Week 16 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
What a cluster Week 15 was. Not only did fantasy managers have to deal with countless Covid-19 cases, but three games were delayed adding even more intrigue.....or frustration. We haven't even gotten to the actual games yet. You know, the one where the Buccaneers were shut out and Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Leonard Fournette all left […]

Week 15 is finally in the books and for many, it's a sigh of relief. This past week may have been one of the most challenging fantasy weeks that I can remember. Week 7 when there were six teams on bye is another one that comes to mind, but between the number of injuries fantasy […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 16?
I can't recall a week – much less a playoff one – with as much craziness and randomness that Week 15 brought us and I for one am glad that it's over. For anyone who was able to advance in their playoff game despite all that's happened, a big kudos to you. To all of […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoIs Miles Sanders Playing Tonight? Is Jordan Howard Worth Picking Up?
It's been a tough season for Miles Sanders and fantasy managers who drafted him. It's really been a tale of two seasons for the Eagles' rushing game. In the first seven weeks of the season, they averaged 116 rushing yards per game. From Weeks 8–14, that average shot up to 211 yards per game. Since […]

The 49ers offense is known for having one of the best rushing attacks in the entire NFL. A rushing system so strong, head coach Kyle Shanahan has been able to plug and play just about anyone and get solid production out of them. They boast an excellent offensive line and a scheme that is incredibly […]

Josh Allen has been amazing once again this season. Through 14 weeks of the NFL season, he's averaging 24.39 points per game. That's not quite at his 2020 pace of 25.32, but he's right there. So far this season, he is the QB1 and the highest-scoring player in half-PPR scoring. Needless to say, he's been fantastic. […]

We have officially made it. We're here – the Fantasy Football Playoffs. 14 weeks of hard work will come down to the next three weeks. Three more games to claim your championship, and with it, bragging rights for the next year. It's an awesome feeling and congratulations to all of those who still have that […]

First off, congratulations to everyone who has made their fantasy playoffs with a special shout-out to those who managed to secure that all-important first-round bye. Just because you're in the playoffs and there are only a few weeks left doesn't mean fantasy managers should stop tinkering with their roster. Keep at it until that final […]

Congratulations to all of you still competing in your fantasy football playoffs! And to those of you fighting in the consolation bracket, while you may need to wait until 2022 to claim bragging rights, hopefully your consolation bracket comes with its own monetary reward to encourage teams to keep playing. At the end of the […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoWeek 14 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
For many, this is likely the last week of the regular season. One last hurrah. One last chance to claim a spot in the final dance. Every point and every position counts. Yes, even kickers. Possibly, especially the kicker. Now that we're into the month of December it's crucial fantasy managers pay attention to the […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoIs Deebo Samuel Injured or Is Deebo Samuel Playing This Week?
There's no way around it – injuries are the absolute worst when it comes to fantasy football. The only thing worse than injuries are the injuries that leave fantasy managers guessing all week long. Not that we ever want players to be hurt or that this silly, but awesome little game we play is more […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoWill Joe Burrow Playing This Week? Bengals QB Injury Update vs. 49ers
It's Week 14 and it's time to put up or shut up. Many of us out there are playing for our fantasy football playoff lives. Some of the lucky ones probably already have one of those elusive playoff spots wrapped up and are now fighting for the all-important first-round bye. Then there are some of […]

With just a few more weeks of the season, fantasy managers need to stay on their toes, especially at the tight end position unless you have one of the top-three studs. Four, if Waller is healthy. Even T.J. Hockenson cannot be considered a must-start, as we'll find out below. It's a position filled with land […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 14?
Fantasy managers have one more week to get their playoff rosters in order and if you're still fighting for a playoff spot, fantasy managers need to absolutely be treating this week's matchup as a win or go home contest. Fantasy managers should be keeping tabs on the standings in their leagues and the possible outcomes […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoWeek 13 Kicker Streamers and Starts – 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
There is always a player at every position who seems to come out of nowhere. Last year, it was James Robinson at running back and Logan Thomas at tight end. This happens every year, like clockwork. This year, we have Deebo Samuel at wide receiver.......and Nick Folk at kicker. He has been absolutely phenomenal. How […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoFinding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders
There are plenty of injuries fantasy managers need to stay on top of this week. Darren Waller and Cole Kmet both did not practice on Wednesday and Pat Freiermuth is still in the concussion protocol. All three could have big fantasy implications as fantasy managers are surely in win-or-go-home mode, so be sure to keep […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 13?
It's Week 13 and the injuries are really starting to pile up now. It's been a trend all season, but now in the playoff push, some of these injuries and waiver wire adds are going to end up being league winners. And if not league winners, certainly guys who are going to help decide who […]

As the season chugs along, it's important for fantasy managers to keep tabs on injuries across the different offenses in the NFL. That seems like common sense and it is really, but how many times do we think of paying attention to those things for kickers? Prior to Kyler Murray's sprained ankle, Matt Prater was […]

As fantasy football continues to grow in popularity there's a never-ending source of statistics and numbers to dissect a player's value. We often hear the moniker "knowledge is power", but it takes time to comb through all the data. Other positions' key stats are a bit easier and well-known. When it comes to tight ends, […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 12?
In most leagues, there are only four games left before the playoffs, so it's time fantasy managers start thinking about Weeks 15–17 if they have that luxury. This is about the time of the season where I want to start to look at playoff matchups on the waiver wire and aim big. This applies towards […]

Week 11 finally brought us the return of the Kansas City Chiefs' offense and with it a good game for Harrison Butker, who finished with 11 points. However, the No. 1 kicker from Week 11 was Zane Gonzalez of the Panthers. Maybe not coincidentally that lined up with the return of Christian McCaffrey, who at […]

We're officially to the playoff stretch! Hopefully if you've been following this series, it's helped you out with who to play at tight end, the worst position group in all of fantasy football. This series has touched on some of the bigger break-outs we've seen this year, including Dawson Knox who was fantastic prior to suffering […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who to Drop for Week 11?
The playoff stretch has officially started. Most leagues are now just four weeks out from the start of the fantasy playoffs and fantasy managers are getting down to the nitty-gritty. Tough decisions have to be made as injuries continue to pile up and unfortunately there are still four weeks of bye weeks fantasy managers need […]

Week 9 was almost the first week of the NFL season where everything in the fantasy world of tight ends was right until rookie Pat Freiermuth screwed everything up. Still, we saw George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Darren Waller finish No. 2, 3 and 4 respectively in half-PPR scoring. The rookie out of Penn State […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 10?
Welcome back Brandon Aiyuk! Allen Robinson showed signs of life with over 10 fantasy points this week! Justin Fields looked pretty good on Monday Night Football against the Steelers and it looks like Aiyuk is finally out of Shanahan's dog house. The cute thing about Shanahan's dog house with players is that the coach himself […]

Week 9... what an absolute cluster. The Buffalo Bills lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars, 9–6. The Broncos went and punched the Cowboys in the mouth and the Cowboys didn't even bother to put up a fight. It was quite the week so it only made sense that after a week of championing Greg Joseph and […]

Alright, people! If you're in a league with kickers, you need to be paying attention to kickers otherwise what are we even doing here? Greg Joseph is 59% rostered in ESPN leagues and just 32% in Yahoo! leagues. He's currently third in points per game among kickers with 10.6. Randy Bullock is fourth in points […]

What a lame NFL Trade Deadline. Fantasy managers everywhere were likely hoping for an Evan Engram trade or maybe an Eric Ebron trade. Both would have had monster fantasy implications. Sadly, the NFL Trade Deadline is just about one of the biggest sporting events that always disappoints. With absolutely no movement anywhere, fantasy status quos […]
Robert Lorge 3 years agoThe Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 9?
I feel the need to come clean on two players who have finally made my cut list – and one of them comes with an asterisk. I have been hesitant to include Odell Beckham Jr. or Allen Robinson on the Cut List despite their extremely poor play and I think I need to explain why. When […]

With all the byes across the league last week, fantasy managers should have been expecting some crazy outcomes. In that sense, it did not disappoint. When the Sunday games were done, the top-three kickers were Austin Seibert of the Detroit Lions, Graham Gano of the New York Giants, and Nick Folk of the New England […]
