BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 49% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Zach Ertz has still not scored a touchdown, and is averaging just three receptions and 32 yards per game. The Eagles finally righted their offense against New Orleans in Week 5, however, and Ertz posted five receptions for 60 yards. Those numbers still aren't […]
Full Story »Beltre (Back) Starting At 3B, Batting 4th For Game 5
Adrian Beltre will start once again at third base for the Texas Rangers on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays for Game 5. After starting Game 4 after missing Game 2 and 3, Beltre’s back responded well enough to the nine innings he played on Monday. The 36-year-old will bat cleanup behind Prince Fielder and […]
Full Story »Matt Jones (RB, WAS) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers?
Matt Jones did get a touchdown in Week 5, but he averaged less than two yards per carry (11 carries for 20 yards) and did not come out of the game unscathed. Jones is reportedly dealing with a sprained big toe, with the severity of the injury yet to be determined. It seems we may […]
Full Story »Jordan Matthews (WR, PHI) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers
He also responds to "Drops McGee". Reports yesterday say that Jordan Matthews and Nelson Agholor are working tirelessly on improving their hands, attacking the issue with the JUGS machine at 7 AM. Well, until the issue irons itself out, those JUGS machine catches aren't going to do any fantasy owners any good. Matthews should absolutely […]
Full Story »Travis Kelce (TE, KC) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers
Owners who were expecting a true "mini-Gronk" from having Travis Kelce had their hype train going full speed ahead after a two touchdown effort in his first game, but ever since it's been nothing but disappointment. There is merit to the thought that now he is Kansas City's best red zone option given the Jamaal […]
Full Story »C.J. Anderson (RB, DEN) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers
Last week I said his stock had to be at an all-time low, and I was wrong. He continues to plummet. Week 5 had him facing the Raiders, and in a game where Ronnie Hillman tweaked his hamstring and Juwan Thompson was dealing with a hammy issue of his own, Anderson failed to do anything. He […]
Full Story »DeMarco Murray (RB, PHI) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Risers
Murray owners have to be ecstatic to see 20 carries for 83 yards and a touchdown, let alone seven receptions for 37 yards. Not only was he involved, but he performed. This bodes well for Murray, but it's also important for Chip Kelly and the Eagles' offensive line to show that they can put together […]
Full Story »Andy Dalton (QB, CIN) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Risers
There's no denying it anymore: Andy Dalton is here. Just because he took a little longer than most young quarterbacks to develop doesn't mean that we should always hold his past performance against him. His weapons are present and healthy, and he is flourishing. He attacked Seattle through the air and won, with 30 completions on […]
Full Story »Gary Barnidge (TE, CLE) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Risers
The guy literally laid a touchdown, and it was awesome. He continues to shine for the Browns and fantasy football owners, and he is absolutely in TE1 territory. At some point you just can't question things too much based on his past and accept that this guy is performing well. It's impossible to write this […]
Full Story »Jacob Tamme Developing Chemistry with Matt Ryan
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 9% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Jacob Tamme outperformed Julio Jones against the Redskins, by catching eight passes for 94 yards. Tamme had a 77-yard game two weeks ago against the Giants that included a sweet 41-yard reception, so this 94-yard effort did not come completely out of nowhere. Atlanta […]
Full Story »Peyton Manning (QB, DEN) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers
Peyton Manning failed to break the ten point barrier in Fleaflicker scoring, ending with 22 completions on 35 attempts for 266 yards, but no touchdowns and two interceptions killed him. He has now put together back to back weeks of being very underwhelming. It isn't as though his receivers are missing, and it's actually the […]
Full Story »Mike Evans (WR, TB) - Week 6 Fantasy Football Fallers
So in Week 4 he struggled against the Panthers, but people (myself included) were hoping for a bounceback game against the Jaguars secondary. As it turned out, both Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson did pretty badly. Evans has yet to really have a good game this year. He dropped what should have been a touchdown […]
Full Story »Golden Tate (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Fallers
Tate was here last week as well, and quite frankly the whole Detroit Lions offense can be put here. Ameer Abdullah is officially out of the circle of trust, and he'll have to put a good game in before I feel comfortable inserting him into any of my lineups. Matthew Stafford was benched for Dan […]
Full Story »Eddie Lacy (RB, GB) - Fantasy Football Fallers?
The Green Bay Packers are 5-0, and yet it feels like Lacy has barely done anything. He hasn't scored since Week 1, and has yet to have a 100 yard rushing game. At least Week 4 had him get close with a 90 yard effort though, as this past Sunday he put up a putrid […]
Full Story »Todd Gurley (RB, STL) - Fantasy Football Risers
Last week we talked about how the Rams offensive line has been learning a zone blocking scheme, and while one might have to question whether the recent success of the rushing attack is more because of Gurley or their own chemistry as a unit coming together, you can't question the results. Gurley has looked great, […]
