You've Got a Playoff Bye, Now What?

Week 13 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!
Week 13 was pretty random as far as quarterbacks went, with Derek Carr, Baker Mayfield, Ryan Tannehill, Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff finishing in the top-six. Patrick Mahomes only scored 19.32 fantasy points but his day could have been much bigger had Tyreek Hill's touchdown been properly called by the officials and counted. Darren Waller […]
Logan Thomas (TE, WAS) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED: 40% of Leagues ANALYSIS: We know that the tight end position is pretty much a one-man wrecking crew (Travis Kelce) and that outside of that very concrete player, it's all a random weekly affair. Perhaps Darren Waller and T.J. Hockenson can be included in that top-tier level, but […]

Dan Arnold (TE, ARI) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: There is nothing like a steady-performing tight end, right? Very right, indeed. But that is 1) a dream or 2) something only Travis Kelce is capable of becoming weekly. That's why you have to ride the hot hand at the position, roster and […]

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker was a perfect 5-for-5 with one extra-point against the Denver Broncos in Week 13. Butker has now been successful on 22 field goals in 24 attempts.
