Mitch Trubisky Officially Out For Week 5
Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 5 against the Raiders in London. Trubisky was never expected to play in this game, especially with the Bears on bye in Week 6. There's a good chance that he winds up missing just this one game. Backup […]
Josh Allen, Devin Singletary Questionable For Week 5
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (concussion) and rookie running back Devin Singletary (hamstring) are both questionable to play in Week 5 against the Titans. Allen returned to a full practice on Friday, so it looks like he's cleared the concussion protocol and should be out there this Sunday, albeit in a tough matchup that will […]
Colt McCoy Will Start Against Patriots
The Washington Redskins will start quarterback Colt McCoy in Week 5 against the Patriots. Case Keenum was benched in Week 4 and rookie Dwayne Haskins came in to throw three more interceptions, so head coach Jay Gruden went with the QB most familiar with his offense. McCoy draws an extremely tough matchup in the New […]
Jay Gruden Not A Fan Of Dwayne Haskins?
There is a sense that Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden wasn't on board with the team drafting rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins in the first round, but it's just speculation, according to a report from The Washington Post. As a result, Haskins can sense that Gruden isn't high on him. Haskins came into the Week […]
Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 5
Before we get into the waiver wire analysis, I want to state that the Patriots have put together a football dynasty like none we've ever seen. However, I think we should all agree that a 16-game season is a whole lot less taxing when six of them every year are against the Dolphins, Bills, and […]
Sam Darnold Won't Play In Week 5
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (mono) was not cleared by team doctors to play on Sunday at Philadelphia. Darnold had been practicing as he tries to return from illness, but was not given the green light to suit up in game action. The Jets will turn to Luke Falk again to start Sunday and […]
FanDuel, DraftKings CFB DFS Picks: Daily Fantasy College Football Advice for 10/4/19
We're working with another two-game slate here, but these games both have over/unders exceeding 60. UCF and Cincinnati will square off in what will be one of the more exciting games of the weekend. New Mexico and San Jose State should be exciting as well, with two offenses that can score the ball. Let's dive […]
Baker Mayfield a QB2 in Week 5
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield turned in his best performance of the season in a Week 4 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He will look to build upon that in a road game against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night. Mayfield sets up as a QB2 in fantasy for Week 5, thanks to a […]
Gardner Minshew Has Tough Week 5 Matchup
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew faces a Panthers Defense in Week 5 that's allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks and held Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson to no touchdowns and under 200 yards passing in Week 4. That's not a great sign for Minshew's fantasy viability, and he's a low-end QB2 at best in […]
Russell Wilson Playing Into MVP Conversation
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson put on a phenomenal show on Thursday night as he threw four touchdown passes and zero interceptions in Seattle's defeat of the Rams. Wilson has now thrown for 12 touchdowns and zero interceptions this season, and he's recorded a ridiculous 126.5 passer rating through the first five games of the […]
FanDuel, DraftKings CFB DFS Picks: Daily Fantasy College Football Advice for 10/5/19
After two fun weekday slates, we kick things back into action for week six with an 11-game slate over on DraftKings. We'll touch on FanDuel as well, but check out the late article as well for plays that span the entire day. We'll be focusing on the best plays with price considered, so value will […]
Deshaun Watson Should Bounce Back In Week 5
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson failed to throw a touchdown against the Panthers in Week 4, but he should have more success when Houston hosts the Falcons in Week 5. Atlanta has allowed seven passing touchdowns so far this season and have allowed the second-most rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks as well. Watson's got a big […]
Case Keenum Back At Practice, Vernon Davis Still Out
Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum (foot) was limited in practice on Thursday, while tight end Vernon Davis (concussion) sat out for the second straight day. Keenum was in a walking boot on Wednesday, but the Redskins still aren't ruling him out for Week 5 against the Patriots after he was benched for poor performance in […]
Bengals Hoping Cordy Glenn Returns Soon
Cincinnati Bengals left tackle Cordy Glenn (concussion) is still being evaluated by independent doctors for his concussion, but head coach Zac Taylor said the team is hopeful that Glenn will play soon. Andy Dalton's blind-side protector is unlikely to return in Week 5 against the Cardinals, but the offensive line needs him back as soon […]
Mitch Trubisky, Taylor Gabriel Miss Practice
Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky (shoulder) and wide receiver Taylor Gabriel (concussion) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. With the Bears having their bye in Week 6, neither Trubisky nor Gabriel are expected to suit up in Week 5 in London against the Raiders. Gabriel also sat out in Week 4 […]
Kirk Cousins Is A Mid-Tier QB2 Against Giants
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins looks to be a decent QB2 option in Week 5. The Vikings will face off with the New York Giants on the road as 4.5-point favorites, so there's a good chance that Cousins will need to throw as long as it stays a close contest. He hasn't played well in […]
Jacoby Brissett A QB2 in Week 5
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett has been one of the most consistent quarterbacks in the NFL this season. In Week 5, against the Kansas City Chiefs, he's a high-end QB2 with QB1 upside. On the year, he's QB 9 in total fantasy points. In two out the Chiefs' four games, they've allowed quarterbacks, including Jacksonville […]
Aaron Rodgers Could Struggle Against Dallas
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers could struggle on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are one of the better teams against the quarterback so far this season, giving up an average of 12.3 points to the position, although that is partially due to the schedule of quarterbacks they have faced. However, the largest […]
Andy Dalton Looks For First Win Of The Year
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton will look to lead his team to its first victory of the season against Arizona on Sunday. While the Cardinals Defense hasn't really made any waves this season, the veteran signal-caller will look to make some noise without wideouts John Ross (shoulder) or A.J. Green (foot) in addition to playing […]
Josh Allen Still In Concussion Protocol
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol on Thursday. Allen has done non-contact work at practice this week, but he's not quite there yet. That could come on Friday, but he's definitely questionable to play in Week 5 against the Titans. Even if he does play, Allen will be more […]
Matt Ryan Poised For A Big Game In Week 5
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is second in the NFL in passing yards through four weeks, trailing only the great Patrick Mahomes. Ryan's thrown for over 300 yards in each game, including a season-high 397 yards against the Titans in Week 4. He has an uncharacteristic six interceptions through four games, which has compromised his […]
NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 5) - Targets and Avoids
Week 4 was finally a week where the underdogs came through. More than a quarter of entries in pools were knocked out thanks to the Rams, Colts, Texans and Ravens all losing. My survivor plays were 4-2 last Sunday, as I managed to avoid the Texans and Ravens, with their opponents, the Panthers and Browns, […]

Air Arians' Offense Is Taking Off
Coming into the season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were expected to have one of the top offenses in the NFL. Through the first two weeks, they averaged just 15.5 points. Over the last two weeks though, they've turned things around to average 43 points following an explosive performance in L.A. Behind the Kansas City Chiefs […]
Unpacking the Fantasy Value in Green Bay
The Green Bay Packers were hit hard by injuries in their Week 4 loss to the Eagles. First, the team’s No. 2 running back Jamaal Williams was taken off the field on a stretcher after a vicious late hit at the beginning of the game. Then, the team’s No. 1 receiver Davante Adams left the […]

Jared Goff Remains A QB2 Ahead Of Week 5
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff found himself in the record books after a Week 4 55-40 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers; he completed 45 passes on an absurd 68 attempts (third most in NFL history) for 517 passing yards and two TDs. While this stat line looks extraordinary, as with most of Goff’s […]
Jameis Winston A Solid Week 5 Option
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston is in a good position in Week 5 to continue putting up solid fantasy numbers with the New Orleans Saints on deck. Winston has surpassed 380 passing yards in each of the past two weeks, and with the Saints Defense giving up 1,117 passing yards through the first four […]
