Blake Jarwin Not Much of a Fantasy Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin made a few courageous people happy in Week 1 by scoring a touchdown, but he is not expected to be much of a consistent fantasy contributor going forward. Jarwin played behind Jason Witten, who had a very "Jason Witten" game in Week 1. Jarwin was occasionally mixed in as […]

Jason Witten Has Another Low-Ceiling Week Ahead

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten will be a low-ceiling TE2 option in Week 2. Much like he's been most of his career, Witten was able to catch short passes and fall down in Week 1. One of those short passes just happened to be a touchdown, giving Witten some fantasy relevance in the first […]

Randall Cobb Just a Depth Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is just a depth option in a Week 2 matchup against Washington. Cobb surprised in Week 1, gaining 69 yards and scoring a touchdown, but Week 2 should be dominated by Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup, and Ezekiel Elliott. Cobb is an injury to a Cowboys wide receiver away from […]

Michael Gallup Should Have a Solid Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup should have a solid Week 2 but will likely take a back seat to Amari Cooper. Gallup had a huge game in Week 1, catching seven passes for 158 yards, but Week 2 looks like a game for Cooper to shine. Gallup will still be there as the second […]

Amari Cooper Looking at Another WR1 Week in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is a solidly ranked WR1 again for Week 2. Traveling to Washington, Cooper should have no trouble piling up fantasy points on the road. The Washington defense was burned by Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson in Week 1 and Cooper should be similarly able to get open down the […]

Tony Pollard Just a Backup in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is just a backup for Week 2 and should not be in any starting lineups. Pollard got 13 carries in Week 1, tying with Ezekiel Elliott for the team lead, but could only gain 24 yards. With Ezekiel Elliott now expected to play his full workload, Pollard will […]

Ezekiel Elliott One of the Top Options for Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is one of the best running back options in fantasy lineups for Week 2. Elliott only got 13 carries in Week 1, but it was mostly due to the Cowboys being in control throughout the second half, allowing them to scale back Elliott's work. With Week 1 and a […]

Dak Prescott a Strong QB1 Option in Week 2

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a strong QB1 option for a Week 2 matchup on the road against Washington. Prescott was great in new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's revamped offense in Week 1. He threw for 405 yards and four touchdowns and the Cowboys offense had no trouble moving the ball. Taking on a […]

Eagles Defense Could Struggle in Week 2

The Philadelphia Eagles Defense could disappoint in Week 2 and is not a highly recommended unit. The Eagles secondary allowed the Washington offense led by rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin and "Literally Case Keenum" quarterback Case Keenum to burn them for 380 yards in Week 1. This week, they travel to Atlanta to take on […]

Jake Elliott is a Solid Kicking Option in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is a solid option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. The Eagles take on the Atlanta Falcons in what should be at least somewhat of a shootout, so Elliott will likely have plenty of kicking opportunities. He only had one field goal attempt in Week 1, but pushed three extra points […]

Dallas Goedert Only an Option in Deep Leagues for Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is only a middling starting option in two-tight end leagues for Week 2. The Atlanta Falcons Defense does few things well, but one of those things is defending opposing tight ends. Mix that with the fact that Goedert was only targeted three times in Week 1 and you have […]

Zach Ertz a Strong Option in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is a top-three option again in Week 2. Despite taking on an Atlanta Falcons Defense that actually limits opposing tight ends fairly well, Ertz is matchup-proof and should easily put up TE1 numbers. In an ascendant offense that finally has a deep threat to spread out the defense in […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Not a Fantasy Option Yet

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside showed in Week 1 that he's not quite a fantasy option yet this season. The rookie played just five offensive snaps in Week 1 and didn't draw a target. Based on preseason comments from head coach Doug Pederson, Arcega-Whiteside was expected to have a bit more of a […]

Nelson Agholor Not a Fantasy Option in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is not a fantasy option for Week 2. Despite a matchup that should result in plenty of points for the Eagles, Agholor is unlikely to play a large role. With the Eagles showing a strong preference for two-tight end sets with both Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert on the […]

DeSean Jackson Could Have Another Strong Outing in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson had an excellent Week 1 and could have another solid game in Week 2. Jackson matches up well with the Atlanta Falcons pass defense and showed in Week 1 that he still definitely has "it". With Alshon Jeffery and Zach Ertz commanding attention in the short and middle depths […]

Alshon Jeffery a Solid Choice Again in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery is a solid fantasy wide receiver option again for Week 2. Facing off against a less-than-stellar Atlanta Falcons passing defense, Jeffery should make some noise again as he did in Week 1. Jeffery scored two touchdowns against Washington, hauling down a touchdown pass and recording a rushing touchdown on […]

Corey Clement Not a Fantasy Option for Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement is not a startable fantasy player in Week 2. Even though the Eagles aren't expected to have any trouble on offense against the Atlanta Falcons, Clement is very unlikely to make a significant impact. Clement did not record an offensive statistic in Week 1 and was only on the […]

Darren Sproles Is a Risky Week 2 Fantasy Running Back

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles, currently leading the team in rushing, is a risky starter in Week 2 lineups. Despite a good matchup against a weak Atlanta Falcons Defense and a solid performance in Week 1, Sproles is not expected to usually play quite as big a role as he did in the win […]

Jordan Howard Not a Safe Option in Week 2 Lineups

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard is a low-floor option for Week 2. Howard saw the fewest touches in the Eagles backfield in Week 1, and wasn't consistently used for short yardage work either. Still, he did look decent and perhaps earned a few more touches going forward. Looking like a touchdown-dependent option, Howard won't […]

Miles Sanders Is An Unexciting Week 2 Fantasy Option

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders is an OK but mostly unexciting option for Week 2. Shaping up to be somewhere on the RB2/3 border, Sanders had plenty of chances in Week 1 but didn't do much with them. He was thoroughly outplayed by veteran Darren Sproles, and even Jordan Howard showed a bit […]

Carson Wentz a Top-Five Option in Week 2

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is a top-five quarterback option in Week 2 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons Defense poses no threat to Wentz, who made use of his new receiving weapon, DeSean Jackson, in Week 1. Wentz and Jackson connected for two long touchdowns and the duo are a threat to do that […]

Corey Clement Doesn't Log an Offensive Stat in Week 1

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement did not log an offensive stat in a Week 1 victory over Washington. Darren Sproles and Miles Sanders led the Eagles backfield, with Jordan Howard mixing in as well, but Clement did not get his hands on the ball at all. Clement was nursing a knee injury in the […]

Cowboys Defense Has OK Debut in Week 1

The Dallas Cowboys Defense was good enough in a Week 1 win over the New York Giants. The Cowboys allowed 17 points, recording an interception and a sack. They did force three fumbles and recovered two of them. They were looking at only allowing 10 points in this one until Wayne Gallman ran in a […]

Brett Maher Kicks Five Extra Points in Week 1

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher made all five of his extra points in a Week 1 victory over the New York Giants. Maher didn't get a chance to kick a field goal, but was perfect in his extra point opportunities. A solid kicker in an ascendant offense, Maher makes for a strong option in all […]

Jason Witten Scores a Touchdown in His Return to the Field

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten scored a touchdown in his return to an NFL field. The veteran former broadcaster caught three passes, gaining 15 yards total. His touchdown came on a four-yard strike from Dak Prescott in second quarter. Witten did what Witten has always done, which is basically to catch anything that comes […]

Blake Jarwin Scores a Touchdown in a Week 1 Win

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin scored a touchdown in a Week 1 victory over the New York Giants. Jarwin caught three passes, gaining 39 yards. His touchdown came on a first quarter 28-yard pass from Dak Prescott and opened up the scoring for the Dallas offense. Jarwin will split time with veteran Jason Witten […]

Randall Cobb Scores a Touchdown in His First Cowboys Game

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb scored a touchdown in his first game as a Cowboy. Cobb caught four passes, gaining 69 yards. His score came on a 25-yard pass from Dak Prescott. Cobb was a distant third in the passing game pecking order to Michael Gallup and Amari Cooper, but an improved Cowboys offense […]

Amari Cooper Catches a Touchdown and Gains Over 100 Yards

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper had a strong opening to the season in Week 1, catching six passes for 106 yards and a touchdown. Cooper's touchdown catch was a 21-yard pass from Dak Prescott. Cooper and Michael Gallup handled things in the Cowboys passing game and should be a solid duo going forward. The […]

Michael Gallup Has a Huge Game in a Week 1 Victory

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup was excellent in a Week 1 win over the New York Giants. Gallup led the Cowboys in both receptions and yards, with seven catches for 158 yards. He wasn't able to come down with a touchdown, but it was still an excellent performance regardless. Amari Cooper played well too, […]

Tony Pollard Gets 13 Carries in His NFL Debut

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard received 13 carries in his first NFL game in Week 1. He wasn't able to find much room though, averaging just 1.8 yards per carry and totaling 24 yards on the ground. Pollard was ticketed for a much bigger role when starter Ezekiel Elliott was involved in a […]
