Matt Ryan Throws Three Picks

This was by far one of the QB's worst performances of the season and he now has not thrown for over 300 yards in the past six games. In addition, he has […...

Younghoe Koo A Strong Option In Week 14

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo is a stellar option this week against the Chargers. On the season, Koo has gone 32-for-33 on field-goal attempts. He has gone 7-for-7 in attempts of over 50 yards. In addition, he has gone 23-for-26 in extra-point attempts. The Chargers allow the ninth-most fantasy points to kickers, making Koo a […...

Falcons Defense Should Be On Benches In Week 14

The Atlanta Falcons Defense is not a viable starting option this week against the Chargers. The unit has allowed at least 20 points in three of the past four games. Though Justin Herbert and company were shut out by the Patriots last week, the rookie signal-caller is more than capable of producing. In seven of […...

Hayden Hurst A Low-End TE1 In Week 14

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst is currently dealing with an ankle injury and his status for Sunday's game remains questionable. If he suits up, he would be a low-end TE1. Overall, Hurst has been somewhat inconsistent this season. In the past three games, he has had a 48-yard performance sandwiched between performances where he […...

Russell Gage A Flex Play In Week 14

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Russell Gage is a flex play, at best, in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Gage has quietly put up decent numbers the past few weeks, posting at least 50 yards in two of the past three games. He has also seen at least eight targets in two of the […...

Calvin Ridley A WR1 Against Chargers

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley is a WR1 for Week 14. The WR had five receptions for 108 yards on 10 targets last week against a stellar Saints Defense.

Julio Jones A WR1 For Week 14

Last week, Jones delivered a solid performance by hauling in six reception for 94 yards on 10 targets against a strong Saints Defense. When […...

Todd Gurley II A Risky Play

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II is a risky play this week against the Chargers. The RB is dealing with a knee injury and it remains unclear whether he can shoulder a huge load in Week 14. In the past two games, Gurley has had a season-low 16 and 26 rush yards along with […...

Matt Ryan A High QB2 In Week 14

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is a high-end QB2 this week against the Chargers. The veteran has had at least 220 passing yards in all but one game this season and continues to showcase his terrific talent. Though the numbers usually vary each week, Ryan has been very effective. Last week, he had 273 yards […...

Wil Lutz A Starting Option

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz is a solid starting option this week. Though he missed a field goal last week, Lutz is 20-for-23 on field-goal attempts and 41-for-41 on extra-point attempts on the season. The kicker's reliability is his greatest strength and his numbers show for it. The Eagles allow the 10th-most points to […...

Saints Defense A Strong Start In Week 14

The New Orleans Saints Defense is a strong play this week against the Eagles. This unit has been on fire recently and has recorded 12 total sacks in the past three games. They have also allowed 16 points or less in the last five games, including three games in which they allowed only single-digit points. […...

Jared Cook A Risky Start

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook is a risky start this week against the Eagles. The TE had a modest week last week by getting three receptions for 28 yards and a score on five targets. Nevertheless, Cook only had one reception for six yards on five targets total in the three games prior […...

Emmanuel Sanders Doesn't Have Much Upside

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders should be considered nothing more than a low-end flex piece this week against Philadelphia. Sanders has been very inconsistent this season and has recorded single-digit yards in two of the past four games. Overall, though he is capable of great games, he is also capable of going cold […...

Michael Thomas A Low-End WR1 Against Eagles

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas continues to remain hobbled by an ankle injury. Nevertheless, there is no indication he is in jeopardy of missing this week's game and remains a great starting option. Even with Taysom Hill under center, the WR has gotten at least nine receptions, 11 targets, and 104 yards in […...

Latavius Murray An RB3 Against Eagles

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray is an RB3/flex option for Week 14 against the Eagles. Murray managed only five carries for 17 yards last week but had posted at least 49 yards in the three games prior to that. Overall, the back has seen double-digit carries and gotten at least 47 rushing yards […...

Alvin Kamara A Low-End RB1 In Week 14

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is a low-end RB1 this week. Kamara posted a season-high 88 rushing yards last week on 15 carries. The RB now has at least 45 rushing yards in the past three games along with two rushing touchdowns. What's concerning is that the dual-threat back only has seven total […...

Taysom Hill A Low-End QB1 In Week 14

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill is a low-end QB1 against the Eagles this week. In his three starts the past few weeks, Hill has displayed his versatile skills by thriving in both the passing and rushing game. Last week, the QB posted 232 passing yards with two touchdowns and 14 carries for 83 yards. […...

Deeper League Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14

The fantasy playoffs may be starting for many leagues, which means now is the time to get your team prepared for a hopeful deep playoff run.

Jared Cook Hauls In Touchdown

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook had three receptions for 28 yards and a score on five targets in Week 13. Cook had a somewhat decent performance though it's worth noting the TE had six total yards in the three games prior to Week 13. Given his inconsistency and overall modest numbers this season, […...

Tre'Quan Smith Has Touchdown

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith finished Week 13 with three receptions for 42 yards and a score on six targets. In the three weeks prior to Week 13, Smith had a grand total of two receptions for 30 yards on four targets. The WR is generally not much of a big factor on […...

Emmanuel Sanders Has 39 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders hauled in five receptions for 39 yards on six targets in the Week 13 win over the Falcons. In the past five games, the WR has only gotten over 40 yards once. The passing attack is not that explosive with Taysom Hill under center and Michael Thomas is […...

Michael Thomas Has 105 Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas ended Week 13 with nine receptions for 105 yards on 11 targets. Thomas is the only reliable receiver on this Saints offense and has produced even without Drew Brees under center. In two of the past three games, the talented wideout has gotten at least nine receptions, 11 […...

Latavius Murray Musters 17 Yards

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray fell back down to earth on Sunday after rushing for over 100 yards last week. Murray finished Week 13 with five carries for 17 yards and two receptions for zero yards on two targets. The RB had his lowest number of carries since Week 2 and posted his […...

Alvin Kamara Rushes For Season-High 88 Yards

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara had 15 rushes for 88 yards and a score along with two receptions for nine yards on three targets in Sunday's win over Atlanta.

Taysom Hill Excels Against Falcons Again

New Orleans Saints quarterback Taysom Hill was terrific in his second showing against the Falcons, finishing the game by going 27-for-37 for 232 yards and two touchdowns along with getting 14 rushes for 83 yards. Hill continues to prove his value in both the rushing and passing game but instead excelled with his arm on […...

Randy Bullock Better Left On Bench

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Randy Bullock is better left on the bench this week. The kicker is coming off a miserable performance just a couple of weeks ago with two missed field goals and a missed extra point. On the season, Bullock has gone for 21-for-25 in field goals and 23-for-24 in extra points. The Dolphins […...

Bengals Defense Not Worth Starting

The Cincinnati Bengals Defense is not worth starting this week against a Dolphins squad that has a capable QB in Ryan Fitzpatrick. In nine of 11 games this season, this unit has allowed at least 20 points and features no elite names. Add in the fact that this unit ranks near the bottom of the […...

Drew Sample Not A Starting Option

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Drew Sample is not a starting option this week. Sample has gotten 40 and 29 yards along with nine total targets the past two weeks, but his role has been inconsistent all season. Look no further than several games where he posted little to no yards. Add in a backup QB […...

A.J. Green A Risky Play

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green is a very risky play this week. After a couple of solid games in October, Green has regressed. The WR has seen 17 targets in the past three games but has only managed four receptions for 41 yards total in those three games. In two of the past three […...

Tee Higgins A Flex In Week 13

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is a solid flex play this week against the Dolphins. Higgins has seen at least five targets in all 10 games played this season. He has also gotten at least 60 yards in six of 10 games. In the past two games, Higgins hasn't eclipsed more than 44 yards, […...
