Brett Maher Makes Three Field Goals and an Extra Point

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made three field goals and an extra point in a Week 6 loss to the New York Jets. Maher made field goals from 50, 62, and 32 yards out, but missed a 40-yard kick. Players in long field goal bonus leagues were likely thrilled with Maher's performance in this one. […]

Blake Jarwin Makes Two Catches in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin made two catches in Week 6, picking up just six yards. Jason Witten tied for the team lead with seven targets, leaving Jarwin to just pick up the scraps behind him. With the Dallas passing game not really clicking, Jarwin won't be much of a fantasy option next week, […]

Cedrick Wilson Shows Up on the Cowboys Box Score

A Dallas Cowboys wide receiver named Cedrick Wilson caught five passes in Week 6, gaining 46 yards. With Randall Cobb and Devin Smith both inactive then Amari Cooper being forced to leave with a quad injury, Wilson came out of nowhere to show up on the box score for the first time this season. Even […]

Michael Gallup Catches Four Balls in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup came down with four catches in Week 6, gaining 48 yards. Gallup tied for the team lead with seven targets and could be in for some big games going forward if Amari Cooper (quad) is forced to miss time. The Dallas passing game just wasn't clicking in this one, […]

Jason Witten Picks Up 57 Yards in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught five passes in Week 6, gaining 57 yards. Witten was targeted seven times, tying for the team lead. The most important play involving Witten was one he didn't make though, as he was unable to come up with a last-minute two-point conversion which would have tied the game. […]

Tavon Austin Leads the Cowboys in Receiving

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tavon Austin led the Cowboys in receiving in Week 6. With Amari Cooper forced to leave the game early with a quad injury, Austin was left to make five catches and gain 64 yards on six targets. The Dallas passing game wasn't working well in general, but Austin was able to […]

Tony Pollard Gets Just Three Carries in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard ran the ball just three times in Week 6, gaining 13 yards. Like usual, Pollard looked good with the ball in his hands, but he played only when starter Ezekiel Elliott needed a breather. He's still one of the highest upside handcuffs in fantasy, but Pollard won't be […]

Ezekiel Elliott Runs Well in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott played well in a Week 6 loss to the New York Jets. On the ground, he ran the ball 28 times for 105 yards and a touchdown. Through the air, he came up with five catches, gaining 47 yards. Elliott's score was a five-yard run in the fourth quarter. […]

Dak Prescott Struggles in Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott struggled in Week 6, throwing for just 277 scoreless yards. Dak completed 28 passes on 40 tries, but was able to add 11 yards and a touchdown on the ground. The New York Jets Defense somehow managed to keep the Cowboys passing game out of the end zone, partly because […]

Eagles Defense Struggles Against Minnesota in Week 6

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense struggled against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 6, allowing 38 points. They recorded just one interception, one sack, and one fumble recovery. Stefon Diggs ran wild all over the Eagles secondary and the Vikings had no trouble moving the ball and getting it into the end zone all afternoon. The Eagles […]

Jake Elliott Makes Two Field Goals and Two Extra Points

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all of his kicks in Week 6. Elliott split the uprights on his two extra point attempts and also made field goals from 53 and 40 yards out. It was a solid performance for Elliott, who should continue to be one of the more consistent fantasy kickers going forward.

Dallas Goedert Catches Five Passes in a Week 6 Loss

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught five passes in Week 6, gaining 48 yards. He was targeted eight times, and was much more involved than he'd been in previous games, with Zach Ertz seeing just one more target. Goedert is about due for a "blow up" game, but his usage remains too inconsistent to […]

Zach Ertz Catches Four Passes and Loses a Fumble

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught four passes in Week 6, gaining 54 scoreless yards and losing a fumble. Ertz was targeted nine times, but has now scored just one touchdown through six weeks of the season. He hasn't gone over 72 yards receiving yet either. In a position as shallow as tight end, […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not Even Targeted in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside was not even targeted in Week 6. The hyped-up rookie now has two games in a row where he's drawn no targets. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) on his way back to the field soon, Arcega-Whiteside will continue to have zero value in redraft formats.

Mack Hollins Comes Up With Nothing in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins did nothing in Week 6, making no catches on two targets. Hollins was on the field in three-wide sets but only saw two balls go his way and did nothing with them. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) targeting a Week 7 return, Hollins should return to his special teams role […]

Nelson Agholor Catches Four Passes in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor caught four passes in Week 6, gaining 42 scoreless yards. He had one catch in his last two games combined, so while it was nice to see him come down with the four catches, he didn't really do much to inspire confidence in his play going forward. He simply […]

Alshon Jeffery Catches 10 Passes and Scores in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery caught 10 passes in Week 6, gaining 76 yards and scoring a touchdown. Jeffery was faded in many rankings this week as he was taking on the Minnesota Vikings secondary, but he picked up several quick short passes and came down with a three-yard touchdown in the third quarter. […]

Boston Scott Gets Four Carries in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott carried the ball four times in Week 6, gaining 30 yards. Scott was just elevated to the active roster from the practice squad this week, to take the place of Corey Clement (shoulder) on the running back depth chart. Scott will serve mostly in a complementary role on offense […]

Miles Sanders Scores a Touchdown in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders made the most of his touches in Week 6. Sanders carried the ball just three times, gaining six yards. All of his damage came through the air though, where he caught three passes for 86 yards and a touchdown. The rookie's score came on a 32-yard pass from […]

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 […]
