Javonte Williams Held In Check By Washington

Denver Broncos rookie running back Javonte Williams had nine carries (one fewer than Melvin Gordon) for 35 yards (3.9 yards per carry) in the 17-10 Week 8 win over the Washington Football Team. Williams also caught two of his four targets for an additional 13 yards, but he was held out of the end zone […]

Jack Doyle Scores A Touchdown In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle caught both passes for 12 yards and a touchdown during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. While Mo Alie-Cox had emerged as Carson Wentz's favorite tight end to target across their winning streak entering Week 8, Doyle was the one who found success through the […]

Tua Tagovailoa Struggles Against Bills

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa looked solid during his last two games, but fell back down to Earth in Week 8. The young quarterback completed 21-of-39 passing attempts for 205 yards with zero passing touchdowns and one interception in the loss. He also added four rushing attempts for 10 yards and one score on the […]

Melvin Gordon III Carries Offense With Two Touchdowns

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III was pretty much the entire offense in the team's 17-10 win over the Washington Football Team in Week 8 on Sunday. Gordon had a team-high 10 carries (one more than rookie Javonte Williams) for 47 yards (4.7 yards per carry) and a touchdown, and he also added another […]

T.Y. Hilton Held To 16 Yards In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton caught two of five targets for 16 yards during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. Hilton was largely disappointing during a quiet outing in Week 8, seeing the third-highest amount of targets from Carson Wentz but failing to produce meaningful plays with the opportunity. Injuries […]

Jamal Agnew Records Six Receptions Against Seattle

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jamal Agnew caught six of 12 targets for 38 yards in the team's 31-7 blowout loss at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks. While it was positive to see Agnew peppered with targets, his 50 percent catch rate was tough to stomach. The former special teams standout once again operated as […]

Zach Pascal Draws Eight Targets In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Zach Pascal caught five of eight targets for 43 yards during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. Pascal started the season as Carson Wentz's preferred target and soaked up three touchdowns in the first two games. However, Michael Pittman Jr. is developing great chemistry with Wentz in […]

Tommy Sweeney Quiet In Week 8

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney put together his biggest game of the season against the Miami Dolphins in Week 8. The young tight end hauled in three of his four targets for 30 yards in the win. He has become the No. 1 option at tight end after Dawson Knox (hand) went down. However, […]

Jameis Winston's Knee Injury Could Be Season-Ending

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton described quarterback Jameis Winston's (knee) injury as "significant," and it could be a season-ending situation. It didn't look good when a defender pulled him down on an illegal horse-collar tackle that caused his knee to buckle, and he was eventually carted into the locker room and never returned […]

Trevor Lawrence Mediocre In Blowout Loss

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence went 32-for-54 with 238 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the team's 31-7 blowout loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8. The rookie didn't chip in much on the ground either, rushing for just 11 yards in the game. While Lawrence certainly didn't play great, he was under […]

Gabriel Davis Snags TD In Victory

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis has been quiet since the season opener, but he made an impact on Sunday. The second-year wideout hauled in four of his five targets for 29 yards and one touchdown in the Week 8 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Before this game, Davis had seen five targets over the […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Scores Two Touchdowns In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. caught 10 of fifteen passes for 86 yards and two touchdowns during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. Pittman has become quarterback Carson Wentz's favorite target within the offense, and he scored two quick touchdowns to give the Colts an early lead before falling […]

Washington Defense Records Four Sacks

The Washington Football Team defense recorded four sacks and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Denver Broncos. It was a much-improved performance from what we have seen in the prior few weeks, so their value could be on the upswing if they can somehow get it together for the second half of […]

Emmanuel Sanders Held Without A Catch

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders has surprisingly been a reliable option for this offense this season. However, he failed to do much of anything against the Miami Dolphins in Week 8. Sanders was held without a reception on four targets in the win. This was his lowest amount of targets on the season. The […]

Nyheim Hines Draws Five Targets In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines caught four of five passes for 22 yards and rushed once for a two-yard carry during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. Hines is being phased out of the running game but sees anywhere from two to eight targets per game, making him a low-end […]

Jaret Patterson Leads Washington Backfield In Attempts

Washington Football Team running back Jaret Patterson led the team in carries with 11 and turned it into 46 yards in the 17-10 loss to the Denver Broncos. He could be name to monitor moving forward, but fantasy managers shouldn't be in a frenzy to add him just yet. If he continues to have a […]

Teddy Bridgewater Has Underwhelming Game Against Washington

Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater failed to take advantage of a Washington Football Team defense that had been very generous to opposing QBs for much of the season. Bridgewater completed just 19 of his 26 passing attempts for 213 yards and one touchdown in the 17-10 victory in Week 8. The good news is that […]

J.D. McKissic Leads Washington In Receiving In Week 8

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic led the team in receptions and receiving yards on Sunday, posting eight receptions for 83 yards and also adding three carries for 10 yards. McKissic is playing his way into weekly flex consideration with his large role in the passing game, especially considering he has led the team […]

Taylor Heinicke Struggles In Week 8

Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke completed 25-of-39 passes for 272 yards and one touchdown while adding two interceptions in the 17-10 loss to the Denver Broncos. Heinicke couldn't take advantage of a struggling defense, as the Washington offense struggled to get into a rhythm in this game. Moving forward, Heinicke is hard to trust […]

Terry McLaurin Quiet In Week 8

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin had a rough game on Sunday as he finished with just three catches for 23 yards on seven targets. This is an all to familiar stat line for the third-year receiver, as he has posted some duds so far this season. McLaurin has been a victim of poor […]

Jonathan Taylor Totals Over 100 Yards In Week 8 Overtime Loss

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor rushed 16 times for 70 yards and a touchdown, adding three receptions for 52 yards in a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss against the Tennessee Titans. Taylor remains the primary workhorse back for the Colts as Marlon Mack and Nyheim Hines are now largely irrelevant in the running game. […]

Antonio Gibson Has Limited Role In Week 8

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson finished with just eight carries for 34 yards and added three receptions for 20 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Denver Broncos. Gibson's limited role was almost certainly due to the lingering shin injury he has been dealing with for the past few weeks. In what was […]

Carson Wentz Throws For Three Touchdowns In Week 8 Loss

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz completed 27 of 51 pass attempts for 231 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions during a 34-31 Week 8 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans. Wentz found Michael Pittman Jr. for a pair of scores and linked up with Jack Doyle for his third touchdown on a whopping 51 pass […]

Jared Cook Doesn't Do Much In Week 8

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Jared Cook was targeted five in times in a Week 8 loss versus the New England Patriots. The veteran was only able to haul in two of those targets for 25 yards. In his debut season for the Chargers, Cook has been putting up solid numbers, but has been a […]

Jarvis Landry Leads Cleveland In Receiving In Week 8

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry caught five of 10 targets for 65 yards in a 15-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Landry led the team in receiving, it was not all positive for the veteran receiver, who lost a costly fumble during the fourth quarter and also failed to catch at least two […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Catches One Ball In Week 8

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. caught his lone target for a six-yard gain in a 15-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8. Beckham's lone look came early in the first quarter and he was barely heard from again, although he did draw a deep pass down the seam that he was […]

Josh Palmer Records First Touchdown In Week 8

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Josh Palmer recorded his first touchdown of the season in a Week 8 loss versus the New England Patriots. It was his only target of the game and went for 24 yards. After drawing plenty of hype during the preseason and training camp, Palmer hasn't seen too much action […]

D'Ernest Johnson Sees Five Touches In Week 8

Cleveland Browns running back D'Ernest Johnson carried the ball four times for 22 yards and a touchdown while adding a seven-yard catch in a 15-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8. Even with starting running back Nick Chubb returning from a two-game absence, Johnson stayed marginally involved in the Cleveland offense, out-targeting Chubb […]

Charlie Woerner Draws Two Targets In Week 8 Win

San Francisco 49ers tight end Charlie Woerner caught one of two targets for seven yards in a 33-22 Week 8 win over the Chicago Bears. With George Kittle ruled out for the season and Ross Dwelley getting moved to second on the team's depth chart, Woerner was the de facto TE1 on Sunday but barely […]

Nick Chubb Rushes For 61 Scoreless Yards In Week 8

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb carried the ball 16 times for 61 yards and added an eight-yard reception in a 15-10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8. Chubb turned in a quiet performance after missing the previous two games with a calf injury, but he fortunately appeared to emerge from the contest […]
