Le'Veon Bell Still Searching For First 100-Yard Rushing Game

Week 12 Surprises? We Must Overreact Immediately!
In Week 12, several high-end quarterbacks had terrible games due to rainy and/or windy conditions. It was both windy and rainy in the Boston area on Sunday which contributed to both Tom Brady and Dak Prescott finishing with less than 12 fantasy points. There were stiff winds in Philadelphia and as a result, Russell Wilson came […]

Ryan Griffin Catches Touchdown To Find Fantasy Production
New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin made three catches for 13 yards and his fifth touchdown of the season Sunday afternoon. The popular bye-week streamer wasn't doing much, but caught a one-yard touchdown on the team's opening drive of the second half to save his day for fantasy. Griffin has at least 50 yards […]
Robby Anderson Has Rare Solid Day
New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson had four catches for 86 yards and a touchdown in a win vs Oakland Sunday. Finally, says the owner that is still starting Anderson after a long, disappointing season for the 26-year-old receiver. The touchdown was just his third of the season and this is also the third […]
Demaryius Thomas Has 22 Yards Sunday
New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas caught two of three targets for 22 yards in a win vs the Raiders. It was another disappointing game for the veteran receiver who is yet to find the end zone this season. Thomas has had some games with a lot of targets, but they have been too […]
Jamison Crowder Disappoints Vs Raiders
New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder caught just two of four targets for 18 scoreless yards in a win vs the Raiders Sunday. Crowder had been one of the most productive Jets carrying a three-game touchdown streak into the game, but was oddly absent from the scoresheet despite the Jets hanging 34 on Oakland. […]
Bilal Powell Gets Six Touches Vs Oakland

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell carried the ball 12 times for 49 yards in a win over the Raiders Sunday. Bell didn't score a touchdown for the first time in three games but added 59 yards on five receptions to put together a solid, if unspectacular, fantasy day. The bad news for Bell […]
Sam Darnold Efficient Again In Win
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold completed 20 of 29 passes for 315 yards and two touchdowns in a win over the Raiders Sunday. He added 16 yards on four carries and a rushing touchdown. Darnold didn't throw an interception in the game making this the second time in the last three games Darnold hasn't […]
Josh Jacobs Stymied By Jets Defense
Oakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs failed to do much in the team's 34-3 blowout loss to the Jets in Week 12. He tied a season-low with 10 carries as he ran for 34 yards against a New York team that is excellent at stopping the run. The rookie added one catch for a measly […]
