With 3 games in the rear view, now is the time where we can get a better, stronger look at our fantasy rosters. Who we can sell high on, who we can buy low on, and even better, which teams we can get a better idea of how we can best attack their defenses. Let’s talk about some players you can start this week, and those that you can sit.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Let’s all collectively go outside and scream at the top of our lungs. There was so much bad play-calling, stupid penalties, bad play-calling, bad fantasy beats, bad play-calling, and brutal injuries that happened last night. I was given hope when Aaron Rodgers drove the Packers down the field in the two-minute drill and hit a wide open Geronimo Allison in the end zone. Then the Packers get the ball first after half time and run the ball on the first two plays with all of the momentum on their side and end up punting. The Eagles score again and when the Packers get the ball back, THEY RUN ON FIRST DOWN AGAIN.
Our writer Pat called it perfectly when he mentioned to some of the other writers that he thought that the Packers were a better team, but he was nervous about a brand new coach coming up with a solid game plan on a 4-day turnaround. In the 4th quarter, the Packers had the ball on first and goal at the 1 yard line and Rodgers threw 4 straight incompletions. That would have actually been a good time to run the ball considering how well Aaron Jones has ran the ball in goal line situations so far this season. For what it’s worth, this was easily the best Thursday night game we’ve had so far this year. Everything from play on the field to atmosphere was what we’ve come to expect when we sit down to watch an NFL football game. Now let’s go over some fantasy impact from week 4 TNF.

Shootout Vs. Blowout: Week 4
September 27, 2019 | Fantasy Football Strategy | 14 Commentsby: Nic Romero
To avoid writing in-depth about the Kansas City Chiefs for a 4th week in a row, this week will focus on the 2nd highest projected point total, TB @ LAR.
Kansas City Chiefs @ Detroit Lions carries the highest point total for week 4 at 54.5. Another episode of Oprah Winfrey giving away TDs to everyone in the audience. Kerryon Johnson is a clear start after KC was torched by Mark Ingram, and the release of CJ Anderson. Travis Kelce, Sammy Watkins, Kenny Golladay, and Marvin Jones Jr. are all starts this week. TJ Hockensen is a viable TE play, and Mecole Hardman/Demarcus Robinson remain flex plays. If Damien Williams is sidelined again, then Darrel Williams is a RB3/Flex with RB2 upside. Follow KC’s injury/practice reports regarding LeSean McCoy’s health status and Damien’s knee. Darwin Thompson remains only a deeper league bench stash, not worth rostering in most formats until his pathway to usage and opportunity increase.

Data Domination Week 4 – I’ve Gone Hollywood
September 27, 2019 | Fantasy Football Strategy | 9 Commentsby: Pat
I thought in this week’s lede I would further detail my general process for breaking down NFL games. There are a million different approaches, but to be successful everyone needs to find a method and refine it constantly. My process for breaking down games starts with taking the entire slate and checking the injury report prior to moving to line of scrimmage. This is where significant edges are found even in today’s game. I check pressure rates, adjusted line yard data, and articles pertaining to the big guys to find if there is a significant advantage terms of pass rush, or the ability to run the football. If there is an advantage at the line of scrimmage positively, we must ensure we are working in a game environment in which the coach that has the advantage will take the edge. Alternatively, if the edge is a negative, is the quarterback/coach intelligent and talented enough to beat it? The final step is to compare the current secondary using success rates, target rates, yards allowed per target, etc. versus the talent and scheme in the passing game. That information is again tied back to if the coach and quarterback are talented enough to take advantage. Essentially, what I provide to you are the most important notes found in breaking down the individual games and looking at players statistics for the entire seasons. Here are those edges for week 4.

There have been a lot of surprising developments this season. Some good, and of course, some bad. We have seen John Ross, yes that John Ross, look like maybe he isn’t a complete bust. We have even seen the re-emergence of Rex Burkhead in New England. With these incredible feats in mind, let’s take a look at another list of moves to try to make in Week 4. And hopefully, we can help get you to a fantasy championship.

Fantasy Football Rankings: MB’s Week 4 Rankings
September 25, 2019 | Fantasy Football Rankings | 89 Commentsby: MB
This season is flying by isn’t it? It seems like every season flies by for me lately. June-August creep by while we pound out preseason articles trying to find new angles to cover new players. Then the regular season hits and the regular routine seems to speed things up. Waivers, offer trades, turn down trades, lineups, lines ups again, tinker, tinker, watch football, and then we do it all again the next week. Whether you are 0-3 or 3-0, don’t forget to actually enjoy this little 16 week window that we get every year to play fantasy football. While fantasy baseball is a grind, fantasy football is here and gone in a flash. After cracking the top 25 last week in the FantasyPros accuracy contest, I landed at the 53rd spot this week. This puts me at 45th out of 138 rankers through 3 weeks. Here are my week 4 rankings!
