Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 2
Week 1 of the NFL season is in the books and some major curveballs were definitely thrown our way. On the positive side, D.K. Metcalf, Allen Lazard and John Brown, all of which were mentioned in this article last week, had big games. While Chris Godwin didn't have a massive game for the Buccaneers, he also […]

Woos and Boos - Starts and Sits for Week 2 Lineups
The first week of the 2020 NFL season was definitely a wild ride to begin the season.

Mark Andrews Looking For Another Touchdown
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews looks to build off his effective Week 1 performance on Sunday against the Texans. The 25-year-old had a spectacular start to the season against the Browns, finishing with five catches for 58 yards and two touchdowns. His ceiling for the remainder of the season is high, primarily since opposing […]
J.K. Dobbins Hopes To Build Off Of Week 1 Performance
Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins has a favorable upside on Sunday against the Texans. Although Mark Ingram II will potentially continue to snag some carries, the rookie managed to find the end zone twice against the Browns despite only touching the ball seven times. Dobbins is still a risky option, but he also has […]
Mark Ingram II A Risky Option Against Houston
Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II is a risky play heading into Sunday's meeting against Houston. The veteran had an unfavorable performance during the Week 1 slaughter over the Browns, rushing for just 29 yards on 10 attempts. While Ingram may have a few more solid performances throughout the 2020 campaign, the presence of […]
Lamar Jackson Looks For Repeat Performance In Week 2
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was impressive during the season-opener against the Browns and will look to keep that momentum going into Week 2 against Houston. The Texans Defense didn't impress against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs during the Thursday night matchup, allowing the former MVP to compile three touchdown tosses. Heading into Sunday, Jackson […]

Week 2 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Week 1 is in the books. We saw big upsets, and we saw some teams just steamroll their opponents into the ground. One thing that remained true in every game was that kickers still matter.

Re-Shaping NFL Depth Charts with Week 1 Snap Count Data
A common complaint heading into Week 1 was that some NFL teams had posted depth charts that felt a little...off. Some teams didn't have 11 starters. Some had guys who we knew were in for big roles not listed as starters. Things were not clear. After one week of actual play, we have a clearer […]
Week 2 IDP Rankings (with Streamers and Fades)
That was quick, wasn’t it? We are already on to Week 2, with the pre-season… er, I mean Week 1 in the rearview mirror. It was a reasonably kind Week 1 to our IDP ranks and sleepers, too, with a 66% success rate for our Week1 Streamer and Fade predictions. It was an even better […]
Week 1 Mirages Bound to Disappear
It’s easy to overreact to big performances in Week 1. We see a new set of breakout performers each fantasy season and all fantasy owners suffer from some extreme FOMO at the onset of the season, knowing that if they don’t act soon, they may miss out on one of those breakouts. Below are eight […]

Week 1 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!
In Week 1, the quarterback position was rather stable as Russell Wilson, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray finished inside the top-five. Through Sunday's games, Gardner Minshew II finished as QB12 which surprised most, while Dak Prescott and Patrick Mahomes underwhelmed just a little, finishing as QB2's. Tight end was a little […]
Know When to Hold 'Em... Players Who Shouldn't Be on Waivers
Many fantasy players overreact to results from the first week of games, and at varying levels. Some experienced competitors know how to remain patient after such a small sample size.
