As we saw in the Detroit game, Jordan Love's deep ball accuracy was the best that it has been all season, which is how he finally got Christian Watson more involved. In addition, Love racked up the bulk of his rushing yards on a designed run that sealed the win for Green Bay.

The Mr. Irrelevant of the 2022 draft is for real. He dissected a solid Pittsburgh Steelers defense on its home field, going 19-for-29 for 220 yards and two touchdowns with no picks. Since the 49ers prefer a balanced attack that often leans run heavy, gaudy fantasy outings from Purdy will be rare.

Corey Clement served as the Cardinals' featured back with James Conner sidelined, rushing seven times for 32 yards. As a 28-year old practice squad call-up, Clement makes for a poor fantasy bet in Week 18 versus the stout 49ers rush defense in the event Conner gets shut down for the season finale.

On the Packers' first offensive drive of the second half in their Sunday night loss to the Eagles, Rodgers was sandwiched by multiple defenders on a sack, and appeared visibly shaken up.

With Mixon out of action for about two-and-a-half quarters, his fantasy managers had to watch as Samaje Perine (82 total yards on 15 touches) cashed in on three Joe Burrow touchdown passes.

Have Christian McCaffrey and Leonard Fournette morphed into committee running backs? Can you trust Kadarius Toney? Is there finally a fantasy relevant Houston Texans wide receiver not named Brandin Cooks? Senior columnist Matt Wilson answers those questions and sifts through ...

With the Bears using Fields on more designed runs during the last month, he has notched a rushing score in three straight contests and rushed for 80-plus yards in three of his last four, which gives the second-year pro a higher and more solid fantasy floor.

On the Bills' final offensive drive during their loss to the Jets, Josh Allen suffered an injury on a pass drop-back where a defender swatted at his arm as he attempted to throw the ball. Allen was seen shaking his elbow afterwards, but remained in the game.

While Kupp isn't out of the woods yet (more testing to come this week), fantasy managers can likely breathe a sigh of relief.

Detroit is expected to have both running back D'Andre Swift and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown back against the Dolphins. Both players are essentially must-starts when healthy, but while the Dolphins have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this year it's still difficult to trust Jared Goff given than his last touchdown pass came in Week 4.

Is it time to dump Aaron Rodgers? Have the Dallas Cowboys replaced a game manager named Cooper Rush with another game manager named Dak Prescott? Is it time to take rookie tight end Greg Dulcich more seriously? Senior columnist Matt ...

Players always tend to be overly optimistic when it comes to their injury outlook, so the fact Tannehill is in a boot is a red flag. Malik Willis would be in line to draw the start in Week 8 versus the Texans if Tannehill can't go, and registers on the 2QB/SuperFlex streaming radar given his immense rushing upside.

Will a Green Bay Packers offense that has scored just 10 points in its last six quarters continue to struggle? Are Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon still must-start guys? Is Bailey Zappe a legit plug-and-play bye-week replacement? Is ...
