The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 7)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 7

It was another big week at the quarterback position, as five quarterbacks topped 30 points and 12 scored more than 20 heading into Sunday Night Football. Most of the big performers were players we expect, such as Matt Ryan and Deshaun Watson, but we also got some surprising starts from quarterbacks who are widely available. […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round

The Jets are back! OK, maybe not back because they were never here but at least there's some actual hope and fantasy value to be had from a previously winless team. The tight end landscape has changed drastically again, as Hunter Henry returns right at 60% ownership, while breakout second-year Seahawk Will Dissly's season appears […]

Matthew Stafford Goes Without A Touchdown

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford finished with 265 yards on 18-for-32 passing in the loss to the Packers on Monday. The veteran still played relatively well despite failing to throw a touchdown and had it not been for rookie mistakes from tight end T.J. Hockenson, the story would have been different. With Week 6 in […]

Aaron Rodgers Goes For Two Touchdowns

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers went 22-for-39 for 283 yards and a touchdown in the narrow win over the Lions on Monday night. Though he did throw an interception, it was an acceptable performance for the signal-caller who was without top receiver Davante Adams (toe), while also dealing with the in-game losses of Marquez […]

Joe Flacco (QB, DEN) - Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Nobody cares about Joe Flacco because Joe Flacco is one of the blandest players in the league, but in fantasy football, some storylines and playing trends don’t have a lot of importance. Actually, after moving from Baltimore to Denver, Joe Flacco has been his […]

Jared Goff Has A Hideous Performance On Sunday

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff played miserably in the loss to the 49ers, finishing with just 78 yards on 13-for-24 passing, and while he didn't throw an interception in this one, he did fumble twice on the day. The 24-year-old had a day to forget for sure, and though Goff has an abundance of […]

Devlin Hodges Serviceable In First Start

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges finished 15 of 20 for just 132 yards with a touchdown and an interception in Sunday's win over the Chargers. The Steelers jumped out to an early 14-0 lead, thanks to two takeaways by the defense. The big advantage allowed the offense to emphasize the run with James Conner and […]

Josh Rosen Benched in Loss

Coming off of a bye and facing one of the league's most generous defenses, the stars seemed to be aligned for Miami Dolphins quarterback Josh Rosen to show his true talent in Week 6. Rosen was instead benched to start the fourth quarter after throwing for just 85 yards on 15-of-25 passing, leading Miami to […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick's Magic Can't Make Win Appear

Called upon in the fourth quarter to take over an offense that had thus far been stagnant, Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick almost pulled out Miami's first win of the season in Week 6 before ultimately losing to the Washington Redskins 17-16. Fitzpatrick entered the game and led the Dolphins on two touchdown drives, including […]

Philip Rivers Turns It Over Three Times

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers played poorly on Sunday as the Chargers lost to the Steelers. Rivers was responsible for turnovers on back-to-back drives in the first quarter when he overthrew Melvin Gordon on a backwards pass that was recovered and returned for a touchdown and had a tipped pass intercepted four plays later. […]

Joe Flacco Had A Rough Week 6 Showing

Denver Broncos quarterback Joe Flacco posted one of his worst fantasy performances of the season thus far in Week 6, continuing his struggles this season. Denver has seemed to figure out how to win games in the last two weeks, and unfortunately for Joe Flacco owners, the passing game doesn't seem to be that solution. […]

Kyler Murray Has A Stellar Day

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was 27-for-37 for 340 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 6. He also added 32 rushing yards on 11 carries. Murray took some rare shots down the field as he connected on passes of 58 yards and 38 yards. Murray has placed himself in […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Posts A Fantasy Clunker

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 24 of 33 passes for 243 scoreless yards in Week 6 against the Los Angeles Rams. He also recorded a rushing touchdown, threw a pick and lost a fumble. Jimmy G was once against careless with the football, committing his seventh turnover in five contests. Fortunately, the Niners […]

Russell Wilson Efficiently Wins Again

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson had another fantastic day on Sunday as he not only led Seattle to their third road win, but he also upped his total to 14 passing touchdowns while still remaining free of interceptions. Wilson completed 69.7% of his passes against the Browns, and he also ran in a touchdown. Wilson […]

Sam Darnold Impresses In Return

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold completed 23 of 32 passes for 338 yards in his return to the lineup Sunday. Darnold threw two touchdowns and one interception in his first game since Week 1. Darnold missed three games with mono, but provided a huge boost to a Jets offense that had averaged the fewest […]

Dak Prescott Struggles in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott struggled in Week 6, throwing for just 277 scoreless yards. Dak completed 28 passes on 40 tries, but was able to add 11 yards and a touchdown on the ground. The New York Jets Defense somehow managed to keep the Cowboys passing game out of the end zone, partly because […]

Carson Wentz Throws for Over 300 Yards in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz was solid despite an Eagles loss in Week 6. He threw for 306 yards, completing 26 of his 40 pass attempts. Wentz ended up with two touchdowns and threw an interception. It was the first 300 yard game since Week 1 for the Eagles quarterback, who matched up with Miles […]

Deshaun Watson Gets It Done Against Chiefs

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson went 30-for-42 for 280 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Chiefs. While he threw two interceptions, he made amends with his handiwork on the ground, finishing with 42 yards and two more scores on 10 attempts. The 24-year-old has been on a tear this season and continues […]

Ryan Tannehill Gets A Chance in Week 6

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill came into the game in the third quarter after a horrendous performance by Marcus Mariota. Tannehill didn't play outstanding, but might get the nod against the Chargers next week. He completed 13 of 16 passing attempts for 144 yards and an interception in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Whether […]

Marcus Mariota Gets Benched in Third Quarter

Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was benched in the third quarter of the Week 6 matchup versus the Denver Broncos. Mariota was abysmal on Sunday, competing 7 of 18 passes for 63 yards and threw two interceptions in the loss. He was missing wide open receivers all day long, so this wasn't a surprising move. […]

Kirk Cousins Throws Four Touchdowns In Victory

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins had his second straight impressive performance in Week 6, completing 22-of-27 passes for 333 yards and four touchdowns in a 38-20 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He threw one touchdown to Adam Thielen and three to Stefon Diggs as the Vikings were able to dice up the injury-riddled Eagles secondary […]

Matt Ryan Shines With Four Touchdowns In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan took full advantage of a generous Cardinals Defense in Week 6, completing 30-of-36 passes for 356 yards and four touchdowns with no turnovers. This was his second game in a row with four total touchdowns, as he had three passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown in Week 5. He's thrown […]

Case Keenum Plays Well Enough To Win In Miami

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum didn't have his best statistical performance on Sunday, completing just over 50% of his 25 pass attempts for 166 yards. What mattered more than any of that was the two touchdowns he threw to help the Redskins earn their first win of the 2019 season over the Dolphins. Keenum found […]

Baker Mayfield Accounts for Two TDs, Throws Three Picks

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield had an up-and-down day in a 32-28 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. Mayfield completed 22 of his 37 passes for 249 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions while tacking on 35 rushing yards and a touchdown. Mayfield briefly left Sunday's game during the third quarter and was […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Three Touchdowns in Loss

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was somewhat underwhelming in the 31-24 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 6. He completed 19 of 35 passes for 273 yards and three touchdowns with one interception. The last three weeks have been fairly average weeks for Mahomes in terms of fantasy production. The three touchdowns was […]

Gardner Minshew Held Without A Touchdown Pass

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew was smothered by the Saints Defense on Sunday and finished with just 163 yards and a pick on 14-for-29 passing. After throwing his first interception as a starter, Minshew also went without a touchdown toss for the first time this year. The future looks good for the rookie, however, as […]

Teddy Bridgewater Throws Touchdown Pass In Week 6

New Orleans Saints quarterback Teddy Bridgewater managed his team to a 13-6 victory in Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Bridgewater went 24-for-36 for 240 yards and a touchdown, averaging just 6.7 yards per attempt. Unfortunately for the sixth-year veteran, a 42-yard touchdown pass to Latavius Murray was brought back by a penalty. Bridgewater went […]

Lamar Jackson Razzle-Dazzles Against The Bengals

Quarterback Lamar Jackson carried the ball 19 times for a career-high 152 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 6 win against Cincinnati. Jackson also threw for 236 yards, making him the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era to run for 150 yards and throw for 200 in a single game. Jackson didn't have […]

Baker Mayfield Taken To The Locker Room

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield appeared to injure his lower back in the third quarter against the Seahawks. Mayfield was taken to the locker room for evaluation, but he promptly returned without missing a single snap and is currently back in the game. It appears Mayfield will tough this one out, but his Week 7 […]
