Week 8 was an absolute nightmare for quarterback streaming. Very few potential streamers cracked the top 12 QBs, and the top of the charts was dominated by Drew Brees and Eli Manning, who combined for 13 TD passes. They were obviously outlier performances, but they absolutely sank any streaming strategy if you faced them. Let’s get to the recap.

Dreams are weird. It’s your unconscious vacillating between trying to make you feel like you’re on top of the world and having an unusual sexual encounter and falling down a well and in a building that’s wobbling because it’s so windy outside. My nightmares used to always be the same…. Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership LevelsAlready a member? Log...

It’s time to rewind the clock here at RotoViz and review the winning lineup from Wednesday’s $1M Return to the Court over on DraftKings. Although this contest happened yesterday, in all reality, it is in the past so I am allowed to count this as my throwback Thursday. For anyone who knows me, you know I despise this made-up weekly social media tradition, but I…...

Many people believe that Tavon Austin’s NFL career has been a huge failure. The former seventh overall pick has largely underwhelmed in his first two seasons, producing only 1,035 yards and seven total TDs. He failed to register a receiving touchdown last year, and only had 242 receiving yards. At 5-8, 176 pounds, the odds have always been stacked against Austin. Many believed he was too…...

Week 8 was a fantasy football celebration for many owners, but was catastrophic for others from an injury perspective. In the “Tecmo Bowl in the Bayou,“ Drew Brees and Eli Manning singlehandedly won fantasy matchups. Five quarterbacks threw for 350 yards or more. Seven threw for three TDs or more. Ten wide receivers totaled 100-plus yards, and eight scored two touchdowns or more. But Le’Veon Bell, Steve…...

The RotoViz writers got together to brainstorm some under the radar players who could be difference makers during the second half.

Dontrelle Inman, Charles Kleinheksel From the world of small sample sizes, witness what Inman was able to do in two games last year sans Keenan Allen…....

On Sunday, Dez Bryant was more decoy than Real McCoy, but I’ll stop being coy and come out and say it: It’s still pretty awesome that he’s back. Literally every single player in the NFL was injured on Sunday, and in some cases, players will have a chance to make a Dynasty Impact. Please join me in surveying the post-apocalyptic landscape; you never know what…...

While this week will be remembered for the ridiculous number of injuries to skill position players, there were still plenty of other surprises. Let’s check out a few Week 8 surprise performances and determine whether or not we should expect them to become a trend. Derek Carr – Trend The Raider’s franchise quarterback began his career as a non-factor in fantasy football. However, with the addition of Amari Cooper…...

It’s time for another Wednesday slate. Last week went well for me. If Dante Cunningham could’ve avoided clumsy ass Andrew Bogut and his stupid head in the third quarter it would’ve been an epic opening day for me, but it’s fine. Whatever. It’s not like I’ve thought about it every single day since…. Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership...

I had profitable Week 8 when all was all said and done. I managed to win 63 percent of my cash games on DraftKings, despite getting only about seven points from Le’Veon Bell. My DK lineup managed 155 points. This week could’ve been much better if Bell didn’t go down with injury. However, any week you profit in daily fantasy football is a good week. I dodged the…...
