Monday Night Football Matchups Analysis: Chiefs vs Bills
What’s better than one football game? Two Football games! This Monday, I am moving from my usual Thursday preview to breakdown the first matchup of our Monday double-header. Originally, this was scheduled for Thursday, October 15th, however, due to COVID rescheduling, it is now being played at 4 pm EST on October 19th. This game […]
Buccaneers Defense Dominates The Packers
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense put up a dominating performance in a 38-10 win over the Green Bay Packers. The unit harassed quarterback Aaron Rodgers throughout the game, hitting him 13 times- including five sacks- and recording two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown. It was a championship-level performance from the unit, […]
Ryan Succop Connects On Five Extra-Points
Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop made one field-goal and all five extra-points in a 38-10 drubbing of the Packers. Succop wasn't needed much in terms of field-goal kicking, as the Buccaneers' offense made good on any opportunities- and the defense took care of the rest. The veteran kicker won't have as much upside as […]
Cameron Brate Held To One Catch
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate was held in check by the Packers, despite his team's big victory. Brate caught just one ball for three yards in the 38-10 win. It looked like the veteran tight end was going to keep pushing Rob Gronkowski as the starting tight end, though he was clearly out-played […]
Rob Gronkowski Paces Team In Receiving Yards
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski put together another strong outing. Gronkowski caught five of a team-high eight targets for 78 receiving yards and a touchdown. His 12-yard score made it a 28-10 game at the half and Tampa Bay never looked back. That makes two straight games with at least 50 receiving yards, […]
Tyler Johnson Catches Touchdown Against Packers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tyler Johnson saw just one target in a win over the Packers. However, Johnson made it count, as he hauled it in for a seven-yard touchdown reception that helped to extend the Tampa Bay lead. Johnson won't be a big part of the offense most weeks, as he'll be competing […]
Chris Godwin Sees Seven Targets In Return
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin returned to the field against the Packers and saw seven targets, hauling in five of them for 48 receiving yards. Godwin was immediately a big part of the gameplan again, as head coach Bruce Arians alluded he would be earlier in the week. It was still a more […]
Mike Evans Blanketed By Packers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans had a rough day against the Packers. Evans saw just two targets and caught one of them for 10 yards, as he struggled to break free of Jaire Alexander's coverage for parts of the game. It also didn't help that the game was largely in the Buccaneers' control […]
Ronald Jones II Picks Up 121 Scrimmage Yards, Two Scores
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II carried the ball 23 times for 113 yards and two scores along with two catches for eight receiving yards. Jones II exceeded 20 touches and 100 scrimmage yards for the third consecutive game, proving head coach Bruce Arians right as he continues to trust him. It should […]
Tom Brady Tosses Two Touchdown Passes
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 17 of 27 passes for 166 yards and two touchdowns in a 38-10 victory over the Packers. Brady stepped up in the first half, as Green Bay jumped out to a 10-0 lead after one quarter of play. The veteran signal-caller was precise in the red zone, firing […]
Leonard Fournette Inactive In Week 6
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers. Fournette was a true game-time decision going into Sunday's game and was widely expected to play, but apparently warm-ups didn't go as planned. This will be the third-straight game Fournette will miss due to an ankle […]

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

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) will warm-up prior to Sunday’s game, but so long as he has no setbacks, is expected to play versus Green Bay. Fournette last received carries Week 3 against Denver, having battled an ankle injury that has limited him in practice. In the case that he does play, […]
NFL Betting Picks For Week 6 (10/18/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Spreads
As fans, we had our emotions played with in Week 5 a bit. There were several COVID-19 cases that made their way around the league, but in turn, we only had one game moved. In our games, Arizona was ready to hit the over themselves, but they pulled back and took it easy on the […]

Beginner's Luck? Chase Claypool, Travis Fulgham, Other WR Breakouts
It sometimes takes rookie wide receivers a season or two to reach their full potential. Davante Adams averaged 465 receiving yards in his first two NFL seasons. Michael Irvin had a total of 78 receptions in his first three NFL seasons. The 2014 season was a special one for rookie WRs. Mike Evans, Odell Beckham […]
Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds
More delays, postponed games, and schedule changes. Get used to the new normal.
