Yahoo! fantasy analyst sees huge ceiling for D’Andre Swift in 2022

His 2021 season was impacted by an injury, but one fantasy football analyst sees a massive ceiling for D’Andre Swift in 2022. Spurred by heavy passing game usage early and back-to-back career-best rushing games, Detroit Lions running back D’Andre Swift was RB5 in full PPR fantasy scoring from Week 1-11 this season. It was notable that those back-to-back 130-plus yard rushing contests came in head coach Dan Campbell’s first two games as the new offensive play caller. Then, Swift suffered… Source link

LA freight train looting 'out of control' as thieves worsen supply chain bottlenecks – Yahoo Finance

Matthew Stafford finally has his first playoff victory. Now comes the tough part – Yahoo Sports

For a dozen years, Matthew Stafford watched the NFL’s playoff carnival go off either without him, or with his role limited to bit player. He threw for 49,995 regular-season yards and 282 touchdowns for the Detroit Lions but had virtually nothing tangible (other than a lot of money, of course) to show for it. Three meager wild-card appearances. Three losses by an average of 13.7 points. There was lots of couch time watching not just great quarterbacks play in, and win, big games, but even… Source link

Yahoo DFS Basketball: Sunday Picks

We had a massive Saturday card, and it’s left us with crumbs for today. We actually have just four games, with three making up the main card. That means the pickings will be slim, but one matchup stands out above the rest. That happens to be the Houston-Sacramento rematch, in which the clubs combined for 240 points on Friday. The other contests should also offer plenty of fantasy value, so let’s go ahead and get into it. Guards De’Aaron Fox, SAC vs. HOU ($30) Fox was really struggling two weeks… Source link
