Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles was vintage Darren Sproles in Week 16, running the ball nine times for 32 yards and adding three catches for 76 yards and a touchdown.

Josh Adams Does Next to Nothing in Week 16
Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams ran the ball 11 times, gaining just 21 yards in Sunday's win. He fumbled in the fourth quarter, nearly losing the game for his team. Adams barely showed up on fantasy scoreboards and has fallen into low-end flex status at best. He is not involved in the passing game […]

Nick Foles Goes Nuts in Week 16
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles annihilated the Houston Texans defense in Week 16. He completed 35 of his 49 pass attempts for 471 yards and four touchdowns. He did throw an interception, but anyone who started Foles in their fantasy championship matchup likely did not mind the pick. Foles got some help from great plays […]

Cole Beasley Racks Up 50 Yards in Week 16
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley caught five passes, gaining 50 yards on Sunday. Beasley has suddenly become more involved in the passing game over the past two weeks, making nine catches for 92 yards. He'd be a low-end flex play if the pattern continued, but there's a chance the Cowboys elect to rest Beasley […]

Michael Gallup Hauls in a Touchdown in Week 16
Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Michael Gallup caught three passes on Sunday, gaining 53 yards and scoring a touchdown.

Wendell Smallwood Scores Two Touchdowns in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood scored two touchdowns in Week 15. He ran the ball 10 times, gaining 48 yards.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams had a hard time getting anything going on Sunday night, running the ball 15 times for just 28 yards.

Zach Ertz Only Hauls In Three Passes in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz was targeted seven times in Week 15, but only came down with three catches, gaining 22 yards. Nick Foles started in place of Carson Wentz (back) and led the Eagles to a big enough lead that they were mostly running the clock in the second half, limiting Ertz's opportunities. […]

Golden Tate Catches Five Passes in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Golden Tate caught five passes on Sunday night, gaining 43 yards. With Nick Foles filling in at quarterback for the injured Carson Wentz (back), Tate had a slightly expanded role. He was still well behind Zach Ertz and Alshon Jeffery, but Tate could again be usable in deeper leagues for the […]

Alshon Jeffery Stars on Sunday Night Football in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery had a strong game in Week 15, catching eight passes for 160 yards. Jeffery had been fading fast with Carson Wentz under center, but with Nick Foles starting tonight and likely for the remainder of the season, Jeffery could end up finishing the season strong. He's back in the […]

Nick Foles Leads the Eagles to a Week 15 Win
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles completed 24 of his 31 pass attempts for 270 yards on Sunday night. He threw an interception but did not connect for a touchdown. Foles was filling in for starter Carson Wentz (back) and will likely do so for the rest of the season. He may be useful in 2QB […]

Blake Jarwin Leads the Cowboys in Receiving Yards in Week 15
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin caught four passes on Sunday, gaining 45 yards. He was the Cowboys' leading receiver in the game, which says all you need to know about the Dallas offense in this one. Jarwin seems to be taking on the classic Jason Witten floor-TE role. He can likely be started in […]

Amari Cooper Has His Worst Game as a Cowboy in Week 15
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper caught just four passes in Week 15, gaining 32 yards. The entire Dallas offense was a mess, as they did not score and rarely even came close to the end zone. Cooper was targeted six times, but quarterback Dak Prescott was sailing overthrows all day. Cooper should fare better […]

Ezekiel Elliott Makes the Only Noise for the Cowboys
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was the only watchable player on the Cowboys offense in Week 15. His team was held scoreless, but Elliott ran the ball 18 times for 87 yards and caught seven passes for 41 more yards. The Cowboys only got near the end zone once and Elliott was stuffed on […]

Dak Prescott Has a Forgettable Week 15
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a rough game in Week 15, completing 24 of his 39 pass attempts for just 206 yards. He threw an interception but no touchdowns, as the Cowboys were shut out. Prescott was being talked about as a low-end QB1 for this one, but the entire Dallas offense just looked […]

Eagles Defense Not Recommended in Week 15
The Philadelphia Eagles defense is not a recommended fantasy option for a Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. In a game that could get out of hand quickly, the Eagles and their immensely exploitable secondary should be nowhere near fantasy lineups. Since their Week 10 bye, opposing quarterbacks have completed about 73 percent […]

Cowboys Defense a Solid Week 15 Fantasy Option
The Dallas Cowboys defense is a solid choice for a Week 15 fantasy lineup. The Cowboys have been a top-10 fantasy defense for the past month, and even though they hit a bit of a speed bump in last week's overtime win, they are still shaping up as a good option for any lineup. The […]

Golden Tate Hard to Trust in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Golden Tate is difficult to trust as a starting option in Week 15. Not only will he be taking on a strong Los Angeles Rams defense, he will also very likely be working with backup quarterback Nick Foles. Tate and Alshon Jeffery have each put up just one week of WR3 […]

Alshon Jeffery a Risky Play in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery was already going to be a risky play in Week 15 when Carson Wentz (back) was expected to play. With Nick Foles now set to make the start, Jeffery is no better than a floor-play WR3. Since Golden Tate joined the Eagles, Jeffery has only had one week where […]

Zach Ertz Still a Great Option in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is still an excellent fantasy option in Week 15 despite losing starting quarterback Carson Wentz (back) to injury. Nick Foles, Wentz's backup and the expected Week 15 starter, loves throwing to Ertz and will likely need to do so plenty of times in what is expected to be a […]

Josh Adams a Risky Option in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams will be hard to trust in a Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Adams is a rushing-only type of back, rarely seeing any targets in the passing game. With the Eagles defense struggling to do anything, the Rams could jump out to a big lead in this […]

Nick Foles Expected to Start in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles is expected to get the start in Week 15. Starter Carson Wentz is dealing with back spasms and while he has not yet been officially ruled out, he is not expected to be able to play on Sunday. Foles is likely available on most waiver wires, but he's not a […]

Carson Wentz Not Expected to Play in Week 15
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is not expected to play in Week 15 due to back spasms. He missed practice on Wednesday, and soon after, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Wentz is not expected to be able to play on Sunday against the Rams. The Eagles will turn to Nick Foles, downgrading all of […]

Blake Jarwin a Sneaky Option in Week 15
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is a sneaky option for Week 15. Jarwin came somewhat out of nowhere last week and ran 38 pass routes, making seven catches for 56 yards. The Colts defense shuts down wide receivers, but opposing teams have been able to funnel passes to their running backs and tight ends. […]

Amari Cooper a Solid Week 15 Option Even With a Tough Matchup
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is a solid option in Week 15 despite facing off against a tough Colts defense. Since joining the Cowboys, Cooper has been the second highest scoring wide receiver in the NFL in terms of fantasy points, and he leads the league in receiving yardage. He's seen a full 25 […]

Ezekiel Elliott a Prime Option for Week 15
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is an excellent starting option in any Week 15 lineup. Elliott was solid enough when he was just running the ball, but since the Week 8 bye, he has made the second most catches among running backs. He's also led the league in yards from scrimmage since then. Truly […]
