Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott had another excellent game in a Week 5 win over the New York Giants.

The Philadelphia Eagles defense had an excellent Week 5 in a win against the Carolina Panthers. The Eagles, who had struggled on defense most of the season, allowed only 16 points and recorded three interceptions and three sacks. It was easily the best performance of the season for the Eagles on defense, scoring 14 fantasy […]

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made two field goals and an extra point in a Week 5 victory over the Carolina Panthers. Elliott, not known for a big leg, made a 58-yarder at the end of the first half. His other field goal was a more Elliott-like 30 yard kick. It wasn't a big sample […]

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor, last season's first-round pick, continued to show nothing of value in a Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers. He was targeted five times, catching three passes for 24 yards. Besides the unexciting performance, Reagor was also seen barely trying to block on a screen play. The second-year receiver […]

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert only caught two passes in a Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers. He was targeted three times, with the two catches going for a total of 28 yards.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins was targeted three times in a Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers, making all three catches for a total of 48 yards.

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith led the team in receiving in Week 5. It was a poor passing game performance from quarterback Jalen Hurts, but Smith was able to make seven catches for 77 yards. He was targeted eight times, leading the team in targets, yards, and catches all by a healthy margin. […]

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell only recorded three touches in a Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers. Gainwell ran the ball twice, gaining 16 yards.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders had another disappointing game in Week 5 against the Carolina Panthers. Sanders ran the ball 11 times, gaining 45 scoreless yards.

David A Marcillo 3 years agoCowboys Defense Unexpectedly Fantasy Relevant
The Dallas Cowboys defense was expected to be one of the worst units in the league this season, but they've actually been quite effective, both on the field and in fantasy lineups. The Cowboys defense has been a top-12 fantasy asset in every week of the season so far, including two top-five finishes. They've gone […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoGreg Zuerlein A Week 5 Fantasy Option
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein should be a solid fantasy option most weeks as long as the Cowboys offense can keep clicking as well as they have. While "Greg the Leg" may not have quite "the leg" anymore in terms of distance, he's still a consistent, accurate kicker and hasn't missed a field goal try […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoBlake Jarwin Looks To Close The Gap In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin came into the season expected to be the primary tight end for the Cowboys, although he was expected to cede some snaps to Dalton Schultz now and then. Instead, Schultz has exploded into a TE1 while Jarwin is averaging a TE3 finish each week, making him unstartable in most […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDalton Schultz Looks To Keep Pulling Away In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz will look to keep pulling away from his competition in a Week 5 game against the New York Giants. Schultz and Blake Jarwin have been splitting routes and sharing targets this season, but it's Schultz that has seemingly developed into one of quarterback Dak Prescott's favorite targets. He's finished […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoCedrick Wilson Continues As A Touchdown-Dependent Option
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson has put up decent fantasy scores over the past two weeks, but both only happened because he found the end zone. With Wilson catching just four passes for 47 yards in Weeks 3 and 4 combined, he's only developed some fantasy relevance because he's scored two weeks in a […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoCeeDee Lamb Looks To Even Things Out In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will look to even things out in a Week 5 game against the New York Giants. Lamb has had a mercurial season so far, looking outstanding in the first two games then thoroughly pedestrian in the next two. Through the first two games of the season, Lamb had 24 […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoTony Pollard Could See A Few More Touches In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard had an enormous performance in Week 2 and has remained a solid contributor, averaging 10.5 rush attempts per game. Still, he hasn't been able to amass too many fantasy points while playing behind starter Ezekiel Elliott. With Elliott (knee) dealing with a minor knee injury, there always remains the […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDak Prescott Looks To Stay Consistent In Week 5
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has been consistently good all season so far, and will look to keep it up against the New York Giants in Week 5. He's led the Cowboys to a 3-1 record and first place in the NFC East, doing exactly what was required of him in each game. He's been […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoEagles Defense Having A Season Of Extremes
The Philadelphia Eagles defense is having a season of extremes through the first four weeks of the year. The Eagles defense has finished as the second-worst fantasy defense twice and as a top-10 defense the other two times. Week 5 sees the Eagles taking on a resurgent Carolina Panthers offense, making it more likely that […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoJake Elliott Not An Exciting Option For Week 5
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is not an exciting fantasy option for Week 5 lineups. Elliott finished as the overall K6 in Week 4, but averaged a K25 finish through the first three weeks. He's a low-volume kicker who can't make long kicks, making him a guy who should stay on almost every league's waiver […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoZach Ertz Playing His Way Into Prominent Role
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz didn't even seem like he'd be on the Eagles roster at several points before this season began. Not only is he on the roster, he's the overall fantasy TE6 for Weeks 3 and 4 combined. While Ertz started the season slowly (three catches for 40 yards in Weeks 1 […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDallas Goedert Looks To Take Over Again In Week 5
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert would be an every-week starter in all formats if he were the only tight end on the Eagles roster. Unfortunately for his fantasy managers though, Goedert has to split time with Zach Ertz. The veteran Ertz actually out-targeted and outplayed Goedert in Week 4, and has seen his role […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoQuez Watkins Developing A Fantasy Role
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday but is expected to be able to play on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Watkins has worked as a deep threat for quarterback Jalen Hurts and seems to have jumped past Jalen Reagor as the second wide receiver option on the Philly […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoJalen Reagor Still Waiting For That Breakout Game
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor was hyped as a breakout candidate before this season began. Instead, four weeks into the season, Reagor is the overall WR70 in standard scoring. After a 14-point fantasy performance in Week 1, Reagor has combined for just 13 fantasy points in Weeks 2, 3, and 4. With the Carolina […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDeVonta Smith Could Boom Or Bust In Week 5
Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith is a boom-or-bust option in Week 5 fantasy lineups. Smith has a very high ceiling, which he almost reached in Week 4, but a concerningly low floor as well. Against a barely-there Chiefs secondary in Week 4, Smith caught seven passes for 122 yards and could have had […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoKenneth Gainwell Keeps Gaining Value
Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell continues to gain fantasy value despite the absolute mess that is the Eagles offense. Gainwell has taken advantage of negative game scripts, which the Eagles will likely continue to experience, to finish as a top-20 fantasy running back in two of the four weeks so far this season. […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoMiles Sanders A Concerning Choice In Week 5 Lineups
Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders, drafted to be an RB1 by most fantasy managers this season, is a concerning option in any Week 5 starting lineup. Despite being one of the more talented backs in the league, Sanders had just 15 total touches in Weeks 3 and 4 combined. The Eagles play callers seem […]
