Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers - Week 15
The first week of the fantasy playoffs in almost in the books, and if you're fortunate enough to have advanced then it's already time to start thinking about Week 15 lineups, especially for those who stream quarterbacks. Luckily, there are plenty of viable options available as eliminated owners have stopped making moves, and if you […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 15 Lightning Round
An injury-laden Week 14 decided many matchups, with several big names going down in a Red Wedding-esque affair. Not only was Josh Jacobs was a late inactive, but Jared Cook, Devante Parker, Albert Wilson all left with concussions, Mike Evans pulled up with a hamstring injury, Calvin Ridley and Ryan Griffin hurt their ankles, Derrius […]
J.D. McKissic Makes Four Catches Sunday
Detroit Lions running back J.D. McKissic rushed one time for two yards and made four catches for 16 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. McKissic continues to be the passing downs option in the Detroit backfield but isn't getting enough work to warrant starting in fantasy. He has a good matchup with the […]
Bo Scarbrough Grinds Out 65 Yards On The Ground
Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough rushed 19 times for 65 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Scarbrough added one catch for five yards through the air. Scarbrough has completely taken over this backfield as no other Lion had more than two carries. Despite the work, Scarbrough's fantasy value is capped somewhat by […]
Danny Amendola Makes Five Catches Sunday
Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola made five catches for 34 yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Amendola had eight targets, which was tied for the team lead, but couldn't do much with them vs a stout Minnesota defense. Amendola continues to have more fantasy value in PPR leagues as he gets a […]
Marvin Jones Held To 38 Yards In Minnesota
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones caught just three of seven targets for 38 scoreless yards in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Jones hasn't had more than 46 yards in four straight games now and has been reliant on nine touchdowns this season to find fantasy production. Rookie QB David Blough starting for Detroit […]
Kenny Golladay Scores Late Touchdown To Save Fantasy Day
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught six of eight targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Golladay was having a quiet afternoon before a 10-yard touchdown with about two minutes to play gave his fantasy owners something to smile about. Golladay has the talent but will be […]
David Blough Plays Like A Rookie In Minnesota
Detroit Lions quarterback David Blough went 24-for-40 passing for 205 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in a loss to the Vikings Sunday. Blough connected with Kenny Golladay for a touchdown in garbage time but overall played like a rookie who was third on the depth chart most of the season. Blough shouldn't be […]

Wide Receiver Matchups To Target In Week 14
In Week 13, Davante Adams and Tyreek Hill were the high-end options that had great matchups. Adams had a huge two-touchdown game while Hill only came up with 55 scoreless yards, falling victim to game flow as the Chiefs led from start to finish, scoring a defensive touchdown in the process. Several of the wide receivers […]
NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 14) - Targets and Avoids
If there were a dozen people left in a survivor pool this past week, odds are those pools are down to just several.

NFL DFS Prop Picks for Week 14 (12/8/19) - Monkey Knife Fight
It’s late in the National Football League season and there are some marquee matchups to headline Sunday’s Week 14 action. In the AFC the 8-4 Kansas City Chiefs haven’t quite played up to expectations but still lead the AFC West and star quarterback Patrick Mahomes missed some time with injury. He’s healthy now so Kansas […]
Bo Scarbrough A Risky Start Against Vikings
Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough has taken control of the Lions backfield, but he may not get too many opportunities in Week 14 with the Minnesota Vikings on deck. This game could get out of hand very quickly, which would mean limited touches for Scarbrough as he is not involved in the passing game […]
Marvin Jones A Boom-Or-Bust WR3 In Week 14
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones shouldn't have a hard time against a leaky Minnesota Vikings secondary in Week 14, but uncertainty remains with rookie quarterback David Blough starting for the Lions. Jones has hauled in 17 receptions for 206 yards and three touchdowns over the last four weeks, proving to be at least somewhat […]
Kenny Golladay A Fringe WR2 Against Vikings
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay was able to haul in 158 yards and a touchdown with rookie quarterback David Blough under center in Week 13, but a closer look into the game tells a different story. Most of Golladay's production, including his touchdown catch, came on one play in the first quarter. It was […]
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 14 (Top 100)
The fantasy playoffs are here for most of us, so every position matters that much more. IDP spots often become an afterthought or a set-it-and-forget-it situation but it could be that linebacker who has a monster game or that key interception that makes the difference between winning or going home. Look to our streamer suggestions […]
David Blough Not A Recommended Week 14 Start
Detroit Lions rookie quarterback David Blough will get the start in Week 14 when the Lions travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings. With Matthew Stafford (back) unlikely to return this season and Jeff Driskel (hamstring) placed on the injured reserve, it looks like it will be all Blough from here on out. Those […]

Matthew Stafford's Back Not A Long-Term Concern
Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford (back) said his back is healing "as it should" and that the injury won't be something that's an issue in 2020 or beyond. Stafford will miss his fifth straight game in Week 14 against the Vikings, though, and it seems unlikely he'll return in 2019. The Lions are 0-4 in […]

Kerryon Johnson Returning To Practice
Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (knee), who is on Injured Reserve, will return to practice on Wednesday. Johnson can't come off IR until Week 16, but he could be an option for the Lions backfield the final two weeks of the season. With most fantasy title games taking place in Week 16, it means […]
