Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. impressed against the Houston Texans in Week 1, hauling in nine of 13 targets for 121 yards and a touchdown.

Welcome to Week 2 RotoBallers!

Week 2 IDP Start Em, Sit Em - Streamers and Fades for Fantasy Football Defensive Players

Week 1 was incredibly inconsistent for fantasy managers and analysts alike.

Luckily, […]

Mayhem in Week 1. About 60 percent of many survivor pools were eliminated thanks to losses by the 49ers, Bengals, Titans, Broncos and a tie from the Colts.
