Kyler Murray Loses Starting Tackle

Arizona Cardinals offensive tackle Marcus Gilbert (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Quarterback Kyler Murray's protection will suffer with the loss of his right tackle, and he took five sacks in Week 1. The Baltimore Ravens were one of the best defenses against the quarterback position in […]

The King's Week 2 Buy and Sell Guide

It is very early in the 2019 fantasy football season, but many owners will be reactionary and panic after just one week of action and results. You can take advantage by trying to buy low on guys that are much likely to bounce back quickly and deliver better results in the longer term, or through […]

Week 2 Busts? Players To Consider Avoiding

Week 1 of the 2019 regular season started off with a whimper on Thursday, as predicted, as Aaron Rodgers looked shaky in his new offense, albeit against a strong Bears Defense on the road. But boy did Week 1 finish with a bang in Monday night's back-and-forth affair between the Saints and Texans that ended […]

Sam Darnold Could Miss Multiple Weeks With Mono

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) could miss several weeks with mononucleosis. Darnold has already been ruled out for Week 2's Monday night affair against the Browns. The Jets have already signed Luke Falk to back up Trevor Siemian for however long Darnold will be out. With Siemian […]

Welcome to another season of "The Tape Tells All," my weekly column where I break down the film of an NFL player's performance. The title of this column is a little misleading -- I'll bring in plenty of stats and analytics to back up these ideas -- but the main focus will be on what […]

We Must Overreact Immediately! Week 1 Outliers

Every week of the NFL season players break out with huge statistical performances. Some of these performances come from certified studs that have done it before, some come from players that may be on the verge of breaking out, and some performances are merely flashes in the pan. It’s important to identify things such as […]

Ben Roethlisberger In Good Spot To Bounce Back

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger opens the home portion of the team's schedule with the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Roethlisberger is fresh off of a Week 1 clunker against the Patriots where he went 27 of 47 for 276 yards and interception. However, it wasn't all his fault as the playcalling was questionable and Donte […]

Let's Worry About Aaron Rodgers Together

Death, taxes, and Aaron Rodgers performing for fantasy football. Some things in life are almost certain, but after the opening weekend of football, the crown seems to have slipped slightly. Rodgers and the Packers limped to a road victory against the Chicago Bears, as they struggled statistically. Rodgers finished the game completing 18-of-30 attempts for […]

Throughout the fantasy football season, streaming becomes an important part of winning your weekly matchups. This is especially true when we start hitting the bye weeks.

Jameis Winston Heads To Carolina On Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston looks to turn things around against the Panthers on Thursday night. Winston had a rough Week 1 showing against the 49ers, compiling 194 yards and a touchdown while throwing three interceptions, with two of those picks being returned for scores.

Jacoby Brissett A QB2 in Week 2

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett had a strong Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. In Week 2, he's got another decent matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Brissett's offensive weapons have the big-play ability that makes it easier for him to put up points without downfield throws. He doesn't add a ton of value with […]

Derek Carr A Viable Week 2 Streamer

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr has a juicy matchup versus the susceptible Chiefs Defense in Week 2, making him a viable streamer and DFS option this week. Carr is coming off a stellar game where he connected on 22-of-26 passes for 259 yards and a touchdown versus a stout Denver defense. Kansas City gave up […]

Matthew Stafford Among Intriguing Week 2 QB Options

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, coming off a 385-yard, three-touchdown performance against Arizona on Sunday, could find himself in another favorable matchup this coming week with the Los Angeles Chargers coming to town. It's highly unlikely Stafford consistently attempts 45-plus passes per game going forward, as he has surpassed the 43-pass mark just five times […]

Patrick Mahomes Practicing Wednesday

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is practicing on Wednesday, and head coach Andy Reid said "he feels pretty good." Mahomes suffered an ankle sprain in Week 1 against the Jaguars but is expected to be fine for Week 2's matchup with the Raiders in Oakland. Mahomes was walking with a considerable limp after […]

Dak Prescott a Strong QB1 Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a strong QB1 option for a Week 2 matchup on the road against Washington. Prescott was great in new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's revamped offense in Week 1. He threw for 405 yards and four touchdowns and the Cowboys offense had no trouble moving the ball. Taking on a […]

Ja'Wuan James To Miss Several Weeks

Denver Broncos right tackle Ja'Wuan James (knee) will miss several weeks with a significant knee sprain, according to a league source. The Broncos are happy with the way that Elijah Wilkinson filled in on Monday night against the Raiders, but it's a notable loss for the Broncos offensive line. With an elite defense in the […]

Sam Darnold Misses Practice With Strep Throat

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (illness) was sent home from practice on Wednesday with strep throat, according to head coach Adam Gase. Gase thinks that Darnold will be fine for Monday night against the Browns. While Darnold should perform better than he did in Week 1 against a tough Bills Defense, he's still more […]

Carson Wentz a Top-Five Option in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is a top-five quarterback option in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons Defense poses no threat to Wentz, who made use of his new receiving weapon, DeSean Jackson, in Week 1. Wentz and Jackson connected for two long touchdowns and the duo are a threat to do that […]

Jared Goff Struggling With Pressure, Deep Passes

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has a 29.8 passer rating when under pressure in his last four starts dating back to last year's Divisional playoff round, completing just 33.3 percent of his passes with no touchdowns and two interceptions, according to Next Gen Stats. Goff has performed better while running play action, but the […]

Eli Manning In Another Tough Spot In Week 2

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is in for a tough day against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday after the Bills held Jets quarterback Sam Darnold to 175 yards passing on only 4.3 yards per completion. It’s hard to expect much better from Manning, especially if his top wide receiver, Sterling Shepard, is unable to […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 2

Each week in this column, we'll highlight a few first-year players who are worth keeping your eye on. Not all of the players listed below are must-starts, but all of them are in a position to be viable fantasy options. If any of these names are sitting out on your waiver wire, you should keep […]

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Week 2

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Cam Newton Looks To Bounce Back On Thursday

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton will look to rebound on Thursday night against the visiting Buccaneers. Newton was quiet against the Rams in Week 1, finishing the day by going 25-for-38 with an interception. The 30-year-old threw for 547 yards while also tossing four touchdowns and four interceptions against Tampa in 2018, with the veteran […]

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 2

Well, that wasn't exactly the opening night we were expecting. The first Thursday Night Football matchup of 2019 didn't live up to the hype of the historic rivalry between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears, with only 467 total yards of offense across both squads. Nonetheless, there were some notable fantasy performances from Packers […]
