Is Ryan Tannehill Playing In Week 9? Should I Pickup And Start Malik Willis For Fantasy Football?

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has struggled this year. The veteran has averaged only 11.5 fantasy points per game, his lowest average since his rookie season. Unfortunately, the regression isn’t surprising, given Tennessee’s current receivers. They traded away A.J. Brown in the offseason and replaced him with Treylon Burks and Robert Woods. However, Burks has […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 9 - Marcus Mariota, Tyler Allgeier and Terrace Marshall Jr.

After a brutal Week 7 that stole many weekly fantasy contributors from our lineup, Week 8 was much more kind. There were some injury scares, but we escaped in relatively good shape. Hopefully, that holds up moving forward. Even without the injuries, Week 9 is already taking away plenty of our usual starters.  There are […]

NFL DFS Lineup Sleepers for DraftKings, FanDuel - Week 9 Value Picks Include Justin Fields, Kenneth Walker III, Christian Kirk, Robert Tonyan

We've reached the Armageddon of NFL bye weeks here in Week 9 with the Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers, and San Francisco 49ers all not playing this week. Why the NFL has decided to have two teams on a bye some weeks and six in others makes no sense, […]

Dontrell Hilliard Could Be A Factor Against Chiefs

Tennessee Titans running back Dontrell Hilliard could have a role in the Titans' game plan against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. If Tennessee gets behind early, Hilliard could see plenty of receiving work since the Titans will be forced to pass. Hilliard already has three receiving touchdowns on the season, and he […]

Malik Willis Could Get Second Career Start

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis could be in line for his second career start against the Kansas City Chiefs as Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is a true game-time decision for Week 9. Willis passed for just 55 yards and an interception on 10 passing attempts against Houston, and if he starts this week, he'll likely have […]

Robert Woods A Risky Week 9 Wideout

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Robert Woods has been largely unproductive this season, and even though the Kansas City Chiefs allow the third-most fantasy points to the position, he should probably be benched in Week 9. Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is a true game-time decision, and if he doesn't play, Woods' ceiling could be as low as […]

Derrick Henry A Strong Week 9 Starter

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is a top-five fantasy asset at the position through eight weeks, so needless to say, he should be started in any matchup. The Kansas City Chiefs have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to running backs, so Henry should be able to produce his week 100-yards and a touchdown performance […]

Ryan Tannehill To Be Game-Time Decision For Sunday Night

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Sunday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. Tannehill logged limited practices before missing practice on Thursday, so his availability figures to be about a 50/50 shot in a big AFC primetime matchup. Kansas City has allowed the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks, […]

Randy Bullock Not On Fantasy Radar

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock has been far from a high-end fantasy kicker through eight weeks of the season, so he's not a strong option in Tennessee's matchup with Kansas City. With Ryan Tannehill (ankle) banged up, it's likely going to be a lackluster offensive output for the Titans, so Bullock's upside isn't high enough to […]

Titans Defense Far From The Fantasy Radar

The Tennessee Titans defense has impressed in two matchups against the Indianapolis Colts and against the Washington Commanders and Houston Texans. However, the Kansas City Chiefs offense is far more dangerous than any of Tennessee's recent opponents and any fantasy defense/special teams should not be played against it. The Titans possess one of the worst […]

Is Keenan Allen Playing in Week 9? How Do Injuries Affect The Chargers Offense?

The Los Angeles Chargers haven’t had the season optimistic fans and analysts expected of them. A lot of what has ailed them comes down to an underwhelming passing game that has been slowed down by injuries. The Chargers offense looks unstoppable on paper. In his third year, QB Justin Herbert entered the season as Vegas’ […]

NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Top Week 9 Daily Fantasy Football Picks

Week 8 was yet another solid week for this column, as DeAndre Hopkins, Tua Tagovailoa, Jaylen Waddle, Tyreek Hill, Alvin Kamara, A.J. Brown, and Derrick Henry were all mentioned. Tua stacks were massive on Sunday, but the true differentiator came in the form of cheap Panthers like D’Onta Foreman and D.J. Moore. I had a […]
