If the NFL playoffs began today, the Kansas City Chiefs would not take part. They are 5-4, but currently the eight-seed in the AFC. Yet, they are still the odds-on favorite to reach the Super Bowl. That, of course, has a lot to do with their pedigree and who their quarterback is. But this week, […]

There are only five weeks left until fantasy football playoffs begin in Week 15. Rosters should be taking shape, with most leagues’ trade deadlines likely coming up next week. Each week, fantasy managers need to make roster decisions to put themselves in the best position possible. During the middle portion of the season, that usually […]

The Memphis Grizzlies are off to a disappointing start to the season, sitting 11th in the Western Conference at 4-8. The team has faced turmoil, in large part surrounding point guard Ja Morant. But he has still been solid for the team on the court. During Tuesday’s 133-120 loss to the New York Knicks, Morant […]

The San Francisco 49ers have once again been decimated by injuries in the 2025 NFL season. Despite that, the team is still 6-4 and currently in a Wild Card spot in the NFC. While the defensive injuries keep piling up, the offense is getting healthier bit by bit. With a Week 11 matchup against the […]

The Los Angeles Lakers are off to a strong start to the 2025-26 NBA season. They won seven of their first nine games, despite the fact that LeBron James has yet to play a single minute. Initially, Austin Reaves had taken a giant step forward in James’ absence, dropping a 50-burger against the Sacramento Kings. […]

Through nine weeks of the 2025 NFL season, an argument can be made that the Los Angeles Rams are the best team in football. They rank in the top 10 on offense, both in yards and in points. They also rank in the top 10 defensively in both aspects. That includes allowing just 15.9 points […]

Every week of the NFL season, fantasy football managers need to make difficult decisions. Rarely ever is a starting roster cut and dry. As the league has changed in recent years, the reliance on wide receivers in football has boosted the position’s significance in fantasy. This week, four teams are on bye: the Kansas City […]

When the Chicago Bears brought Ben Johnson in to take over as head coach, many people expected the Bears’ offense to finally thrive. Even though there have been ups and downs this season, fantasy football managers who invested in running back D’Andre Swift have been thrilled. Through the seven games Swift has played, he has […]

Antonio Brown, the former Pro Bowl wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers, is reportedly in custody in the United States. He has been extradited from the government of the United Arab Emirates, per a report from TMZ. TMZ was informed that Brown was accompanied by federal agents upon transport to the New York City area, […]

The Los Angeles Lakers are hosting the San Antonio Spurs in a battle of Western Conference elites on Wednesday night. The Lakers come into the game at 6-2. Meanwhile, the Spurs are 5-1, with Victor Wembanyama looking like an early MVP favorite. Early in the first quarter, Lakers superstar Luka Doncic picked up a steal […]

The 2025 NFL season has been filled with devastating injuries, particularly at the wide receiver position. That puts fantasy football managers in a tough spot, and they may find themselves in another one come Sunday. The Jacksonville Jaguars began their week of practice on Wednesday. But there was a glaring omission: Brian Thomas Jr., who […]

For the first five weeks of the NFL season, the Baltimore Ravens’ defense was laughably bad. They allowed a league-high 177 points over that stretch. That is not a typo. Yes, the proud Ravens defense gave up just over 35 points per game. But as that side of the ball got healthier, their performance turned […]

The Miami Dolphins’ season has not gone as planned. Through nine weeks, they are 2-7 and near the bottom of the AFC. Any aspiration of playing in the postseason is a thing of the past. That reality prompted the stunning trade of Jaelan Phillips to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday. The Dolphins landed a 2026 […]

The New York Jets’ season has already gone off the rails. First-year Jets starter Justin Fields has fallen back into bad habits and is having a terrible season. The defense, which was expected to be competent, has really struggled. Even the injury bug has bitten New York at key positions, most notably with wide receiver […]

The Indiana Pacers’ 2025-2026 season is off to a rough start. Not only are the defending Eastern Conference champions 0-4, but the injury bug has already hit the team hard. Shooting guard Bennedict Mathurin is week-to-week with a toe injury. Point guard Andrew Nembhard has missed three of the first four games with a shoulder […]

Following a four-game winning streak, which created a ton of optimism in Chicago, the Bears were soundly beaten by the Baltimore Ravens last week. Starting running back D’Andre Swift picked up a groin injury in the loss. Despite not practicing to start the week, there was not much concern outside of the building that he […]

In order to succeed in fantasy football, managers need to be flexible. Not only during the draft, but also with their in-season management. With Week 9 on tap in the NFL this weekend, it would be highly prudent for team owners to make the appropriate decisions with their roster. There are four teams on bye […]

The Seattle Seahawks find themselves in the midst of a battle for the NFC West midway through the 2025 NFL season. They are 5-2, tied with the Los Angeles Rams atop the division. The San Francisco 49ers are also just a half-game back in the division. While many teams are sellers as the NFL’s trade […]

The Las Vegas Raiders entered the 2025 NFL season with optimism. They landed a gem of a tight end, Brock Bowers, who set rookie records the year prior. Las Vegas brought in Geno Smith from the Seattle Seahawks to stabilize the passing game. And wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is coming off a career year. Well, […]

Fantasy football is a game of skill that also requires a little luck. For the most part, fantasy managers utilize the players they drafted and hope those players live up to their expectations. Drafting solid running backs and wide receivers is crucial to a team’s success. But the quarterback position is viewed with less importance […]

The Los Angeles Dodgers entered the 2025 World Series looking to become the first repeat champions since the New York Yankees 25 years ago. After the Dodgers won an 18-inning marathon in Game 3, the Blue Jays bounced back to even the series. That set the stage for the biggest game of the series, Game […]

The New Orleans Saints’ season has officially gone off the rails. They are 1-7 following a 23-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last Sunday. Granted, there were not the highest of expectations entering the season. Nevertheless, the losses have stacked up. That has firmly put the Saints in the trade crosshairs of several teams. […]

The Houston Texans got off to a rocky start this season. They were 0-3, coming off a divisional loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Texans’ offense looked miserable, which masked how good the defense had been. However, over the last four games, Houston has begun to resemble the team many expected. They have won three […]

There is a reason that professional football teams only play once a week. It is a brutally physical sport that often leads to players being hurt. Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season was no exception. Savvy fantasy football managers understand the importance of following injury reports to make the most well-informed roster decisions each […]

The Los Angeles Rams are in a great spot midway through the 2025 NFL season. They are 5-2, tied with the Seattle Seahawks atop the NFC West. But not everything has been roses. Three weeks ago, Pro Bowl receiver Puka Nacua suffered an ankle injury in a win over the Baltimore Ravens. The injury cost […]

Fantasy football managers who drafted New York Jets running back Breece Hall in the middle rounds might have thought they landed a ton of value. While he has not been bad by any means, the reasons for pessimism have proven to be accurate. The Jets’ offense is atrocious and getting worse. Former Pro Bowl wide […]

Fantasy football seemingly gets bigger and bigger every year. It has become a multi-billion-dollar business, with hundreds of thousands of leagues across the country. It is a game of skill, precision, and yes, a bit of luck. Sometimes you draft an elite player, and they get hurt. Ask Joe Burrow or Malik Nabers’ owners how […]

The Boston Bruins waved the white flag last season by trading future Hall of Famer Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers. Therefore, expectations were not very high for the Bruins as the 2025-2026 season approached. But after the first three games of the season, the Bruins were atop the Atlantic Division at 3-0-0. Following Thursday’s […]

The best fantasy football managers understand that a championship is not won during the draft, but from solid in-season management. The best players ensure that they have the proper handcuffs at the running back position, knowing how often injuries can derail their stud’s performance. But over the last couple of seasons, the NFL has seen […]

The 2025 fantasy football regular season is halfway complete. By now, fantasy managers likely have an idea of how their team stacks up against the competition. But as Week 8 approaches in the NFL season, fantasy football managers need to be aware of the latest injury reports. That is especially true this week, considering there […]

The Philadelphia 76ers came from behind to defeat the Boston Celtics on Opening Night, 117-116. Tyrese Maxey led all scorers with 40 points in the win, but it was the 76ers’ rookie, VJ Edgecombe, who is drawing all of the attention. Edgecombe finished the game with 34 points on an efficient 13-for-26 shooting. Incredibly, that […]

The Milwaukee Bucks are hosting the Washington Wizards to kick off the 2025-2026 NBA season on Wednesday night. While things have gone swimmingly well for the Bucks through two quarters, not everything has gone smoothly. Late in the first half, Kevin Porter Jr. sustained an ankle injury. He went back to the locker room and […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers will play host to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football this week. It is the league’s marquee matchup for Week 8. That is because of the pink elephant in the room: Aaron Rodgers facing his former team. Rodgers spent the first 18 years of his career in Green Bay, winning […]

It is crazy to think, but we are nearly halfway through the 2025 NFL season. Week 8 is upon us, which means fantasy football leagues are beginning to take shape. This week, six NFL teams are on bye: the Detroit Lions, Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Rams, Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, and Jacksonville Jaguars. That […]

The Florida Panthers are the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions. They won the Cup again last season, thanks in large part to the mid-season trade with the Boston Bruins for Brad Marchand. Marchand spent the first 15-plus years of his professional career in Boston. He created a near-legendary stature with the Bruins for his grit, […]

A large part of winning fantasy football championships is drafting well. That goes without saying. But in-season management is just as important. Players get injured, and fantasy rosters get wrecked with bye weeks. There is no shortage of reasons why the more active fantasy managers tend to do better consistently. NFL Week 7 is nearly […]

The San Francisco 49ers enter their Week 7 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons reeling a bit. Not only did they lose to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week, but they also lost Fred Warner to a season-ending injury. The 49ers are already without Nick Bosa on defense for the year, so the Sunday Night Football […]

When Vladimir Guerrero Jr. entered the major leagues, he walked right into his father’s shadow. Granted, it is quite a large shadow. Nevertheless, for the first couple of years of his professional career, the jury was still out on whether he would truly stand out. If Wednesday night is any indication, the Blue Jays’ star […]

The Toronto Blue Jays entered Game 3 of the American League Championship Series staring down the barrel. They were hammered at home by the Seattle Mariners, losing the first two games by a combined score of 13-4. Needing to win Game 3 to avoid the dreaded 0-3 series hole, the Blue Jays came ready to […]
