 17 yards of that came on his first two catches of the game. It was clear that Denver made a point of removing Allen from the game, […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoMike Williams Catches Six Passes Against Broncos
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams got a boost in his production on Sunday since Keenan Allen was blanketed throughout the day, and he was able to haul in six passes in the loss. Unfortunately, that was less than half the times he was targeted, but it was still good for 74 yards receiving. […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoAustin Ekeler Racks Up 15 Catches
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler was pushed aside for Melvin Gordon this week, but after Gordon proved to be ineffective on the ground, the team turned back to Ekeler to keep them in the game. He proved up to the task. While Ekeler only carried the ball three times for seven yards on […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoMelvin Gordon Looked Rusty In First Game Back
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon got his first crack on Sunday, and he certainly looked like he hadn't played any football in months. Gordon carried the ball 12 times for just 31 yards, and he regularly struggled to make any headway through the line. The coaching staff and teammates seemed excited about Gordon's […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoPhilip Rivers Throws Two INTs Against Denver
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has really struggled against the Broncos over the last two seasons. For the third straight game against Denver, Rivers threw a pair of interceptions. The Chargers lost, and poor play by Rivers played a pretty big role in that. Rivers averaged just 4.4 yards per attempt in the game, […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoJoey Bosa Looks To Pad Sack Total
Los Angeles Chargers defensive lineman Joey Bosa was able to land half a sack last week, but he'll look to add to his total against Joe Flacco and the Broncos this weekend. The Broncos have given up 11 sacks so far this year, including an atrocious performance against the Packers two weeks ago where Flacco […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoKeenan Allen Facing A Tough Week
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen was leading the league in receiving yards after four weeks, but he's got a tough game in Week 5. Allen will be squaring off against the Denver Broncos and top cornerback Chris Harris Jr. Historically, Allen has struggled against Denver, and he only averaged 76 yards receiving in […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoJustin Jackson Doubtful For Sunday
Los Angeles Chargers running back Justin Jackson is doubtful due to his lingering calf injury. While Jackson is officially listed as doubtful, he hasn't practiced all week, and the team is welcoming back Melvin Gordon after his absence, so there's no real pressure to get Jackson out on the field. Even if he were to […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoTroymaine Pope Falls Out Of Rotation
A week after he got 10 carries against the Dolphins, Los Angeles Chargers running back Troymaine Pope is likely bound for the bench. The return of Melvin Gordon pushes Pope into the No. 3 slot for this week's game against the Broncos, and the team is expected to balance carries between Austin Ekeler and Gordon […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoPhilip Rivers May Underperform In Week 5
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers may not put up huge numbers in Week 5, but it's probably not going to be because of his play. It will likely be more related to Denver's weakness to the run. So far, Denver's defense has been one of the worst in the league against the run, and […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoJason Myers Goes 1-For-2 On Field Goals
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers got his first cracks from 40-plus yards on Thursday, and he missed his first one. A 48-yarder got pushed a little bit to the right just before halftime. Myers had been called in to kick in hopes that the team could go up two scores on LA, but it was […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoJadeveon Clowney, Tedric Thompson Come Up Huge
A week after he snagged an interception and took it to the house, Seattle Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney came up big again. This time, he stripped and recovered a fumble from LA running back Todd Gurley, bailing Seattle out when it looked like the Rams were about to hang another touchdown on them. It […]
Billy Stonick 5 years agoDavid Moore Slips In For A Touchdown
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore finally got in on the action on Thursday night as he juked his way into the end zone on a screen play. It was only his third catch of the season, and it seemed relatively pedestrian compared to the acrobatic grabs that garnered headlines for him last year. At […]
