On this date in 2002, Shaun Alexander single-handedly won fantasy matchups. 5 TDs in the first half. 56.1 PPR points. An all-time fantasy blow-up. 💭 Which legendary performance sticks in YOUR memory? #FantasyFootball #OnThisDate #NFLHistory #Seahawks #WTFantasy

2020 gave us two Titans–Texans classics. Week 6: Henry 212 rush yds + OT winner. Week 17: Henry 250 more + Sloman walk-off FG. Both games stuffed with QB1s, WR1s, and fantasy fireworks. 🔥 #FantasyFootball #NFL #Titans #Texans

Wasn't expecting the Fantasy Football Historian to make me cry today. Thanks for handling this tragic passing with the grace, respect and thoughtfulness Rudi deserves.

Remembering Rudi Johnson. 🕊️ A quiet star of the 2000s, with three straight 1,300+ yard seasons and fantasy dominance. He gave us consistency, toughness, and Sundays to remember. Gone too soon. #RudiJohnson #Bengals #FantasyFootball #MentalHealthAwareness

2021 Ravens vs Chiefs. Lamar ran wild (34.3 pts, QB2). Kelce dominated (23.9 pts, TE1). Tyreek Hill disappeared (4.9 pts). And CEH fumbled away the game. One of the great fantasy + real football crossovers of the decade. #FantasyFootball #NFL #Ravens #Chiefs

Week 3, 1986 — Jets 51, Dolphins 45 (OT). Marino threw for 448 yards and 6 TDs. Ken O’Brien matched with 479 and 4 scores. Wesley Walker exploded for 194 yards and 4 TDs—including the 43-yard game winner And Don’t forget the Mark’s Brothers #FantasyFootball #NFLHistory #Jets #Dolphins

Week 2, 1999 — Stephen Davis goes from backup to fantasy league-winner. 126 yards & 3 TD vs. the Giants 💥 After 109 & 2 in Week 1, the breakout was official. By season’s end: 1,405 yards, 17 TD in just 14 games. 🏆 #FantasyFootball #NFLHistory #StephenDavis #Giants #Washington #FFHistorian

Packers jumped out 31–0… then the fantasy fireworks began. 💥 Rodgers tossed 480 & 4, his WRs feasted, and RGIII piled up comeback stats with Garçon leading the charge. A reminder: in fantasy, garbage time is gold. 🏆 #FantasyFootball #NFLHistory #GarbageTime #TheFantasyFootballHistorian

Week 2, 2015 Steelers vs 49ers = fantasy gold. 🏈💰 AB went nuclear 💣 9/195/1 for 34.5 PPR 🔥 D’Angelo Williams turned back the clock ⏰ 3 rushing TDs! Kaepernick still stacked 26.5 points in garbage time.

Baltimore fans were a mess the day after this game. I loved it.
