Mike Davis Rushes For 32 Yards
Carolina Panthers running back Mike Davis finished with seven rushes for 32 yards and four receptions for 12 yards on five targets in Week 10.

Rishi Patel 4 years agoWil Lutz A Terrific Starter In Week 10
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz is a solid start this week. Lutz has gone 16-for-17 in field goals this season along with 28-for-28 in extra points. He is one of the most reliable kickers in the game and faces a 49ers team that allows the seventh-most points to fantasy kickers. Thus, he's a solid […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoSaints Defense A Starting Option In Week 10
The New Orleans Saints Defense is a starting option this week against the 49ers. Last week, this unit had three picks off Tom Brady and compiled three total sacks in the demolition of Tampa. Now, they get to play a young QB in Nick Mullens who can always be prone to mistakes. As a result, […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoJared Cook A Low-End TE1 This Week
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook is a low-end TE1 against the 49ers this week. Cook has recorded at least 30 yards in five of seven games this season and has a generally decent role in this offense. Even though the 49ers allow the fifth-fewest points to fantasy tight ends, Cook should still be […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoTre'Quan Smith Not A Starting Option
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is not a viable starting option this week against the 49ers. Smith only had one reception for 14 yards and a score on two targets last week, even in a blowout win over the Buccaneers. On top of that, the wideout has only topped 54 yards once this […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoEmmanuel Sanders A Flex Play
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is a flex play this week against San Francisco. Sanders had four receptions for 38 yards and a score on five targets last week and only has one 100-yard game this season. The WR has been anything but consistent when he has played and his numbers are sometimes […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoMichael Thomas A WR1 This Week
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is a WR1 this week against the 49ers, if he's active. Thomas is still dealing with ankle and hamstring injuries and this situation is worth monitoring.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is an RB1 this week against the 49ers. Though he had a bit of a down week in Week 9 due to a blowout win, the RB has posted stellar numbers in the passing and rushing game this season. He has at least 40 rushing yards in seven […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoDrew Brees A Low-End QB1 This Week
New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees is a low-end QB1 this week, but it's important to note he is dealing with a shoulder injury. Assuming he's active, Brees is a great streaming option this week after coming off a four-touchdown performance in the thrashing of the Buccaneers. In the past five games, all wins, the […]

Rishi Patel 4 years agoAntonio Brown Has Three Catches
After a year off the field, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown appeared in a game once again and finished with three receptions for 31 yards on five targets in his Tampa debut. The entire team had an off-night so it's still hard to assess Brown's value on this offense. Nevertheless, he should be […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoChris Godwin Accumulates 41 Yards
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin had three receptions for 41 yards on six targets in Week 9. The WR dealt with a finger injury that caused him to miss last week but he had a modest outing this week. When he's on the field, Godwin brings huge potential and remains an integral part […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans finished Week 9 with four receptions for 64 yards on six targets. Despite the Bucs struggling the entire game, Evans paced the team in yards and had a decent outing. The WR now has over 50 yards in the past two games and will look to build some […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoLeonard Fournette Has 41 Receiving Yards
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette finished Week 9 with one carry for zero yards and six receptions for 41 yards on six targets. The rushing attack was left behind after the team fell behind early in the game, but Fournette's value in the passing game is better than that of Ronald Jones II. […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoRonald Jones II Has Only Three Carries
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II had only three carries for nine yards along with three receptions for nine yards on four targets in Week 9.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady went 22-for-38 for 209 yards and three picks in the Week 9 loss to the Saints. It was an off-night for the Bucs who couldn't seem to get in sync at all. As a result, this was Brady's worst performance of the season. Nevertheless, the QB has had some […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoIan Thomas Manages One Reception
Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas managed one reception for eight yards on two targets in the Week 9 loss to the Chiefs. The TE hasn't managed more than three receptions or 28 yards in a single game this season and is well off the fantasy radar at this point.
Rishi Patel 4 years agoD.J. Moore Musters 18 Yards
In a shootout game, Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore was relatively quiet, getting two receptions for 18 yards on three targets. It was certainly a disappointing performance for Moore on a day where Teddy Bridgewater and several teammates had productive days. It's worth noting the WR had at least five targets and 55 yards […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoMike Davis Chips in 34 Receiving Yards
Carolina Panthers running back Mike Davis finished Week 9 with one carry for three yards and five receptions for 34 yards on six targets. As expected, Davis' role significantly decreased with the return of Christian McCaffrey and his fantasy value will be non-existent when the elite RB plays. McCaffrey sustained a rib injury late in […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoRobby Anderson Gets Nine Receptions
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson finished Week 9 with nine receptions for 63 yards on 13 targets. The WR continues to enjoy a terrific start to his Carolina career and he saw a season-high in targets in Week 9. Anderson now has at least 63 yards in five of the past six games. He […]

Rishi Patel 4 years agoRyan Succop A Starting Option For Week 9
Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop is a starting option this week versus the Saints. Succop has been efficient this season, going 15-for-17 in field-goal attempts and 26-for-27 in extra-point attempts. The Saints offer a generally favorable matchup for kickers and Succop's great output this season means he is a decent starting option.
Rishi Patel 4 years agoBuccaneers Defense Better Left On Bench
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense is not an ideal starting option this week. Despite the strength of this unit, it is quite risky to trust them against a Saints team that gave them fits in Week 1 and should have Michael Thomas back to join Alvin Kamara and Drew Brees. In addition, struggling QB Daniel […]
Rishi Patel 4 years agoRob Gronkowski A TE1 This Week
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski is a TE1 against the Saints this week. Gronk has been playing effectively the past few weeks as he has three touchdowns in the past three games along with at least 40 yards in five of the past six games.
