Yahoo Fantasy Forecast

The semifinals of the fantasy playoffs are nearly complete. Have you secured your spot in the fantasy Super Bowl? Or, did you suffer a terrible defeat at the hands of an oddly low-scoring Sunday?In fact, only two games featured a ton of points, and they were both blowouts (ARI@ATL, MIA@MIN). The majority of quarterbacks delivered quiet performances. The expected high-scoring affair between the Steelers and Patriots? Both relative fantasy disappointments for Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger.Minnesota, however, didn't suffer offensively at all. They finally delivered on the run game sans ex-OC, John DeFilippo. Dalvin Cook had inarguably his best game of the season, rewarding his fantasy owners' patience (if they had any left).Oh, and Derrick Henry went off again. Now the question is, what round will he be drafted in 2019?Dalton Del Don and Matt Harmon discuss those performances and more in this week's fantasy wrap podcast. They also asked you about which players — in such an important week — let you down the most. As many can imagine, the disappointment surrounding Andrew Luck and Saquon Barkley is IMMENSE. (18:20)Dalton and Matt then offer up a couple of pickup options for Week 16 — the championship round for most fantasy leagues! (24:30)In the world of college football, our experts Dan Wetzel, Pat Forde and Pete Thamel will be doing a live edition of the Yahoo Sports College Podcast the Friday before the National Championship game at the Uproar Brewing Company in San Jose, California. The show is free to attend, there will be tons of prizes and giveaways, beer specials and custom brews for both playoff teams.Go to yahoosports.com/collegepodcast to RSVP and get more info!Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Dalton @DaltonDelDonFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

For most fantasy football leagues, Week 15 marks the playoff semifinals. Yep, we're just one week away from the Super Bowl of fantasy. Did you make it this far?If you did, chances are you have a solid squad. If you didn't, pride is still worth fighting for!Yet, question marks remain on many a fantasy team, and they just keep emerging. James Conner did not practice on Wednesday and is questionable for Week 15. Conner owners looking for a backup will have to do some savvy picking-and-choosing, especially since there will be Saturday football this week.Carson Wentz might be shut down for the remainder of the season. Can owners looking for a backup trust Nick Foles? What does Wentz's back injury mean for Zach Ertz, Alshon Jeffrey, and the rest of the Eagles' fantasy assets?Matt and Dalton break down those and the other big Week 15 questions in this latest podcast episode.They also asked you which advantageous matchups you were looking forward to the most. Dak Prescott against the Colts' questionable secondary was mentioned, but so was the fact that some advantageous matchups end up flopping terribly!Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 15 rankings, and there are some differing opinions about Josh Allen.Matt and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.

Week 14 is all but done, and many fantasy players saw their hopes for a run in the playoffs come to an end. Odds are they faced Derrick Henry, but the Titans runner wasn't the only player to shock the masses.In a rather surprising turn of events, the Saints' offense has utterly sputtered two weeks in a row. In fact, Drew Brees has only thrown two touchdowns in his last two games compared to eight in Weeks 11 and 12 combined.Week 14 offered up as juicy a matchup as it gets (@ Tampa Bay), but Brees finished with 14.94 fantasy points; less than owners expected. Brees and the Saints get Carolina and Pittsburgh in the final two weeks of the fantasy playoffs.On the flipside, Amari Cooper had been, as a whole, underwhelming for much of the season. Then he joined the Cowboys, and then he erupted for 10 catches, 217 yards and three touchdowns in Week 14.Liz Loza, Scott Pianowski, and Matt Harmon discuss these unexpected performances and more on today’s fantasy wrap podcast.Our experts also asked you about the most tilting fantasy performances you experienced in Week 14. You can imagine how many people were affected by another eruption, courtesy of George Kittle (seven catches, 210 yards, one TD).Liz, Scott, and Matt then wrap up with a most stunning statistic that is par for the Week 14 course. A whopping 14 players scored touchdowns — those players were also owned in less than 1 percent of Yahoo leagues. Among them is James Develin, because of course.Our experts run down that list and see if there's anyone with any fantasy intrigue going forward.Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz @LizLoza_FFFollow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Well, this is it. The regular fantasy football season is in the books. Now, we look ahead at the tournament — the battle for all the marbles.If you made it this far, congratulations! Yet, it isn't all good news. Many fantasy teams in the playoffs were, in some form or fashion, affected by the wave of devastating injuries that have been occurring.It started with an injury to Melvin Gordon and continued on Sunday Night Football in Week 13, when James Conner went down. With Conner ruled out of Week 14, Jaylen Samuels entered the spotlight. Can he be trusted?Emmanuel Sanders owners lost him for the season earlier this week, thanks to a torn Achilles. The fantasy outlooks of Courtland Sutton, DaeSean Hamilton, and Tim Patrick were drastically changed as a result.Liz and Dalton break down those and the other terrible losses in this latest podcast episode.They also asked you what high-floor, high-risk players you're being forced to start in the first round of the playoffs. Demaryius Thomas and Jarvis Landry are some of the fringe starters mentioned.Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 14 rankings, and there are some differing opinions about Joe Mixon.Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Just like that, the last regular Sunday action of the fantasy season is in the books. There were some unexpected results, but for the most part, fantasy players know where they stand.They're either in, or they're out (or they're clinging on by a thread, waiting for Monday Night Football!).The performances we saw on Sunday definitely played a part. Todd Gurley did Todd Gurley things, but Jared Goff disappointed. Russell Wilson continued scoring, while Josh Allen decided to out-rush a whole bunch of RB1s.The Packers also fired Mike McCarthy — a move many expected. A.J. Green and Greg Olsen suffered injuries again, with Olsen's being season-ending. The Chiefs also didn't miss a beat, sans Kareem Hunt.Liz Loza, Scott Pianowski, and Matt Harmon discuss all those subjects and more on today’s fantasy wrap podcast.Our experts then asked you which players who went late in fantasy drafts have become no-doubt starters in the playoffs. You know Nick Chubb is included, who's impressed ever since he became a starter.Liz, Scott, and Matt then wrap up with a few pickup options for Week 14.Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz @LizLoza_FFFollow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 13. It's the last regular season slate for many Fantasy players. Some are lucky enough to already have secured a playoff spot. Many others are hanging on by a thread. A win, a loss, a met-point-threshold — all are important this week. Luckily, Liz Loza and Dalton Del Don are letting us in on some playoff strategies to implement.Of course you're starting Patrick Mahomes and Todd Gurley, but what about that FLEX position?But that’s not all Liz and Dalton discuss in this week's podcast episode. They also discuss the late-season injury fallout from across the league. How have the outlooks for Austin Ekeler, Mike Williams, and the rest of the Chargers' skill-position players after Melvin Gordon's injury?What alternatives do players look for now that Andy Dalton and Mitchell Trubisky are missing time? What does apparent A.J. Green's return mean for Joe Mixon and Tyler Boyd?They’ve also asked you about the on-the-bubble starters you need to have a huge game in Week 13 — yes, we're talking James White and Corey Davis.Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 13 rankings, and there are some differing opinions about Dalvin Cook.Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Sunday action for Week 12 is in the can! This is it. Just one regular season week left for most fantasy leagues before the playoffs — are you ready?While some teams are in excellent position to dominate, others aren't. And those who have been led by Melvin Gordon now find themselves in a nightmarish situation.The Chargers were in the midst of a soon-to-be blowout victory over the Cardinals when Gordon — who almost didn't even start due to lingering ailments — went down. Initial reports suggested an MCL injury suffered by the star runner, but fantasy owners will have to wait until full confirmation to be sure.Our Yahoo fantasy experts discuss that and more on today’s fantasy wrap podcast. One of those subjects include the return of the Patriots offense, as Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski (at last!), Sony Michel, and Julian Edelman all had great fantasy days. Perhaps the bye week helped fix issues in the Evil Empire?Our experts then asked you which quarterback — with both Jared Goff and Patrick Mahomes on bye and Drew Brees enjoying a long layoff — had the most surprising fantasy performance on Sunday (all hail Baker Mayfield!)Liz, Scott, and Matt then wrap up with a few pickup options for Week 13.Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz @LizLoza_FFFollow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Matt @MattHarmon_BYB See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 12's first slate of games begins on Thanksgiving. As such, it's only right that Liz Loza and Dalton Del Don take this podcast episode to discuss the fantasy players they're thankful for this year (not enough thanks to go around for Andrew Luck, TBH).But that's not all Liz and Dalton discuss in this early week episode. Of course, they have to dissect that game-changing Monday night matchup between the Chiefs and Rams — and what happened to Todd Gurley?!Our experts also dive into the three games on Turkey Day. Will Ezekiel Elliott continue his torrid stretch? How will injuries to Mitchell Trubisky and Kerryon Johnson affect Bears-Lions? Can Falcons-Saints match Rams-Chiefs? What will *gulp* Colt McCoy do against the Dallas D?They’ve also asked you about the players you're most worried about letting you down in Week 12 (is Carson Wentz going downhill?).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 12 rankings, and there are some differing opinions about Deshaun Watson.Liz and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Liz: @LizLoza_FFFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The fantasy playoffs are getting closer and closer. The more the season nears its finish, the more things become clear — while other things just continue to get muddled. Like the Titans — what is happening? The Marcus Mariota-led offense showed us so much the past couple of weeks only to completely fall apart against the powerhouse Colts.Speaking of powerhouses, Drew Brees and the Saints have pushed their way into the conversation for not only best team in the NFC, but best team in the league after they utterly dominated the Eagles.Speaking of muddled, who, pray tell, is Gus Edwards, and why did he break every Alex Collins-owners' hearts today?Our Yahoo fantasy experts discuss that and more on today's fantasy wrap podcast. One of the subjects they broke down were the blow-up performances by two rookie wideouts, D.J. Moore and Tre'Quan Smith. Moore and Smith also lead our experts' pickup options for Week 12, when two powerhouses, Kansas City and the Rams, will be on bye.Our experts then asked you which players brought you closer to — or farther from — the fantasy playoffs (thank you, T.Y. Hilton).Please remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Scott @scott_pianowskiFollow Dalton @daltondeldon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It's a matchup that fantasy gamers can only dream of. You've been waiting for it. I've been waiting for it. We all have. Finally, on Monday night in Week 11, we will get it. Rams versus Chiefs. Two of the three teams (Saints) that have pretty much broken fantasy football this season will face off. Most, if not all fantasy teams with playoff aspirations have multiple active assets in this game. Patrick Mahomes and Todd Gurley; of course. Tyreek Hill and Robert Woods; probably.Matt Harmon and Dalton Del Don want to make sure we're all ready for that game, and all the other major fantasy happenings that have led up to kickoff on this week's preview podcast.Our experts delve into the devastating Cooper Kupp-injury, the Le'Veon Bell fallout, and the Ravens quarterback situation.They've also asked you about the bench players you're forced to play in this six-team bye week — the ones you're hoping will go off (please, Doug Martin, please!).Of course, we can’t forget about Andy and Brad going at it over their Week 11 rankings, and there's a grudge match going on between Corey Davis and Larry Fitzgerald.Matt and Dalton then wrap up with a couple bargains and fades for Yahoo Daily Fantasy.Remember to rate, review and subscribe on your podcast provider of choice and send us your questions for future episodes on Twitter @YahooFantasy.Follow Matt: @MattHarmon_BYBFollow Dalton: @DaltondeldonFollow Brad: @YahooNoiseFollow Andy: @Andybehrens See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
