Week 12 Loves & Hates Loves QBs Justin Herbert (Chargers)- Herbert has looked like a steal for the Chargers this year and for fantasy teams, he has not disappointed. Believe it or not Herbert is ranked as the 7th best QB this season, and this week he gets a Bills team that has become vulnerable. Over the span of the season the Bills rank as the 28th team against QBs, and are one of the worst against mobile QBs. Although Herbert does not run often the ability is there and he has shown he will when needed. Even though the Bills have been good against opposing WRs (11th), they have been pretty bad against TEs (30th) although over the last four weeks they have improved (14th).   Jared Goff (Rams)- The 49ers came into this year as one of the most feared defenses in the league and for the most part they have been as their season rankings against QBs (16th), WRs (10), and TEs (2nd) clearly display. However, there has been a collapse of this defense as of late and what seemed to b...

Happy Thanksgiving This week’s Wednesday post is going to look a little different. With now two games on Thanksgiving I wanted to provide a Loves & Hates list as most people will have some choices to make for Thursday. So I hope you all will appreciate this change in format and there will be another list on Friday for the weekend games. Next week I will get back to my normal format. Since I am not doing a waiver wire this week I will provide one strong choice and that is Nelson Agholor . As always if you enjoy the content please follow the blog by clicking the lines in the top right of the page. Enjoy your Thanksgiving. Loves QBs Alex Smith (Washington Football Team)- Since assuming the role as starter, Smith has begun to settle in. Although this past Sunday was a down week compared to his performance against the Lions, I still believe this should be a good matchup for Smith . This season the Cowboys have been pretty soft against opposing QBs, and have allowed an average completi...

Week 11 Loves & Hates Loves QBs Justin Herbert (Chargers)- The potential Offensive Rookie of the Year gets to continue making his case this week as the Jets come to town. I fully expect Herbert to throw all over this Jets defense as they currently rank 29th against opposing QBs. The Jets have allowed a 72% completion rate this season while allowing a staggering 2584 yards and 16 touchdowns. To be fair these are not the highest numbers in the league, but boy are they close. I could see the Chargers getting up early with the passing game, as the Jets are 24th against WRs and 22nd against TEs. With the help of Keenan Allen , Mike Williams , and Hunter Henry this should be a very productive day for Herbert . Jamies Winston (Saints)- With Drew Brees out this week, and maybe more, it’s time for Winston to keep serving up some Ws or maybe eating them, I don’t know the jury is still out on that saying. However, Winston could not ask for a better matchup in his first start with the S...

Week Top Loves & Hates Loves QBs Aaron Rodgers (Packers)- Another great matchup for Rodgers and he’s not the top projected QB? The Jaguars are the 30th ranked team against opposing QBs, and have given up 2,276 yards, 22 TDs with only 7 Ints. To paint an even better picture they have allowed a completion percentage of 68%, if the Jags continue this trend Rodgers will be able to dissect this defense. Add on top of that a favorable matchup for the Packer WRs (Jaguars rank 20th) and TEs (28th) #12 could be the Top performer.   Derek Carr (Raiders)- Carr has had his ups and downs this season, but with a Broncos defense this week it should be an up. The Broncos rank towards the bottom of the league against QBs 24th and WRs 25th. With Hunter Renfrow , Nelson Agholor playing well, not to mention the matchup nightmare Darren Waller it feels like Carr could have a strong showing this week.   RBs Antonio Gibson/J.D. McKissic (Washington Football Team)- This is a combo writeu...
