Kenny Golladay Disappoints In Week 15
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay seriously let down fantasy owners in Week 15. The third-year wide receiver was only able to haul in three catches for 44 yards on one of the most important days of the fantasy year. All the blame can't fall on Golladay though, as rookie quarterback David Blough was just... Read More
Peyton Barber A Non-Factor Against Lions
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber was quiet in the Bucs Week 15 win over the Detroit Lions. Barber accounted for 30 scoreless yards on 12 total touches. Those in the fantasy semi-finals that chose to rely on him this week were obviously disappointed. The Bucs backfield is a guessing game every week, with... Read More
Ronald Jones II Quiet In Bucs Win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II did not contribute much in the Bucs Week 15 win over the Detroit Lions. Jones touched the ball a total of 12 times and accounted for 49 scoreless yards on the day. Fellow backfield mate Peyton Barber touched the ball the same amount of times and put... Read More
Breshad Perriman Scores Three Times In Bucs Week 15 Win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Breshad Perriman hauled in five receptions for 113 yards and three touchdowns in the Bucs Week 15 win over the Detroit Lions. As a distant third option to Mike Evans and Chris Godwin for the entire season, Perriman was an afterthought in the fantasy community. Fantasy owners who decided to... Read More
Jameis Winston Goes Wild In Week 15
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston rewarded fantasy owners who stuck with him in Week 15 after his terrible Week 14 performance. Winston threw for 458 yards and four touchdowns in the Bucs win over the Detroit Lions. The fifth-year quarterback also threw an interception, which is expected at this point. Even without his two... Read More
Chris Godwin Has Plus Week 15 Matchup
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin could very likely wind up as the highest scoring wide receiver in Week 15 when the Bucs take on the Detroit Lions. Mike Evans (hamstring) is out of the picture for the rest of the reason, and while that might mean that Godwin ends up seeing more of... Read More
David Blough Not A Recommended Week 15 Start
Detroit Lions quarterback David Blough came crashing back down to earth in Week 14 after an impressive debut in Week 13 against a tough Chicago squad. Week 15 will offer up the easiest test for Blough yet in the form of the Tampa Buccaneers swiss-cheese secondary, but it's extremely hard to trust a rookie making... Read More
Bo Scarbrough A Risky Start Against Bucs
Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough has a tough Week 15 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers coming to town. While the Bucs pass defense sits last in the league, their run defense sits near the top, and with rookie quarterback David Blough unable to consistently get scoring opportunities, Scarbrough's value gets seriously capped. Scarbrough... Read More
Danny Amendola Has Favorable Matchup In Week 15
Detroit Lions wide receiver Danny Amendola will have a chance to make some noise this week with Marvin Jones (ankle) placed on Injured Reserve. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and their swiss-cheese secondary are coming to town in Week 15. The Bucs secondary has given up the most points to wide receivers so far this season,... Read More
Kenny Golladay Has Plus Week 15 Matchup
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay is in a prime spot heading into the fantasy semi-finals with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers coming to town in Week 15. The Bucs defense has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers so far this season, and with Marvin Jones (ankle) no longer around to poach targets, Golladay... Read More
Auden Tate To Miss Remainder Of Season
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate (knee) was placed on the injured reserve Tuesday, ending his season. Tate sustained a mild MCL sprain in his left knee in the third quarter of the team’s Week 14 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Damion Willis was promoted to the active roster in a corresponding roster move. Tate... Read More
Mike Evans To Miss Remainder Of Season
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) will miss the remainder of the season. Evans got hurt in Week 14 after hauling in a 61-yard catch at the end of the first quarter. He attempted to walk it off but ended up collapsing due to the pain. Needless to say, this is a huge... Read More
Bo Scarbrough A Risky Start Against Vikings
Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough has taken control of the Lions backfield, but he may not get too many opportunities in Week 14 with the Minnesota Vikings on deck. This game could get out of hand very quickly, which would mean limited touches for Scarbrough as he is not involved in the passing game... Read More
Marvin Jones A Boom-Or-Bust WR3 In Week 14
Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones shouldn't have a hard time against a leaky Minnesota Vikings secondary in Week 14, but uncertainty remains with rookie quarterback David Blough starting for the Lions. Jones has hauled in 17 receptions for 206 yards and three touchdowns over the last four weeks, proving to be at least somewhat... Read More
Kenny Golladay A Fringe WR2 Against Vikings
Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay was able to haul in 158 yards and a touchdown with rookie quarterback David Blough under center in Week 13, but a closer look into the game tells a different story. Most of Golladay's production, including his touchdown catch, came on one play in the first quarter. It was... Read More
David Blough Not A Recommended Week 14 Start
Detroit Lions rookie quarterback David Blough will get the start in Week 14 when the Lions travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings. With Matthew Stafford (back) unlikely to return this season and Jeff Driskel (hamstring) placed on the injured reserve, it looks like it will be all Blough from here on out. Those... Read More
Jameis Winston A Solid Option In Week 14
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston is coming off a very disappointing performance in Week 13, but that shouldn't hold fantasy owners back from going right back to him in Week 14 against the Indianapolis Colts. Winston was only able to pass for 268 yards with no scores last week, but he should have no... Read More
Peyton Barber A Risky Start Against Colts
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber rewarded fantasy owners who were brave enough to start him in Week 13, but a repeat of his two-touchdown performance, or even something close to it, is hard to envision heading into the first week of the fantasy playoffs. The Bucs backfield is a weekly guessing game with... Read More
Peyton Barber Scores Twice In Bucs Win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber rushed 17 times for 44 yards and two touchdowns in the Bucs Week 13 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Barber and Ronald Jones II initially started out sharing the load, but Jones all but disappeared from the rotation after Barber's 15-yard touchdown in the first quarter. Barber's second... Read More
Ronald Jones II A Ghost In Week 13
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II again fell victim to the Bucs seesaw backfield usage. Jones rushed just six times for eight yards in the Bucs Week 13 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After seemingly taking over the Bucs backfield over the last few weeks, this has to be extremely disappointing for fantasy... Read More
Jameis Winston Posts Dud In Week 13
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston let fantasy owners down at the most critical juncture of the fantasy season, completing 21 of 33 passes for 268 yards and zero touchdowns in the Bucs Week 13 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This was the first time this season Winston did not record a touchdown pass in... Read More
Deshaun Watson Tosses Three Touchdown Passes In Week 13
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson completed 18 of 25 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns in the Texans Week 13 win over the New England Patriots. Watson shined in prime time, adding a touchdown catch on a trick play in the fourth quarter to an already impressive performance. Watson spread the ball around all... Read More
DeAndre Hopkins Tosses Touchdown Pass In Week 13
Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins hauled in five of eight targets for 64 yards in the Texans Week 13 win against the New England Patriots. Hopkins was kept in check for most of the game by cornerback Stephon Gilmore, but he was able to salvage his fantasy day with a touchdown pass to quarterback Deshaun... Read More
D.J. Moore Stays Hot In Week 13
Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore picked up right where he left off in Week 12, hauling in six of 12 targets for 75 yards and one touchdown in the Panthers Week 13 loss to the Washington Redskins. Moore has not seen less than nine targets in any of the six games since the Panthers... Read More
Curtis Samuel Scores In Week 13 Loss
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel hauled in four of seven targets for 65 yards and one touchdown in the Panthers loss to the Washington Redskins in Week 13. Samuel would have easily had another score in the first quarter, but quarterback Kyle Allen's pass ended up being badly underthrown, resulting in a 33-yard gain. Sound... Read More
Peyton Barber Not A Recommended Week 13 Start
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber has been given an extremely inconsistent workload since the Bucs bye. He has carried the ball 10 times or more in three games, and four times or less in two games. Barber doesn't have the most daunting matchup in Week 13 with the Jacksonville Jaguars on deck, but... Read More
Jameis Winston A Mid-Range QB1 Against Jags
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston's play has been volatile for the Bucs this season, but he has done more than enough for fantasy owners. Winston is coming off an excellent performance against the Falcons where he completed 18-of-26 passes for 313 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions. The interceptions are almost a given for... Read More
Ronald Jones II An RB3 In Week 13
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II is the man to own at the moment in the Bucs backfield. Jones has seen at least 11 carries in all but one game since the bye, which at least somewhat solidifies him as the top option. He will have a great opportunity this week, as the... Read More
David Blough Posts Solid Effort In Week 13 Loss
Detroit Lions rookie quarterback David Blough impressed in his first-ever game action, completing 22 of 38 passes for 280 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the Lions Thanksgiving Day loss to the Bears. Blough shocked everyone with a 75-yard bomb to wide receiver Kenny Golladay on the opening drive. He then followed it up... Read More
Bo Scarbrough Keeps On Trucking
Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough rushed 21 times for 83 yards in the Lions Week 13 loss to the Bears. Scarbrough did post a 22-yard run on the day, which was technically his longest, but it was called back due to an illegal block by Kenny Golladay. Scarborough has taken control of the Lions...
