WR/CB Matchups To Target and Downgrade - Week 5

Welcome to Week 5 of the WR/CB Matchups article. This series used to be called "Matchups to Target and Avoid" but is now titled "Matchups to Target and Downgrade." Too many times a WR has a tough matchup and produces anyway. A difficult matchup is not a guarantee that a WR will underwhelm. On the […]

Bold Predictions for Week 5

Bold predictions are always meant to be taken with a grain of salt but ideally, they are not a bunch of takes thrown like excrement at a wall with the hope of sticking. These predictions come with backing to make them somewhat substantiated with the obvious caveat that it's playing into a range of outcomes […]

Week 5 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

As the games concluded on Sunday, I was sure I had a terrible week. The Saints hadn't performed against the Giants, the Bengals fell short against the Jaguars, the Titans somehow lost to the Jets, and Washington laid yet another egg against a beatable offense. Yet, when I checked the Fantasypros DST rankings on Monday […]

Kenny Stills Joins Saints' 53-Man Roster

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kenny Stills signed to the team's active roster on Saturday. The 29-year-old will offer depth and a strong veteran presence amidst a receiving core that lacks an alpha player. After catching one pass for 17 yards in Week 3, Stills was unable to haul in his lone target against the […]

Week 5 Red Zone Alert - Risers and Fallers

It is time to start taking note of the stats. They say numbers don't lie, but that can be deceitful. For instance, a team could have a 100% red-zone scoring percentage, but that is because they have only had two or three red-zone attempts. We want our risers to be the teams and players who […]

Week 5 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2021 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Fantasy managers saw seven kickers who failed to even score five points and another seven kickers who managed to score in the double-digits. Unfortunately for myself, two of those sub-five kickers were on my streamers to target list. A bad week for the streamer picks, but slightly better on the busts. I did, however, stay […]

Cody Parkey - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints kicker Cody Parkey shouldn't be in starting lineups this week. The veteran kicker just joined the team this week after it released Aldrick Rosas and shouldn't be trusted right away in a new offense. Parkey has been kind of streaky his entire career and went 19-for-22 in field goals and 43-for-47 in […]

Saints Defense A Solid Play In Week 5

The New Orleans Saints defense is a solid play in Week 5 against Washington. This unit has been fantastic to start the season, racking up six sacks, seven interceptions, and three forced fumbles in four total games. While Taylor Heinicke has shown flashes of brilliance on the field this season, that has come against weaker […]

Juwan Johnson - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson should remain benched in Week 5. Johnson managed a touchdown last week but has only managed six receptions for 64 yards on 10 targets in four total games this season, leaving his production much to be desired. The Saints do not have a high-volume passing offense, meaning all […]

Marquez Callaway - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway is not a strong play in Week 5 against Washington. Though Callaway posted his best totals of the season last week (2/74/0), the receiver simply hasn't been consistent enough to be a weekly fantasy starter. The 23-year-old only mustered 22 total yards in Weeks 1-2 combined. With Jameis […]

Deonte Harris - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris is not a strong play in Week 5. Harris has been fairly inconsistent in 2021, posting a decent five receptions for 52 yards on eight targets last week while also posting a game with just nine yards back in Week 2. The Saints' offense under Jameis Winston is […]

Alvin Kamara - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is a solid RB1 in Week 5. Last week, the RB posted a season-high 120 rush yards on 26 carries. Overall, Kamara has had an excellent start to the season, posting at least 83 rushing yards in three of four games. As the focal point of the offense, […]

Jameis Winston - Week 5 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston is not a strong starting option against Washington in Week 5. The QB has managed less than 200 yards in three of four games and hasn't been as explosive overall. While it's encouraging the former Buccaneer has cut down on the turnovers with eight touchdowns to two picks, it's […]
