Week 6 Fantasy Football Winners and Losers: 2026 Edition

Quarterback

Biggest Winner: Trevor Lawrence (Jaguars)

It was quite the QB duel in London between C.J Stroud and Lawrence on Sunday and while the Texans ultimately won the game on a Ka'imi Fairbairn field goal at the end of regulation, Lawrence (306 YDS, 4 TD's, INT, 11 Rushing YDS) proved to be the top dog in fantasy. The Jaguars franchise quarterback has been an up-and-down QB1 play through 6 weeks, and his owners will be hoping for a little more consistency after his Week 7 bye. 

Honorable Mentions: Tyler Shough (Saints), Drake Maye (Patriots), C.J. Stroud (Texans)

Biggest Loser: Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs)

Mahomes had a largely uneventful showing against the completely aloof and defeated Chargers, throwing for 272 scoreless YDS, an INT and picking up 16 YDS on the ground as the Chiefs cruised to victory. He'll be a questionable starting option for this week's tough road game in Seattle. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Dak Prescott (Cowboys), Matthew Stafford (Rams), Brock Purdy (49ers)

Running Back

Biggest Winner: Kenneth Walker III (Chiefs)

In a shocking development coming off the bye, The Chiefs offense once again ran through Walker. Their big free agent pickup needed just 21 touches (19 carries, 2 receptions) to hang 139 scrimmage YDS and 2 rushing TD's on the Chargers abysmal defense. Walker has been unstoppable to start 2026 and his old friends on the Seahawks are going to have put together one hell of showing in order to become the first defense this season to slow him down. 

Honorable Mentions: James Cook (Bills), Bhayshul Tuten (Jaguars), D'Andre Swift (Bears)

Biggest Loser: Derrick Henry (Ravens)

The Browns defense took advantage of the Ravens banged-up offensive line and Tyler Huntley's presence under center and completely stifled Henry-holding him to 58 YDS on 17 carries and forcing him to lose a huge fumble in the 4th quarter that led to the only TD they scored in their 13-10 upset victory. Henry's weekly YPC hasn't exceeded 4.3 YDS since his Week 1 eruption over the Colts, and he could have a tough time returning to his top form this week against a Bengals defense that has been pretty stingy thus far. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Bijan Robinson (Falcons), Bucky Irving (Buccaneers), Rhamondre Stevenson (Patriots)

Wide Receiver

Biggest Winner: Tre Tucker (Raiders)

One of this week's top wire targets delivered in a big way, torching the Bills poor secondary for 97 YDS and 2 TD's on 5 receptions. While it's unlikely that he'll turn into a weekly starting option with Brock Bowers gobbling up so many targets from Kirk Cousins, Tucker's status as the Raiders de facto WR1 and explosive play ability should be enough to keep him rostered in most leagues moving forward. 

Honorable Mentions: Malik Nabers (Giants), Germie Bernard (Steelers), Matthew Golden (Packers)

Biggest Loser: A.J. Brown (Patriots)

It was an ugly return to action for Brown, who was activated from IR on Saturday morning after missing 4 games with a high ankle sprain. The Patriots wideout dropped 5 (!) passes and showed an alarming lack of chemistry with Drake Maye as he finished with just 3 catches for 27 YDS in a win over the Jets. Until Brown shows some form of life with his new team, he should be riding the bench in all leagues that have 12 teams or less. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Jaylen Waddle (Broncos), Michael Wilson (Cardinals), Denzel Boston (Browns)

Tight End

Biggest Winner: Isaiah Likely (Giants)

An in-game QB change didn't impact Likely in the slightest as negative gamescript caused the Giants to throw the ball like crazy in the second half as they attempted to (and just fell short) off pulling a crazy comeback win over the Saints. While Malik Nabers was the top dog in both receptions and YDS, Likely found the endzone, was on the receiving end of a 2 PT-CNV and turned his 6 receptions into an excellent 99 YDS. Whether it's Jameis Winston or J.J. McCarthy under center for the Giants on Sunday against the Texans, Likely will remain a must-start TE1. 

Honorable Mentions: Kyle Pitts (Falcons), Colston Loveland (Bears), George Kittle (49ers)

Biggest Loser: Juwan Johnson (Saints)

It was an odd day for the Saints offense as Tyler Shough threw for 3 TD's but only completed 15 passes for 144 YDS and turned to their running game down the stretch as they jumped out to a 34-10 lead with 11:31 left in the game. This unique situation left Johnson completely out in the cold as he failed to catch either of the targets that came his way and put together his 2nd straight dud after being a top fantasy TE through the opening 4 weeks of the season. Johnson will look to return to fantasy relevancy in Week 7 when the Saints travel over to Paris to take on the Steelers. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Harold Fannin Jr. (Browns), Mark Andrews (Ravens), Jake Ferguson (Cowboys)

Defense/Special Teams

Biggest Winner: Chiefs

The Chargers anemic offense got completely picked apart by Steve Spagnuolo on Sunday, registering 4 sacks, an INT and fumble recovery in a commanding 22-6 win for the still undefeated Chiefs. This strong fantasy D/ST has another plus matchup in Week 7 against a Seahawks team that has struggled with allowing sacks and giveaways of late.

Honorable Mentions: Broncos, Steelers, Ravens

Biggest Loser: Texans

As you can safely assume, the aforementioned great play of C.J. Stroud and Trevor Lawrence were coupled with dismal showings from their respective defenses. Despite them being good enough on the last drive to help secure the win, Lawrence's status as the top fantasy QB made the Texans a slightly weaker option. They were held without a sack for the 1st time this season and a redzone INT by Calen Bullock proved to be their lone fantasy highlight in the 34-31 victory. A return to the top of the board is very much in play in Week 7 as they face a Giants team that has turned the ball over an absurd 9 times in their past 3 games. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Jaguars, Rams, Seahawks

Eric André Ranked

 Welcome to "Ranked", a weekly series where I rank a franchise or filmography from worst to best and hand out assorted related superlatives. This week, I'm profiling the work of Eric André-whose latest project "Street Fighter" releases in theaters today.

Eric André's Filmography Ranked:

12.The Lion King (D+)

11.Balls Up (C-)

10.I Love Boosters (C-)

9.The Internship (B-)

8.Happy Gilmore 2 (B-)

7.Little Brother (B)

6.Jackass 4.5 (B+)

5.Rough Night (B+)

4.The Mitchells vs. the Machines (B+)

3.Bad Trip (A)

2.Jackass Forever (A)

1.Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping (A)

Top Dog: Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping (2016)

The brutal commercial failure of Popstar nine years after Hot Rod faceplanted at the box office has effectively killed any chance of The Lonely Island getting the opportunity to make another movie. If Popstar does prove to be the last time the comedy trio get to make a movie together, at least they went out with a bang. Parodying the record label PR-driven music documentaries of the early-to-mid 2010's provided them with the perfect vehicle for their goofy absurdist sense of humor and it leads to some of the funniest songs/situational comedy they've ever written. Special shoutout to them for recognizing that Tim Meadows is one of the funniest people alive and handing him a role that allows him to show that off in literally every scene he's in. 

Bottom Feeder: The Lion King (2019)

Of all the Disney "live action" remakes that I've seen, this is the most soulless and useless. This film feeling like it's about 20 minutes long despite being nearly a half hour longer than the original is a magic trick so grand that it would blow Criss Angel's mind. Guess that's just the power of recreating all of the major scenes from the animated version via CGI without injecting any of the emotion or colorful visuals that made them so special in the first place. 

Most Underrated: Bad Trip (2021)

Handing André a real budget to do his chaotic hidden camera pranks and weaving in a simple but effective road trip narrative to tie them all together leads to easily one of the funniest movies released this decade. It sucks that Bad Trip ended up being a COVID streaming casualty (the pre-Amazon acquistion MGM regime sold it off to Netflix in May 2020) because this would've ripped even harder in a theater full of degenerate André fans.

Most Overrated: I Love Boosters (2026)

This isn't the fairest inclusion as the reception hasn't been particularly rapturous and it didn't even hit $10 million during its box office run this spring/summer. However, I Love Boosters has just enough cache in cinephile circles to push into this spot. I've been very vocal about my disdain for Boots Riley's debut Sorry to Bother You and while this is certainly an improvement over that obnoxious trainwreck, it's still an unfocused and mostly unfunny satire that can't parlay its good politics into a good movie.

Week 5 Fantasy Football Winners and Losers: 2026 Edition

 Quarterback

Biggest Winner: Drake Maye (Patriots)

Remarkably, Maye was even better in Week 5 against the Raiders than he was in Week 4 against the Bills. The Patriots quarterback was dialed in from the jump, slicing through the Raiders defense for 398 total YDS (374 passing 25 rushing) and 5 scores. Best of all, he didn't the turn ball over after logging a league-high 9 giveaways through the opening 4 games. Maye will hope to make it 3 great showings in a row when the Jets come to Gilette Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Honorable Mentions: Jayden Daniels (Commanders), Jared Goff (Lions), Jacoby Brissett (Cardinals)

Biggest Loser: Tyler Shough (Saints)

Frankly, Shough didn't stand much of a chance squaring off against the Vikings ferocious defense behind a makeshift offensive line and the results were predictably awful. Being under siege all day and having to rely on sheer gunslinging desperation to try and move the ball downfield led Shough to produce one of the worst lines you'll see from a starting QB this season (96 YDS, 0 TD's, 2 INT's). He's a terrific bounceback candidate for Week 6 against a Giants defense that has had its share of struggles defending the pass so far this season.

Dishonorable Mentions: Dak Prescott (Cowboys), Jalen Hurts (Eagles), Bo Nix (Broncos)

Running Back

Biggest Winner: Jahmyr Gibbs (Lions)

After a very quiet showing by his lofty standards against the Panthers last week, Gibbs returned to his normal elite form by absolutely obliterating the Cardinals defense (207 scrimmage YDS and 2 rushing TD's on 30 touches) in a blowout win for the Lions. Gibbs' owners will have to shoulder the burden of inserting a vastly inferior RB into their lineup while the dual-threat fantasy monster is on bye.

Honorable Mentions: Jaylen Warren (Steelers), Bucky Iriving (Buccaneers), Derrick Henry (Ravens)

Biggest Loser: Jeremiyah Love (Cardinals)

Gibbs' counterpart on the Cardinals offense had a much less productive outing. Love got completely stuffed on the ground, turning his 12 carries into just 22 YDS and failed to catch his only target on the day as the Cardinals pivoted to a pass-dominant attack early in the second half once the Lions blew the game wide open. Love, who is playing through the ankle injury he suffered back in training camp, will be a shaky RB2/FLEX play in Week 6 against the Rams.

Dishonorable Mentions: Chase Brown (Bengals), Omarion Hampton (Chargers), Cam Skattebo (Giants)

Wide Receiver

Biggest Winner: Puka Nacua (Rams)

While Nacua wasn't making huge splash plays against the Bills last night, Matthew Stafford was going his way on basically every other pass he threw for the entire game. The star wideout set a new career-high by hauling in 17 receptions on 24 targets, which he turned into 138 YDS and a TD as the Rams lost a heartbreaking OT shootout on their home field. Up next for Nacua is a dream matchup with the lowly Cardinals secondary. 

Honorable Mentions: Christian Watson (Packers), Parker Washington (Jaguars), Malik Nabers (Giants)

Biggest Loser: Jaylen Waddle (Broncos)

Sean Payton snatching the playcalling duties from his alleged understudy Davis Webb did nothing to help Waddle's output this week. The Broncos big offseason acquisition was once again pretty invisible despite having a favorable matchup against the Chargers, catching 2-of-5 targets for 19 YDS and gaining 9-YDS on his lone rush attempt. Waddle's next opportunity to put a stop to the incredibly underwhelming start to his Broncos career will be Thursday night against the Seahawks.  

Dishonorable Mentions: Carnell Tate (Titans), Tee Higgins (Bengals), Michael Wilson (Cardinals)

Tight End

Biggest Winner: Isaiah Likely (Giants)

Likely was one of the key cogs in the Giants improbable second half comeback that led to one of the most absurd ties in NFL history against the Commanders on Sunday, hauling in a career-high 11 receptions for 94 YDS and 2 TD's. After a quiet first couple games with Jameis Winston under center, Likely has forged a strong connection with the veteran QB and it's incredibly encouraging that his target share hasn't really been impacted by Malik Nabers' return to elite form over the past couple of weeks.

Honorable Mentions: Brock Bowers (Raiders), Tyler Warren (Colts), Sam LaPorta (Lions)

Biggest Loser: Harold Fannin Jr. (Browns)

Deshaun Watson went back to struggling mightily in the Browns ugly Week 6 loss to the Jets and only Denzel Boston escaped unscathed from a fantasy perspective. Fannin Jr. suffered a particularly cruel fate, catching just 1-of-4 targets for 4 YDS on the day. The talented 2nd year tight end could find himself in a tough spot once again in Week 6 if Watson struggles to get anything going against a Ravens defense that is starting gain confidence after back-to-back strong showings. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Dalton Kincaid (Bills), Colston Loveland (Bears), Juwan Johnson (Saints)

Defense/Special Teams

Biggest Winner: Texans

After 5 weeks, the Texans D/ST has finally showed off the elite form that made them the kings of this position a year ago. The porous Cam Ward-led Titans offense got completely stomped out by their division rivals from Southeast Texas, surrendering 4 sacks, an interception and fumble recovery in a 26-3 loss. The Texans are going to have to dig deep to put up another strong performance this week when they travel to London to take on the AFC South-leading Jaguars.

Honorable Mentions: Broncos, Vikings, Bengals

Biggest Loser: Rams

Neither defense looked particularly good -especially in the second half and OT-during the back-and-forth battle between the Rams and Bills last night, but the losing team was the only one that was owned/played by a good amount of fantasy players. While Chris Shula's group did get a sack, INT and fumble recovery, any good they did was undone by the fact that they had allowed 37 points by the time the final whistle blew. Fortunately for them, redemption could be imminent as they're set to square off with the reeling 1-4 Cardinals in Week 6. 

Dishonorable Mentions: Jaguars, Steelers, Cowboys

Quick Movie Reviews: Verity, Other Mommy, The Social Reckoning

Verity: There's a serious conundrum that exists at the core of Verity that largely dictated how I ended up feeling about it: It's committed enough to its trashiness to go down as a competent wine mom psychological thriller but restrained enough to make you wonder why they refused to crank up the volume of the camp. Who is the main culprit behind Verity's miscalculated timid streak? Well, it's definitely not the cast. Dakota Johnson and Josh Hartnett do a pretty good job of selling the slowly escalating flirtation that turns into a tryst that really puts their characters into a jam that they're going to have a hard time wiggling out of while Anne Hathaway relishes the opportunity to chew up some scenery as the titular author who brings all these crazy kids together whenever she's liberated from the catatonic state she spends most of the film in. Screenwriter Nick Antosca also deserves to be (mostly) exonerated. While his script definitely runs into some roadblocks as it lays out its absurd plot that's reverse engineered to inspire debate about the reality of what transpired in the film once the big twist is revealed, but the blueprint for fun trash never falls out of sight and it even becomes pretty fully realized when the temperature finally rises from slightly simmering to a decent boil in the final act. This narrows the suspect list down to one person and he is indeed the guilty party: director Michael Showwalter. Unlike his fellow comedy vet Paul Feig-who pretty seamlessly adapted to this world with his efforts on A Simple Favor and The Housemaid, Showalter has no feel for composing the twisty, trashy rhythms a film like this requires to thrive. His direction is far too icy and distant for such an in-your-face story, and his low energy approach bogs the movie down until the sheer ridiculousness of the material becomes so powerful that it drags his overmatched ass across the finish line despite his best efforts to halt the momentum. Seeing his name pop up in the end credits felt like watching Landry Shamet celebrate on the floor when the Knicks won the title back in June: He may have been on the floor a lot, but he didn't ultimately contribute much of anything to the winning effort. If Showalter has any interest in coming back to direct something like again, he's going to need get back in the gym and work on his jumper (and by jumper, I of course mean not being afraid to go for broke when making a movie that's designed to be a larger-than-life carnival of unapologetically silly excess). 

Grade: B-

Other Mommy: Rob Savage has made a movie that is so breathless that there's basically no time to think about its underwritten story, goofy CGI or predictable scare patterns. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say that Other Mommy takes maybe five minutes to introduce its shape-shifting demonic entity that takes the form of a lonely, unhappy seven-year-old girl's (Arabella Olivia Clark) mother (Jessica Chastain) and never takes its foot off the gas until the credits roll roughly 85 minutes later. The sheer relentlessness of the entire affair paired with the solid performances from Chastain and Clark and Savage's inspired stylized shot compositions that features plenty of playful camerawork made this a nice October diversion.

Grade: B-

The Social Reckoning: Drawing constant comparisons to The Social Network was the inevitable fate that Aaron Sorkin created for himself when he elected to revisit the impact Mark Zuckerberg has made on our society for The Social Reckoning. Having to live in the shadow of a beloved, era-defining piece of cinema is a frankly a no-win game, especially when this new film that has been accurately described as more of a companion piece than an actual sequel is a telling a much drier, less cinematic story and sees Sorkin himself taking over for David Fincher in the director's chair. Despite these albatrosses looming large over the project, Sorkin is able to forge ahead and make something worthwhile.

Underneath all of the tech jargon and creative liberties Sorkin takes to push forth this narrative centered around Facebook data engineer's Frances Haugen (Mikey Madison) unexpected journey to becoming a reluctant whistleblower after she contacts Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz (Jeremy Allen White) upon discovering how the company's changes to its algorithm that were aimed to increase time spent on the platform led to a significant jump in the spread of misinformation, hate speech, etc,  The Social Reckoning paints a pretty damning picture of how much social media companies have helped erode the concept of truth in our world. While the revelations in The Social Reckoning aren't overly surprising to anyone who uses the internet and/or has experience talking to people who've been radicalized by reading fabricated ragebait/fearmongering stories masquerading as fact-based reporting online , it's still chilling to watch a movie that lays out how the people running these platforms knowingly sold out the well-being of the world just to collect bigger checks and endear themselves to politicians who would support the further deregulation of their industry. There was part of me that was concerned that Sorkin was going to paint Haugen's whistleblowing efforts as a bigger triumph than they actually were once she finally decides to go on the record late in the movie. To my surprise, he instead decided to soberly acknowledges that while she did inflict some financial/PR damage to Zuckerberg's empire, she failed to topple the behemoth of unchecked toxicity and lies that serve as the main drivers of his platforms. Framing Haugen and Horwitz's work on the story that became known as The Facebook Files as merely a small victory in a larger war that may or may not be able to be won strengthened everything that came before it and confirmed that Sorkin is much less naive about what truth actually means in today's society than some other of the AARP-aged filmmakers out there today. A solid, well-acted (in addition to Madison and White's strong work in the lead roles, Jeremy Strong's fragile, deeply pathetic take on Zuckerberg is kind of mesmerizing and Betty Glipin threatens to steal the show in her limited screen time as Horwitz's snarky hardass editor at The Wall Street Journal) journalism movie was the best-case scenario for this project and I hope that this won't be the last time that Sorkin gets the chance to sit in the director's chair. 

Grade: B

Way Too Early Oscar Predictions: 2026 Edition

Feel free to file this away and throw it in my face if it proves to be wildly inaccurate, but this year's Oscar races are looking a lot clearer than they usually do at this stage of the process. All of the acting categories save for Best Actor already appear to be down to fields of seven or eight contenders for the five nominations while Best Picture is starting to look like a two-horse race between Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and Spanish epic drama La bola negra-which is aiming to become Netflix's first ever BP winner. Why does there appear to be so much certainty compared to the last few years where chaos reigned? I'm not quite sure, but so many heavy hitters either debuting at Cannes in May or releasing before the fall certainly feels like it played a role.

It needs to be noted that despite my belief that the field already feels relatively settled, there are still a handful of potential contenders out there including Dune: Part Three, The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth, Werwulf and The Mosquito Bowl that have yet to screen publicly that have the potential to shake up the landscape if they generate enough fanfare. With that important caveat now out of the way, here are my way too early predictions for the 2026 Oscars excluding Best Original Song and the Short Film categories.
