Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Top-Scoring Tall Guys
Height is a help in football … until it isn’t. There have only been three running backs listed at 6-foot-4 or taller to reach 1,000 career PPR points, none at 6-5 or more. There have been plenty of wide receivers at 6-5, but once you get to 6-6, the list falls off a cliff. Basically, […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Unluckiest Active Receivers
Exactly what it means to be “unlucky” as a receiver in the NFL is fair to debate, but here’s a fun measure: Over 100 yards, no touchdowns. It’s hard to put up those two things at the same time, and it’s especially difficult to do it more than a time or two. But some of […]

It will be difficult to earn his fantasy services for double-digits just about anywhere but it’s likely some of those will squeak through in 12-team formats. The […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Most First-Team All-Pros, Active Players

Among active players, seven first-team All Pros is the current leader. There are 28 active players (meaning they played […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Best Postseason Passer Rating, Active QBs
Passer rating is of course an imperfect measure, but it’s a decent shorthand. If you put up a high number, odds are you performed well; if you put up a low number, odds are you didn’t. When the stakes are highest, that’s just as true. So for today’s Quiz of the Day, let’s look […]

QB Two-Step: The Best Fantasy Quarterback Pairings of 2022

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Longest Active Streaks of at least 1 Passing TD
In theory, a quarterback passing for at least a single passing touchdown in a game isn’t that remarkable. Guys do it all the time. In practice … they fail to do so more often than you’d expect. In practice, only 30 quarterbacks entered the offseason on streaks of even two games with at least one […]

Plugging the Hole: How to Fix the Tight End Position in Dynasty
Tight end is quite possibly the most frustrating position in fantasy football. You can use one hand to count the number of reliable players at the position, and if you don’t have one of these guys you’re desperately trying to find one. That goes doubly true in dynasty, where managers are reluctant to ever part […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: The Best Fantasy Season in Each Team’s History
Obviously, the “best” season in a team’s history is subject to interpretation – context, position, team success, etc. But one way (decidedly not the only way, perhaps not the best way, but a way) to measure such a thing is simple fantasy points. Who had the most PPR points in a season in each team’s […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Longest Active Streaks of 1 Rush, 1 Reception
Getting a single carry and a single reception in a game isn’t a sign of a dominant fantasy player, obviously, but it is a sign of a player who at least has a role in the offense. Doing it over and over and over just solidifies that. There were 12 players who entered the offseason […]

Beware the Cliff: 2022 Fantasy Football

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Longest Average Touchdown Length of 2021
Anyone can score a long touchdown (well, not anyone-anyone, but you know what I mean). One break in coverage and suddenly a 5-yard play become an 80-yard catch-and-score and makes that week’s highlight reel. But the players who can go for big yardage over and over are the ones who break the game. Last year, […]

Fantasy Crossroads: The Biggest Draft-Day Conundrums of 2022
The majority of fantasy football advice looks at the macro: Is a player a good investment, a mediocre investment, a bad investment? Does a running back belong in the early rounds, the late rounds, or not at all? It’s obviously the most important part of this whole thing, figuring out who fits in what general […]

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Most Running Back Targets in a Season Since 2000
Thursday’s Quiz of the Day looked at the single-season target leaders around the league since 2000. Unsurprisingly, it was a WR-only list, as they are obviously the ones who dominate targets.

Fantasy Quiz of the Day: Most Targets in a Season Since 2000
You can’t produce fantasy points if you don’t have opportunities. For running backs, that’s carries and targets, but at receiver, it’s basically targets only, unless your name is Deebo Samuel. Since the turn of the century, there have been 19 seasons where a player has gotten at least 180 targets in a season, peaking with […]
