Patrick Mahomes Has Surprisingly Quiet Game
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was not the MVP type of QB that fantasy owners are used to watching.

Tyreek Hill Injured Monday Night
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (hamstring) left the Monday night game against the Chargers in the first quarter and is questionable to return. Hill was targeted twice but didn't have a single catch before he left the game. Obviously Hill's injury and potential donut for fantasy owners could be crippling, but his owners […]

Woos and Boos - Starts and Sits for Week 11 Lineups
If we learned anything from the fantasy scoring in Week 10 is that hitting on the right quarterback can make or break your week.

Give Up on Jared Goff Before It's Too Late
Not long ago, we were discussing the quarterback stable for the 2019 season in preparation for our season-long drafts. Two months and change, that is. Back in September, there were just a couple quarterbacks deemed as locks to be drafted inside the first three or four rounds: Patrick Mahomes, Deshaun Watson, and only for those […]

In fantasy football dynasty leagues, there is always tomorrow. That is what makes the format so compelling. Yes, your team may be out of it this year, but your season is never really over. If your team has four wins, one more defeat and you are likely done for the season. If you have less […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 11
When you can't even get tanking right, you know your football team is bad.

With the […]
Week 11 DFS GPP Value Plays For FanDuel And DraftKings

Travis Kelce Can Be Counted on in Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been reliable for the team and fantasy owners all season long. He's only caught three touchdowns this season, but that hasn't hurt this fantasy value. He's heading into a matchup against the Chargers in Week 11. The Chargers are fairly good at stopping tight ends, but Kelce […]
Demarcus Robinson Has Low-End Flex Value
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has been forced into a part-time role with Mecole Hardman for the third receiver position. The Chiefs have both Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins back healthy and ahead of them on the depth chart. Robinson caught four of five targets for 56 yards in the loss to the […]
Mecole Hardman is a Risky Option
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has seen one target over the last two weeks as his fantasy value is quickly fading away. Hardman was targeted once for a 63-yard touchdown in Week 10 versus the Titans. Both Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins are back healthy, so that has pushed Hardman into a split […]
Sammy Watkins Has Intriguing Matchup Versus Chargers
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins has caught at least five passes for 39 yards or more over each of the last three games. He's been targeted eight or more times during those contests. The Chiefs are looking his way often and Watkins is making plays. The Chargers Defense has been tough at times […]
Tyreek Hill Should Be Elite in Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill looked unstoppable versus the Titans in Week 10. He caught 11 of 19 targets for 157 yards and one touchdown. Getting quarterback Patrick Mahomes back was a huge boost for Hill. They have great chemistry together and that should continue in Week 11 against the Chargers. Fantasy owners […]
LeSean McCoy Isn't Trustworthy Versus Chargers
Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy was a healthy scratch for Week 10 versus the Tennessee Titans. There is no signs of him sitting out for Week 11, so fantasy owners should prepare for him to play. However, Damien Williams has been running the ball very well over the last two weeks. The Chiefs […]
Damien Williams Has RB2 Value for Week 11
Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams has been solid for fantasy owners over the last two games. He gave owners headaches for most of the season, but is finally beginning to pay off. Veteran LeSean McCoy was scratched in Week 10, so that helped Williams get 19 carries with ease. It's unclear whether McCoy […]
Patrick Mahomes Should Cruise Through Chargers
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes returned last week from an injury and threw for 446 yards and three touchdowns. The injury clearly isn't lingering on Mahomes and he's back to being an elite fantasy option. They head into a matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday. Mahomes should have no problems getting what […]
