Ben Roethlisberger A Strong QB1 In Week 15

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger draws a fantastic Week 15 matchup against the New England Patriots. The veteran quarterback missed part of his team's Week 14 loss due to a rib injury but he was able to re-enter and finish the game. This bodes well for his Week 15 availability. Roethlisberger himself told reporters that […]

Baker Mayfield A QB2 In Week 15

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield is coming off a fantastic real-life game which saw him complete 18 of his 22 pass attempts against the Carolina Panthers. That being said, his production in the fantasy realm was lacking as he threw just one touchdown in the game. Since the team fired Hue Jackson and Todd Haley, […]

Thursday Night Football Matchups Analysis - Week 15

Those fantasy owners who started Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry, despite the tough matchup on paper, were heavily rewarded last Thursday. After failing to eclipse 60 yards on the ground in a game this season, he exploded to the tune of 238 rushing yards and four touchdowns against the Jacksonville Jaguars with an effort […]

Drew Brees Not A Top-Five QB Option In Week 15

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has struggled to post quality fantasy stat lines over the past two games, both on the road. The Saints will travel to take on the Panthers for Monday Night Football against a Panthers defense that really has struggled this season. Carolina is allowing the sixth most fantasy points to […]

Eli Manning Has Tough Matchup Against Titans

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has three multiple touchdown performances over his last five games but will have a tough test in Week 15. The Giants offense will go up against a Titans defense that is allowing the sixth fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Manning has passed for less than 200 […]

[…]

Kirk Cousins Horrendous On Monday Night

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins was dismal on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks. He completed 20-of-33 passes for 208 yards and a touchdown, although the score was meaningless and came at the end of regulation. Almost a quarter of his yards also came on a 48-yard heave to Stefon Diggs in the third quarter. […]

Vikings Fire John DeFilippo After Offensive Failure Monday

The Minnesota Vikings fired offensive coordinator John DeFilippo on Tuesday after the offense failed to do much of anything in a 21-7 loss on the road to the Seahawks on Monday, according to a source. Quarterbacks coach Kevin Stefanski will take over as the interim offensive coordinator with the hope of getting quarterback Kirk Cousins […]

Ben Roethlisberger Doesn't Expect To Miss Week 15

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (ribs) said on his radio show on Tuesday that he doesn't expect to miss a big game in Week 15 against the Patriots. Big Ben was hit hard on a play just before halftime in Week 14 and then didn't return until just over five minutes left in the fourth […]

Russell Wilson Struggles In Win

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson got the win, but it was hard-fought. Wilson was held to just 72 yards passing by the Vikings, and he threw an absolutely horrific interception at the end of the first half. It was Wilson’s lowest passing total in his career, but he made a couple huge runs that ended […]

Josh Johnson (QB, WSH) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Maybe the Skins lucked themselves into a quarterback. The top pick in the recent AAF quarterback draft (don't tell me you're not familiar with the Alliance of America Football), Josh Johnson was brought in to be the backup to Mark Sanchez because, well it's good to […]

Nick Mullens (QB, SF) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers quarterback Nick Mullens has proved his mettle the last couple of weeks after being on the verge of losing the starting job following Week 12. He threw for 332 yards and a pair of scores against the Broncos, giving him consecutive […]

Ryan Tannehill (QB, MIA) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Miami Miracle overshadowed everything else that happened in the stunning victory over the Patriots in Week 14. Before that last-second upset, quarterback Ryan Tannehill had himself a fine day, throwing for 265 yards and three TD. That ranks him better than Aaron Rodgers or Jameis Winston for […]

Eli Manning (QB, NYG) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Not long ago, a road matchup with Washington looked like a tough task. Instead, it was a laugher from the start as New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning tossed three touchdowns and 197 yards in just 22 pass attempts before being relieved by Kyle Lauletta. […]

Derek Carr (QB, OAK) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr is, in this writer’s opinion, better than his numbers have shown over the course of the season. He unfortunately suffers from a dearth of talent surrounding him on the Oakland offense, particularly on the offensive line. While his supporting cast […]

Joe Flacco (QB, BAL) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is obviously contingent on Lamar Jackson’s status for next week, but if Jackson’s injury is more serious than initially believed than Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco will fall into a dream matchup against Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers have allowed the third-most fantasy points […]

Jeff Driskel (QB, CIN) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This one is purely matchup-based, as Cincinnati Bengals tight end Jeff Driskel hasn’t done much to prove himself since taking over for Andy Dalton in Week 12. He hasn’t been bad, but he’s been a low-ceiling game-manager type. His already low-ceiling is hurt with A.J. Green on the […]

Josh Allen (QB, BUF) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team  Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Even though Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen meets the ownership threshold to be a deep-league option, he can be considered in leagues of all depth. Allen has been everything we’ve wanted Lamar Jackson to be since Allen returned from injury. In his three games […]

Broncos Want Case Keenum To Be More Aggressive

Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph said he wants quarterback Case Keenum to be more aggressive to close out the year. “He’s got to take more chances downfield. He would agree with that," Joseph said. Keenum has 15 touchdowns and 10 interceptions on the year, so he's been pretty careful with the football this year, […]

Lamar Jackson Should Be Fine

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson "should be fine" after leaving the end of the game in overtime in the Week 14 loss to the Chiefs with an undisclosed injury. Jackson took a hard hit and had to be checked on the sidelines to finish the game. It was […]

Josh Allen Throws Two Picks For Fourth Time

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 18 of 36 passes for 206 yards and a pair of interceptions in Sunday's 27-23 loss to the Jets. The rookie added 101 yards and one touchdown on nine carries. It was the second straight game that he almost led the Bills to a win, although it was also […]

Mitch Trubisky Must Improve Performance

Chicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky completed only 16 of 30 passes for 110 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in the Bears 15-6 win over the Rams. Trubisky has missed the last two games with a slightly separated shoulder and the rust certainly showed. He consistently was inconsistent in the passing game and a few […]

Ryan Tannehill Sore After Week 14 Ankle Injury

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said that quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is "sore" but "he's walking around" after leaving the Week 14 game against the Patriots with an ankle injury. Tannehill may miss some practice time this week, but ultimately we'd expect him to play in Week 15 against the Vikings on the road. […]

Robert Griffin III Finishes Game Under Center

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Robert Griffin III misfired on both of his passes in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chiefs. Griffin entered the game with 1:46 left in overtime after Lamar Jackson injured his ankle when he was sacked. The 28-year-old missed on a short pass to John Brown and a deep pass to Willie Snead. […]

Matt Ryan Puts Up Numbers Despite Week 14 Loss

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan did not have a great day against the Green Bay Packers in Week 14. However, his final line will have pleased his fantasy owners as he returned a 20 fantasy point day for them. Ryan completed just 28-of-42 passes and threw a crippling pick-six as the Falcons were blown away […]
