Conor O’Driscoll uses the RotoViz suite of tools to identify opportunities to buy low on players likely to post strong fantasy performances, and to help you see red flags before your opponents notice. The Strength of Schedule (SOS) Streaming App is particularly useful for this as it allows us to see which players have the easiest or most difficult upcoming schedules, a potentially league-winning edge.
Last week was a bit of a mixed bag. I correctly pointed out that the Steelers defense is much worse than the stats indicate, but I featured the wrong player. Joe Mixon has been on a tear recently, racking up yards and touchdowns. The Bengals seem determined to feature Mixon in the offense as much as they possibly can, and to his credit, he has rewarded them with strong production.
Russell Wilson looked terrible on Monday night. Throws that looked routine for him earlier in the season got airmailed into another zip code. He claims that his finger is 100%, but that simply cannot be the case.
On the other hand, Antonio Gibson got his strongest workload of the season, touching the ball 36 times and scoring 23.6 points. He was a bit unfortunate not to score as J.D. McKissic got in the end zone twice.
