Ka'imi Fairbairn Remains A Low-Upside Fantasy Option
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn is in the midst of the most accurate season of his career, as he's made 90% of his field goals and 100% of his extra points this year. But he ranks just 15th in fantasy scoring at the kicker position this season because of a lack of opportunities due to […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoNico Collins Has Deep-League Upside In Week 12
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins has seemingly taken over the No. 1 wide receiver role from Brandin Cooks over the last couple of weeks. On Sunday against the Dolphins, we'll see if that continues even after the Texans make a change at quarterback, as Kyle Allen is starting over Davis Mills. The Dolphins rank […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks Hoping To Get Boost From QB Change
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks has seen his usage trend down this season. After back-to-back weeks with double-digit targets to start the season, Cooks hasn't had more than seven in a game yet, and he's had four catches or fewer in five consecutive games. But there's a little hope this week, as the team […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDameon Pierce Looks To Bounce Back
Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce is coming off the worst game of his NFL career, as he was held to just eight rushing yards in a Week 11 loss to the Commanders. But considering Pierce had rushed for 80 or more yards in six of the past seven games before last week's disappointment, fantasy […]

Justin Carter 2 years agoKadarius Toney Injures Hamstring Against Chargers
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney exited Sunday night's game against the Chargers with a hamstring injury. He finished the game with no receptions. Toney was a popular waiver wire add since he was traded to KC, but it looks like his hamstring issues that plagued his time with the Giants have already popped […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoSkyy Moore Heavily Involved In Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore took advantage of the team's injuries at the position on Sunday night, finishing second on the team behind tight end Travis Kelce in both targets and receptions. Patrick Mahomes threw the ball Moore's way six times, with the rookie catching five of them for 63 yards. Keep an […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoTravis Kelce Hauls In Three Touchdowns
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught all three of quarterback Patrick Mahomes' touchdown passes on Sunday night against the Chargers, including the game-winner in the final minute of the contest. Overall, Kelce was targeted 10 times, catching six passes for 115 yards. At this point, there's not much to say about Kelce: he's […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoIsiah Pacheco Rushes For Over 100 Yards
Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Isiah Pacheco had the best 100-plus yard rushing game of his NFL career on Sunday night against the Chargers, carrying the ball 15 times for 107 yards. He wasn't targeted in the passing game. Pacheco looks like he's firmly claimed the lead back role in KC, as Jerick McKinnon […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoPatrick Mahomes Throws Three Touchdowns In Week 11 Win
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was 20-for-39 for 329 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He also added 23 rushing yards. Mahomes had his worst game of the year from a yardage perspective in the first meeting of these teams, but he threw for almost 100 more yards […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoNico Collins Targeted Seven Times In Loss
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins tied for the team lead in targets on Sunday, with quarterback Davis Mills looking his way seven times in the loss to the Commanders. He caught five of them for 48 yards. It looks like Collins has overtaken Brandin Cooks as the No. 1 receiver in Houston, but this […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks Leads Team In Receiving Yards In Week 11 Loss
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks caught a team-high 70 yards in Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders, but his low volume continues to be a concern. Cooks had just three receptions, and he now hasn't had more than four catches in a game since Week 4. Going forward, Cooks is a risky WR3/4 play […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDameon Pierce Shut Down By Commanders
Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce was a non-factor in Houston's loss to the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Pierce entered the game with 90 or more rushing yards in five of the last six games, but he ended the day with a career-low eight yards on the ground. He also added nine receiving yards on […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDavis Mills Picked Off Twice Against Washington
Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills was 19-for-33 for 169 yards in Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders. He was picked off twice, but he did manage to add a rushing touchdown, finishing with 10 rushing yards on five carries. Mills has been a non-entity in the run game this season and there's no reason to […]

Justin Carter 2 years agoKadarius Toney Has Upside In Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney scored his first NFL touchdown last week against the Jaguars. Now, with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman both out, Toney should see a full workload this week against the Los Angeles Chargers. Toney's a dynamic player who can make things happen with the ball in his hands, and […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoTravis Kelce Remains Top Fantasy Tight End Play In Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce had his worst game of the season in Week 2 against the Chargers, catching five passes for 51 yards. It's the only time this season that Kelce has failed to either record 98 receiving yards or a touchdown. But if 10.1 points in full PPR is his floor, […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoPatrick Mahomes Remains Top Fantasy Play In Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw for a season-low 235 yards when he faced the Chargers back in Week 2. That's a slight concern heading into the rematch this week, but Mahomes is on a hot streak right now, throwing for over 300 yards in four consecutive games. Last week, he tossed four touchdowns […]

This is it: the Formula 1 season comes to an end on Sunday in Abu Dhabi. And while Max Verstappen has already locked up the title, the battle for second place is still on, as Sergio Perez and Charles Leclerc are in a dead heat. Last week, we finally saw a team that wasn't Red Bull […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoHouston Texans Defense Has Some Appeal In Week 11
The Houston Texans defense hasn't been the most reliable fantasy defense, but the team has at least three sacks in three consecutive games and gets to take on the Washington Commanders this week, who rank just 21st in the NFL in turnover differential. The Commanders rank 24th in scoring offense, so if there's ever a […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoKa'imi Fairbairn Is Low Upside Play In Week 11
Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn made three field goals in last week's loss to the New York Giants, his highest total since Week 2. The nature of this Texans offense just hasn't given Fairbairn a lot of opportunities, so while he's currently making a career-high 89.5% of his field goal attempts, the volume just isn't […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoNico Collins Is Risky Week 11 Play
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins returned last week after a two-game absence and caught his first touchdown of the season against the Giants. His 10 targets were his most of the season. It's possible that game was a sign that Collins has taken over as the team's No. 1 receiver, but in most fantasy […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks Has Low Upside In Week 11
Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks returned from a one-game absence last week, catching four of his seven targets for 37 yards. Entering Week 11 against the Commanders, Cooks is a tough player to trust in fantasy because of his inconsistency this season. He's found the end zone just once, and only has two games […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDameon Pierce Is Solid Play For Week 11
Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce has been Houston's only consistent fantasy option this season, something that should continue against the Commanders in Week 11. Pierce has 90 or more rushing yards in five of the last six games, and while the Commanders rank 12th in rushing yards allowed, Pierce's projected volume makes up for […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDavis Mills Is Risky Fantasy Option For Week 11
Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills is coming off of a productive outing in Week 10, throwing for a season-high 319 yards in a loss to the New York Giants. But considering Mills only has two games all season with over 300 yards and just four games with more than one touchdown pass, he remains a […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoSaturday the Savior? Colts Fantasy Football Outlook for Matt Ryan, Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman, Parris Campbell
The Indianapolis Colts are having a weird season. First, the team benched quarterback Matt Ryan for Sam Ehlinger, the kind of move that doesn't really make sense through the lens of "trying to win NFL football games." And then, the team fired head coach Frank Reich, and instead of replacing him with someone from the […]

The fantasy playoff are fast, fast approaching.

Justin Carter 2 years agoNico Collins Catches Touchdown In Week 10
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (groin) wasn't even a lock to play in Week 10 against the Giants, but he ended up leading the team in targets, as quarterback Davis Mills looked his way 10 times. He caught five of them for 49 yards, including the team's only touchdown. Collins might have overtaken Brandin […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoBrandin Cooks Quiet In His Return
After missing last week's game for personal reasons, Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks returned in Week 10 against the Giants to middling results. He had a touchdown wiped away by penalty, but otherwise didn't do much, catching four of his seven targets for 37 yards. He also had five rushing yards. Cooks definitely doesn't […]
