  Chargers | Harbaugh 'going to look at everything' as McDaniel's OC job in question at 0-6    Sun Oct 18, 08:48 PM

There is "growing buzz" that the Chargers will part ways with offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel after Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Chiefs dropped them to 0-6.

Footballguys view: The Chargers failed to score a touchdown Sunday, have scored 84 points in six games, and QB Justin Herbert threw his eighth interception of the season. Asked whether McDaniel will call plays when the team returns from its bye to play the Rams in Week 8, head coach Jim Harbaugh said, "We're going to look at everything . . . (the offense) needs to be addressed." If the Chargers make a move, pass game specialist and former Jets head coach Adam Gase is expected to take over the offense. We'll be watching for more.

  Rams | Blake Grupe leaves stadium on crutches    Sun Oct 18, 08:48 PM

The Rams signed Grupe to replace Harrison Mevis following his four misses to begin the season. Grupe also replaced punter Ethan Evans on kickoffs and on his first one, coverage broke down, Grupe went to make a tackle, collided with Arizona's Devin Duvernay, and was removed from the game with a knee injury.

Footballguys view: After the contest, The Sporting Tribune's Arash Markazi reports that Grupe was using crutches and that his leg is in a brace. In his post-game presser, head coach Sean McVay did not have an update on the injury. "I don't have an update on him," said McVay. "I just know he got his knee." McVay should have more on Monday, but if Grupe is unable to play next week, the team will be on its third kicker in three games.

  Rams | Davante Adams leaves loss with apparent left knee injury, does not return    Sun Oct 18, 08:02 PM

Rams WR Davante Adams pulled up in the back of the end zone on the Rams' final drive of Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Cardinals, reached for his left knee and limped off the field.

Footballguys view: He did not return, and further specifics of the injury are not yet known. Adams finished with three catches for 39 yards on four targets and has 27 catches for 441 yards and four touchdowns this season. We'll be watching for more on Adams' status as the team begins preparing for a Week 7 game with the Raiders.

  Rams | Kyren Williams on Rams' sputtering offense: 'Probably because I'm not out there'    Sun Oct 18, 07:42 PM

Rams RB Kyren Williams, asked after Sunday's 18-16 home loss to the Cardinals why the team couldn't sustain its energy from drive to drive, said: "Can't tell you, bro. Probably because I'm not out there." Williams and RB Blake Corum traded off on a scoring drive against the Bills last week.

Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Sarah Barshop pointed out, Williams played 40 offensive snaps to Corum's 16. Williams had 50 rushing yards on 10 carries and 3 catches for 17 yards. Corum had 42 yards on 9 carries and 2 catches for 18 yards and a touchdown. The Rams play the Raiders in Week 8.

  Bills | Dalton Kincaid leaves with rib injury, returns in fourth quarter    Sun Oct 18, 07:37 PM

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid left Sunday's 33-30 win over the Raiders with a rib injury but returned in the fourth quarter. Kincaid earlier appeared to catch a touchdown from QB Josh Allen, but it was called back on a holding penalty.

Footballguys view: Kincaid caught seven passes for 38 yards in Vegas. His team-high eight targets were a welcome development after a three-week stretch where the tight end saw just seven combined targets. The Bills are off Week 7 and return to play the Ravens in Week 8.

  Raiders | Mayer catches 7 passes for 95 yards in loss to Bills    Sun Oct 18, 07:35 PM

Las Vegas Raiders TE Michael Mayer caught 7 passes for 95 yards on 9 targets in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He was projected for 5.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 13.0.

Footballguys view: As ESPN's Tristan Cockcroft noted, the Raiders are making two tight ends fantasy relevant. Mayer -- second on their positional depth chart -- scored 16.5 fantasy points on nine targets, his third game with at least 12 points in his past four. Coach Klint Kubiak's offense has coaxed a league-leading 64.6 points from tight ends during those four weeks. Mayer was TE5 overall through the end of Sunday's late-afternoon games. His teammate, Brock Bowers, was TE11 with 11 points.

  Raiders | Cousins throws for 313 yards, two touchdowns in loss to Bills    Sun Oct 18, 07:35 PM

Las Vegas Raiders QB Kirk Cousins completed 23 of 41 passes for 313 yards with 2 touchdowns and 1 interception in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He was projected for 17.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.5.

Footballguys view: A poor third quarter, in which Cousins threw the only interception of the game, left the Raiders trailing by 10 twice in the second half. Both times, Cousins gave his team a chance. With just under two minutes remaining in the contest, it took two plays for Cousins to find the end zone, hitting Tre Tucker with a 44-yard touchdown (for his second score of the day). Cousins was mostly solid outside of the pick, but too many Raiders mistakes -- some bigger than others -- ultimately sunk them. The Raiders face the Rams in Week 7.

  Raiders | Tucker catches 5 passes for 97 yards, two touchdowns in loss to Bills    Sun Oct 18, 07:35 PM

Las Vegas Raiders WR Tre Tucker caught 5 passes for 97 yards and two touchdowns on 7 targets in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He was projected for 8.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 24.2.

Footballguys view: As USA Today suggested, somebody in the wide receiver room finally answered the bell. Tucker's 11-yard score tied the game at 23, and his diving 44-yard touchdown grab finished a 24-second drive. "I think he's faster than I realize he is, and there are times when I just need to launch, and he'll go get it," Cousins said when asked about his connection with Tucker. The Raiders play the Rams in Week 7.

  Giants | Harbaugh not ready to name Week 7 starter after McCarthy replaces Winston    Sun Oct 18, 07:33 PM

Giants head coach John Harbaugh said on Sunday he is not ready to name a starting quarterback for Week 7 at the Texans. QB J.J. McCarthy replaced QB Jameis Winston during Sunday's 34-27 home loss to the Saints, ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported. The Giants' running back situation was also left unsettled after the loss.

Footballguys view: McCarthy, who was acquired recently via trade, entered early in the fourth quarter and led an impressivbe comeback attempt. He had an instant connection with tight end Isaiah Likely and star receiver Malik Nabers. McCarthy threw for 243 yards and a touchdown in the fourth quarter alone, leading three scoring drives and getting the Giants to the red zone in the final seconds. We'll be watching this situation closely in the coming days.

  Chiefs | Walker runs for 128 yards, two TDs in win over Chargers    Sun Oct 18, 07:30 PM

Kansas City Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker ran 19 times for 128 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 2 passes for 11 yards on 3 targets in Sunday's 22-6 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. He was projected for 21.9 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 26.9.

Footballguys view: As NFL.com suggested, it wasn't the explosion Walker produced in the season opener, but for yet another week, the former Seahawk proved his star isn't burning out anytime soon. His patience, change of direction, burst, and refusal to go down on first contact made him a nightmare for Chargers defenders to attempt to stop. Walker gets a revenge game in Week 8, with Kansas City playing in Seattle.

  Eagles | WR Makai Lemon leaves briefly with undisclosed injury    Sun Oct 18, 07:30 PM

Eagles WR Makai Lemon was sent to the medical tent during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Panthers due to an unspecified injury.

Footballguys view: The rookie wide receiver, who had two catches for six yards on five targets prior to checking into the tent, returned to action quickly. He added another catch to finish the day with three catches for 19 yards. He was third on the team in targets and finished fourth in receptions. According to CBSSports.com, with Dontayvion Wicks (undisclosed) leaving the game in the final period, Lemon and DeVonta Smith figure to serve as the top WRs available to fill-in QB Tanner McKee the rest of the way.

  Colts | Colts sticking with Daniel Jones as starter after two-INT loss: 'He's got to play better'    Sun Oct 18, 07:05 PM

Colts head coach Shane Steichen confirmed after Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Titans that QB Daniel Jones will remain the starting quarterback. "I think he knows he's got to play better," Steichen said. Jones went 22-of-42 for 269 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions, including one in the red zone, and now has six interceptions to three touchdowns this season as the Colts fell to 2-4.

Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Stephen Holder notes, Jones hasn't come close to matching the run he had at the start of last season, which was the basis for the Colts giving him a new deal following his ruptured Achilles in December. Jones had two more interceptions Sunday, tying for the NFL lead with nine turnovers (he has three lost fumbles to go with the INTs). The turnovers are undermining offensive consistency, which has been a challenge in itself. With Anthony Richardson Sr. the next man up, it appears the Colts are willing to weather more inconsistency from Jones.

  Giants | Harbaugh says Skattebo 'wasn't benched', still trying to figure out who 'the guy' is    Sun Oct 18, 05:19 PM

Giants RB Cam Skattebo finished with zero carries in Sunday's loss to the Saints, but head coach John Harbaugh said Skattebo wasn't benched and that the lack of carries wasn't by design. Harbaugh said no one has stepped up in the running back room and that he is trying to figure out who "the guy" is. When pressed on the topic, Harbaugh said, "I don't know what else to say. That's the best answer you can ever get on that in 1,000 years... If you're not thrilled with that answer, I got nothing else for you, honestly."

Footballguys view: Harbaugh is trying to be tactful in the media, but there's zero chance that Skattebo not appearing in the box score was accidental. Najee Harris was unimpressive as the starter and Tyrone Tracy can't do everything, but Skattebo is unlikely to get back to the clear lead back role he had to open the season. He's not an essential hold in short bench leagues heading into a matchup with the Texans.

  Chargers | Ladd McConkey ruled out with concussion vs. Chiefs    Sun Oct 18, 05:07 PM

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chiefs with a concussion. He caught 1 pass for 17 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 22-6 loss.

Footballguys view: It seems like it is always going to be something with McConkey and durability, which was the one real concern about his translation to the NFL when he was in the 2024 NFL draft class and was selected early in the second round by the Chargers. The Chargers have a bye next week, so hopefully he'll be back for Week 8 with a chance to find his form once the Chargers are through the rough Week 4-10 stretch the schedule makers put together for this beleaguered team.

  Falcons | Michael Penix Jr. visits injury tent early vs. Bears, says 'I am good'    Sun Oct 18, 04:59 PM

Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. made an early trip to the injury tent during Sunday's loss to the Bears. A smiling Penix declined to explain the visit afterward: "I did go into the injury tent. I'm not going to say what that was about. Just say I am good."

Footballguys view: Penix was injured a week ago when he left Sunday night with a rib injury. The first notice that he had an issue on Sunday was when the Fox broadcast showed him going to the tent. He hadn't missed a play when the Falcons had the ball up to that point. It wasn't obvious whether Penix had re-injured his ribs or if something else had happened. Penix completed 19 of 33 passes for 225 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions against the Bears, and he ran just once for one yard.

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Germie Bernard caught 11 passes for 87 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was projected for 10.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 20.2.

Footballguys view: Bernard had a massive PPR day and scored the team's only touchdown in his first game as a starting wide receiver with three of his teammates at the position out for this game. Bernard was a priority waiver wire pickup last week and will be a strong WR3/Flex option against the Saints in Paris next week.

  Panthers | Hubbard runs for 120 yards, one TD in win over Eagles    Sun Oct 18, 04:31 PM

Footballguys view: The Panthers offense passed their stiffest test of the season, with Hubbard's tough running helping them close out a resounding road win against a good defense. Hubbard is a solid RB1 in a balanced offense with a line that is going to get some key starters back. He has a tough matchup against the Bucs stout run defense next week.

New Orleans Saints TE Juwan Johnson caught 0 passes for 0 yards on 2 targets in Sunday's 34-27 win over the New York Giants. He was projected for 9.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 0.0.

Footballguys view: The Saints pass offense didn't do a lot of the heavy lifting for the team in Week 6, and Johnson's fantasy output was one of the casualties. He'll head to Paris and face the Steelers next week with a bye up in Week 8. He's not an essential hold in short bench leagues if he's not your most productive tight end.

  Giants | Tracy runs for 18 yards, one TD, one receiving TD in loss to Saints    Sun Oct 18, 04:31 PM

New York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. ran 6 times for 18 yards and a touchdown and also caught 2 passes for 27 yards and a touchdown on 3 targets in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the New Orleans Saints. He was projected for 4.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 17.5.

Footballguys view: Najee Harris got the start, but he was ineffective. Tracy was the red zone back with Cam Skattebo benched following another costly fumble in overtime last week, and he got free for a receiving touchdown to open the scoring for the Giants. He was on the field during the comeback bid with JJ McCarthy and added a rushing touchdown. He clearly has the most athleticism of any of the Giants backs and should be added while the Giants try to figure out who their best quarterback and running back is going into Week 7 with a trip to Houston up next.

Footballguys view: The good news is that Nabers put up a good chunk of this with JJ McCarthy after Jameis Winston was benched. McCarthy wasn't able to get on the same page with Justin Jefferson last year, but that doesn't seem to be an issue with his Southeast Louisiana pedigree #1 receiver with the Giants.

  Saints | Shough throws for 144 yards, three touchdowns in win over Giants    Sun Oct 18, 04:31 PM

New Orleans Saints QB Tyler Shough completed 16 of 30 passes for 144 yards with 3 touchdowns and ran 5 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the New York Giants. He was projected for 17.4 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 27.0.

Footballguys view: Shough wasn't a dangerous downfield passer, but he was a courageous runner and made the plays in the red zone (along with an inspired 31-yard catch and run touchdown by Alvin Kamara on a day that he became the sixth player in NFL history to get to 5000 yards receiving and rushing) including a quarterback sneak touchdown. He is playing with two breaks in his left hand and faces a tough Steelers defense next week, so maybe Shough is not an automatic play despite the big fantasy result today. He'll have a bye in Week 8 to heal with a favorable schedule for fantasy production in the second half of the season.
