Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Yards Per Carry

Are five games enough to start reading into ROS player values based on performance? Unlike baseball, where certain statistics can start to become reliable or "sticky" after a certain at-bat or innings-pitched threshold, it's never the case in football. It's a game where big individual plays make all the difference and only 16 games make […]

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) missed practice on Thursday. Brown returned to game action last weekend for the first time since Week 1 and didn't miss a beat, catching seven passes for 82 yards and a touchdown against the Bills. The Titans are likely easing Brown back into the practice week after he […]

Darrynton Evans Placed On Injured Reserve

The Tennessee Titans moved rookie running back Darrynton Evans (hamstring) to the short-term Injured Reserve on Thursday, which means he'll miss at least three weeks after suffering a hamstring injury in the Tuesday night win over the Bills. The team also activated defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons from the COVID-19 list. With Evans out for at […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 6 Lightning Round

Week 5 brought some key injuries and we lost the NE/DEN game (with BUF/TEN still up in the air). The biggest injury was Dak Prescott, who was carted off after suffering a compound ankle fracture, but we also saw Sammy Watkins and A.J. Green leave due to hamstring injuries alongside Diontae Johnson's back injury. Also, Dalvin […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Fantasy GMs are to be commended for rising to the unique challenges that have unfolded during this regular season. Injuries to critical players is an unwelcome reality that occurs every year. This is also the case for backs that were expected to operate as RB1s, but have been relegated to committees. However, this season has […]

A.J. Brown Heavily Targeted In Blowout Win

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown corralled seven of nine targets for 82 receiving yards and a touchdown during Tuesday's 42-16 win against the Bills. After sitting out the Titans' second and third games of the year with a knee injury, Davis attracted two more targets than any other Tennessee player Tuesday night, doubling No. […]

Jonnu Smith Finds End Zone Twice

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith caught five of his seven targets for 40 receiving yards and two touchdowns during Tuesday's 42-16 win against Buffalo. The Florida International standout has been one of the fantasy revelations at tight end thus far in 2020, as his five TD receptions in four games are more than he […]

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 21 of 28 passes for 195 yards and three passing touchdowns, adding four carries for 42 yards and a rushing score during Tuesday's 42-16 blowout victory over the Bills. The 32-year-old signal-caller will head into a Week 6 matchup against Houston's 21st-ranked scoring defense. He will be solid QB2 […]

Derrick Henry Runs For Two Touchdowns

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry ran for 57 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries, adding a six-yard catch during Tuesday's 42-16 win against the Bills. Efficiency has not been there thus far for Henry, but he's averaging an enormous 25.3 carries per game heading into a week six matchup against Houston's bottom-three rush […]

Corey Davis, Adam Humphries Officially Out For Tuesday

Tennessee Titans wide receivers Corey Davis and Adam Humphries have both been ruled out for Tuesday’s contest after having tested positive for COVID-19.

Brown, with Cody Hollister, Kalif Raymond and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine all expected […]

A.J. Brown Expected To Play Tuesday Night

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee), who has missed the team's last two games with a bone bruise in his knee, is expected to play on Tuesday night against the Bills.

The Cut List (Week 6) - Time to Let Go?

If you are familiar with this column, you are probably used to seeing three or four players I dub droppable. For this week, I found that many players that fit the criteria (players owned in at least 30% of leagues) are either obvious drops, or that there just weren’t a whole lot of candidates I […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 41% of Leagues ANALYSIS: George Kittle is on a league of his own (24.7 PPG). Then, Travis Kelce, Jonnu Smith, Robert Tonyan, and Darren Waller are all averaging between 16.4 and 14 PPR points per game. Behind those five, though, the TE position is just a mess […]

A.J. Brown Faces Tough Matchup Against Tre-Davious White

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) is trending towards playing Tuesday against the Bills. He's been recovering from a knee injury but he'll have a tough matchup on his hands in All-Pro cornerback Tre'Davious White, so fantasy managers may want to calm their expectations. Fellow wide receiver Corey Davis was put on the reserve […]

Derrick Henry Will Be Well Rested And Ready For Heavy Workload

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry will have fresh legs after a week off, but the workhorse back will face a tough matchup with a tough Buffalo front line that just held Josh Jacobs to under 50 yards on the ground last week.

WR/CB Matchups to Target and Avoid - Week 5

The chart below is a snapshot of each team's cornerback group as it relates to allowing fantasy points. There are inherent flaws within the data compilation of cornerback play. The first being the fact that quantifying a 1-on-1 matchup in an NFL game is unfair because of zone coverages, mental errors, certain passing concepts, and […]

Week 5 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

After successfully predicting eight out of the top ten defenses last week, we may be starting to hit our groove. Some of them felt a bit like gimmes, but the Jets in the top-10 was the subject of criticism and watching the Bills round into form a bit was also nice. The only two outliers […]
