Andy Dalton Officially Out For Sunday Night

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton (concussion) has been downgraded from doubtful to out for the Sunday night game against the division-rival Eagles in Week 8.

Tom Brady A Strong Start Against Giants

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is on a roll heading into a Week 8 matchup with the Giants.

Drew Lock Not Trustworthy Against Chargers

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock just hasn't looked good since returning from a shoulder injury two weeks ago. In a 43-16 blowout loss to the division-rival Chiefs last weekend, Lock went 24-for-40 for only 254 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions for the second straight week. He salvaged his stat line by rushing for a […]

Patrick Mahomes Primed For A Big Performance In Week 8

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is gearing up for a feast against the 0-7 New York Jets in Week 8. Mahomes had a quiet Week 7 by his standards but also sat out part of the fourth quarter due to the Chiefs large lead, and that could again happen on Sunday. The Jets Defense […]

Justin Herbert Looks To Continue Strong Rookie Campaign

Los Angeles Chargers rookie quarterback Justin Herbert will look to keep his strong debut season going against the Denver Broncos in a Week 8 battle on Sunday. Herbert picked up his first victory versus the Jaguars in Week 7 and looked brilliant in doing so. The Broncos Defense has been playing very of late and […]

Tua Tagovailoa Has Tough Challenge Ahead

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was surprisingly named the starter for the Week 8 matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. This is quite odd timing since the team is 3-3 and was playing well with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center. Regardless, Tagovailoa was always the future of the team. It's tough to predict what kind of […]

Andy Dalton Officially Doubtful Against Eagles

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Andy Dalton (concussion) is officially listed as doubtful for Week 8 on Sunday night against the Eagles. Dalton remains in the league's concussion protocol and is unlikely to return to practice on Saturday, paving the way for rookie Ben DiNucci to make his first career start in the divisional matchup. The Cowboys […]

Fantasy Football Trade Targets - Week 8

The fantasy trade market is always a fun one to evaluate.

Now, seven weeks into the season, we have several big-name players underperforming […]

Throwing In the Towel: NFL Teams to Avoid in Fantasy

As we inch closer to the NFL trade deadline, teams are putting the final push into mid-season evaluations of their second-half direction points. Good teams are buyers and bad teams are sellers.

The NFL trade deadline is next Tuesday. With COVID parameters in place this season, teams will look to make moves early to avoid having to wait even an extra week to start their new additions.

Derek Carr A Potential QB1 In Week 8

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is having a career year so far, and he will have a good chance to build on that against the Browns.

Daniel Jones Faces Tough Test Monday Night

Andy Dalton Should Be Ready For Next Week

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy isn't ready to completely rule out quarterback Andy Dalton (concussion) for Week 8 against the Eagles, but owner Jerry Jones said that Dalton "should be ready to go next week" against the Steelers. Rookie Ben DiNucci has taken all the first-team repetitions in practice this week and is in […]

Ravens Give Ronnie Stanley A Five-Year Extension

The Baltimore Ravens signed All-Pro left tackle Ronnie Stanley to a five-year contract extension on Friday.

Teddy Bridgewater Constantly Under Duress Against Atlanta

Carolina Panthers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater completed 15 of 23 passes for 176 yards and a touchdown along with 30 yards rushing on five attempts in a 25-17 loss to Atlanta.

Matt Ryan Throws For 281 Yards

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan went 21-for-30 for 281 yards and one interception in the Thursday night win over the Panthers. He also had six rushes for 27 yards and a score. It was a rainy game and many players were clearly affected by the conditions. Ryan finished with an average night, which he has […]

Sam Darnold A Laughable Option For Week 8

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold showed no signs of life during the loss to the Buffalo Bills last week. Darnold returned after a two-game absence, but was torn apart by the Bills Defense in Week 7. He finished with 120 passing yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss. To be fair, […]

Philip Rivers A Low-End QB2 In Week 8

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Philip Rivers will face off against the Lions in Week 8. Rivers is coming off his best performance of the season against the Bengals, but he will likely revert back to what he was prior to Week 6. The Lions Defense has actually been fairly good against the pass, currently ranking ninth […]

Sam Darnold Logs Full Practice Thursday

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) was able to practice in full Thursday, an indication that he's ready to play Sunday against Kansas City with no remaining injury concerns.
