Fantasy Football Defenses to Stream Week 9
Fantasy owners looking to stream defenses for Week 9 get five under‑used options. The Chiefs (15th, 5.4 pts/game) face a low‑scoring Jets unit; the 49ers (10th, 7.0 pts) host a high‑powered Raiders offense; the Giants (20th, 5.1 pts) return from a bye against struggling Eagles; the Lions (25th, 4.0 pts) meet a 31st‑ranked Dolphins attack; and the Saints (23rd, 4.1 pts) tackle a 29th‑ranked Browns. All are owned in less than 55% of ESPN leagues, making them potential waiver‑wire steals.
Fantasy Football Players to Add Week 9
The Game Haus breaks down five under‑the‑radar RBs worth snagging in Week 9 of standard‑scoring fantasy leagues, each owned by under 55% of ESPN owners. Jonah Coleman (Broncos) is primed for a bigger role after an IR move to RJ Harvey, posting a TD and four catches vs. the Chiefs. Tyler Allgeier (Cardinals) exploded for 147 yards and two TDs while Jer Love’s ankle lingers. Raiders’ Mike Washington Jr. hauled 25 carries for 83 yards in Week 8, still a low‑draft pick at 17.5%. Packers’ MarShawn Lloyd could become a starter if Josh Jacobs gets suspended. Colts’ Seth McGowen may inherit work if Jonathan Taylor is traded before the Nov 10 deadline. All are viable waiver‑wire options for managers looking to boost their rosters.
5 Potential Head Coach Candidates for the Florida State Seminoles
After a 41-39 run, Florida State fired Mike Norvell following Week 9 and now has five likely replacements. Manny Diaz, the Duke coach who led the ACC champs and recruited heavily in Florida, could rebuild the Seminoles. Wake Forest’s Jake Dickert, 7‑1 this season, brings a proven 16‑5 record. Jason Eck, a defensive mastermind at New Mexico (14‑5) with FCS playoff success, offers a turn‑around blueprint. Arizona State’s Kenny Dillingham, a former FSU offensive coordinator with a 26‑21 record and a CFP appearance, may lure talent back. Charles Huff, who posted 32‑20 at Marshall and is 7‑2 at Memphis, is another fast‑acting candidate. The article weighs each coach’s recent performance, recruiting ties, and potential fit for Florida State’s next era.
