Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 6: Jayden Reed, Zay Flowers, Drake London, Jalen Tolbert

Welcome to our WR Matchups to Target column, Week 6 edition.

That brings our total to eight home run picks so far this season. Each week we will […]

Fantasy Football Landmines to Avoid for Week 6 - Rashid Shaheed, Amari Cooper, Justin Fields, more

Fantasy football is all about balancing risk and reward. Sometimes, the players you depend on week in and week out can feel like a safe bet, but there’s always the looming danger of a bad matchup, situation, or poor performance.  These landmines can derail your entire fantasy week, especially if you don’t see them coming. […]

Week 6 Fantasy Football Busts? Players Who May Disappoint Include Josh Allen, Garrett Wilson, Mike Evans, Christian Kirk, Rashid Shaheed, Rico Dowdle

Welcome back to my potential fantasy football busts for Week 6 of the 2024 season! There are disappointments and clear busts. Breece Hall is the perfect example. Fantasy managers are fed up with the Jets running back after back-to-back duds. He's the RB13 overall. Disappointing, especially given the draft capital, but not a bust (ala […]

Fantasy Football Matchups We Love - Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 6 Include Jordan Love, Zach Ertz, Terry McLaurin, Dak Prescott, Breece Hall, more

Finally, the offensive explosion we have been waiting for manifested itself in Week 5. Certain games such as Bengals/Ravens or Jaguars/Colts provided a lot of fantasy fun. It seems as though teams have finally hit their stride as players and coaches get acclimated to the regular season. In an age where it is uncommon for […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays, and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 6 - Jalen Tolbert, Braelon Allen, Alec Pierce and More!

The injuries continue to pile up. Another week, more big receivers missing time. It is very frustrating, but as I said earlier in the season, you just have to stay afloat. You do not need to have the best record or the most points.  If you are able to stay around .500 until your team […]

The NFL season marches forward, and another week of football is upon us. We have done pretty well correctly identifying boom/bust plays so far. Week 5, however, was not kind to us.

Wide Receiver Sleepers, Risers, Fantasy Football Breakouts - Targets, Air Yards, Snaps Trends Analysis For Week 6 (2024)

Targets are paramount when it comes to evaluating pass-catchers for fantasy football. There are no air yards, receiving yards, receptions, or touchdowns without first earning a target.

Week 4's Rookie Report told you to urgently buy Jacksonville Jaguars freshman wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. We sure hope you did.

Cam Little A Solid Option In Week 6 Against Bears

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little might have a tougher time against the Chicago Bears in London than he did in Week 5 against the Indianapolis Colts. The Jaguars put up 37 points against the Colts, giving Little a 13-point performance. The rookie kicker now has two straight weeks of double-digit fantasy production. Little has been […]

Jaguars D/ST Not Worth Starting In Week 6

The Jacksonville Jaguars defense/special teams unit is best left out of starting lineups in most leagues even with a decent London matchup with the Chicago Bears. The Jaguars defense just hasn't cut it both from an NFL and fantasy football standpoint. They are coming off allowing 34 points to Joe Flacco and the Indianapolis Colts, […]

Christian Kirk Downgraded To Flex Against Tough Bears Secondary

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk is still a decent starting option in a Week 6 trip to London, but is a bit risky of a play against a tough Chicago Bears secondary. With the potential returns of wide receiver Gabe Davis and tight end Evan Engram, Kirk could suddenly have much more competition for […]

Brian Thomas Jr. A Must-Start Despite Tough Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is too talented to bench despite a tough Week 6 matchup with the Chicago Bears in London. BTJ is coming off a five-catch, 122-yard, and one-touchdown performance against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Although the Colts secondary is one of the worst in the league while the […]

Tank Bigsby An Intriguing Option Against Bears

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby has decent upside in Week 6 against the Chicago Bears in London. Bigsby is coming off 101 rushing yards against the Colts, and with Travis Etienne Jr. banged up, could be in for another big day this Sunday. He faces the Bears strong defense, but they are better against […]

Gabe Davis Gets Questionable Tag

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is officially listed as questionable for the team's Week 6 matchup against the Chicago Bears in London. Last week, a shoulder injury plagued the 25-year-old, but he was healthy enough to play in the victory over the Colts. This week, it's a knee injury forcing him to record […]

Travis Etienne Jr. Limited Upside Against Bears Due To Shoulder Injury

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (shoulder) was limited in practice all week with a shoulder injury but will play through it, just as he did in Week 5, after being removed from the final injury report. He faces the Chicago Bears, who have been great on defense, but mainly against the pass. The […]

Evan Engram Questionable For Trip Across The Pond

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant for the third straight practice ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup against the Chicago Bears. It's Engram's first whole week of practice since Week 2, when he injured his hamstring in pre-game warmups before Jacksonville's 18-13 loss to the Browns. He'll […]

Trevor Lawrence With Difficult Matchup In Week 6

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence faces off with the Chicago Bears in Week 6, a defense that has been one of the best against the pass in the NFL so far. While the Jaguars offense has looked better lately, the Bears are a different animal than the porous Indianapolis Colts defense Lawrence torched for 371 […]
