Chris Jones Expected To Have Bigger Role In Super Bowl
Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) should have a bigger role in the Super Bowl against the 49ers after playing just 28 of a possible 66 defensive snaps in the AFC Championship due to a strained calf. "I think he feels pretty good," head coach Andy Reid said. "He didn’t have a setback […]
Demarcus Robinson Won't Practice Wednesday
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (illness) won't practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Andy Reid. Robinson should have plenty of time to get healthy for the Super Bowl against the 49ers in two weeks. Aside from a huge six-catch, 172-yard, two-touchdown performance against the Raiders back on Sept. 15, Robinson has done […]
Biggest Busts of 2019: Tight End
2019 was not the record-breaking season for tight ends 2018 was. San Francisco’s George Kittle (most receiving yards for a TE in a season) and Philadelphia’s Zach Ertz (most receptions for a TE in a season) did not break the records they set last season, although both were fine for fantasy players. Kansas City’s Travis […]
Rushing Quarterbacks Are Becoming Necessary
The 2019 fantasy season is over. We are all thinking about what to do come 2020 draft day. So let me ask you something. What if I offer you the chance of drafting a quarterback who is a lock to finish the season with 270 fantasy points? Would you take him and make him your […]
Mecole Hardman is Quiet Versus Titans
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman was unable to make much of an impact during the AFC Championship game on Sunday. Hardman finished with one reception for eight yards. His reception was technically a jet sweep play that was a handoff on the second drive of the game. However, he drew a big defensive […]
Demarcus Robinson Hauls in Two Receptions
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson was not targeted often, but made it count when he was called upon.

His first reception was a 24-yard catch that helped the Chiefs move upfield for their second […]
Travis Kelce is Held in Check by Titans
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was surprisingly held in check by the Tennessee Titans during Sunday's AFC Championship contest. He caught three of his four targets for 30 yards in the win over the Titans. Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins were the players making the splash plays in this game. DFS players shouldn't […]
Tyreek Hill Finds the End Zone Twice
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was able to find the end zone twice during Sunday's AFC Championship game. Hill caught five of his seven targets for 67 yards and two touchdowns in the victory over the Tennessee Titans. His first score was a 10-yard jet sweep handoff that counted as a reception, but […]
Darwin Thompson Gets One Carry
Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson was not able to make much of an impact in the AFC Championship game on Sunday. Thompson had one rushing attempt for seven yards in the victory over the Tennessee Titans. Damien Williams continues to be the workhorse while LeSean McCoy (illness) didn't play in this one. Thompson […]
Sammy Watkins Ends Scoreless Drought
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins was able to finally find the end zone for the first time since Week 1. It's been a tough season for Watkins, but at least he was able to do damage when it mattered most. Watkins hauled in seven receptions for 114 yards and a touchdown in the […]
Damien Williams Continues His Strong Play
Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams was able to find the end zone three times last week in the Divisional Round battle with the Houston Texans. Williams continued his strong play against the Tennessee Titans in Sunday's AFC Championship game. Williams rushed 17 times for 45 yards and a touchdown. He also caught five […]
Patrick Mahomes Has Stellar Performance Versus Titans
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was phenomenal in the AFC Championship game against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. He completed 23 of 35 passing attempts for 294 yards and three touchdowns. Mahomes also had eight rushing attempts for 53 yards and a touchdown. It was a fantastic performance for Mahomes and DFS players who […]
Tight End ADP Winners and Losers: 2019 Season Review
I've always believed that it is easier to lose a fantasy championship than to win it on draft day. It makes sense, as sure-fire players are expected to reward their owners with a lower risk-factor than the other way around and thus they're always drafter earlier. If they put up a season-long dud, though, you'll […]

Biggest Surprises of 2019: Tight End

Biggest Busts of 2019: Quarterback
The 2019 NFL season is over, and it's time to look back on what happened. 2019 was a year where some quarterbacks -- Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen -- leaped up to the top of the fantasy charts, while other guys faded from where they were expected to perform. Today, I want to talk about three […]

2020 Early Quarterback Sleepers and Draft Targets
Heading into 2020, Lamar Jackson, Dak Prescott, Russell Wilson, and Deshaun Watson will surely be the most-coveted quarterbacks in fantasy football drafts. Similar to Patrick Mahomes in 2018, Lamar Jackson took the NFL by storm in his first year as a full-time starter and set an NFL record for rushing yards by a quarterback. Personally, […]
Strategies that Worked (or Not) in 2019 Fantasy Football
Everyone's an expert before the season begins. Our sleepers are all going to pan out, we know who to avoid, and we'll easily compensate for any bad luck through trades or waivers during the year. Then fantasy football happens. That means everything that can go wrong will go wrong and that high-floor player on a […]
How'd We Miss That? Lamar Jackson's 2019 Breakout
Fantasy football analysts say a lot of things, and often those things turn out to be true. But the nature of saying a lot of things is that sometimes those things turn out to be not true, and sometimes a lot of us say the same thing that turns out to be not true. I'll […]
