Tennessee has entered into a true RBBC situation, as Bishop Sankey, Dexter McCluster and Antonio Andrews all received an equal amount of carries and success, or lack thereof. Andrews was the only back who recorded over 50 yards from scrimmage with 54 yards on ten touches. Similarly to the opposing Buffalo Bills, the quarterback Marcus […]
Full Story »Frank Gore, Arian Foster - Fantasy Running Back Outlooks
Frank Gore looked good against the Texans on Thursday night, posting an encouraging 22-98-1 line. He was not targeted in the passing game, which is not unusual. Still, Gore remains the only running back of any consequence in Indianapolis. Thus far, his performance has been polarized. Perhaps he should only be started when the situation looks […]
Full Story »Giovani Bernard, Jeremy Hill, Duke Johnson - Week 6 Fantasy Outlooks
It seems quite certain the Giovani Bernard has regained the starting duties from sophomore RB Jeremy Hill in Cincinnati. Bernard managed 101 yards on 20 touches compared to just 25 yards on nine touches for Hill. This game comes to the dismay of owners who spent an early draft pick on a now-backup running back. […]
Full Story »Melvin Gordon, Danny Woodhead, Latavius Murray, Marcel Reece - Fantasy Running Back Outlooks
Week 5 showed another sign of regression for Latavius Murray, who only recorded 57 yards on 16 touches, good for his lowest total of the year. There were a ton of different faces popping up in the Raiders backfield in this contest, as Murray, Jamize Olawale, Roy Helu and fullback Marcel Reece all managed more […]
Full Story »Charcandrick West, Knile Davis, C.J. Anderson, Ronnie Hillman - Week 6 Fantasy Outlooks
Another week, another uninspiring performance from the Broncos backfield. C.J. Anderson continued his poor play with just 22 yards on 11 carries, followed by more poor play from Hillman's 7-21-0 afternoon. Neither of these guys should show their faces in starting fantasy rosters until further notice. In all fairness, much of the backfield's struggles are […]
Full Story »Lamar Miller, LeSean McCoy, Dan Herron - Week 6 Outlooks
In the absence of both starting running backs in Week 5, Buffalo could not muster much of a running game. Though it was reported that Boobie Dixon would receive starting duties, newly-signed back Dan Herron surprisingly led the team with nine carries. Dixon managed 39 yards on ten touches. The leading rusher was quarterback Tyrod […]
Full Story »LeGarrette Blount, Dion Lewis, Chris Ivory - Week 6 Outlooks
Although LeGarrette Blount led the Patriots backfield in carries again this week, Dion Lewis continued to impress in the backup role. When I say impress, I mean this. Lewis looked like a break dancer en route to the end zone against the Cowboys, ducking and contorting his body to score six. On the afternoon, the […]
Full Story »Start Brian Hoyer vs the Jaguars
Houston Texans quarterback Brian Hoyer will start Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Houston Texans have gone back and forth between quarterbacks Brian Hoyer and Ryan Mallet, but it appears Hoyer has earned the spot for the time being. In Hoyer's last two games, he has thrown for 544 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. […]

Sunday night's late game features a classic battle between the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts. The Patriots come into Indianapolis with a 4-0 record while the Colts sit at 3-2. After an 0-2 start, the Colts have rebounded nicely, winning their last three games. The Patriots will enter the game as a 7.5-point favorite […]

Full Story »Wide Receivers Sending Out Warning Signals Going Into Week 6
For the most part, wide receivers are typically more consistent than their running back counterparts. So far this year, that's mostly true as far as the middle-of-the-pack receivers are concerned, with some more notable names struggling as of late. This week's WR Warning Signals piece is going to be somewhat shorter than others given the […]
Full Story »Maxx Williams (TE, BAL) - Soon To Be Fantasy Relevant?
Owned in 14% of Fleaflicker leagues In the last two weeks, Maxx Williams has played 93 out of 150 snaps for the Baltimore Ravens, a snap involvement rate of 62%. Williams's solid run-block rate of 2.7 according to ProFootballFocus is likely a big factor as to why Williams started to see more time (in addition to Crickett […]

Full Story »Luke McCown (QB, CLE) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Risers
The 'Manziel' chants have quieted just a bit in Cleveland. Josh McCown has shown promise in the Browns offense with three consecutive 300-yard games (341, 356, 457), including a career-best 457 passing yards in an overtime win against the Baltimore Ravens. While Gary Barnidge, Isaiah Crowell, Duke Johnson and Travis Benjamin owners were left smiling, especially […]
