Tyreek Hill Seeks Touchdown In Sixth Straight Game

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill will look to score a touchdown for the sixth consecutive game in Week 6 versus the Buffalo Bills. The Bills Defense has been pretty solid versus opposing wide receivers this season and have only allowed Jamison Crowder and Cooper Kupp to surpass the 100-yard mark. The Bills have […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Will Look To Bounce Back In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire will look to bounce back against the Bills in Week 6. The rookie struggled against the Raiders in 2 Week 5, but some of that can be attributed to the fact that the Chiefs were trailing and had to pass the ball for most of the second half. […]

Patrick Mahomes Should Continue Strong Season In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will look to take advantage of a tired Buffalo Bills Defense in Week 6. The Bills played on Tuesday and won’t have much time to game plan against the strongest offense in the league and former MVP. Mahomes continues to be one of the best overall option in weekly […]

Travis Kelce Should Continue To Produce In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Buffalo Bills in what should be a favorable matchup in Week 6. The Bills will have their hands full against the Chiefs offense and Kelce should benefit versus a defense that is allowing 7.8 catches and 83.6 yards to opposing tight ends. Kelce has continued […]

Le'Veon Bell Signs One-Year Deal With Chiefs

The Kansas City Chiefs signed running back Le'Veon Bell to a one-year deal on Thursday just two days after he was released by the New York Jets. Bell sat out the 2018 season after three Pro Bowl selections and two All-Pro nods with the Steelers and looked like a shell of his former self in […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year.

Week 5 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Unlike Week 4 where 17 quarterbacks scored at least 20-fantasy points, only 11 quarterbacks reached that same mark in Week 5. Patrick Mahomes finished the week as the No. 1 quarterback on the week, while Ryan Fitzpatrick finished No. 2 in surprising fashion against a tough 49ers Defense. Travis Kelce finished Week 5 as the […]

Sammy Watkins Expected To Miss Time

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is expected to miss "possibly a couple weeks" with a hamstring injury that doctors are still evaluating, according to a source.

Jimmy Graham (TE, CHI) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: George Kittle is on a league of his own (24.7 PPG).

Travis Kelce Records 8 Grabs

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce led the team with eight catches for 108 yards and a touchdown in Sunday’s loss versus the Las Vegas Raiders. Kelce was coming off of a poor performance from his standards in Week 4, but more than made up for it in Week 5. Kelce along with wide […]

Clyde Edwards-Helaire Held In Check

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire had a frustrating afternoon against the Las Vegas Raiders in a Week 5 loss. CEH was held to just 40 rushing yards on 10 carries and also hauled in three receptions for 40 yards. The Raiders defense was very good in the second half and it showed […]

Tyreek Hill Scores Another Touchdown

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has now scored a touchdown in five consecutive games. Hill only caught three balls on evening for 78 yards and rushed the ball three times for 15 yards and a touchdown.

Patrick Mahomes Throws First Interception

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw his first interception of the season against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 5. Mahomes did throw for 340 yards, two touchdowns and ran for a rushing touchdown. Mahomes also converted a two-point conversion, but was just 22-for-43 on the afternoon. The Raiders defense did a really good […]

Sammy Watkins Out For The Rest Of Sunday's Game

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury in the second half of Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He will not return to the game. He caught both of his targets for 24 yards and a touchdown before the injury. With Watkins sidelined, Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson should […]

Kelechi Osemele Carted Off

Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Kelechi Osemele was carted off the field in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders with what appeared to be a non-contact knee injury. If Osemele misses time, the Chiefs line will take a step backwards, though the skill and talent on this offense is too […]
