The bearded quarterbacking wonder that is Ryan Fitzpatrick absolutely dominated in the 2019 fantasy football playoffs. He crushed it for the Miami Dolphins.

Unsung heroes sometimes help deliver league titles for fantasy football owners, and Dolphins running back Patrick Laird is lined up to be one such guy this year.

But what if the
With fantasy football season hitting the home stretch, if you have to pick up a wide receiver off waivers, it has to be DeVante Parker of the Miami Dolphins. Week 12 of the 2019 NFL season is upon us. That means there are only a few weeks left of fantasy football season. The playoffs are
As slow as it’s moving, now is the time to get on the Kalen Ballage fantasy football bandwagon. With first-team reps early in training camp, Kalen Ballage was easy to point to as a deep fantasy sleeper this year. The depth chart has cleared out for him slowly but surely, with Kenyan Drake traded to
The Miami Dolphins are (gasp) on an actual winning streak after beating the Indianapolis Colts 16-12 on Sunday For the first seven weeks of the NFL season, the Miami Dolphins were called tankers, the worst team in the league and maybe ever, even a flat-out embarrassment. Look at them now, because head coach Brian Flores

After failing on a 2-point conversion to lose to the Washington Redskins, it’s looking increasingly likely that the 2019 Miami Dolphins might go 0-16. “Even the Losers get lucky sometimes”, sang the late Tom Petty on many occasions in his illustrious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame career.
