Eagles Defense A Decent Option In Week 5

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is a decent fantasy option in Week 5 lineups. The Eagles defense excelled in Week 4, sacking the quarterback five times, recovering a fumble, intercepting two passes, and scoring a touchdown. They'd come into the game without forcing any turnovers for the season. Going against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 5, […]

Jake Elliott Just OK As A Week 5 Kicker

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is just OK as a kicking option in fantasy lineups in Week 5. Elliott has been solid and consistent this season, but the Eagles offense just isn't giving him enough chances to score points. Most fantasy leagues will have higher-upside options available on the waiver wire. Elliott has made seven […]

Zach Ertz Has A Tough Matchup In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz has a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 5. His toughest matchup, however, may be having to play in the Eagles offense. Ertz caught four passes last week, gaining just nine yards total despite playing without Dallas Goedert (ankle). While it's possible Ertz's best days are behind […]

DeSean Jackson Likely Too Risky To Start In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (hamstring) returned to practice on Wednesday and will likely be listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jackson will be way too risky to start in most formats even if he gets the go-ahead from the Eagles medical team. The Eagles passing game has been struggling […]

Alshon Jeffery Could Make His 2020 Debut In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (foot) is questionable for Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jeffery was questionable for Week 4 as well before ultimately being held out, but he seems to have a better chance to suit up this week. With the Eagles desperate for any warm bodies that can catch footballs, Jeffery […]

John Hightower Not An Exciting Week 5 Choice

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver John Hightower doesn't make for an exciting Week 5 fantasy option. Despite a lack of bodies in the Eagles wide receiving room, Hightower only came up with two catches last week. While he may be slightly more involved this week, the Eagles face a tough Steelers pass rush in a […]

Greg Ward A Deep League Option Only In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward is only a fantasy option in very deep leagues for Week 5. The Eagles are facing off against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who wreak havoc on opposing quarterbacks. Carson Wentz has been struggling regardless of his opponents, so this one could get ugly pretty quickly. Ward should be heavily targeted, […]

Boston Scott Not A Week 5 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott is not a fantasy option in a Week 5 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Scott only touched the ball twice on offense in the win against the San Francisco 49ers, and likely won't be that much more involved in Week 5 either. Scott is playing far behind starter Miles […]

Miles Sanders Has A Tough Week 5 Matchup

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders has a tough matchup in a Week 5 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Sanders firstly has to deal with a struggling Eagles offense all around him, but then he's also staring at a very strong running defense going against him. Sanders is usually involved in the passing game, so […]

Carson Wentz Not A Strong Option In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz was just a tiny bit better in Week 4 but still hasn't shown enough to be a viable starting option in standard leagues for Week 5 lineups. The Steelers Defense has held 15 of the last 16 opposing quarterbacks to fewer than 7.6 yards per attempt, making Wentz's floor perhaps […]

Yimi Garcia Blows Game 1

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Yimi Garcia blew the game (with an assist from manager Don Mattingly) in Game 1 of the National League Division Series. Garcia got just one out, allowing three runs on three hits. He also allowed two inherited runners to score. Starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara was inexplicably allowed to start the seventh […]

Sandy Alcantara Allows Five Runs In Game 1

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara pitched extremely well for the first six innings of Tuesday's first game of the National League Division Series. Alcantara was sent back in for the seventh inning to face the Braves order for the fourth time, an unbelievably bad move by manager Don Mattingly in a year full of […]

Sixto Sanchez Gets Game 3 Of The NLDS

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez will get the start for Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves. Sanchez got off to an excellent start in Game 2 of the Wild Card Series against the Chicago Cubs before getting into a little trouble in the fifth inning. He'll follow […]

Pablo Lopez Will Start Game 2 Of The NLDS

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez will take the ball for Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves. Sandy Alcantara will start Game 1 and Sixto Sanchez will get the Game 3 start. Lopez was scheduled to pitch Game 3 of the Wild Card Series against the Chicago Cubs, but […]

Sandy Alcantara Will Start Game 1 Of The NLDS

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara has been named the starter for Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Atlanta Braves. Alcantara was great in his first start of the playoffs, going 6 2/3 innings while allowing just one run to the Chicago Cubs. Pablo Lopez will follow Alcantara in Game 2, […]

Eagles Defense Shines In Week 4 Win

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense played very well in Week 4, likely helping the few fantasy teams that started them to a victory. The Eagles defense allowed 20 points to the San Francisco 49ers, but recorded five sacks, two interceptions, a fumble recovery, and a touchdown. That was good for 18 fantasy points in standard scoring. […]

Jake Elliott Kicks A Field Goal And Two Extra Points In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made his only field goal attempt and both of his extra point tries in a Week 4 win against the San Francisco 49ers. Elliott continues to be a consistent but low-volume kicker, as the Eagles offense is still not able to do a lot. Elliott's Week 4 field goal came […]

Zach Ertz Only Gains Nine Yards In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, playing in his first full game of 2020 without Dallas Goedert (ankle) to share targets with...caught four passes for just nine yards total. Ertz saw five targets thrown his way but was just completely erased by the San Francisco 49ers in what was one of the biggest duds in […]

John Hightower Catches Two Passes In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver John Hightower was targeted twice in Week 4, catching both passes for 22 yards. There was some thought that Hightower would be more involved since essentially everyone else that can catch passes on the Eagles roster was hurt, but he still ended up only seeing two balls thrown his way. […]

Richard Rodgers Catches Three Passes In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Richard Rodgers came down with three catches in a Week 4 win, gaining 35 yards. Rodgers was targeted four times in the first full Eagles game since Dallas Goedert went down with an ankle injury. Rodgers will be more involved in the passing game going forward, but he doesn't have anywhere […]

Greg Ward Catches Four Passes In Week 4 Win

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward led the Eagles in targets with seven in a Week 4 win over the San Francisco 49ers. He caught four of those passes, gaining 38 yards. It was a forgettable performance from Ward, but he should maintain some PPR value as long as he keeps getting peppered by targets […]

Travis Fulgham Scores In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Travis Fulgham caught two passes in a Week 4 win, gaining 57 yards and scoring a touchdown. It was his first NFL touchdown and his first two catches, after being the 184th overall pick of the 2019 draft out of Old Dominion and missing the three targets thrown his way last […]

Boston Scott Gains One Yard Total In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott was barely in the box score after a Week 4 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Scott ran the ball twice, gaining just one yard, and did not make any catches in the passing game. Starter Miles Sanders wasn't great in this game, but he was clearly the key […]

Miles Sanders Totals 76 Yards In Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders rushed 13 times, gaining 46 yards in a Week 4 win over the San Francisco 49ers. He added two catches for 30 more yards. Sanders saw four targets in the passing game. Sanders came in looking like the only viable fantasy starter on the Eagles roster, and he disappointed […]

Carson Wentz Manages The Eagles To Their First Win

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz game managed his way to the first Eagles win of 2020 in Week 4. Wentz attempted 28 passes, completing 18 of them for 193 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Wentz made some throws in this one that looked like old Carson Wentz, but there was a lot of 2020 […]

Cowboys Defense Gets Blown Up Again In Week 4

The Dallas Cowboys Defense struggled once again in a Week 4 loss to the Cleveland Browns. The Cowboys allowed 49 points and recorded just two sacks with no interceptions and no fumble recoveries. In standard defensive scoring, that was good for a -2 score. Based on the first three weeks of the season, most fantasy […]

Greg Zuerlein Makes Just Two Extra Points In Week 4

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein made just two extra points in a Week 4 loss to the Cleveland Browns. The Cowboys offense did plenty of damage in this game, but they went for two-point conversions several times, and were down by enough to not make field goals realistic options. Zuerlein was a "perfect" two-for-two on […]

Michael Gallup Catches Two Passes In Week 4 Loss

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup only caught two passes in a Week 4 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Gallup was targeted five times, coming down with the two for 29 scoreless yards. Gallup was sixth on the team in targets and has now had two games of two catches and one of three catches […]

Cedrick Wilson Makes Three Catches In Week 4

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson made three catches in Week 4, gaining 34 scoreless yards. He was targeted six times on a day Dak Prescott made 58 pass attempts. Wilson was never expected to follow up Week 3's huge two-touchdown game with anything even close to that, but any fantasy managers who crossed their […]

Noah Brown Sees Four Targets And Makes Four Catches

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Noah Brown was targeted four times in the Week 4 loss, making all four catches for 43 yards. Dak Prescott threw the ball 58 times, completing passes to nine different receivers. Brown is fourth at best on the receiver depth chart, and likely fifth. He is very unlikely to be fantasy […]
