Every year and in every sport, a few teams march effortlessly towards the ultimate prize as if it's been preordained.

They look past a lesser opponent and fall victim to the […]

The Falcons and Cardinals also did not disappoint, combining for 67 points […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook, Tre'Quan Smith Ruled Out

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle), tight end Jared Cook (ankle) and wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) have all been ruled out for Week 7 against the Bears. Make sure to remove Kamara and Cook from your lineups now. With Kamara sidelined, backup Latavius Murray will be the backfield workhorse and will have […]

Saints Defense A Good Option In Week 7

The New Orleans Saints Defense gets a good matchup in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears. New Orleans ranks 11th in the NFL in points allowed and seventh in sacks. They'll take on a Bears offense that ranks 26th in scoring and will likely get injured quarterback Mitch Trubisky back on the field. Trubisky struggled […]

Wil Lutz May Have Quiet Day Against Bears

New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz could be in for a tough game against the Chicago Bears in Week 7. Lutz has been excellent, ranking eighth in the league among kickers with 54 fantasy points this season. Unfortunately, the Bears Defense ranks third in the NFL in fantasy points against kickers. In what could end […]

Jared Cook A Risky Start Against Bears

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook (ankle) is currently questionable to suit up for Week 7 against the Chicago Bears after missing two consecutive days of practice. If he does play, Cook gets a stingy Chicago Bears Defense that is surprisingly susceptible to opposing tight ends, ranking 23rd in the league in points allowed […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook In Danger Of Missing Week 7

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) and tight end Jared Cook (ankle) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday and could be in jeopardy of missing Week 7 against the Bears. They'll need to get in at least some limited practice on Friday. Kamara fought through his injuries last […]

Ted Ginn Difficult To Trust Against Bears

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn will face the stingy Chicago Bears in Week 7. Ginn has not been a dependable option with Teddy Bridgewater under center. The 34-year-old has tallied just nine catches for 105 yards and a touchdown in Bridgewater's four games as the starter. Ginn will face a Bears Defense that […]

Michael Thomas A WR1 Against The Bears

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is a WR1 in Week 7, despite a tough matchup against the Bears. Through six weeks, Thomas checks in as fantasy football's WR2 and has seen at least 12 targets in consecutive games. The former Ohio State star faces a Bears Defense that ranks eighth in points allowed […]

Latavius Murray A Good Start In Week 7

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray could have a big opportunity in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears. Starter Alvin Kamara is battling injury and pending the injury reports, looks doubtful for the upcoming matchup. Enter Latavius Murray, who is coming off a game in which he averaged a season-high 5.5 yards per carry […]

Pending Injury Reports, Alvin Kamara A Risky Start In Week 7

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is reportedly dealing with a high ankle injury this week. This ankle injury and a knee injury Kamara suffered in last week's game put his Week 7 status in serious jeopardy. The Saints prepared for the worst by signing veteran running back Zach Zenner. Kamara has tallied 373 […]

Teddy Bridgewater Draws Tough Matchup In Week 7

New Orleans Saints quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is in for a rough Week 7 against the Chicago Bears. Except for his four touchdown passes against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 5, Bridgewater has been an average fantasy quarterback. Through six weeks, Bridgewater has averaged just 217.8 yards per game with 6.9 yards per attempt and […]
