Jared Goff Worth The Play

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has been inconsistent over the last four games, but he has posted 278.3 passing yards per game. He only has five touchdowns in the stretch, which has contributed to him falling out of the top 20 during the period. The Rams have a midrange matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers […]

The fantasy football talent pool is a lot thinner this week than usual, as bye weeks take out nearly a fifth of the NFL teams from Week 10 play.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) is trending in the right direction to play in Week 10 against the Steelers.

Rushing Leaderboards At Midseason - NFL Next Gen Stats

I guess the talk will never change. "Running backs don't matter." Sure. The thing is, Christian McCaffrey is still up there at the top of the fantasy points per game leaderboard.

Fantasy Football Risers and Fallers - Keenan Allen, Damien Williams, Mohamed Sanu

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis.

The pressure is on, folks. With just four games left in the regular fantasy football season, now is the time to secure high-upside handcuffs and high-floor fill-ins for those players injured or on bye.

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Like it or not, you are probably going to have to dip your toe into the waiver wire this week because there are six teams on bye. Some shouldn't affect your roster in any way (Broncos, Redskins) while others could force you to stream at one or more positions (Texans, Patriots). There is always help […]

Week 9 Surprises? We Must Overreact

In Week 9 several high-end players had exploitable matchups and came through in a big way. Mike Evans, Tyler Lockett, and D.K.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Brandin Cooks' (concussion) meeting with concussion doctors in Pittsburgh went well, but the Rams don't know when Cooks will play again. Cooks has an extensive history with head injuries, so he seems unlikely to be ready for Week 10 against the Steelers even after […]

Wide Receiver / Cornerback Matchups To Target in Week 9

In Week 8, the only unfamiliar faces to crack the top 15 at the wide receiver position were Chris Conley and Hunter Renfrow. Conley's big day came because Dede Westbrook was in and out of the game as he struggled with a shoulder injury, resulting in more targets heading Conley's way. Renfrow was fantasy-relevant because he […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 9

Sometimes two statements can be both totally contradictory and totally true. Technically the Miami Dolphins are trying their hardest to win every game.

And sometimes a professional football game can technically be played by non-professional football […]
