Jordan Howard Has a Pedestrian Week 6 Performance

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard didn't do much in Week 6. He ran the ball 13 times, gaining 49 yards. Howard's 3.8 yards per carry average wasn't anything special, and he added nothing in the passing game. Still, he clearly ran ahead of rookie Miles Sanders, who only carried the ball three times for […]

Carson Wentz Throws for Over 300 Yards in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz was solid despite an Eagles loss in Week 6. He threw for 306 yards, completing 26 of his 40 pass attempts. Wentz ended up with two touchdowns and threw an interception. It was the first 300 yard game since Week 1 for the Eagles quarterback, who matched up with Miles […]

Cowboys Defense a Great Option in Week 6

The Dallas Cowboys Defense is a strong fantasy option for a Week 6 matchup against the New York Jets. Even with quarterback Sam Darnold (mono) expected to return, the Cowboys should have no problem getting to him through the Jets porous offensive line. If the Patriots weren't playing an injury-riddled Giants team this week, the […]

Brett Maher Looks to Bounce Back in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher will look to bounce back from a tough Week 5 performance in Week 6 against the New York Jets. Maher made just one of his three field goal tries in Week 5, missing from 54 and 33 yards out. The Dallas offense should have no problem moving the ball in […]

Jason Witten Likely to Provide More of the Same

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten will likely provide more of the same for his fantasy teams in Week 6. The Cowboys hit the road to take on the New York Jets, and while the Jets have actually been excellent at limiting opposing tight ends, Witten should still be able to come up with his […]

Devin Smith No Longer a Fantasy Option

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Devin Smith is no longer a fantasy option in most formats. With Michael Gallup back and playing well, Smith will be relegated to maybe one or two deep balls per game. That's a far too inconsistent role to trot a guy out in a standard lineup. Smith could still be worth […]

Randall Cobb Just a Desperation Play in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is little more than a desperation play in a Week 6 game against the New York Jets. Cobb has been playing an important role on the field, but it hasn't translated to much fantasy success. With the Cowboys forced to throw for almost the entire game in Week 5, […]

Michael Gallup Could Have Another Big Game in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup could have another big game in Week 6 against the New York Jets. Gallup returned from a knee injury to catch seven passes in Week 5, gaining 113 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was targeted 14 times and should see heavy usage this week as well. With another […]

Amari Cooper Set Up for a Huge Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is set to have an excellent Week 6 performance. Traveling to New Jersey to take on the New York Jets, Cooper is ranked as a top-five option among wide receivers this week. He's coming off a strong 11-226-1 performance against the Green Bay Packers and gets a much softer […]

Tony Pollard Could Get Some Touches in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard could get a few more touches in Week 6. With the Cowboys expected to get out to a healthy lead against the New York Jets, Pollard could see some fourth quarter run as the Cowboys try to wind down the clock. It likely won't be quite as bad […]

Ezekiel Elliott the Top-Ranked Week 6 Running Back

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is the overall No. 1 ranked running back for Week 6. The Cowboys will hit the road to play the New York Jets and should have no trouble moving the ball and scoring points. Elliott could take over the offense and see tons of touches and scoring opportunities. With […]

Dak Prescott Looks For a More Even Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will look for a more even performance in Week 6 against the New York Jets. Prescott threw for a career-high 463 yards, but was picked off three times and threw just two touchdowns. The Packers Defense was giving him fits and forcing him to throw before he was ready much […]

Eagles Defense Just OK As Week 6 Option

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is just an OK option in Week 6. Traveling to Minnesota to take on the Vikings, the Eagles will have much more of a challenge on their hands compared to Week 5 against Luke Falk and the New York Jets. The Vikings running game has looked nearly unstoppable at times and they […]

Jake Elliott a Decent Option in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is a decent option for Week 6. Facing a Minnesota Vikings team that has limited opposing kickers brings Elliott's forecast down a tiny bit, but the Eagles kicker has been perfect on the season, making all five of his field goal attempts and all 14 of his extra points. The […]

Dallas Goedert a Low-Upside Option in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is a low-upside TE2 option in a Week 6 game against the Minnesota Vikings. Goedert has been mostly quiet this season, playing a supporting role behind Zach Ertz. Goedert has not been targeted more than three times in a game this season, and won't have any standard league value […]

Zach Ertz Facing a Challenge in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz will face a tough Minnesota Vikings Defense in Week 6. Still, he is one of the few matchup-proof tight ends in the league and will remain a top-half TE1. Ertz scored his first touchdown last week but has remained heavily involved in the passing game and could have a […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not a Week 6 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is not a starting fantasy option in Week 6. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) possibly rejoining the team, Arcega-Whiteside will be hard pressed to find much playing time. Even with Jackson out, the rookie was unable to do much with the opportunity, playing firmly behind career special teamer Mack […]

Mack Hollins Not a Strong Choice in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 6. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) nearing a return, Hollins' days in three-wide sets are coming to an end. Even if Jackson doesn't play on Sunday though, Hollins will have very limited fantasy value against a difficult Minnesota Vikings Defense. Hollins only […]

DeSean Jackson Could Return in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen) has a chance to return in Week 6. Jackson has missed three games due to injury, but when asked if Jackson would be on the field in Minnesota, coach Doug Pederson said, "We'll see. He's getting close." Jackson will likely draw a questionable tag and could be a […]

Nelson Agholor Cannot Be Trusted in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor cannot be relied on as a fantasy option in Week 6. Agholor has just one catch total in his past two games despite catching 16 in the two before that. He is way too volatile with drops, fumbles, and overall inconsistency to trust in a fantasy lineup. Combine all […]

Alshon Jeffery Could Have a Tough Time in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery has a difficult matchup on tap in Week 6. Hitting the road to face a tough Minnesota Vikings Defense, Jeffery is on the WR2/3 border this week. Usually a solid WR2 with some upside, the tough matchup knocks him down a bit. If DeSean Jackson (abdomen) were to return, […]

Darren Sproles Not a Week 6 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles has become an afterthought in the Eagles backfield and is not a starting option in any format in Week 6. After getting 12 touches in Week 1, Sproles has totaled just eight touches since then. He's almost exclusively on special teams at this point and would only develop fantasy […]

Miles Sanders Falling Into the RB3 Range in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders has taken a back seat to Jordan Howard in the Eagles backfield. Combine that with a trip to Minnesota to face a strong Vikings Defense, and Sanders is a risky RB3 play, at best, in Week 6. Howard is taking all of the scoring opportunities and Sanders has […]

Jordan Howard Faces a Challenge in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard has taken over the Eagles backfield but will face a tough challenge in Week 6. With the Eagles on the road to take on the Minnesota Vikings, Howard will be a solid RB2, but with limited upside thanks to the Vikings Defense. Howard has five touchdowns in his last […]

Carson Wentz Faces a Tough Minnesota Team in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz will face off against a tough Minnesota Vikings Defense in Week 6. Wentz underwhelmed in Week 5 mostly because the running game was working so well that he wasn't needed. Still, his fantasy owners ended up with just one touchdown and 189 yards on just 17 completed passes. Wentz will […]

Cowboys Defense Struggles in Week 5

The Dallas Cowboys Defense struggled against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in Week 5. They coughed up 34 points and didn't record any interceptions or force any fumbles. The defense sacked Aaron Rodgers only two times in a game the Packers had mostly under control from the opening kickoff. It was a rough […]

Brett Maher Misses Two Field Goals in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher missed two field goal attempts in a Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Maher made all three of his extra points and one field goal, but missed field goal tries from 54 and 33 yards. It was an uncharacteristically inaccurate day for Maher, who has otherwise been one […]

Blake Jarwin Doesn't Record a Statistic in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin wasn't targeted in a Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Starting tight end Jason Witten only caught three passes in a game where wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup each saw 14 targets. Jarwin could have some sudden value if Witten were forced to miss time, […]

Jason Witten Comes Down With Three Passes in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught three passes in Week 5, gaining 29 yards. Witten was targeted four times in a game where Dak Prescott had to throw 44 times. With wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup gobbling up 14 targets each, there wasn't much else to go around. Witten did his thing […]

Randall Cobb Catches Three Passes in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb caught three passes against his former team, the Green Bay Packers, in Week 5. Cobb's three catches gained him 53 yards. He was targeted six times and with Michael Gallup (knee) back on the field, Cobb returned to a complementary slot role. He's still a solid NFL player, but […]
