Wide Receiver Matchups To Target in Week 6

The Week 5 wide receiver matchup article only featured one player that finished inside the top-10, and that was Jamison Crowder who finished as WR-7 on the week. Tee Higgins underwhelmed in a tough matchup against the Ravens Defense, Golden Tate flopped in a great matchup against the Cowboys and Deebo Samuel’s performance suffered due […]

Booms and Busts - Surprise Starts and Sits for Week 6 Lineups

The hits keep on coming during the 2020 season of fantasy football. Each week that passes by seems to bring yet another major talent crashing down due to injury. This past week it was Dak Prescott that was lost for the season with a broken ankle. As much as this injury affects the outlook for […]

Week 6 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

I was riding high after predicting eight out of the top ten defenses two weeks ago, but we saw some craziness this Sunday (along with some top tier defenses postponed or canceled), which caused only a 50% success rate in identifying top-10 units. Miami throttling San Francisco was truly a surprise, as was a Kansas […]

Week 6 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

This NFL season continues to be the weirdest one that I’ve seen in my lifetime. I’ve seen teams come out and get embarrassed by bottom dwellers, and I just watched Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Miami Dolphins absolutely dismantled the San Francisco 49ers. If you ever think that you’re going to be able to accurately predict […]

Breshad Perriman Expects To Suit Up Sunday

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) is on track to return to the lineup for Sunday’s contest versus Miami. Perriman has missed each of New York’s three previous contests, with his return giving former teammate Joe Flacco a deep threat against the Dolphins’ secondary. Optimism does not abound surrounding the Jets’ offense, which […]

Week 6 of the NFL season is upon us, which means a busy Sunday full of opportunities to play props and win with Monkey Knife Fight. The season is now officially in bye week territory, and not just “Covid-19 cancelled the game so we’re calling it a bye” territory. Four teams had byes last week. […]

Chris Herndon A Low-End TE2 Against Miami

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon started off the season with a six reception performance in the opener. Since then, Herndon has seven total receptions over the last four games. It doesn't help that the Jets offense is horrendous and head coach Adam Gase appears to have no idea what he's doing. Herndon will […]

Jeff Smith A Risky Option In Week 6

New York Jets wide receiver Jeff Smith has seen 20 total targets over the last two games. However, he has only hauled in 10 of them for 104 yards, so there hasn't been much fantasy value coming from Smith. He's getting plenty of targets with the Jets banged up, but Breshad Perriman (ankle) and Denzel […]

Braxton Berrios Rapidly Losing Value

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios put together a few big games for this offense early in the season. However, Berrios has been a ghost over the last two games. He has zero receptions on five targets during his last two contests. The Jets are beginning to get healthy with Breshad Perriman (ankle) and […]

Denzel Mims Unlikely To Play Versus Dolphins

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims (hamstring) was cleared for practice on Wednesday. However, head coach Adam Gase has not decided whether or not Mims will suit up for the Week 6 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Mims has not played this season and it seems unlikely that he'd be ready this quick. He […]

Breshad Perriman's Status Uncertain For Week 6

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) was limited during practice throughout the week and is listed as questionable for the Week 6 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Perriman has missed each of the last three games, but it appears he has a real chance of returning for this one. Sadly, the Jets offense […]

Jamison Crowder A Reliable WR2 In Week 6

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been basically the only bright spot for this team all season long. Crowder has finished with over 100 receiving yards in all three games he's played in this season. The Jets offense is awful, but Crowder continues to find a way to succeed. He hauled in eight […]

La'Mical Perine Could Have Expanded Role

New York Jets running back La'Mical Perine could get more involved in the backfield with Le'Veon Bell being released. Veteran running back Frank Gore is expected to be the lead back for their Week 6 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. However, Perine is likely going to serve as the backup behind Gore. Sadly, Perine has […]

Frank Gore Gets Lead Back Duties Versus Dolphins

New York Jets running back Frank Gore is expected to be the lead back going forward. The release of Le'Veon Bell means Gore is most likely going to see more carries on offense. Sadly, the veteran running back won't see much of an increase in fantasy value. The Jets offensive line is horrendous, so there […]

Joe Flacco Avoidable Versus Dolphins

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco will get his second straight start in place of Sam Darnold (shoulder) who remains sidelined. The veteran quarterback was mediocre versus the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. He completed 18 of 33 passing attempts for 195 passing yards and one touchdown in the loss. To be fair, it's not […]

La'Mical Perine To Have Much Bigger Role

New York Jets rookie running back La'Mical Perine will have a bigger role in the backfield alongside veteran Frank Gore now that Le'Veon Bell is out of town. "Perine's definitely going to get a bigger role. Frank, you're not going to lean on him as heavy a load. Getting Perine really involved is going to […]

Digging for Value in the New York Jets Backfield

It was a long time coming and finally it happened. The Jets wanted away from Le’Veon Bell and the feeling was certainly mutual. In a season marred by bad play and worse coaching, the Jets took another loss by releasing their prized free-agent signing from last season. In a total of 21 games on the […]
