Kyle Juszczyk Could Make A Splash

San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk has some deep sleeper appeal against the Minnesota Vikings in a thin DFS slate. Juszczyk’s first and second priorities are to pave the road for the Niners dominant running game, but he’s occasionally factored into the passing attack. While his floor is an absolute zero, Juszczyk has three games […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks For The Divisional Round

It was a good Wild Card Round from betting purposes, that is of course if you didn't bet it all on the Patriots. It's hard to picture a time when you've seen New England struggle so much on offense, but Tennessee did what they needed to do. Buffalo completely fell apart in the second half […]

49ers Defense Needs To Bring The Heat Against Vikings

The San Francisco 49ers justifiably enter the Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings as the priciest DFS option. The Niners finished 2019 as the second-best defense by DVOA and boast the playoffs’ best pass rush. Although the defense faltered down the stretch by yielding over 20 points in its final five contests, they will receive […]

George Kittle Could Be A Beast On Saturday

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is worth every DFS dollar in Saturday’s Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings. Coming off his second straight 1,000 season, the All-Pro has surged heading into the playoffs, accumulating 34 catches for 366 yards in his final four regular season contests. While the Vikings pose a tough opponent […]

Deebo Samuel Surging Into Playoff Debut

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel carries positive momentum into the Divisional Round matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. After a slow start, the rookie shined in his final eight games, surpassing 100 scrimmage yards or finding the end zone in seven contests. Samuel faces a tough challenge against the Vikings seventh-best pass defense by […]

Emmanuel Sanders Battling Bouts Of Volatility

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders heads into the Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings as a volatile WR4. In his first playoff action since 2015, the 32-year-old veteran is coming off a four-game stretch where he amassed anywhere between nine and 157 receiving yards. He’ll also draw a challenging matchup against the Vikings […]

Dee Ford Questionable Against Vikings

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Dee Ford (hamstring) is listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the Vikings. Linebacker Kwon Alexander is coming off Injured Reserve since tearing his pectoral muscle on Halloween and strong safety Jaquiski Tartt (ribs) will also return. Getting pass-rusher Ford back as well would be even more good news […]

Tevin Coleman Trending In Wrong Direction

San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman will likely be a distant second option behind starter Raheem Mostert in Saturday’s Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings. Coleman cracked 700 scrimmage yards this year but struggled with efficiency, opening the door for Mostert to dominate touches to end the regular season. Coleman averaged under five touches […]

Matt Breida's Opportunities Will Likely Be Limited

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida sits at third on the rushing depth chart and is a desperation flex in the Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings. Even after finishing the year with over 700 scrimmage yards at an efficient 5.2 yards per touch, Breida has yielded backfield duties to a surging Raheem Mostert […]

Raheem Mostert Playing Well Heading Into Divisional Matchup

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert should carry the torch as lead runner in the Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings. Although the Niners deploy a rushing committee, Mostert emerged as the most consistent option to end the regular season, logging roughly 50 percent of snaps and dominating touches. After breaking out for 952 […]

NFL DFS GPP Stacks for FanDuel, DraftKings (Divisional Round)

Hey there RotoBallers! With the end of the NFL regular season, there aren't any season-long league concerns left for us fantasy gamers. That makes the Divisional Round of the playoffs a perfect time to focus on making some DFS lineups. With eight teams in action on the Saturday/Sunday slate, this is the perfect-sized player pool […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Making His Playoff Debut

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is a contrarian DFS option in the Divisional Round against the Minnesota Vikings. Coming off a strong season with 27 touchdown passes, Garoppolo also battled consistency issues with 18 turnovers. In friendly home confines, he’ll face a surprise Vikings team that ranks seventh in pass DVOA. Garoppolo’s splits show […]

Kwon Alexander Will Return Saturday

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) will be activated from Injured Reserve and will be back on the field on Saturday in the Divisional game against the Vikings, but he's unlikely to play an every-down role after a long layoff. He's nine weeks removed from surgery to fix a torn pectoral and just returned […]

Dee Ford, Kwon Alexander Expected To Return

San Francisco 49ers defensive end Dee Ford (hamstring) and linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) are both expected to return for the Divisional Round game against the Vikings on Saturday. Ford missed the final six regular season games, while Alexander has been on the sidelines since Oct. 27. San Fran's defense has been one of the best […]
