Kirk Cousins Is A Decent QB2 Option In Week 6

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins could be in line for a second straight usable fantasy performance in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Stash Running Backs the Right Way

For those who don't know, I am the #AllBenchRB guy and I will reiterate what that means if you didn't peep my primer last year. I believe that your bench should be filled with RBs.

Vikings Defense Is A Low-End Starting Option Against Eagles

The Vikings Defense is a unit that you're generally starting regardless of the matchup, but expectations should be lowered slightly for Week 6's home tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles. Carson Wentz and company rank seventh in the NFL with 28.2 points/game and have a few dangerous weapons in Alshon Jeffery, Zach Ertz, and Miles Sanders. […]
