Blair and I will be taking this Tuesday off from our normal waivers show on the RotoViz YouTube channel, but will be back next week with some new, exciting content as we head down the home stretch of the 2024 season and look forward to 2025. To all of our subscribers and listeners, we are grateful for your feedback and support. Have a safe and…...

“The end is in the beginning and yet you go on.” ― Samuel Beckett, Endgame The Titans had an 11-play sequence in this game that stretched across three offensive drives where Will Levis managed to fumble and take five sacks. During that span, the score went from 17-14 Titans to 20-17 Titans. Overall, Levis took eight sacks, tossed in the customary Levis-6 — this time on an…...

Just when we thought that there was little more Saquon Barkley could do to surprise us this season, he comes out on Sunday night and puts together the best fantasy performance of his entire career. As the engine that powers the Eagles’ offense, the arguments against Barkley rising to the 1.01 in fantasy drafts next year are growing thinner by the week. On the other…...

Welcome to The Wrong Read. This weekly article uses advanced team-level metrics to preview the week’s upcoming matchups. The goal is to try to understand how an upcoming matchup might play out in terms of each offense’s ability to execute their game plan. How successful will they be when trying to pass? How much will they be able to run the ball? It’s impossible to…...

Welcome to Going Deep! This weekly article will make use of charting data, advanced metrics, and other RotoViz tools — specifically the Passing Game Matchup Rater — to help readers better understand the challenges facing wide receivers and tight ends in the coming week. As my process makes heavy use of the Matchup Rater, I’d highly recommend that you set aside half an hour to watch the tutorial/walkthrough and…...

In a year that has been plagued by an unusually high amount of wide receiver injuries, the Rams are perhaps the team that has been hit the hardest. With both Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp regularly being drafted in the top two rounds of fantasy drafts, the team had already found themselves without both in the early minutes of their second game of the year…....

Need a weird name or deep trade option? Shawn Siegele breaks down his favorite fantasy RB plays in the Zero RB Universe. We’ve reached the final week of the regular season in FFPC redraft leagues. The FFPC dynasty trade deadline hits Saturday evening. With these key dates hurtling toward us, let’s start today with a broader look at some of this season’s key developments. Kenneth…...

Before we take a look at the best matchups for the fantasy playoffs, let’s make sure we make the playoffs. We’re close enough that you should consider stashing D/STs that have some utility beyond the current week. Personally, before my leagues’ trade deadlines, I like to optimize for a playoff push by freeing up an extra roster spot and stashing a defense a few weeks…...

It may not have reached everyone, but it is official. It is time we truly acknowledge that Brock Bowers is a name that I, in the context of this column, will almost certainly never get to write about in future seasons. Bowers is on course to shatter the record for rookie tight end receptions — currently 86 — and threaten the single-season record of 116…....

The NFL schedule makers did not do fantasy managers any favors this year by backloading the schedule with bye weeks. With the talent on the waiver wire already scarce, Week 12 and Week 14 feature six teams apiece on bye after the previous high for any week all season was four teams. We are granted a reprieve in Week 13 with no teams on bye,…...

GUIL: It must be indicative of something, besides the redistribution of wealth. List of possible explanations. One: I’m willing it. Inside where nothing shows, I am the essence of a man spinning double-headed coins, and betting against himself in private atonement for an unremembered past … Two: time has stopped dead, and the single experience of one coin being spun once has been repeated ninety…...

Some things just feel destined to happen. It’s always felt like Brock Bowers was going to do amazing things in his rookie year despite the lack of talent around him. We knew we would be seeing Anthony Richardson starting for the Colts again, but perhaps not as soon as it actually came to fruition. And it seems like a near certainty that every year Taysom…...

In the first game of Week 10, fans were treated to watching the Ravens and Bengals go toe-to-toe in prime time. After their first matchup of the season was in the running for game of the year, the rematch raised the bar even further. At the center of the storyline was Ja’Marr Chase absolutely torching the Ravens’ defense on his way to the ninth-highest PPR…...

We’re into the home stretch of the regular season. Very soon it will be time to look ahead at the best strings of matchups for the fantasy playoffs, but not quite yet. As we’ve seen over and over, one QB injury can turn a high-octane offense into a priority D/ST target, so the closer we get to Week 15, the more accurate those targets will…...
