Jason Witten Leads the Cowboys in Receiving in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten led the Cowboys in receiving in Week 4, catching four passes for 50 yards. Witten was mostly solid in this one, but lost a costly fumble after getting the ball punched out of his hands. Witten will continue to be heavily involved, but is a low-upside, touchdown-dependent option in […]

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard did not record an offensive stat in a Week 4 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Cowboys gave running back Ezekiel Elliott 18 carries, and he picked up just 35 yards against a tough Saints Defense. Pollard was able to score a touchdown and gain over 100 yards […]

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott scored a touchdown but didn't do much else in a Week 4 loss against the New Orleans Saints. Elliott ran the ball 18 times for just 35 yards. His touchdown came on a third quarter plunge from the one-yard line. He was able to add 30 yards on six […]

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was held in check by the Saints Defense in Week 4. He ended up completing 22 of his 33 passes for 223 yards. He didn't throw a touchdown but did throw an interception. His pick was on a game-ending deep ball, so it wasn't really on him. Still, it was […]

Well, it's over. Baseball's regular season comes to a close this weekend, and with it most fantasy leagues will wrap up as well. Daily fantasy will go strong into the postseason, but most standard leagues will be looking toward next season, especially dynasty and keeper leagues. While the vast majority of fantasy players play in […]

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense struggled in Week 4, allowing 27 points to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. The Eagles recorded just one sack and one interception in this one, but let Rodgers throw for 422 yards. With an already decimated secondary that saw Avonte Maddox leave on a stretcher, the Eagles defense won't […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJake Elliott Kicks Four Extra Points in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott was perfect in Week 4, hitting all four of his extra-point attempts. The Eagles did not need him for a field-goal try in this one, so despite doing everything he was asked, Elliott ended up with a less-than-stellar fantasy performance. There are certainly better days ahead for Elliott, but Thursday […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoNelson Agholor Does Absolutely Nothing in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor did absolutely nothing on the field of play on Thursday night. Agholor was not even targeted in the passing game after scoring a touchdown and gaining over 100 yards last week. Agholor made some ugly drops despite his big game in Week 3, likely leading many fantasy owners to […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoMack Hollins Catches Only One Pass in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins made just one catch in Week 4, gaining 13 yards. Hollins played a bigger role in this one due to DeSean Jackson (abdomen) missing the game, but the Eagles offense mostly went through the running game. Hollins will take a back seat in Week 5 assuming Jackson returns to […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Alshon Jeffery scored a touchdown in Week 4. Jeffery missed Week 3 with a calf injury and didn't look fully healthy in this one, but he made three catches, gaining 38 yards. His touchdown came on a six-yard end zone pass from Carson Wentz in the second quarter. With plenty of […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert scored a touchdown in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. Goedert made two catches, gaining 16 yards. His score came on a short three-yard strike from Carson Wentz. Goedert is a very talented receiver, but he won't have consistent enough targets unless something happens to Zach Ertz. Goedert […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoZach Ertz Makes Seven Catches in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz made seven catches in Week 4, gaining 65 yards. Ertz led the team in catches by a wide margin, but was unable to come down with a touchdown. That's two straight somewhat pedestrian efforts from Ertz, but his usage shows that he's due for a breakout performance very soon.
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDarren Sproles Gets One Carry in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles received just one carry in Week 4, gaining four yards. He didn't make a catch in the passing game. Sproles has become almost exclusively a special teams player, and can be dropped in most standard formats. He could develop some value if another Eagles running back gets hurt, but […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoMiles Sanders Runs Well But Gets Vultured in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders ran the ball well in Week 4, but watched Jordan Howard score three touchdowns. Sanders ran the ball 11 times for 72 scoreless yards. He did not make a catch in the passing game. Sanders ran well when given the chance, but Howard got seven more touches and […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJordan Howard Scores Three Times in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard found the end zone three times on Thursday night. He ran the ball 15 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns, adding three catches for 28 more yards and another touchdown. Howard significantly outplayed Miles Sanders and may end up getting more run going forward. He ran the ball […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoCarson Wentz Throws Three Touchdowns in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz tossed three touchdowns on Thursday night. Otherwise, he wasn't great. He completed 16 of his 27 pass attempts for just 160 yards. Wentz's first touchdown pass was a six-yard strike to Alshon Jeffery. His second was a three-yard toss to Dallas Goedert, and his final score came on a 20-yard […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoCowboys Defense An OK Option In Week 4
The Dallas Cowboys Defense is an OK play in Week 4, although they should be downgraded from their must-start status of previous weeks. The Cowboys will face off against a solid New Orleans Saints offense (even without Drew Brees) on the road for Sunday Night Football. It's expected to be a close game, but it […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoBrett Maher Kicking Indoors in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is on the road with his teammates in Week 4, but he'll still get to kick indoors. Taking on the Saints on Sunday Night Football, Maher should be involved in what is expected to be a close game. He's one of the more stable kicking options in fantasy and can […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoBlake Jarwin Not a Starting Option in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is not a recommended fantasy starter in any format in Week 4. The Cowboys will be battling against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday Night Football, and the Saints have been solid at defending opposing tight ends so far this season. With Jason Witten getting most of the snaps […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJason Witten Has a Tough Matchup in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten has been solid so far this season, but is looking at a tough matchup on Sunday Night Football against the New Orleans Saints in Week 4. As he has been for most of his career, Witten's been boosted by touchdowns and would be putting in very low-floor weeks without […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDevin Smith a Risky High-Ceiling Play in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Devin Smith is a low-floor, high-ceiling play in Week 4. The Cowboys travel to New Orleans to take on the Saints in what should be a close game. With Michael Gallup (knee) out again, Smith should serve as the deep threat/seam stretcher and could come down with another long touchdown. Playing […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoRandall Cobb Not a Reliable Option for Week 4
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is not a reliable fantasy option in a Week 4 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Cobb could have made some noise in Week 3 but he had a 74-yard score called back after a penalty. Still, he ended up with just two catches on four total targets even […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoAmari Cooper Should Have Another WR1 Week
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is looking like a WR1 again for Week 4. The Cowboys will travel to New Orleans to take on the Saints on Sunday Night Football, and Cooper should once again be the focal point of the passing game. With Michael Gallup (knee) set to miss another game, Cooper should […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoTony Pollard Likely to Make Less Noise in Week 4
Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard will likely step back into his limited role as Ezekiel Elliott's backup in Week 4. Pollard scored a touchdown and ran for over 100 yards in Week 3, but that was mostly in garbage time against a useless Miami Dolphins team. With Week 4 taking the Cowboys to […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoEzekiel Elliott One of the Top Week 4 Running Backs
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is one of the top options at the position in Week 4. Traveling to New Orleans to take on the Saints on Sunday Night Football, "Zeke" should be fully unleashed for the first time this season. He simply wasn't needed at the end of a laugher against the Miami […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDak Prescott a Strong QB1 for Week 4
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a strong QB1 choice for a Week 4 Sunday Night Football matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Prescott has thrived in new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's offensive scheme and should continue to play well indoors on Sunday evening. He's in the top half of QB1 rankings on most lists […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoEagles Defense Just a Middling Option in Week 4
The Philadelphia Eagles Defense is not an exciting unit for Week 4. Taking on the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football, the Eagles defense is likely to turn in a "good enough" performance, but most fantasy leagues will have higher upside options on the waiver wire. The Eagles defense came into the season expected […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoJake Elliott a Solid Kicking Option in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is a solid kicking option in Week 4. With the Eagles taking on the strong defense of the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football, Elliott could be needed for field goal attempts if offensive drives stall out. He's made all of his field goal tries so far this season […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoDallas Goedert Just a Desperation Play in Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is expected to play in Week 4, but won't be more than a desperation option in most standard formats. Even in two-TE leagues, Goedert is a risky play. Taking on a Green Bay Packers Defense that defends well against opposing tight ends, Goedert will take his customary backseat to […]
David A Marcillo 5 years agoZach Ertz A Top Tight End In Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is an easy TE1 option in Week 4, as always. Ertz was double-covered for most of Week 3 and was still able to catch four passes for 64 yards. With Alshon Jeffery (calf) back in the lineup and likely to draw at least some attention away from Ertz, Ertz […]
