The Cut List – Who To Drop for Week 7?

We're going to get this out of the way right away. No, Kenny Golladay, Allen Robinson II, A.J. Brown, Robby Anderson and Odell Beckham Jr. are not included in this article. They should not be dropped in traditional 10 and 12-team leagues. Have they been disappointing? Absolutely! Undeniably! I get it, if you roster any […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

The quarterback position struggled to provide much upside during Week 6, which unfortunately coincided with the first round of bye weeks in 2021. On the positive side, Dak Prescott was able to give us a rare 400-yard passing day in his overtime win against the New England Patriots. Patrick Mahomes (397 yards) just missed the […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round

Week 6 brought more action to our screens as the bye weeks start to announce their presence.

This column is published early every […]

Sony Michel Expected To Play Through His Injury

Los Angeles Rams running back Sony Michel (shoulder) suffered an injury in the team's Week 6 win over the New York Giants, but it is not expected to sideline him at all. Head coach Sean McVay said on Monday when talking to the press that he still expects Michel to suit up for Sunday's game […]

Jake Funk, Johnny Mundt Land On Injured Reserve

Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Jake Funk (hamstring) and backup tight end Johnny Mundt (knee) will both go on Injured Reserve, according to head coach Sean McVay.

Johnny Mundt's Injury Doesn't Look Good

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay isn't sure how serious tight end Johnny Mundt's (knee) injury is, but he also said "it doesn't look good right now." It sounds as though Mundt will at least miss the Week 7 game against the Detroit Lions, and he could miss more action, depending on what the […]

Rams Defense Puts On The Clamps In Week 6

The Los Angeles Rams defense had been searching for their first signature performance of the 2021 season, and they got it in Week 6 against the New York Giants. The Rams were swarming all over quarterback Daniel Jones as they came away with three interceptions and a fumble recovery. They also added four sacks while […]

Matt Gay Perfect In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay had dealt with some misses over the last couple of weeks, but he turned things around with some perfection in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Gay went 6-for-6 on his kicking opportunities, with five of them coming on extra points. Gay remains one of the best kicker […]

Tyler Higbee Held In Check In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee saw five targets in Week 6, but he wasn't able to do much with them against the New York Giants. Higbee caught all five of his targets on the day, and he was second on the team with 36 yards. That's just not a great fantasy day. Higbee […]

Robert Woods Finds The End Zone In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods looked like he was on pace for another strong game with an early score, but it wasn't meant to be in Week 6 against the New York Giants. Woods caught two of his five targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in the first quarter. Woods was tied […]

Cooper Kupp Explodes In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp had gone through a couple of quiet weeks, but he cut through the New York Giants with ease in Week 6. Kupp caught nine of his 12 targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns. Kupp had been ceding targets to teammates over the last couple of weeks, but […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Scores Twice In Week 6

Matthew Stafford Shows His Efficiency In Week 6

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford didn't have the highest yardage total of the week, but he had a pretty good game against the New York Giants in Week 6. Stafford completed 22 of 28 passes for 251 yards with four touchdowns and a pick. He also added two carries for 12 yards in the […]

Jake Funk Ruled Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Jake Funk (hamstring) has been ruled out of the rest of the team's Week 6 game against the New York Giants. Funk didn't record an offensive stat in the game, making it the third week in a row that Funk hasn't had a carry. His only offensive touch of the […]
