Tony Pollard Could Get Some Run in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is too risky to start in Week 3 even though he could see a decent number of touches. Taking on the helpless Miami Dolphins, the Cowboys may turn to Pollard for parts of the second half in order to limit starting running back Ezekiel Elliott's snaps. Still, there […]

Ezekiel Elliott Could Be the Top Running Back in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott should be one of the top running back options for Week 3 and has No. 1 overall upside. Taking on the tanking Miami Dolphins, Elliott should find plenty of room to run, especially since the Cowboys will likely work on the ground for most of the second half in […]

Dak Prescott One of the Top Options in Week 3

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is one of the top fantasy quarterback options in a Week 3 game against the Miami Dolphins. Prescott threw three touchdowns in Week 2 and added 69 yards rushing. He'll face off against a barely-there Miami Dolphins team that has been outscored 102-10 through two weeks. Prescott is a surefire […]

Eagles Defense Not an Exciting Week 3 Option

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is not a particularly exciting option in a Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The Eagles defense came into the season with a lot of hype but have been mostly disappointing through the first two weeks. With two of the Eagles' top offensive playmakers likely to miss the game, the […]

Jake Elliott Looking at a Strong Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is looking like a strong option in a Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Elliott is always a solid and consistent option, but with the Eagles expected to be missing two of their top playmakers on Sunday, Elliott may see a few more field goal attempts as the passing […]

Zach Ertz Set for a Potentially Huge Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is set for what could potentially be an enormous Week 3 performance. Ertz saw 16 targets from quarterback Carson Wentz in Week 2 and could be in line for a similar number or perhaps even more against Detroit in Week 3. With top receiving options DeSean Jackson (groin) and […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Suddenly a Starter in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is suddenly looking at a starting role in Week 3. A preseason hero, Arcega-Whiteside was far behind on the wide receiver depth chart until both Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson got hurt in Week 2. Both were forced to leave the game and Arcega-Whiteside was on the field […]

Mack Hollins to See an Expanded Role in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins will likely see an increased offensive role in a Week 3 contest against the Detroit Lions. With top wide receivers Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson both expected to miss at least one game, Hollins will be needed on offense. He's been mostly working on special teams, but he saw […]

Nelson Agholor Thrust Into a Starting Role for Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor will likely be thrust into an every-down role in Week 3. With top wide receivers DeSean Jackson (groin) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) unlikely to suit up, Agholor will be wide receiver atop the depth chart. He spent the second half in Week 2 in the role, and despite some […]

Corey Clement Not a Fantasy Option in Any Format

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement is not a fantasy option in any format for Week 3. Clement has settled into a special teams role and has seen almost no offensive snaps so far this season. An injury to another running back could potentially thrust Clement into a more significant offensive role, but for now […]

Darren Sproles Not Recommended in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles is not a recommended fantasy option in any format in Week 3. After a somewhat surprisingly productive Week 1, Sproles took an expected step back in Week 2 and recorded just two catches for five yards. He did not record a single carry in Week 2. Sproles is a […]

Jordan Howard Too Risky of a Fantasy Option in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard is not a recommended fantasy option in a Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Howard picked up just 18 yards on the ground in Week 2 and will only put up a decent fantasy score if he scores a touchdown. A running back that is so touchdown-dependent without […]

Miles Sanders Has an Unexciting Week 3 Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders was one of the few Eagles offensive starters to escape Week 2 without an injury, but he's still not a very exciting fantasy choice for Week 3. Taking on a decent Detroit Lions run defense, Sanders is currently ranked on the RB2/3 turn. He could make for a […]

Carson Wentz Will Likely Be Without His Best Receivers in Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz likely won't be quite as strong a fantasy option as usual against the Detroit Lions in Week 3. Wentz watched both of his top wide receivers, DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery, leave the game in Week 2 with injuries. Both are officially questionable for Week 3, but most beat writers […]

Marcell Ozuna Drives in Four Runs on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Marcell Ozuna drove in four runs on Monday, providing all of the offense for starting pitcher Dakota Hudson and the Cardinals. Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a home run and a double, scoring a run and raising his slash line to .252/.332/.495. The home run was his 28th of the season, and […]

Carlos Martinez Picks Up His 20th Save on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Carlos Martinez collected his 20th save of the season on Monday, getting the last out of the game by throwing just two pitches. Martinez has been solid in his first go around as a closer, posting the 20 saves and an even 3.00 ERA. He should be a solid contributor in […]

Dakota Hudson Throws Seven Strong Innings on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Dakota Hudson threw seven great innings on Monday, allowing just two runs on five hits and two walks. Hudson was able to limit hard contact, but he didn't get too many swings-and-misses, racking up just one strikeout. Still, it was a solid performance from Hudson, who lowered his ERA to […]

Eagles Defense Gets Three Interceptions in Week 2

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense had an up-and-down Week 2. They allowed 24 points to the Atlanta Falcons, but they also recorded three interceptions and a sack. It was a performance that showed what the Eagles defense could do, but also how they might struggle. Still, they performed somewhat better than expected, as this game was […]

Jake Elliott Kicks Two Field Goals in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made both of his field goal attempts in Week 2. His kicks came from 34 and 41 yards out. Elliott did not attempt any extra points, as the Eagles were playing from behind and decided to go for a two-point conversion after their touchdowns. Elliott should continue to be one […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Makes His First NFL Catch in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside made his first NFL catch on Sunday night, gaining four yards. It was his only catch on a night where top wide receivers Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson were forced to leave in the first half along with tight end Dallas Goedert. Despite all of the preseason hype, […]

Darren Sproles Gets Just Two Offensive Touches in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles got just two offensive touches in Week 2. He didn't record a carry, but caught two passes for five yards. Fantasy owners who misinterpreted the role Sproles played in Week 1 were left with what was basically a hole in their lineup in Week 2. Sproles is the Eagles […]

Mack Hollins Catches Five Passes in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins showed up in Week 2 with five catches for 50 yards. Hollins was thrust into a bigger role after Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson were both forced to leave the game in the first half. Hollins could have some WR3/FLEX appeal in Week 3 if the top two wide […]

Zach Ertz Catches Eight Passes in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught eight passes in Week 2, gaining 72 yards. Ertz watched wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery leave the game in the first half due to injury, but Nelson Agholor ended up drawing most of Carson Wentz's targets in the second half. Still, Ertz's weekly TE1 outlook will […]

Nelson Agholor Makes the Most of His Increased Week 2 Role

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor took advantage of injuries on Sunday, catching eight passes for 107 yards and a touchdown. Agholor's score came on a four-yard pass from Carson Wentz in the third quarter. With DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery both forced to leave the game due to injury, Agholor took over as the […]

Jordan Howard Barely Moves the Ball in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard couldn't get anything going with the ball in Week 2. He gained 18 yards on eight carries, adding eight yards on his lone catch of the game. Howard and rookie Miles Sanders both struggled with the ball even though plenty of Eagles offensive playmakers missed time due to injury. […]

Miles Sanders Can't Get Much Going in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders couldn't get much going in Week 2. He ran the ball 10 times, gaining just 28 scoreless yards. He added three catches for nine more yards. Overall, it was a tough game for the Eagles on the ground, but Sanders did out-touch Jordan Howard by four. Sanders is […]

Carson Wentz Totals Two Touchdowns in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz found a way to make two touchdowns happen on Sunday night despite losing his two top receivers to injuries. With DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery both leaving due to injuries in the first half, Wentz was left with a preseason-like supporting cast for most of the game. Still, he threw […]

Michael Gallup Headed for an MRI

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday. Gallup played well on Sunday, leading the team with eight targets, but he missed the end of the fourth quarter with a knee issue. It's unclear how serious the team expects the injury to be, but more information will be available […]

Cowboys Defense Disappoints in Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys Defense disappointed its fantasy owners again in Week 2, allowing 21 points to Washington. They did not record an interception nor force a fumble, and only sacked quarterback Case Keenum once. The Cowboys defense was expected to be one of the best plays of Week 2, but ended up as a middling […]

Brett Maher Makes Four Extra Points and a Field Goal

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made all four of his extra-point attempts in Week 2, adding a 25-yard field goal as well. In a week where several kickers struggled, Maher was his usual consistent self. With the Cowboys offense clicking as it has been, Maher hasn't really been needed for field goals, but he should […]
