Alex Smith Efficient In Win Over Steelers
Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith played well in Pittsburgh, but didn't light up the scoreboard for fantasy managers. Smith went 31-for-46 passing for 296 yards and a touchdown and didn't turn the ball over while knocking off the previously undefeated Steelers. It was the exact game the Football Team needed from their QB, but […]

The Los Angeles Angels have traded for Cincinnati Reds closer Raisel Iglesias, according to a Twitter post by the Angels.

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard was out of sync with QB Colt McCoy as Shepard made just one catch for 22 yards despite six targets. This was Shepard's lowest target total since before he returned from injury in Week 7. The Giants only passed for 105 yards on the day so hopefully, Daniel […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoGiants Defense Plays Strong Game In Seattle
The New York Giants Defense played one of their best games of the season in a road win over Seattle. The Giants sacked Russell Wilson five times with cornerback Darnay Holmes adding an interception of the Seahawks QB. New York would add a fumble recovery to put a bow on a nice day for fantasy […]

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate caught all four of his targets for 30 yards in a win in Seattle Sunday. Tate's four catches were tied for the team-lead with Evan Engram as they were the only Giants to catch more than one pass. Hopefully for the Giants pass catchers, Daniel Jones (hamstring) can […]

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram led the Giants with eight targets which he turned into four catches for 32 yards, both team-highs.

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano made his only field goal attempt and missed his lone extra-point in a win over the Seahawks on Sunday. Gano hasn't missed a field goal since Week 2 and is now 6-for-6 on 40-plus yard kicks in his last four games. Despite his accuracy, Gano shouldn't be started unless […]

New York Giants running back Alfred Morris rushed eight times for 39 yards and a touchdown in a road win over the Seahawks. Morris added a six-yard touchdown catch on his only target in the passing game. Despite the good game, Morris remains an unreliable fantasy option. He had half the carries Wayne Gallman did […]

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman led the charge for the offense in a big road win over the Seahawks on Sunday. Gallman turned 16 carries into 135 yards (8.4 YPC) as the Giants faced a run-heavy game-script and fed their lead back. Despite the impressive yardage total, fantasy managers can only wonder what […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoDarius Slayton Not Involved In Win Versus Seahawks
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has been playing fewer snaps as the season moves on and was a non-factor in the win in Seattle on Sunday. Slayton caught his lone target for a measly 14 yards as New York relied mainly on the ground-game with backup QB Colt McCoy starting. This isn't to […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoColt McCoy Manages Giants To Road Win
New York Giants quarterback Colt McCoy played efficiently and made enough plays when needed to help the Giants earn a big road victory in Seattle. McCoy completed 13 of his 22 passing attempts (59%) for 105 yards, one touchdown, and one interception that wasn't entirely his fault as it bounced off Evan Engram's hands and […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoTerry McLaurin A Locked-In WR1 Despite Tough Matchup
Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been one of the most consistent fantasy options and should be locked-into starting lineups despite a tough matchup in Pittsburgh. McLaurin has seven catches in five of his last six games and has at least 74 yards in every game in that span. On the season, McLaurin […]

Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoDarius Slayton Not Trustworthy Despite Good Matchup
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has been a boom-or-bust option for fantasy all season and is a risky start despite a good matchup in Seattle. Slayton's targets have been sporadic with a season-high of 11 targets and a season-low of one target. He's eclipsed 90 yards thrice, but has also been held under […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoSterling Shepard Has A Good Matchup In Week 13
New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard has been the team's top receiver since coming back from a toe injury in Week 7 and will look to stay hot against a beatable Seahawks secondary. Shepard has at least six catches in every game since Week 7 and he's been the lone trustworthy Giants receiver in […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoEvan Engram Remains A TE1 Versus Seattle
New York Giants tight end Evan Engram has been the top pass-catcher in the offense over the last month and will look to keep that momentum going in a road date with the Seahawks. Engram has nine-plus targets in four of his last five games and put up a season-high 129 yards last week. New […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoGraham Gano A Risky Fantasy Option In Week 13

Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoGiants Defense Not Recommended In Week 13

Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoAlfred Morris, Dion Lewis Off The Fantasy Radar
New York Giants running backs Alfred Morris and Dion Lewis have split time as the backup to Wayne Gallman and neither has seen enough work to trust in fantasy. Morris has been the change-of-pace runner, but is yet to see double-digit carries in a game and has just one target on the season. Lewis, on […]
Mike Schwarzenbach 4 years agoWayne Gallman A Solid Start Versus Seahawks
New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman has seen his touches increase in five straight weeks and has burst into must-start status in fantasy as the lead back for the G-Men. It's unlikely that Gallman will handle more touches than the 27 he had last week, but with starting quarterback Daniel Jones (hamstring) unlikely to play […]
