Philip Rivers Continues To Roll
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers showed no signs of fatigue by moving his game to London this Sunday.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams did something no Charger has done in 17 years.

Los Angeles Chargers defensive tackle Corey Liuget took it to rookie Baker Mayfield last week, and he'll be licking his chops for the chance to tee off on Marcus Mariota in London.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams blew up against Cleveland last week, but owners shouldn't fall for the sweet hope of repeat success. Williams is going up against a Tennessee defense this week that has made a living out of limiting big plays. Over the last four weeks, the Titans haven't surrendered a single […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoKeenan Allen Facing Stingy Secondary
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen has been Philip Rivers' go-to guy this season, but this week's matchup may be a rough one for him. Tennessee's secondary isn't considered anything special in the league, but they've turned it up recently. Over the last four weeks, they've been masters at limiting the big plays, allowing […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoAustin Ekeler May Get Bottled Up
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler is a big play waiting to happen at any time, but he's got a surprisingly customized matchup waiting for him this week. One of Ekeler's favorite ways of doing damage is as a sneaky receiver coming out of the backfield, allowing him the space to juke and jive […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoPhilip Rivers Facing A Strong Defense
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has been off to one of the best starts of his career, but he'll have his work cut out for him across the pond. In London this week, Rivers will have to square off against a Titans defense that is allowing the seventh fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoCaleb Sturgis Fully Participates In Practice
Los Angeles Chargers kicker Caleb Sturgis was a full participant in practice on Friday after being limited all week. Sturgis missed last week's game with an injured quad, and he's considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans. This leaves fantasy owners in a bit of a lurch because Mike Badgley stepped in and was […]

Los Angeles Chargers star running back Melvin Gordon was held out of practice on Friday with a hamstring issue, according to Melissa Stark of the NFL Network, but he has not been added to the injury report.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoMike Badgley Kicks Perfectly For Chargers
Los Angeles Chargers backup kicker Mike Badgley may have just won the starting kicking job. After starting kicker Casey Sturgis was unable to go on Sunday, Badgley stepped in and couldn't have done it any better.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoTyrell Williams Hauls In Two TDs
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams has been one of the victims of circumstance in a Chargers offense that is overflowing with weapons, but he was one of the main attractions on Sunday against Cleveland.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen snagged four passes and carried the ball four times to tally up 103 total yards from scrimmage against the Browns on Sunday.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoAustin Ekeler Explosive But Fails To Score
Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler had another top-notch performance by racing his way to 60 yards on just seven carries, but he was unable to get into the end zone on a day where he was overshadowed by Melvin Gordon. Even though Gordon averaged more than 7.0 YPC, Ekeler still topped him by […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoPhilip Rivers Lets The Run Game Seize The Day
Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers has been getting a little traction in the early MVP chatter, but he didn't have much to do in Week 6 against the Browns. Rivers went 11-for-20 for 207 yards and a couple touchdowns, one of which came on an incredible catch by Tyrell Williams on an ill-advised throw […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoMelvin Gordon Destroys Browns
Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon was an absolute monster on Sunday as he ripped the Cleveland Browns for 132 yards on the ground, 18 yards through the air, and three touchdowns. Gordon averaged a ridiculous 7.3 YPC as he still hasn't reached 20 carries in a game this season, and he basically ran […]

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Frank Clark is on a tear. Clark was all over the field in London on Sunday as he hit Oakland quarterback Derek Carr three times, notching 2.5 more sacks and forcing two fumbles.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaron Brown hadn't been targeted in weeks, but that didn't mean quarterback Russell Wilson had forgotten about him.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoDavid Moore Makes Another Highlight-Reel Catch
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore continued his star turn in Week 6 as he snagged an acrobatic touchdown catch in the back of the end zone against Oakland.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoTyler Lockett Finds Pay Dirt Again
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett kept his strong season going by snagging another touchdown in Week 6. He now has four touchdowns this season, giving him the most he's had in a single season since his rookie year. Unfortunately, that's the end of the good news as Lockett was the man left out in […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoRashaad Penny Resurrected For Raiders Game
It turns out rumors of Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny's demise were exaggerated. Thought to be firmly in the No. 3 spot on the depth chart, Penny shockingly racked up more carries than Mike Davis in London on Sunday. Penny still only carried the ball nine times while starter Chris Carson did the heavy […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoMike Davis Mostly Absent In Week 6
Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis was thought to be in a pretty solid timeshare with Chris Carson, but he looked like a bit of a forgotten commodity on Sunday against Oakland. Davis was limited to just six carries and one target out of the backfield, slotting him not only behind Carson but behind supposed […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoChris Carson Works As Lead Back In London
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson looked like the lead back once again in Week 6 as he was given 14 carries against the Raiders. Unfortunately, he was bottled up on most of them and only finished with 59 yards for the day. He did have a couple of impressive runs that featured some slick […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoDoug Baldwin Has Better Game, Hurts Elbow
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin got back into the swing of things in merry old England by hauling in six passes for 91 yards, including a massive 42-yard gainer.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoRussell Wilson Throws Three TDs Again
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was at it again in Week 6. Wilson guided the Seahawks through a thrashing of the Raiders in London, throwing for 222 yards and three touchdowns for the second straight week. The game was pretty much in Seattle's pocket right from the start, allowing Wilson time to complete 73% of […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoDavid Moore Is Seattle's Surprise
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore isn't supposed to be seeing the field, much less be a real target other teams need to prepare to face. Moore made the roster by the skin of his teeth, and he was supposed to be buried in the depth chart behind the likes of Tyler Lockett, Doug Baldwin, […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoTyler Lockett Should Have Another Good Game
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett has been the model of consistency for the Seahawks passing game so far, and he should continue his breakout season in England. Lockett has hauled in touchdowns in four of the five games this season, and he has yet to be held under 50 yards receiving. While he's not […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoNick Vannett Expected to Play
Seattle Seahawks tight end Nick Vannett has been sidelined much of this week due to a lingering back injury, but head coach Pete Carroll told reporters on Friday that he expects Vannett to play on Sunday.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoRussell Wilson Deserves Strong Consideration In Week 6
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson went an entire game without a single rushing attempt last week for the first time in his career, but he still threw three TDs on the day to keep himself fantasy relevant.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoMike Davis Should Rip The Raiders
Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis took second billing against the Rams, and he'll likely reprise that role in London, but that didn't prevent him from finding paydirt. Davis scored again last week against LA, giving him three touchdowns in his last two games, and he's an odds-on favorite to do it again this week. […]
