NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 17) - Targets and Avoids

What usually is the season finale is now the penultimate week of the regular season. 24 out of 32 teams are still in playoff contention. Just eight teams have officially been eliminated. This is why the NFL is the best. The major upset of Week 16 was the Texans beating down on the Chargers. The […]

Drew Lock Falls Flat Against Raiders

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock didn't turn the ball over in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders, but that was about his only positive in a disappointing 17-13 loss on Sunday. Lock went 15-for-22 for 153 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions, and he ran twice for 10 yards. With the Raiders selling out […]

Brandon Allen Lands On COVID-19 List

Cincinnati Bengals backup quarterback Brandon Allen was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. The obvious concern here is for starter Joe Burrow, who threw for a franchise-record 525 passing yards in the Week 16 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. Burrow and Allen are the team's only QBs on the active roster, with Jake […]

Taylor Heinicke Has Rough Week 16 Outing

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke had a rough game on Sunday night on the road in Dallas, as the dual-threat completed just 7-of-22 passes for 121 yards and a touchdown. He was picked off twice in this game, one of which came on his first pass attempt of the night. The Washington offense is […]

Panthers Dealing With COVID-19 Outbreak

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule said on Monday that the team has had a "somewhat significant" outbreak of positive COVID-19 tests. Everybody has been sent home and Rhule hopes they will be able to resume preparation for Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints on Wednesday. The Panthers appear to be the latest NFL […]

Dan Campbell To Finish The Season As The Play-Caller

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that he will continue to call the offensive plays for the final two games of the regular season. Detroit's offense has looked better since Campbell took over the play-calling duties with more input from offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn. "Definitely, I feel like every week I've gotten a lot […]

Mike Glennon Throws TD And Pick-Six In Relief

New York Giants quarterback Mike Glennon completed 17-of-27 passes for 93 yards with a touchdown and an interception in relief during Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He also rushed twice for 11 yards. The 32-year-old entered the game for Jake Fromm to kickstart the Giants offense with eight minutes remaining in the third […]

Kirk Cousins Not Impacted By Rib Injury

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins (ribs) told the media that he was not bothered by his lingering injury during Sunday's loss to the Rams. Cousins, who was limited in practice last Wednesday, did not carry an injury designation into Week 16, but it's still good to see that the veteran signal-caller felt fine after 60 […]

Cam Newton Discusses Future Following Loss

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who ceded work to Sam Darnold in Week 16, used Sunday's postgame press conference to address questions surrounding his future in the NFL. "Football has been good to me," he said. "I was able to walk away unscathed. I don't want to sound like I'm retiring, but I've had some […]

Joe Burrow Has A Monster Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow had one of the best performances ever during the win over Baltimore on Sunday. The sophomore-signal caller finished with a massive 525 passing yards and four touchdowns on 37-for-46 passing while adding two carries for 11 yards. Burrow certainly had his way with the Ravens defense this year, as he […]

Davis Mills Phenomenal In Week 16

Houston Texans rookie quarterback Davis Mills was very good against the Chargers in Week 16. He completed 21 of his 27 pass attempts for 254 yards and two touchdowns. It was an impressive performance against the 13th-ranked pass defense in DVOA in the Chargers. Mills has shown a modicum of moxy this season and even […]

Cam Newton Manages Only 61 Yards Against Bucs

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton went 7-for-13 for 61 yards and one pick along with rushing five times for 42 yards in Sunday's loss to Tampa. Newton struggled in Sunday's game and also split playing time with QB Sam Darnold, who returned from a lengthy absence due to a shoulder injury. Darnold ended up outplaying […]

Sam Darnold Throws For 190 Yards Against Buccaneers

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold went 15-for-32 for 190 yards along with rushing once for 11 yards in Sunday's loss to Tampa. Darnold returned to the field for the first time since November 7 after dealing with a shoulder injury for some time. The Panthers' QB situation is quite confusing as Darnold and Newton both […]

Zach Wilson Scores Twice In Victory

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson was not expected to do much considering his last few performances. It's worth noting that Wilson was also without his top three receiving options for this Week 16 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Wilson completed 14-of-22 passing attempts for 102 yards and one touchdown in the win. He also […]

Ben Roethlisberger Struggles Vs. Chiefs In Week 16

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger struggled in a 36-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 16. Roethlisberger completed 23 of 35 passes for 159 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the lopsided loss to the Chiefs. It was a rough afternoon for Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh offense as they didn't get their […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Three Touchdowns In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes came through for fantasy managers with a big game in a Week 16 victory versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mahomes finished the game 23-for-30 with 258 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions on the afternoon. With the score out of hand in the fourth quarter, Mahomes would exit early for […]

Russell Wilson Throws A Pair Of TDs In Week 16

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, along with the rest of his offense, struggled in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears in the loss that sealed Wilson's first season with double-digit losses. Wilson completed 16 of 27 passes for two touchdowns on the day while adding two carries for 13 yards. Wilson looked like he was […]

Matthew Stafford Slips Up In Week 16

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will be looking to put his Week 16 performance against the Minnesota Vikings behind him as soon as possible. Stafford finished the game 21 of 37 for 197 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions. He also added three carries for eight yards on the day. This was the […]

Mac Jones Has A Tough Day Against Bills

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones struggled to get anything going against the Buffalo Bills in Week 16. He completed 14-of-32 passing attempts for 145 yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss. The arm strength appeared to be the biggest issue for the rookie quarterback in this one. Both of the interceptions […]

Kirk Cousins Puts Up 315 Yards In Loss To Rams

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 27 of 38 passes for 315 yards and a touchdown in the 30-23 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. It was Cousins' sixth 300-yard passing game of the season, fresh off a season-low 87-yard performance last week. Minnesota played without Dalvin Cook in this one and struggled to get […]

Josh Allen Works His Magic

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had seemingly no issues against the New England Patriots in Week 16. The young quarterback completed 30-of-47 passing attempts for 314 yards and three touchdowns without an interception in the win. He also added 64 additional yards on the ground in 12 attempts. This was a tough matchup for Allen […]

Tim Boyle Passes For 184 Yards In Loss

Detroit Lions quarterback Tim Boyle completed 24-of-34 passes for 184 yards, one touchdown and one interception in the Lions 20-16 loss to the Falcons in Week 16. Starting quarterback Jared Goff was unable to return in time in this game from the Covid-list and Boyle provided a typical backup-QB-type performance. It is likely Boyle will […]

Tom Brady Quiet In Week 16

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady went 18-for-30 for 232 yards with only one touchdown and no interceptions against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. Brady didn't need to do much, which is always a risk for his fantasy value, but his minimal output shouldn't be concerning to fantasy managers. It's easy to point to […]

Justin Herbert Struggles In Upset Loss

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert put together an ugly performance in an upset loss versus the Houston Texans in Week 16. With many fantasy leagues in their semifinals, Herbert couldn't have picked a worse time to lay an egg for his managers. The sophomore signal-caller struggled all day against the Texans defense and finished […]

Justin Fields Inactive On Sunday

Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Justin Fields (ankle) is officially inactive in Week 16 against the Seattle Seahawks. Fields came into this game as questionable, but the Bears announced on Friday that Nick Foles would be getting the start, regardless of whether Fields was active. Andy Dalton (groin) is also inactive after just returning from the […]

Jaguars Interested In Byron Leftwich As Next Head Coach

The Jacksonville Jaguars are interested in several candidates to fill their head-coaching vacancy heading into next season. Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich could be the ideal candidate to help mold young quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Along with Leftwich, the Jags are interested in interviewing former head coaches Jim Caldwell and Doug Pederson. Leftwich was […]

Dak Prescott Working To Get Back On Track

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hasn't been very good since he returned from a calf injury, but he's been spending extra time working with his receivers in recent weeks to get the Dallas offense back on track heading into the postseason. Prescott and his receivers have put in extra time outside of practice on specific […]
