Hurts So Good?

The Jalen Hurts show finally arrived in Philadelphia and was met with rave reviews: 106 rushing yards, a re-energized offense, and, most importantly, a victory over the NFC-leading Saints. The win ended a four-game slide for the Eagles under former second overall pick Carson Wentz, who was finally benched after almost an entire season’s worth of uninspiring play. After getting a much-needed win to stay in the thick of the NFC East race, it came as no surprise when head coach Doug Pederson announced Hurts as the starter for week 15 against Arizona:

Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts will make his second career start in Week 15 against the Cardinals after leading the team to an upset win over the Saints in his first career NFL start on Sunday. Hurts completed only 56 percent of his passes and averaged 5.6 yards per completion through the air, but his legs were the story, running the ball 18 times for 106 yards. He became the first rookie QB to throw for a touchdown and run for over 100 yards in his first NFL start.

Streaming Kickers: Week 9

John Keenan November 6, 2020

The Process Although I’m filling in for Stefan this week, I’ll be using the same selection process that he has been using all season. In short, we’re looking for kickers who are owned in less than 50% of ESPN leagues, teams with high Vegas point totals, high passing yardage offenses, and potentially low red-zone touchdown rates. This is described more in-depth in Stefan’s Streaming Kickers…...

John Keenan September 28, 2020

In The Blitz, RotoViz writers react to the latest news and help you place it within the context of our 2020 research and recommendations. While the Titans may be 3-0 after squeaking out yet another nail-biter this Sunday against the Vikings, they got some less-than-encouraging news regarding second-year star A.J.

Navigating the Broncos Passing Game

John Keenan September 22, 2020

In a week in which it seemed almost everyone got injured, the Broncos were perhaps hit the hardest. Drew Lock will be sidelined for at least 2 weeks, but even worse, emerging star Courtland Sutton, who made his season debut this Sunday, had his season come to an end almost as soon as it started: Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (knee) tore his ACL…...
