Buddy Hield Drains Six Threes In Win
Sacramento Kings guard Buddy Hield had a great game in a 119-118 win over the Houston Rockets, scoring 26 points with six triples, four rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 33 minutes. His night included a clutch, fadeaway three that tied the game with eight seconds left, leading to teammate Nemanja Bjelica's game-winner. After […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoSaints Defense Has So-So Day
The New Orleans Saints Defense posted three sacks and an interception in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Unfortunately for New Orleans, they couldn't get a stop all afternoon en route to allowing 516 total yards and 48 points. In leagues that penalize for points or yards, the Saints defense was a total […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoWil Lutz Stays Hot Against 49ers
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz made two field goals and four extra points in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Lutz's day included a long of 55 yards, his first make from that distance since Week 2. The 25-year-old has now made at least two field goals and two extra points in […]

New Orleans Saints tight end Josh Hill caught two of four targets for four yards and a touchdown in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Hill filled in for Jared Cook (concussion) and reeled in a red zone score. Hill filled in admirably for Cook earlier in the year and could have a […]

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook (concussion) caught both of his targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Cook showed off his athleticism in this one, catching and out-running the San Francisco defense for his first score. Cook then made an athletic, leaping grab for […]

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith caught two of four targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Smith made a huge play in the fourth quarter, catching a crossing route, then breaking two tackles on his way to the end zone. Smith hasn't been great […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoTed Ginn Posts 50 Receiving Yards In Loss
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn caught four of six targets for 50 yards in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Ginn had a big 25-yard catch-and-run play in the fourth quarter. It's only the second time this year that Ginn has exceeded 50 receiving yards. Perhaps this performance will jump-start him […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMichael Thomas Unstoppable Against 49ers
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas hauled in 11 of 15 targets for 134 yards and a touchdown in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Thomas had a decent stat line through three quarters- then the fourth quarter happened. The All-Pro wideout had five catches for 87 yards and a touchdown in […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoLatavius Murray Runs Strong Against 49ers
New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray posted 64 rushing yards on seven carries and caught two of three targets for 25 yards in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Murray was out-touched by Alvin Kamara 17-nine, though Murray looked like the better player in this game. It was a great rebound effort […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara Shut Down By 49ers
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball 13 times for 25 yards and caught four of six targets for 18 yards in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It's fair to wonder if something is wrong health-wise with Kamara, who's been a bust in fantasy this year. It could also […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDrew Brees Explodes For Six Touchdowns In Week 14
New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees completed 29 of 40 pass attempts for 349 yards and five touchdowns along with a one-yard rushing score in a 48-46 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. It was one of the best performances of Brees' career against an elite pass defense. He threw touchdowns to four different receivers […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoPackers Defense Has Solid Day
The Green Bay Packers Defense produced four sacks, three fumble recoveries and an interception in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. It was a strong effort by Green Bay- the only blemish was a late garbage-time touchdown allowed to Terry McLaurin. Packers linebacker Preston Smith got in on the fun, posting two tackles and […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMason Crosby Has Good Day Against Redskins
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby made two field goals and two extra points in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. The 35-year-old extended his made field goal streak to five games. For the season, Crosby has missed only one kick and has made all of his extra points. As long as the Packers […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoRobert Tonyan Scores Touchdown
Green Bay Packers tight end Robert Tonyan caught his lone target for a 12-yard touchdown in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. Tonyan scored his second career touchdown, snatching away a possible score from Jimmy Graham. The second-year veteran is under 100 receiving yards for the season and isn't on the fantasy radar.
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Posts 49 Receiving Yards
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham hauled in three of five targets for 49 receiving yards in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. It was a decent day for Graham, though he again had to watch as one of his backups snatched a touchdown away from him. This time, the vulture was Robert […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoGeronimo Allison Barely Makes A Peep
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison caught his lone target for 11 yards in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. Another game, another poor performance for Allison, who's been a fantasy bust this year. The 25-year-old has now failed to eclipse 50 receiving yards in all but one game. He is firmly off […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAllen Lazard Stifled By Redskins
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught two of three targets for 19 receiving yards in a 20-15 victory over the Washington Redskins. Lazard fell back down to earth after exploding for a career-high 103 yards against the Giants last week. The rookie fell victim to a bad performance by quarterback Aaron Rodgers, though […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams Held In Check
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams caught four of six targets for 41 yards in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. It didn't help that quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for only 195 yards and one touchdown. Rodgers' poor performance and game script are likely why Adams saw a season-low six targets after compiling […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJamaal Williams Takes Backseat To Aaron Jones
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams picked up 24 rushing yards on seven carries and failed to register a reception on one target. Williams played second fiddle to Aaron Jones, who exploded for 192 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. It's entirely possible that Williams, who was a late addition to the injury report on […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAaron Jones Shines Against Redskins
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones posted a season-high 134 rushing yards on 16 totes with a touchdown and caught six of seven targets for 58 receiving yards in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. With game script on his side, Jones was fed the most touches since Week 8- and he responded […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAaron Rodgers Quiet Against Redskins
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 18 of 28 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown in a 20-15 win over the Washington Redskins. Rodgers attempted a season-low 28 passes because Green Bay jumped out to a 14-0 lead- and their running game and defense took care of the rest. The lone touchdown pass […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMarquise Goodwin, Dante Pettis Out For Week 14
San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Marquise Goodwin (knee, foot) and Dante Pettis (knee) are both out against the New Orleans Saints. Both are off the fantasy radar anyway, considering they've played less than 40 percent of the snaps in their last three games when active.
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDemaryius Thomas, Ryan Griffin Active Against Dolphins
New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) and tight end Ryan Griffin (illness) are both active against the Miami Dolphins. Thomas is a low-end flex, though he hasn't eclipsed 50 receiving yards in any of his last three contests. Griffin is a good streaming option- he caught six of eight targets for 50 yards […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoWill Fuller Officially Inactive Against Denver
Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) is officially inactive against the Denver Broncos. The deep-threat tweaked the hamstring against Indianapolis back in Week 12 and is likely being held out for precautionary measures. His absence is an upgrade for pass-catchers DeAndre Hopkins, Kenny Stills, Darren Fells, and Duke Johnson. Stills will benefit directly, considering […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMarquise Brown Active Against Bills
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) is officially active against the Buffalo Bills. Brown recorded just one catch last week against the San Francisco 49ers- and it won't get any easier against the Bills, who have been extremely stingy against opposing receivers this year.
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAdam Thielen Officially Inactive
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen (hamstring) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 14 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The 29-year-old failed to practice this week after doing so in limited fashion last week. His absence will result in more opportunities for pass-catchers Stefon Diggs, Bisi Johnson, Kyle Rudolph, and Irv Smith- all of whom […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoPackers Defense A Great Option In Week 14
The Green Bay Packers Defense gets a juicy Week 14 matchup against rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins and the Washington Redskins. For the season, Washington ranks in the bottom-10 of the league in points scored, sacks allowed, and interceptions thrown. Haskins has been sacked 14 times in the last three games combined. Green Bay ranks in […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMason Crosby A Solid Option In Week 14
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby will face the Washington Redskins in Week 14. The 35-year-old ranks 17th in fantasy points scored by kickers and only 26th in field goal attempts. Crosby has been money on extra points this year, sporting a 33 of 33 mark. He should have a chance to bolster these numbers […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Too Risky Against Redskins
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham gets a good matchup against the Washington Redskins. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter because the 32-year-old has seen a steady decline in snaps over the last three weeks. Graham even had a touchdown snatched away from him by backup tight end Mercedes Lewis. There's also the fact that he's […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAllen Lazard A Risky Play
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard will take on the Washington Redskins in Week 14. The rookie had a career-high 103 receiving yards against the Giants last week. Lazard has out-snapped fellow receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling in three consecutive games. Unfortunately, that role hasn't lent a ton of volume, as his season-high for targets is […]
