Chris Godwin A High-End WR2 Against Carolina

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (finger) faces a Panthers Defense that's been stingy against the pass in 2020. Godwin was a full participant in practice, meaning he should be close to 100 percent when he takes the field against Carolina's 17th-ranked pass defense. The veteran wideout has averaged seven targets per game in […]

Leonard Fournette Has Upside In Week 10

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette has the upper hand in this backfield ahead of a juicy matchup with the Panthers in Week 10. Fournette has out-snapped fellow back Ronald Jones II in each of the last three games and out-touched him in two of them. Most importantly, the former Jaguar has averaged 6.3 […]

Ronald Jones II A Flex Play Against Panthers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II gets a favorable matchup in Week 10 against Carolina. After rattling off three straight games with at least 100 yards rushing, Jones II has been held under 50 yards on the ground in three straight contests with a snap count percentage under 50 percent in each. While […]

Tom Brady Poised For Bounce-Back Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is coming off a terrible three-interception performance in a 35-point loss on national television against the Saints in Week 9. Brady has had eight losses by 20 or more points in his career and is 7-1 in the games following such losses. He owns 19 touchdowns to just three […]

David Johnson Ruled Out For Week 10

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 10 against the Browns. It's relatively unsurprising, as Johnson is still in the concussion protocol and registered three 'DNPs' on the practice report this week. Fellow halfback Duke Johnson will take the reins to the backfield and likely see close to the […]

Texans Defense A Low-End Option

The Houston Texans Defense gets a so-so matchup in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns. Houston hasn't wowed anyone with their ability to generate turnovers, as they've forced just five takeaways on the season. They do have 18 sacks, but they'll be hard-pressed to create pressure against Cleveland's stout offensive line. The Texans defense can […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn A Solid Option In Week 10

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn gets a middle-of-the-pack matchup in Week 10 against Cleveland. Fairbairn has made at least two field goals and two extra points in two straight games, giving him a nice floor for fantasy managers. He may not possess the upside of other kickers, though Houston's offense does have the potential to […]

Jordan Akins Too Risky To Start

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins gets a decent matchup in Week 10 against the Browns. Unfortunately, Akins can't be trusted when he's sharing snaps with fellow tight end Darren Fells. Akins returned from injury in Week 9 and played 34 percent of the snaps, though he did see more targets than Fells. The former […]

Darren Fells Can't Be Trusted Against Cleveland

Houston Texans tight end Darren Fells saw a sharp dip in playing time in Week 9 with the return of Jordan Akins. Fells played at least 78 percent of the snaps in each game missed by Akins, but that number fell to 51 percent with the latter back in the lineup. It also doesn't help […]

Randall Cobb An Intriguing Start Against Browns

Houston Texans wide receiver Randall Cobb draws a terrific matchup in Week 10 against the Browns. Cobb is just a couple of games removed from a 95-yard performance against the Packers and faces a Browns team that ranks 22nd against the pass. While clearly the third option behind Will Fuller V and Brandin Cooks, Cobb […]

Brandin Cooks A Good WR2 Play In Week 10

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks gets another excellent matchup in Week 10 against the Browns. Cooks is on a roll lately, having eclipsed 60 receiving yards in four straight games with a touchdown reception in three of those four. The matchup with Cleveland is juicy, as they've allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to wide […]

Will Fuller V A WR1 Against Cleveland

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller V is in a good spot to produce strong numbers against the Browns in Week 10. Fuller is coming off a 100-yard day and his sixth straight game with a touchdown ahead of a matchup with a Cleveland defense that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points per game to […]

Duke Johnson Looking At Increased Workload

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson could see an increased workload in Week 10 against the Browns. Teammate David Johnson (head) is in the concussion protocol and is "up in the air" for Week 10, according to head coach Romeo Crennel. Enter Duke Johnson, who, despite running rather unimpressively, saw a career-high 20 touches in […]

Deshaun Watson A Top-Tier Option In Week 10

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson gets a great matchup in Week 10 against the Browns. Watson is coming into the week hot, having thrown for at least 300 yards and two scores in four of his last five contests. He's also finished as a QB1 in each of his last four games. The Browns' defense […]

David Johnson Not Expected To Practice Wednesday

Houston Texans running back David Johnson (head) is in the early stages of the concussion protocol and isn't expected to practice on Wednesday. Interim head coach Romeo Crennel said that Johnson is "up in their air" for Week 10 against the Browns, with NFL Network's Ian Rapoport noting that a Wednesday 'DNP' for someone in […]

Christian McCaffrey Won't Practice Wednesday

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (shoulder) won't take the field for practice Wednesday. McCaffrey is receiving a second opinion on the shoulder he injured late in Week 9 against the Chiefs. The All-Pro back was originally thought to be on the wrong side of questionable for Week 10 against the Buccaneers, and a 'DNP' […]

Saints Defense Bulldozes Buccaneers

The New Orleans Saints Defense had their best performance of the season, registering three sacks and three interceptions in a 38-3 blowout of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Saints put pressure on Tom Brady the whole night, consistently forcing him into errant throws or poor decisions. The defense pressured Brady on many dropbacks and hit […]

Wil Lutz Makes All Six Kicks In Blowout Win

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz made his lone field-goal attempt and all five extra points in a 38-3 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Lutz didn't have many field-goal chances with his offense operating as efficiently as it did, though he was perfect on extra points. This gave him a nice floor for fantasy […]

Jared Cook Catches Two Passes, Loses Fumble

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook caught two of three targets for 30 receiving yards and lost a fumble in a win over the Buccaneers. Cook hauled in a Drew Brees pass at the 2-yard line and tried to rumble into the end zone for a score, but lost the ball. It was not […]

Tre'Quan Smith Finds The End Zone Against Buccaneers

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith caught one of two targets for 14 receiving yards and a touchdown in a blowout victory over the Buccaneers. Smith may have only had one catch, but he certainly made it count, as he got the scoring started with a nice grab in the back of the end […]

Emmanuel Sanders Scores For Third Time This Year

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders hauled in four of five targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in a 38-3 win over the Buccaneers. Sanders helped the Saints cash in on their first points of the second quarter, as he brought in a red zone score. The veteran wideout probably won't have many […]

Michael Thomas Returns With 51 Receiving Yards

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas caught five of six targets for 51 yards in a 38-3 blowout of the Buccaneers. Thomas seemed to move well and was involved early, registering much of his production before the half. With the game essentially in hand by halftime, New Orleans rested Thomas as much as possible […]

Latavius Murray Paces Team In Carries

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray led the team in carries with 10 but rushed for just 39 yards in a dominant 38-3 victory over the Buccaneers. Murray got more run in this one with the game essentially out of hand by halftime. Running room was hard to come by against this Tampa Bay […]

Alvin Kamara Finds End Zone In Blowout Win

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball nine times for 40 rushing yards with a touchdown and caught five of six targets for nine receiving yards. The receiving line seems like a typo, but that's the kind of night it was for Kamara. Fortunately, he was able to salvage his day with […]

Drew Brees Dissects Buccaneers With Four Touchdowns

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 26 of 32 passes for 222 yards and four touchdowns in a 38-3 blowout of the Buccaneers. It was a classic performance from Brees, as he picked apart the league's number one pass defense by DVOA, registering a completion to 12 different receivers. The veteran signal-caller wasn't needed […]

Younghoe Koo Nails Six Kicks In Victory

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo made both field-goal attempts and all four extra points in a 34-27 victory over the Denver Broncos. Koo connected from 52 yards out, his third make from 50 yards or more. The 26-year-old has been fantastic this season, as he ranks in the top-five in points despite missing a game. […]

Hayden Hurst Catches Season-High Seven Passes

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst caught seven of eight targets for 62 receiving yards in a 34-27 win over Denver. Hurst has seemingly found his niche in this offense, as he has seven targets or more in three straight games and 50-plus receiving yards in four straight. The former Raven may not be the […]

Olamide Zaccheaus Explodes For 103 Yards

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus caught four of six targets for 103 yards and a score in a victory over the Broncos. Zaccheaus made the most of his opportunity with Calvin Ridley (foot) out of the lineup, as he set a new career-high in receiving yards. The 23-year-old beat the Broncos Defense deep for […]

Julio Jones Goes For 54 Yards And A Touchdown

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones hauled in five of seven targets for 54 receiving yards and a touchdown in a 34-27 victory over Denver. Jones completely faked the defense on his touchdown route, as he was left wide open in the end zone. The All-Pro wideout wasn't needed for much more than that, as […]

Todd Gurley II Handles 21 Touches, Finds The End Zone

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II turned 21 touches into 55 scrimmage yards and a touchdown in a 34-27 win over the Broncos. Gurley II was completely stymied by the Broncos front, as they held him to just 2.8 yards per carry. It certainly hasn't been pretty for the former Ram, as he's been […]
