Amari Cooper a Risky but High-Upside Play for Week 12

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (knee) is a risky but potentially high-upside play in a Week 12 contest against the New England Patriots. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has already stated that Cooper is expected to play this week. He toughed it out last week, appearing on 55 percent of the offensive snaps. With another […]

Tony Pollard Off the Fantasy Radar in Week 12

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is not on the fantasy radar in Week 12. The Cowboys will be on the road facing the New England Patriots and the Patriots elite defense could give the Cowboys offense a hard time. With the team not expected to be able to move the ball particularly well, […]

Ezekiel Elliott Could Be Touchdown-Dependent in Week 12

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is coming off two straight ineffective running games and could have another lined up for Week 12 against the New England Patriots and their elite defense. Elliott has been able to maintain RB1 status thanks to finding the end zone twice last week, but he's only run for 47 […]

Dak Prescott Will Face a Tough Defense in Week 12

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has been excellent this season, but he will face his toughest challenge of the season in Week 12.

Eagles Defense Has an Uninspiring Game in Week 11

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense mostly held their own against the New England Patriots offense despite a 17-10 loss in Week 11. The Eagles allowed 17 points, but didn't record any turnovers.

Jake Elliott Makes Two Kicks in Week 11

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made both of his kicks in Week 11, one field goal and one extra point.

He should […]

Mack Hollins Targeted Just Once in Week 11

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins was targeted just once in Week 11, but was unable to come down with a catch.

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Makes His First Catch Since Week 3

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside made his first catch since Week 3 in a Week 11 loss to the New England Patriots. Arcega-Whiteside hasn't done much this season even with DeSean Jackson (abdomen, IR) and Alshon Jeffery (ankle) forced to miss some time. The rookie showed his upside today though, making a huge […]

Nelson Agholor Catches Four Passes in a Week 11 Loss

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor caught four passes in Week 11, gaining 40 yards. He was targeted nine times and as he always does, made some key drops.

Jay Ajayi Active but Doesn't Touch the Ball in Week 11

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi, just signed on Friday, was active for Week 11 but did not touch the ball. Rookie Miles Sanders and former special teamer Boston Scott worked out of the Eagles backfield with Jordan Howard (shoulder) inactive. Ajayi will eventually see his role grow, but he'll likely remain behind Sanders and […]

Carson Wentz Predictably Struggles in Week 11

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz struggled in Week 11 as expected. Facing off against an elite New England Patriots Defense, Wentz completed just 20 of his 40 passes for 214 yards and one touchdown. Wentz's score came early in the game on a first quarter five-yard pass to tight end Dallas Goedert. Wentz had some […]

David Montgomery Officially Active for Sunday Night Football

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery (ankle) is officially active for Sunday Night Football. Montgomery missed practice most of the week with an ankle injury and was listed as a game-time decision. He looked good enough in a limited Friday practice and in pre-game warmups to keep himself off the inactive list. He remains a […]

Cowboys Defense Disappoints in Week 11

The Dallas Cowboys Defense was disappointing again in Week 11. They managed a win, 35-27 over the Detroit Lions, but with Matthew Stafford (back) out for the Lions, the Cowboys defense was one of the top predicted units of the week. Instead, they allowed 27 points and did not record an interception or a fumble […]

Brett Maher Makes Two Field Goals and Three Extra Points

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made all of his kicks in Week 11, making two field goals and three extra points. He wasn't needed for any long kicks this time, making a long of just 34 yards, but he still showed the consistency that makes him one of the better kickers in fantasy football.

Blake Jarwin Catches Two Passes in Week 11

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin was targeted twice in Week 11, catching both passes for 38 yards. He fell significantly behind starter Jason Witten, who saw seven targets and caught five passes.

Jason Witten Catches Five Passes in Week 11

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught five passes in a Week 11 win over the Detroit Lions, gaining 33 yards. Witten did his usual thing, catching the ball then falling to the turf. Second tight end Blake Jarwin gained 38 yards on his two targets, but Witten was still clearly quarterback Dak Prescott's first […]

Amari Cooper Clearly Limited in Week 11

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (knee, ankle) was clearly not operating at 100% in Week 11. He ended up being on the field for just 56% of the team's offensive snaps, but the game plan still kept him somewhat involved, as he saw eight targets. He caught three of them, gaining 38 yards. Facing […]
