Cowboys Defense Allows Just 16 Points In Week 8

The Dallas Cowboys defense allowed just 16 points to the Minnesota Vikings in a Week 8 win on Sunday Night Football.

Greg Zuerlein Makes Four Kicks In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein made two field goals on three attempts and both of his extra point kicks in Week 8.

Dalton Schultz Has A Down Game In Week 8

Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz didn't do much in a Week 8 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Schultz was targeted seven times, but only caught two passes for a total of 11 yards.

Eagles Defense Stars In Week 8 Win

The Philadelphia Eagles defense was outstanding in an easy Week 8 win over the hapless Detroit Lions. In a blowout 44-6 win, the Eagles scored a defensive touchdown, recorded six sacks, and recovered a touchdown. In standard scoring, they put up 20 fantasy points. Through the first seven weeks, they'd put up a total of […]

Jake Elliott Has A Huge Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott had an enormous game in an easy Week 8 win over the hapless Detroit Lions. He made all five of his extra point tries and all three of his field goals. His field goal kicks came from 43, 26, and 41 yards out. A low volume, inconsistent kicker all season […]

DeVonta Smith Catches Only One Pass In Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith made only one catch in a Week 8 blowout win over the Detroit Lions. Smith's one catch came on three targets, and he gained just 15 yards. In a game where the Eagles did not need their passing game at all (quarterback Jalen Hurts completed just nine passes), […]

Quez Watkins Makes Two Catches In Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins made two catches in a Week 8 blowout win over the Detroit Lions. He gained a total of 18 yards, catching both of his targets. Quarterback Jalen Hurts only completed nine passes, so Watkins making two catches gave him the most among Eagles wide receivers. He's developed a consistent, […]

Dallas Goedert Leads The Eagles In Receiving Again In Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert led the Eagles in all receiving categories again in Week 8. He caught six passes on seven targets for 72 yards. In a game where quarterback Jalen Hurts only completed nine passes, Goedert was basically the entire Eagles passing game. The Eagles were firmly in control all game long […]

Kenneth Gainwell Struggles To Find Room In Week 8

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell got plenty of chances in Week 8 but couldn't find much running room. Gainwell actually led the Eagles in carries, running the ball 13 times, but only gained a total of 27 yards. He was not targeted in the passing game. With Boston Scott (60) and Jordan Howard […]

Jalen Hurts - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts hasn't been great on the NFL field, but he's been an excellent fantasy quarterback regardless. There are already loud whispers about backup Gardner Minshew potentially taking over under center for the Eagles, while Hurts is currently having a top-five fantasy season. Much of his production is coming on rushing touchdowns […]

Boston Scott - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott could have a role on offense in Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. With Miles Sanders (ankle) not expected to play, Scott could see some run on offense despite spending most of this season exclusively on special teams. In Week 7, after Sanders was forced to leave, Scott saw […]

Kenneth Gainwell - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell could lead the Eagles backfield in Week 8. He could also end up staying in his low-volume pass catching role. Facing off against the winless Detroit Lions, Gainwell heads into Week 8 as the running back with possibly the most variation in projections. If he steps into the […]

Jalen Reagor - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor, last season's first-round pick, cannot be trusted in any fantasy starting lineups in Week 8. Reagor has fallen to third on the wide receiver depth chart this season in an offense that can barely support one fantasy-relevant pass catcher. Reagor cannot be started in any format and should not […]

Quez Watkins - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins will be just a depth piece in Week 8. The Eagles are taking on the winless Detroit Lions, but this Jalen Hurts-led offense has been anything but consistent in the passing game. Watkins has shown flashes of upside this season, but the Eagles have been way too inconsistent to […]

DeVonta Smith - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith (headache) will look for some consistency in a Week 8 matchup against the winless Detroit Lions. The rookie missed Wednesday's practice due to a headache but was back on the field on Thursday and should be fine to suit up for Sunday's contest. Smith's rookie season has had plenty […]

Dallas Goedert - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is a strong tight end option in Week 8 fantasy lineups. The Eagles take on the winless Detroit Lions and should have little problem moving the ball up and down the field. With Zach Ertz now playing for the Arizona Cardinals, Goedert has all the tight end snaps and […]

Jake Elliott - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott remains firmly off the fantasy radar for Week 8. Elliott did not even attempt a field goal in Week 7 and continues to be one of the lowest volume kickers in the NFL. He's finished in the top-15 of fantasy kickers only once so far this season and should be […]

Eagles Defense Not A Trustworthy Week 8 Choice

The Philadelphia Eagles defense is not a good choice for Week 8 fantasy starting lineups despite a good matchup. The Eagles will take on the winless Detroit Lions, but the defensive unit has done little to show that they are not an enormous liability. They have failed to record a sack for two straight weeks […]

Cowboys Defense A Starting Option In Week 8

The Dallas Cowboys defense remain a starting fantasy option in a Week 8 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. This defensive unit was ranked in the high 20s before the season started, but they've surprised everyone by being a top-12 DST every week of the season so far and a top-five option for […]

Greg Zuerlein - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein is a worthwhile starter in fantasy lineups for Week 8. The Cowboys travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings, meaning Zuerlein will be kicking indoors as part of this elite Dallas offense. The Vikings defense has been solid so far this season and could cause some Cowboys drives to […]

Blake Jarwin - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin is not a starting option in the majority of fantasy leagues for Week 8. The Cowboys will take on the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football and despite Jarwin's touchdown in Week 6 before the Cowboys bye week, he's still watched his season turn him into a backup depth […]
