J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not a Week 6 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is not a starting fantasy option in Week 6. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) possibly rejoining the team, Arcega-Whiteside will be hard pressed to find much playing time. Even with Jackson out, the rookie was unable to do much with the opportunity, playing firmly behind career special teamer Mack […]

Mack Hollins Not a Strong Choice in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 6. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) nearing a return, Hollins' days in three-wide sets are coming to an end. Even if Jackson doesn't play on Sunday though, Hollins will have very limited fantasy value against a difficult Minnesota Vikings Defense. Hollins only […]

DeSean Jackson Could Return in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson (abdomen) has a chance to return in Week 6. Jackson has missed three games due to injury, but when asked if Jackson would be on the field in Minnesota, coach Doug Pederson said, "We'll see. He's getting close." Jackson will likely draw a questionable tag and could be a […]

Nelson Agholor Cannot Be Trusted in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor cannot be relied on as a fantasy option in Week 6. Agholor has just one catch total in his past two games despite catching 16 in the two before that. He is way too volatile with drops, fumbles, and overall inconsistency to trust in a fantasy lineup. Combine all […]

Alshon Jeffery Could Have a Tough Time in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery has a difficult matchup on tap in Week 6. Hitting the road to face a tough Minnesota Vikings Defense, Jeffery is on the WR2/3 border this week. Usually a solid WR2 with some upside, the tough matchup knocks him down a bit. If DeSean Jackson (abdomen) were to return, […]

Darren Sproles Not a Week 6 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles has become an afterthought in the Eagles backfield and is not a starting option in any format in Week 6. After getting 12 touches in Week 1, Sproles has totaled just eight touches since then. He's almost exclusively on special teams at this point and would only develop fantasy […]

Miles Sanders Falling Into the RB3 Range in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders has taken a back seat to Jordan Howard in the Eagles backfield. Combine that with a trip to Minnesota to face a strong Vikings Defense, and Sanders is a risky RB3 play, at best, in Week 6. Howard is taking all of the scoring opportunities and Sanders has […]

Jordan Howard Faces a Challenge in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard has taken over the Eagles backfield but will face a tough challenge in Week 6. With the Eagles on the road to take on the Minnesota Vikings, Howard will be a solid RB2, but with limited upside thanks to the Vikings Defense. Howard has five touchdowns in his last […]

Carson Wentz Faces a Tough Minnesota Team in Week 6

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz will face off against a tough Minnesota Vikings Defense in Week 6. Wentz underwhelmed in Week 5 mostly because the running game was working so well that he wasn't needed. Still, his fantasy owners ended up with just one touchdown and 189 yards on just 17 completed passes. Wentz will […]

Cowboys Defense Struggles in Week 5

The Dallas Cowboys Defense struggled against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in Week 5. They coughed up 34 points and didn't record any interceptions or force any fumbles. The defense sacked Aaron Rodgers only two times in a game the Packers had mostly under control from the opening kickoff. It was a rough […]

Brett Maher Misses Two Field Goals in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher missed two field goal attempts in a Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Maher made all three of his extra points and one field goal, but missed field goal tries from 54 and 33 yards. It was an uncharacteristically inaccurate day for Maher, who has otherwise been one […]

Blake Jarwin Doesn't Record a Statistic in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin wasn't targeted in a Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Starting tight end Jason Witten only caught three passes in a game where wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup each saw 14 targets. Jarwin could have some sudden value if Witten were forced to miss time, […]

Jason Witten Comes Down With Three Passes in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten caught three passes in Week 5, gaining 29 yards. Witten was targeted four times in a game where Dak Prescott had to throw 44 times. With wide receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup gobbling up 14 targets each, there wasn't much else to go around. Witten did his thing […]

Randall Cobb Catches Three Passes in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb caught three passes against his former team, the Green Bay Packers, in Week 5. Cobb's three catches gained him 53 yards. He was targeted six times and with Michael Gallup (knee) back on the field, Cobb returned to a complementary slot role. He's still a solid NFL player, but […]

Michael Gallup Returns With a Huge Game in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup, returning from a two-game absence after knee surgery, had an excellent game in Week 5. He caught seven passes, gaining 113 yards and scoring a touchdown. Gallup's touchdown came at the end of the third quarter and was on a 40-yard pass from Dak Prescott. Gallup was heavily involved […]

Amari Cooper Collects 226 Yards in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper went wild in Week 5, catching 11 passes for 226 yards and a touchdown. Cooper was targeted 14 times in a game where Dak Prescott was forced to throw 44 times. Cooper made the most of his chances, including coming down with a 53-yard touchdown about halfway through the […]

Tony Pollard Carries the Ball Four Times in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard took four carries in Week 5, gaining 19 yards. Ezekiel Elliott only got 12 carries in a game where the Cowboys were forced to rely on the passing game since they were playing from behind throughout. Pollard's four touches is about what can be expected of him weekly […]

Ezekiel Elliott Finds the End Zone in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott scored a touchdown in Week 5. He ran the ball 12 times, gaining 62 yards. He was targeted four times in the passing game, catching two for 29 more yards. Elliott's score was a two-yard run in the fourth quarter. With the Cowboys playing from far behind all afternoon, […]

Dak Prescott Piles Up Yards in Week 5

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had some bright spots and a few low spots in Week 5. He ended up completing 27 of his 44 pass attempts, gaining 463 yards. He threw two touchdowns but also three interceptions. Prescott added four runs for another 27 yards on the ground. With the Cowboys trailing for most […]

Eagles Defense Dominates in Week 5

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense was absolutely dominant in Week 5, embarrassing the New York Jets on the way to a 31-6 victory. The Eagle defense allowed just one touchdown (which was followed up by a failed two-point attempt). They made two interceptions, forced two fumbles, and recorded an astonishing 10 sacks. This could end up […]

Jake Elliott Makes a Field Goal and Four Extra Points in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made every kick asked of him in Week 5. He connected on all four of his extra point attempts and also knocked a 28-yard field goal through the uprights. Elliott has been very consistent this season, but the Eagles just haven't had a ton of field goal tries so far. […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not Targeted in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside was not targeted in an Eagles Week 5 win. Even with DeSean Jackson (abdomen) out, Arcega-Whiteside did not factor into the game whatsoever. Even Mack Hollins, who played ahead of Arcega-Whiteside, only saw one target. Arcega-Whiteside has good upside, but he's not close to being a starting option […]

Mack Hollins Makes No Catches in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins did not come up with his only target in the passing game in Week 5. Hollins was forced into action in three-wide sets with DeSean Jackson (abdomen) missing another game. Alshon Jeffery and Zach Ertz took control of the few passes completed by Carson Wentz in this one, leaving […]

Nelson Agholor Catches a Pass and Fumbles in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor caught just one pass in Week 5, gaining 20 yards then fumbling the ball. Agholor was coming off a zero-catch game in Week 4 and didn't really do any better in Week 5. With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) expected back soon, Agholor could be sliding completely off the fantasy radar. […]

Alshon Jeffery Catches Six Passes in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery led the Eagles with six catches in Week 5, gaining 52 yards. The Eagles didn't need to throw much, with quarterback Carson Wentz completing just 17 passes. Jeffery did well with the balls thrown to him, and he should have bigger games when the Eagles actually need to make […]

Dallas Goedert Catches Just One Pass in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught just one pass in Week 5, gaining 11 yards. Goedert played way behind starter Zach Ertz, and while he has the talent to be a solid tight end in fantasy, he won't see nearly enough targets unless Ertz misses time. Goedert is a wait-and-see fantasy asset, but not […]

Zach Ertz Catches a Touchdown in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught the only offensive touchdown for the Eagles in Week 5. He ended up with five catches for 57 yards on the day. His touchdown was an 11-yard strike from Carson Wentz in the second quarter. Ertz was solid in this one, but he hasn't seen the monster-share of […]

Darren Sproles Still Not a Factor in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles still didn't have a role on offense in Week 5. He got three carries, gaining just four yards total. He did not make a catch in the passing game. Sproles hasn't done anything of note on offense since Week 1, and can be dropped in most formats at this […]

Miles Sanders Does Nothing on the Ground in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders wasn't able to get anything going on the ground in Week 5. He ran the ball nine times and gained just 15 yards. He was able to add four catches, gaining 49 yards that way. Sanders was useless in the running game, getting completely outplayed by Jordan Howard, […]

Jordan Howard Leads the Eagles Backfield Again in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard led the Eagles backfield again in Week 5 and seems to have taken over as the head of the running back committee. Howard ran the ball 13 times, gaining 62 yards and scoring a one-yard touchdown in the first quarter. Howard and rookie Miles Sanders actually tied with 13 […]
