What I noticed about football is that if a team is doing well or if a team is doing poorly they seem to mention the same list of issues. The only difference is the record of the team. I guess that means during football season there is always something to talk about.

Kyler Murray should have a great encore when Arizona visits Tampa Bay. The Bucs have been strong against the run, but more susceptible through the air and have allowed the 4th most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks.

Halloween is here and that means it is time for ghouls and ghosts and other costumes to take to the streets and haunt the early evening on Oct. 31. It is a trick and treat kind of week so I am going to mention all items coming into Week 9 that are treats. In this era of all things offense, there are plenty of treats to hand out.

There is no way that Arizona keeps Chase Edmonds on the bench given his monster Week 7 breakout! Even if he is not announced as the starter, look for Edmonds to handle 15-20 touches and be involved in the passing game as well.

So get out and enjoy. The winter always feels longer in the Northeast. Our summer may have been a precursor to the real bitter cold winds yet to arrive. This in-between time keeps pulling at you until the first frost on that pumpkin on my doorstep.

We should all know by now the Eagles’ defense is funneled toward protecting the run and not the pass. The Eagles have already shown us that the number one receiver each week is allowed to go off for insane production as part of their defensive philosophy.

Welcome back Hunter Henry! The Los Angeles Chargers tight end was one of the lone bright spots in a home loss against Pittsburgh. The Chargers offense should rebound in Week 6 when it visits Tennessee, who surrenders the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.

There is not much to say for the Jets’ passing situation as everything should reset once Sam Darnold is back this week. For those playing DFS this week, the Jets defense is criminally cheap and allows thousands of dollars in savings compared to others.

Although Tevin Coleman returned and carried the ball 16 times, Matt Breida was a major focal point of the offense with 11 carries for 114 yards, three catches for 15 yards, and scored twice. Expect more Breida in Week 6 when San Francisco visits the Los Angeles Rams.

The NFL comes into Week 6 with all of these strange issues. Teams that should win do not. See the Kansas City Chiefs at home. See the Dallas Cowboys at home. Players that were number one in receiving yards are held back. See Keenan Allen.

Sure, you can argue that he’s shown inconsistency especially last season, but his last two weeks are impossible to ignore. If Jameis Winston is your backup quarterback or sitting on the waiver wire, he needs to be owned and started.

Week 5 is a stepping off point for your fantasy football team. No matter what your record, realize that you must always go over and over the waiver wire. There will be a player acquired in the month of October who will propel your team forward; whether it is from an injury or just performance, be on the lookout.

With a Thursday home matchup against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles who have surrendered the 3rd most fantasy points to wide receivers. Start “MVS” as a WR3 or potential flex with a low floor but high ceiling given his deep threat abilities.

It is the time of year people predict the foliage. It goes something like ...“Farmer’s Almanac says the rain over the Summer means beautiful colors”. Then you have those all convinced that wooly bears can predict our winter.

With a home matchup against the deplorable Miami Dolphins’ defense who have allowed the most fantasy points and touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks, Dak Prescott is about as close to a slam dunk as you can get this week!

The landscape for defensive rankings so far have proven to be a far cry from last year. Eventually, the expected teams such as Jacksonville and Philadelphia will progress towards their normal means instead of being below average as they have ...

The 2019 Red Sox have essentially the same players with the exception of 135 innings of relief pitching from closer Craig Kimbrel and bullpen guy Joe Kelly. How did that work out? Well, not so good.

Derrick Henry is posting stats better than many first round picks and should continue his momentum when the Tennessee Titans welcome the division rival Indianapolis Colts. Indy just allowed 219 total yards and three touchdowns to the L.A. Chargers’ running backs.

With veteran quarterback Joe Flacco now running the offense, there should be more opportunity for second-year running back Phillip Lindsay. Although Denver’s offense never reached full steam last season, Lindsay was a rare bright spot with more than 1,000 rushing yards and nine touchdowns in 15 games.

If there is any knock on Sony Michel in this game, it’s that he failed to score from the 1-yard line, and fullback James Develin scored on the next play -- a familiar sight for anyone who rostered Michel last year. Develin will most likely continue to vulture some touchdowns in the regular season, but you shouldn’t let that turn you off from Michel.

Fantasy owners are understandably cautious after Adam Thielen’s production dipped in the middle of last season when Minnesota switched offensive coordinators, but he’s just too talented to pass up at his current third-round draft price.

Ekeler actually had a productive outing against Arizona, but he made one of the worst mistakes a running back can make: he fumbled on a goal-to-go carry. On 1st-and-goal at the 2-yard line, he got stood up at the line of scrimmage, and linebacker Jordan Hicks stripped the ball..

First up are the surging Indianapolis Colts at the Kansas City Chiefs. I sense either brilliance from Patrick Mahomes or another scheme by the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts run-run-run and throw-throw-throw so I see the latter and another road victory this playoff season for the Colts.

In 2018 the NFL was watched more than 2017. But more importantly, an NFL game occupied 40 of the Top 50 slots in the television ratings for 2018. An 80 percent mind-share is outrageous.

My team is not my team. Geez Louise I love DeShaun Watson. He went for 44 points this week! Come on! The problem is the rest of my team has not shown up for the last five weeks.

The New York Jets’ young wide receiver was a valuable waiver-wire add down the stretch last season and seems to be in the midst of another hot streak this season.

I bet big on the fact that wide receiver Amari Cooper would go for (at least) a respectable 30 points after getting 49 with Dallas last week. Especially against Indianapolis, right? …double uh-oh.

Robert Woods has been targeted at least five times and gained at least 70 receiving yards in every game except Week 1. The Rams should return to offensive domination when they welcome Philadelphia, who have surrendered the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers, and was just recently torched by Amari Cooper.

Well hello there.  I am on a bye week and I am fretful.  I take the bye week very seriously and I try to put my best team forward just to see if I can pick a team that can ...

Adam Humphries has quietly posted a decent receiving line over the last eight games by averaging more than 63 receiving yards and scoring five touchdowns in that timeframe. With nine targets in Week 13, take a look at Humphries as a low-end WR3 or deep FLEX.

On the last week of our fantasy football season, RB Phillip Lindsay, RB James Conner, and QB Deshaun Watson went for a combined 70 points. Only Phillip Lindsay went for a 28 burger but that was enough. I have been winning by getting 90 points from my Top 3 players and coasting in.

Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold are not the only rookie quarterbacks making a nice first impression this season. Baltimore rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson has averaged 164 passing yards, 95 rushing yards and totaled three touchdowns in two starts.

I have a decent lineup and I have a fantastic bench. And on that bench is WR Amari Cooper because he has been struggling to score. Amari Cooper goes for a 38 burger and I lose the week.

It can be difficult trusting a talented running back who is clearly splitting his workload, even on the prolific offense of the New Orleans Saints. Although Alvin Kamara may produce more points in your fantasy football league especially in PPR format, veteran back Mark Ingram has been extremely effective .

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.  I consider it one of the greatest holidays because most people get Thursday and Friday off.  How cool is that? So enjoy your Turkey.  Enjoy your stuffing.  Devour that pumpkin pie.  Thanksgiving is a ...

Even with the amount of wideouts in Philadelphia, Jeffery should break out of his brief slump when he visits the New Orleans secondary, who has surrendered the most fantasy points (including most receiving yards and touchdowns) to wide receivers.

Week 11 has arrived.  We are nearing the home stretch and the Bye weeks are getting down to the final count.  Every week is important and sometimes your team cannot find the end zone.  Somehow it becomes critical to try ...

The combination of Belichick and Tom Brady have cast a penumbra over the NFL. I am going to explain it through a list of bulleted sentences. Check this out …

The NFL has been pumping up this game in New England where Aaron Rodgers and company come to play. Fantasy stats of the week come from the Green Bay passing game as they shred the Patriots defense; there's just no way to sugarcoat it.

As we look ahead at Week 8, let’s rewind through several few Week 7 highlights.  Can the Los Angeles Rams be stopped…or even slowed down?  They won their 7th straight and continue as the NFL’s only undefeated team as they ...
