Dallas Cowboys kicker Kai Forbath made all nine of his kicks in a Week 17 win over Washington. Forbath made all five of his extra point tries and kicked in field goals from 28, 47, 48, and 40 yards out. Forbath was an excellent fantasy kicker for the weeks he was on the Cowboys, and […]

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin was targeted just once in Week 17 but did not come up with a catch. Jarwin showed some flashes this season and could be a solid fantasy tight end if Jason Witten were to end up retiring before the 2020 season.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught four passes in Week 17, gaining 24 yards. He was targeted four times and caught all four balls thrown his way. Witten and head coach Jason Garrett may have seen their last Cowboys games, although Witten will likely be welcomed back if he decides to return for the […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoRandall Cobb Makes Five Catches in Week 17
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb ended the season with a five-catch, 81-yard performance in Week 17. Cobb has some bright spots this season, but was consistently a distant third on the wide receiver depth chart behind Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup. He'll be a free agent and should end up in a similar role […]

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper caught four passes in Week 17, gaining 92 yards. He ended up behind Michael Gallup for yards, catches, and targets. Accused of "disappearing" at times this season, especially in the moments when he was most needed, Cooper should still enter next season as the top wide receiver on the […]

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup caught five passes in Week 17, gaining 98 yards and scoring three touchdowns. Gallup's touchdowns came from 4, 32, and 45 yards out, all in the second half.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard ran the ball 14 times in Week 17, gaining 60 yards. He also caught a pass for a five yard gain. Pollard got a bit more play in this one with the Cowboys holding onto a large lead for most of the game. Pollard's rookie season was solid […]

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott ran the ball 18 times for 122 yards and a touchdown in a Week 17 win. Elliott also caught three passes, gaining just two yards total, but scoring a touchdown through the air as well. Elliott played well in this one, but it wasn't enough to extend the Cowboys […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDak Prescott Has a Huge Game in Week 17
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a huge Week 17 in a season-ending win. Prescott completed 23 of his 33 pass attempts for 303 yards and four touchdowns. He also ran the ball three times for 35 more yards. Prescott did everything he could this week to lead the Cowboys into the playoffs, but it […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoEagles Defense Plays Well in Week 17
The Philadelphia Eagles Defense played well in a Week 17 win over the New York Giants. They allowed just 17 points to an occasionally-explosive offense, recorded an interception, and recovered a fumble. They also sacked Giants quarterback Daniel Jones four times. They'll have a much tougher matchup in the first week of the playoffs next […]

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all six of his kicks in a Week 17 win. Elliott made two field goals, one from 31 yards out and the other from 50 yards. He also made all four of his extra point tries. Elliott will be a fine kicking option in DFS leagues on Wild Card […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Joshua Perkins caught four passes for 50 yards and a touchdown in a Week 17 win over the New York Giants. Perkins' touchdown came on a 24-yard pass from quarterback Carson Wentz near the end of the first half. He ended up with the same number of catches as Dallas Goedert and […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoGreg Ward Makes Six Catches in Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward made six catches in Week 17, gaining 43 yards. The Eagles didn't have a ton going on in the passing game in this one, making Ward's six catches the most on the team. Ward has been atop the wide receiver depth chart, but has played as much more of […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDallas Goedert Disappoints in Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was disappointing in Week 17, catching four passes for 65 yards. Widely predicted as a top-tier TE1 in fantasy lineups, Goedert did see 10 targets, but was only able to come down with the four grabs. With Zach Ertz (ribs) out and most of the Eagles wide receivers on […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoBoston Scott Scores Three Touchdowns in Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott ran the ball 19 times in Week 17, gaining 54 yards and scoring three touchdowns. He added four catches for 84 more yards.

David A Marcillo 5 years agoMiles Sanders Leaves Early With an Ankle Injury
Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders was forced to leave early in Week 17 due to an ankle injury. He had run the ball nine times for 52 yards and caught three passes but lost a yard through the air before leaving. Sanders originally returned to the game but left again in the second […]

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz managed his team to an NFC East title and a trip to the playoffs. Wentz completed 23 of his 40 pass attempts for 289 yards and a touchdown. He added 15 yards on the ground on three carries. Wentz played better than his fantasy stats showed, allowing Boston Scott to […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoCowboys Defense Could be a Strong Week 17 Option
The Dallas Cowboys Defense should be a strong option for Week 17 fantasy lineups. Facing off against Washington in a game that the Cowboys can not lose if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive, the defense should be at their best. Mix that in with the fact that Washington will be forced to […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoKai Forbath a Strong Fantasy Option in Week 17
Dallas Cowboys kicker Kai Forbath is a solid kicking option for Week 17 fantasy lineups. Forbath was the entire Cowboys offense in Week 16, kicking three field goals in a game where the Cowboys scored just nine points. He should have a few more chances to kick in Week 17 against a struggling Washington defense.
David A Marcillo 5 years agoBlake Jarwin Not a Starting Option for Week 17 Lineups
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is not a strong option for any Week 17 fantasy lineups. Jarwin has flashed a bit this season, but playing behind Jason Witten on an offense that doesn't feature the tight end position has left Jarwin with just 31 catches for 365 yards this season. Jarwin is a free […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJason Witten a Low-Upside Pick for Week 17
Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is a low-upside option for Week 17 fantasy lineups. Witten made just two catches for 14 yards in Week 16 and could be in for a similar outing this time around. The Cowboys will likely focus on the running game and their top two wide receivers. Witten always has […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoRandall Cobb Not a Strong Option in Week 17 Lineups
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is not a strong option in fantasy lineups for Week 17. Cobb caught five passes in Week 16, gaining 73 yards, but he's likely to regress this time around. With the Cowboys facing a must-win scenario, Cobb will fall well behind Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup in targets. There's […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoMichael Gallup a Solid WR2 Option for Week 17
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup should be a solid WR2 option in a Week 17 matchup against Washington. Gallup had a strong Week 16 despite the entire Cowboys offense struggling, hauling in five catches for 98 yards. He'll be needed in order for the Cowboys to keep their playoff chances alive in a must-win […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoAmari Cooper Looks to Bounce Back in Week 17
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper will look to bounce back from a rough performance in a Week 17 matchup against Washington. Cooper caught just four passes in Week 16, totaling 24 yards despite receiving a dozen targets. Cooper disappeared at the times when he was most needed, leading to the ire of many analysts […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoTony Pollard Not Worth a Start in Week 17
Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is not worth starting in fantasy lineups for Week 17. The Cowboys will be in must-win mode against Washington, and with a possibly-ailing Dak Prescott (shoulder) leading the offense, things may go through the ground game. Ezekiel Elliott will be a near every-down player, leaving Pollard to only […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoEzekiel Elliott a Top Option in Week 17 Lineups
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will be one of the top backfield options in Week 17 fantasy lineups. "Zeke" and the Cowboys will be taking on Washington in a must-win game. The Washington defense struggles against opposing running backs, and with quarterback Dak Prescott still potentially dealing with a shoulder ailment, the Cowboys offense […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDak Prescott Set For a Strong Week 17
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott struggled mightily in Week 16 but should be set up for a solid bounce-back performance against Washington in Week 17. In a game the Cowboys absolutely must win (and then hope for an Eagles loss), Prescott should be ranked as a top-five fantasy option. Coming off a scoreless 265-yard performance, […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoEagles Defense a So-So Option in Week 17
The Philadelphia Eagles Defense makes for a decent option in Week 17 against the New York Giants. The Eagles looked great against the Cowboys in Week 16, but the Giants have shown some big-play ability and will want to play their hardest to keep the division-rival Eagles out of the playoffs. It's a bit of […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJake Elliott Looks to Get Back on Track in Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will look to get back on track in Week 17 against the New York Giants. Elliott missed two field goals in Week 16 and has been hot-and-cold since starting off the season without a miss until Week 13. He should have several chances to kick in what is a win-and-in […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDallas Goedert Could Have a Huge Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert could have an enormous Week 17 against the New York Giants. Goedert caught nine passes for 91 yards and a touchdown in Week 16 with Zach Ertz going in and out of the game with a rib injury. Ertz is "truly questionable" for Week 17 with that rib injury, […]
