Week 16 Playoff Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Okay, this is it. If you're still alive, you can't afford to miss out at ANY position, including DST. In fact, ESPECIALLY DST. If you've made the championship, you've likely got a pretty good set of skill players, so DST is that one last magic cog that could be the difference between a title belt […]

Week 16 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Week 16 is here, and, for those of you that are still playing for something in your fantasy leagues, congratulations and good luck. For those of you that are just here because you have a passion for kickers that do in fact matter, welcome, and we're glad to have you. Last week, we saw a […]

Aaron Donald Reaches The QB

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald had 1.5 sacks against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16. That gives him 12.5 sacks on the year, which is a fall from grace of his 20.5 sacks last year. Expect him to give it his all against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 17 without playoff hopes […]

Rams Defense Does All It Can

The Los Angeles Rams Defense had six sacks and two interceptions against their NFC West foe in the San Francisco 49ers. They allowed 34 points, which won't help much, but the other numbers were valiant. They'll play the Arizona Cardinals in Week 17, which should be a good matchup. The Rams were eliminated from playoff […]

Gerald Everett Not Looked At Often

Los Angeles Rams tight end Gerald Everett only had one target in Week 16, and it went incomplete. Fellow tight end Tyler Higbee has taken the offense by storm in Everett's absence with a knee injury. It doesn't appear to be changing in Week 17 against the Arizona Cardinals. If you had high hopes for […]

Tyler Higbee Remains Scorching

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee had a game-high nine grabs for 104 yards in his fourth straight 100-yard performance in Week 16. Higbee has doubled his career highs in receptions and receiving yards despite only playing in 13 games thus far. Fellow tight end Gerald Everett returned from injury this week, and he […]

Brandin Cooks Reaches Pay Dirt

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks returned to fantasy relevance with four catches for 39 yards and a score in Week 16. He had been mostly dormant the last few weeks, but he showed some life last week with four grabs for 46 yards. This week wasn't much different other than the touchdown. The […]

Robert Woods Rekindles The Flame

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods remained in his happy place as he led the team with 117 receiving yards on eight grabs in the Week 16 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Woods took a step back last week, but he has been on the best stretch of his career. The connection that […]

Cooper Kupp Hauls In A Score

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp only caught four balls for 31 yards, but one of them amounted to a touchdown. Kupp has fallen out of favor in the offense for whatever reason the last few weeks. He was routinely receiving nine or 10 targets, but it's hard to scratch six targets these days. […]

Todd Gurley Reaches Promised Land Twice

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley's numbers weren't pretty, but he finished the day with two touchdowns. His line was 15 rushes for 48 yards (3.2 yards per carry), and he didn't connect on the two passes headed his way. The Rams were eliminated from playoff contention. Since Gurley's knee situation needed so much […]

Jared Goff Delivers Despite Loss

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff played pretty well for fantasy owners in Week 16, despite the 34-31 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was 27-for-46 for 323 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. What was good for fantasy owners this week might not be so ripe next week because they were eliminated from […]

Greg Zuerlein Planning To Kick Saturday

The plan is for Los Angeles Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein (quadriceps) to play in Week 16 against the 49ers on Saturday, according to a source. Zuerlein didn't get in much practice this week and is listed as questionable for the game, but the Rams didn't sign kicker Brett Maher after working him out on Thursday. […]

QB vs Pass Rush Matchups To Watch - Week 16

Week 16 is here, and fantasy championships are on the line. Some teams head into the fantasy finals as big favorites but others are scrapping to pull off a big win as underdogs. Real teams start at quarterback, and the position is pretty important for fantasy as well. Quarterbacks have changed the game for fantasy […]

Every once in a while, the schedule gods look down and gift us exactly what we need, exactly when we need it. After a grueling 15 weeks and a rollercoaster filled with ups and downs, and even more downs, it's time for all of the league's biggest losers to put up or shut up in […]

Aaron Donald A Low-End Start

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald is 12th in fantasy points from the defensive line position the last five weeks. He has been solid, but unspectacular, with 12 total tackles, five sacks and two passes defended. He'll be a low-end DL1 option against the San Francisco 49ers as well this week.

Rams Defense A Low-End Fantasy Option

The Los Angeles Rams Defense is tied for ninth in fantasy points over the last five weeks. They have had a softer schedule in that span, but the San Francisco 49ers aren't lighting it up either. It's a midrange matchup, and the Rams are one of the final low-end defenses to consider this week.

Tyler Higbee A Solid Play

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee is the fifth-best tight end the last five weeks, and he has played one fewer game than most of them. He averaged 7.8 catches for 88.5 yards and 0.3 touchdowns per game in that stretch. He'll have tight end Gerald Everett (knee) returning this week, but Higbee has […]

Brandin Cooks Not A Good Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks had a miniature rebound last week with four catches for 46 yards. The reason that futile line is a rebound shows you how unproductive he has been the last few weeks. He's not a good start against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16.

Robert Woods A WR3 This Week

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods came back to Earth last week after one of the most productive stretches of his career. Before last week's four catches for 17 yards, he averaged 8.3 catches for 115.5 yards in the previous four games. He has just one touchdown all season. He faces the San Francisco […]
