Running Back (RB) Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 16 (2024)
I may be crazy, but I'm no ordinary fool. Right now, with a fantasy championship birth on the line, there is no back I'd rather have in my fantasy lineup than Chase Brown. That includes Saquon Barkley. There's no way Joe Burrow is going to try the "Tush Push." Brown and Barkley, for that matter, […]
Sincere McCormick Produces Little, Then Exits Contest With Injury
Las Vegas Raiders running back Sincere McCormick (ankle) carried the ball seven times for eight rushing yards and caught two passes for 17 yards against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15 before having his leg trapped under a defender's tackle and awkwardly bending enough to cause an injury. He was initially said to be questionable, […]
Ameer Abdullah Has Another Big Fantasy Day
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ameer Abdullah got a bigger role due to the injury to RB Sincere McCormick (ankle) in his team's loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. He carried the ball three times for just eight yards, but his seven catches on seven targets for 58 yards and a touchdown helped […]
Alexander Mattison Inefficient, Loses Crucial Fumble In Relief Effort
Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison showed the world why he was benched for Sincere McCormick (ankle) by fumbling the ball into the end zone in his team's Week 15 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The opposing defense wasn't able to recover the loose ball, but it still counted for a safety. Mattison ended […]
Tre Tucker Unproductive In Week 15 Loss
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker caught two of his three targets for 18 yards and didn't record a rush in his team's loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. He's becoming an afterthought in this offense, though the offense was mostly an afterthought anyway overall. Without QB Aidan O'Connell (knee) leading the […]
Raiders D/ST Latest Beneficiary Of Falcons Ineptitude In Week 15
Somehow, despite being loaded with talent, the Atlanta Falcons offense continues to underwhelm lately, and the Las Vegas Raiders defense/special teams benefitted from that by scoring nine fantasy points on Monday. They sacked quarterback Kirk Cousins three times, intercepted him once, and allowed just 13 points and 261 total yards of offense in a loss. […]
Daniel Carlson Makes One Long Field Goal, Has Extra Point Blocked In Week 15
Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson nailed a 52-yard field goal with 11:44 left in the second quarter in his team's loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. He didn't get another chance to kick until an extra point attempt late in the fourth quarter, but that try was blocked. That's not 100% his […]
Jakobi Meyers Catches Five Passes In Loss
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers simply wasn't thrown the ball enough by quarterback Desmond Ridder in the team's 15-9 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night. Though Meyers ended up with nine targets, Ridder took too long to start getting the ball into one of his best playmaker's hands. Meyers is a […]
Desmond Ridder Struggles In Week 15 Loss
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Desmond Ridder attempted 39 passes and completed 23 throws for 208 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in Monday's loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Unsurprisingly, he didn't throw his first TD pass until the game was nearly out of reach -- it happened with under three minutes left in the fourth […]
Brock Bowers Has Pedestrian Night In Week 15
Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers was targeted just six times and caught three passes for 35 yards in the Monday night loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Quarterback Desmond Ridder, who was starting in place of the injured Aidan O'Connell (knee), simply did not look the rookie sensation's way many times. Ridder has […]

Scott Turner A Top Choice For Bill Belichick's Staff
Las Vegas Raiders offensive coordinator Scott Turner is reportedly the top choice for Bill Belichick's OC vacancy at North Carolina.

Desmond Ridder Still Not On Fantasy Radar Vs. Falcons
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Desmond Ridder is not a starting option in fantasy, even if he ends up playing Monday against the Atlanta Falcons. Raiders starter Aidan O'Connell (knee) is questionable, and with Gardner Minshew II (collarbone) out for the season, Ridder would start if O'Connell cannot. The former Cincinnati Bearcat is on his third […]
Maxx Crosby Confirms His Season Is Over
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Las Vegas Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby (ankle) will undergo season-ending surgery, with the multi-time Pro Bowler also confirming the news in a heartfelt social media post. The Raiders season has been a disaster. But this could be the worst news of all, so the team will go the rest […]
Alexander Mattison Will Serve As The Backup, Not Worth Starting In Fantasy
Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) practiced fully three days in a row leading up to his team's Week 15 game against the Atlanta Falcons. He will be the backup to lead RB Sincere McCormick, so he's probably not worth starting. He's averaged just 3.3 yards per carry so far this year, and […]
Daniel Carlson A Deep-League Option In Week 15
Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson made two short field goals and an extra point attempt in Week 14 after a terrible day in Week 13 that saw him miss three long field goals. He's an accurate kicker below those long distances, but the misses lower his value ahead of a Week 15 matchup with […]
Raiders D/ST Not Worth Starting Without Maxx Crosby
The Las Vegas Raiders D/ST is not worth starting in Week 15, nor have they been all season. They're the No. 31 rated defense on Sleeper, and outside of extremely deep or exotic leagues, there's no reason to put them in starting lineups for Monday, when they face the Atlanta Falcons. There are better options […]
