Corey Davis Posts Dud In Week 2

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis had a solid team debut, but couldn't follow it up in Week 2. Davis gave a disappointing performance, but it wasn't all his fault. Quarterback Zach Wilson struggled heavily, so no one on the Jets offense did well here. Davis hauled in two of his five targets for […]

Cowboys Defense Performs Decently In Week 2

The Dallas Cowboys defense performed surprisingly well in a Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The Dallas defensive unit allowed 17 points while recording two sacks and two interceptions.

Eagles Defense Doesn't Do Much In Week 2

The Philadelphia Eagles defense did not do much in a Week 2 loss against the San Francisco 49ers.

Cedrick Wilson Makes Two Catches In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson, filling in for an injured Michael Gallup (ankle), made two catches for 20 yards in a Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson kept his perfect season going during the loss to Chicago on Sunday.

Blake Jarwin Secures Three Catches In Week 2

Tony Pollard Clearly The Best Dallas Back In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard was clearly the best back in a Cowboys uniform in a Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Dak Prescott Held In Check In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was mostly held in check by the Los Angeles Chargers defense in Week 2.
