NFL Overreaction Week 6: New QB in MVP Discussion, Chiefs Beat Lions
USA TODAY Sports' Lorenzo Reyes is “overreacting” to some of the best games of Week 6 on Sunday.
Don’t look now, but there is an extremely underrated kicker that most fantasy football managers have no idea how effective he will be this season.
Eddy Pineiro of the San Francisco 49ers was the No. 1 kicker in Week 6, accounting for 4 field goals and 1 PAT. Pinero, who has played in just 25% of Yahoo League games, has hit all 15 field goal attempts this season, including 4-for-4 of 50 yards or more, and is just one short of tying the Dallas Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey as the highest-rated kicker in fantasy.
But we have not forgotten him here. He was our No. 3 when the Niners hosted the Falcons.
