Week 15-16 Playoff Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Still doing things a little differently this week--for those of you who are still alive. I want to take a look at the playoffs as a whole (and in this case we are considering Weeks 14-16) and determine which DSTs you can ride all the way through and which ones you should stream this week. […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 15

Week 14 was a boring one on Tank Street, with all of the crowd favorites managing to take care of business and keep on losing. We did have another early contender fizzle out after Atlanta won their third game out of five, after starting the season a near-perfect 1-7. With two of their three remaining […]

Ty Montgomery A Non-Factor Against Ravens

New York Jets running back Ty Montgomery had two rushes for five yards while catching his only target for an additional five yards. Montgomery's biggest impact in the game came returning kicks as he took a backseat to Le'Veon Bell in the backfield. With Bell healthy and Bilal Powell (ankle) working his way back there's […]

Jets Defense Gets Shredded, Scores TD

The New York Jets Defense was unable to slow down MVP front-runner Lamar Jackson and the high-flying Ravens offense on Thursday night. Baltimore's offense couldn't have done much better playing against practice cones, as Jackson had all day in the pocket to do whatever he wanted, which was usually throwing to wide-open receivers running free […]

Sam Ficken Dreadful On Thursday Night

New York Jets kicker Sam Ficken missed his only field goal and made just one of two extra points in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Ficken was the hero last Sunday with a walk-off field goal, but had a night to forget in Week 15. To be fair, the kick Ficken missed was a […]

Daniel Brown Makes One Catch Versus Ravens

New York Jets tight end Daniel Brown caught just one pass for four yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Brown got just two targets while filling in for the injured Ryan Griffin (ankle) who was filling in for the injured Chris Herndon (hamstring). Brown is a serviceable blocker, so there's that, but the […]

Vyncint Smith Catches Three Balls Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Vyncint Smith caught three of five targets for 40 yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. The 40 yards are a season-high for Smith who got more playing time with Demaryius Thomas (hamstring) missing the game in Baltimore. Smith has just three games this year with more than one […]

Jamison Crowder Has Huge Night Thursday

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder was one of few bright spots for the Jets Thursday, going for 90 yards and two touchdowns on a team-high 11 targets. Crowder got off to a hot start, making five catches for 72 yards and a touchdown in the first half. He cooled down after that but […]

Robby Anderson Goes For 66 Yards

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson caught four of six targets for 66 yards in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Anderson had a chance at a big day, but a would-be touchdown was knocked away by Jimmy Smith at the last second to keep the Jets out of the end zone. The six […]

Le'Veon Bell Has Best Rushing Day As A Jet

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed 21 times for 87 yards while catching both of his targets for one yard in the passing game. Bell missed the Week 14 game vs Miami and his fresh legs were leaned on heavily in this one as no other Jet had more than two rushing attempts. […]

Sam Darnold Has Another Average Day

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold went 18-for-32 passing for 218 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Ravens Thursday. Darnold also threw an interception and lost a fumble as turnovers continue to be an issue for the sophomore signal-caller. This was a typical game for Darnold, he's had over 300 yards passing […]

Jets Put Ryan Griffin On Injured Reserve

The New York Jets placed tight end Ryan Griffin on Injured Reserve on Thursday and activated offensive lineman Brent Qvale in a corresponding move. Griffin became a streaming TE2 option at fantasy's thinnest position in 2019, mainly because Chris Herndon IV was injured all year. The 29-year-old finishes with 34 catches on 41 targets for […]

Show Me The Money! Stashes That Could Win Your League

Success in the fantasy playoffs is all about planning ahead. Your bench is no longer a safe space for high floor players without much of a ceiling; they won't win you the big game. You need to look ahead and stash players with exploitable matchups in the weeks to come so that you don't get […]

Jets Defense No Longer A Streaming Option

The New York Jets Defense had a nice run of solid matchups, making them an attractive streaming option in fantasy. That portion of the schedule is over and so is the Jets defense's usability in fantasy. The Jets will take on MVP candidate Lamar Jackson and the high-flying Ravens on Thursday night in Baltimore in […]

Jamison Crowder Struggling, But Still Seeing Targets

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder has been ice-cold lately with just seven catches for 56 yards over his last three games combined. Prior to that ugly stretch, Crowder had been playing very well, but quarterback Sam Darnold has been connecting more with Robby Anderson in recent weeks. It's understandable if fantasy owners want to […]

Welcome to another edition of "The Tape Tells All," where I break down some film of an NFL's player performance and try to draw some fantasy football conclusions from that film. This week, I'm looking at New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson, who's shaken off a slow start to the 2019 season by going […]

Fantasy Football Risers, Fallers - Zach Ertz, Emmanuel Sanders, Robert Woods

Whether due to their own play, the play of others, or injuries, players' stock increases and decreases on a weekly basis. Perhaps more than any other, the NFL is a league that experiences ups and downs at a rapid pace. With only 16 games, there’s little room for error and seemingly endless opportunities for improvement. […]

Robby Anderson A Strong Start Despite Tough Matchup

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson has been on fire lately and should see plenty of targets again Thursday when the Jets visit the Ravens. Anderson got off to a horrible start this season but has been red-hot lately with 100-plus yards in two straight games and a touchdown in three of his last […]

Le'Veon Bell A Volume-Based RB2

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell is recovered from his illness and will suit up for the Jets Thursday in Baltimore. Bell missed the Jets Week 14 win with the flu, but has been a full participant in practice and should be good to go Thursday. Running lanes will be hard to come by […]

Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

You have to love fantasy football. You have to, otherwise you would have given up by now. In a week that most likely represented the first matchup of the fantasy playoffs or a must-win in some form for the vast majority of players, we were treated to the following: Alvin Kamara netting three fantasy points, […]

Ty Montgomery Questionable For Thursday

New York Jets running back Ty Montgomery (foot, hip) was limited in practice all week and is questionable for Week 15 against the Ravens on Thursday night. With Le'Veon Bell out last week with an illness, Montgomery had just nine carries for 31 yards and caught three passes for 30 yards. Bell is expected back […]

Sam Darnold Faces Tough Test In Week 15

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold has been a streamable quarterback over the last month, but fantasy owners who had been relying on the sophomore signal-caller may want to explore other options in Week 15. Darnold has played well in recent weeks with soft matchups but this Ravens Defense is a different animal than Darnold […]

Ryan Griffin, Bilal Powell, Demaryius Thomas Out

New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin (ankle), running back Bilal Powell (ankle, illness) and wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (hamstring, knee) will not play Thursday night against the Ravens. Griffin and Powell are both officially out, while Thomas is doubtful to play. Daniel Brown and rookie Trevon Wesco will help fill in with Griffin out, […]
