Matchups We Love

Jalen Hurts (QB, PHI)

After surviving a murderer's row of opponents, including the Cowboys, Chiefs, and Bills, the Eagles fell flat against the 49ers. It's difficult to maintain the level of discipline, energy, and execution against the caliber of teams they played for four straight weeks. While the Cowboys are back up on the docket, you can bet Philly will be completely locked in for this game with the No. 1 seed and the division crown on the line. Hurts had an injury scare in Week 13, but quickly returned to the game. He's been managing a knee issue for several weeks, but it hasn't affected his performance.

Eagles WRs

Both A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith were great as usual. The only wrinkle here is that Dallas Goedert is nearing a return with his eyes set on this week. Given the huge over/under and it being Goedert's first game back, it's not enough to move off of Smith this week, but it's worth monitoring.

Dak Prescott (QB, DAL)

Prescott was forced to keep slinging it and keep scoring for his team to come out on top of the 76-point fireworks show last Thursday. It was an impressive win, but this game is even more important for the reasons mentioned above. They nearly knocked off their division rivals last time, but made some mistakes down the stretch that cost them a victory. You can expect these two QBs to finish among the best when the week is done.

CeeDee Lamb (WR, DAL)

Lamb is on another level right now that only the most elite players in the game stack up to. Matching up against the Eagles' porous pass defense should keep that momentum rolling. It's not just him though. Brandin Cooks has found the end zone in three of the past four outings with 70-plus yards twice. He's also set up for a big week.

Matchups We Hate

Matchups We Hate:

D'Andre Swift (RB, PHI)

Swift has been outside the top 24 in three of the past four weeks. The exception was the rainy game in Kansas City where he found pay dirt. Jalen Hurts keeps stealing touchdowns on the ground, plus Kenneth Gainwell has seen his receiving role grow. On such a high-powered offense with a great O-line, there's reason to be optimistic, but he's not someone to view as an elite back for fantasy right now given the committee he's stuck in.

Other Matchups

Tony Pollard (RB, DAL)

Pollard's been on an excellent three-week run, finding the end zone and racking up 80-plus yards. He's also been a focal point of the passing attack, with 13 receptions. It's a tough matchup, but the offense will move the ball, setting him up for opportunities near the goal line. Plus, he'll be utilized as an outlet when there's pressure on Prescott.

Jake Ferguson (TE, DAL)

Ferguson had his second-best game of the year last week with six receptions for 77 yards and a touchdown. He gets another awesome matchup this week against Philly, locking him into the top 10.

Dallas Goedert (TE, PHI)

Goedert is back this week, and although there's some added risk because his snaps might be limited, but there's also plenty of upside in this offense with the potential for lots of points on the board.
