Matchups We Love
Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA)
The Dolphins boast the best offense in football, and it's not close. Tagovailoa leads the NFL in most categories and sits as the QB2 on the year. It's full steam ahead against the Eagles in the contest with the highest over/under in Week 7.
Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle (WR, MIA)
There's not much analysis required here either. Tyreek Hill is on pace for over 2,000 receiving yards and Jaylen Waddle is co-existing just fine. The Dolphins found themselves in a hole last week and showed an ability to score in a hurry, racking up 21 points in the second quarter. We're also back to these guys combining for outrageous target shares, including 62% this past week.
Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson Jr. (RB, MIA)
It's a very difficult matchup for Mostert, but he's now in the "too good to move off of" category. We know the Dolphins will score and find ways to get him the ball so there's no fear in trotting him out there. Where things become intriguing is the No. 2 option. Jeff Wilson Jr. is ready to roll.
Wilson practiced in full and is off the injury report. He's a strong flex option despite the matchup.
Jalen Hurts (QB, PHI)
Hurts blew the game for his team. He committed three turnovers, one of which was a brutal interception. He also failed to get first downs and hit open receivers late in the game. His 45 passing attempts were the most since 2021, signaling a desperation late in the contest and an inability to run the ball.
Fortunately for fantasy, he found the end zone once on the ground and once through the air en route to a QB4 finish. It's a great matchup and they'll need to keep pace, so he's right back out there.
A.J. Brown (WR, PHI)
Brown keeps dominating week in and week out. We're running out of superlatives at this point. DeVonta Smith led the team in targets, but the production wasn't there. His target share (26%), targets per route run (22%), air yards (45%), and route participation (100%) were all ahead of Brown. It means things should break his way if the usage continues. He's on the injury report with a hamstring, but so long as he's out there, he's a top-24 receiver.
D'Andre Swift (RB, PHI)
Swift's role is absolutely incredible. He has a targets per route run of 21%, which ranks seventh among qualified backs. He's also averaging 17 rushing attempts per game. He's right there with Mostert as a must-start.
Dallas Goedert (TE, PHI)
Goedert followed up his explosion week with another good showing. He earned eight targets and averaged 8.4 yards per reception on five catches. It's a great matchup and they may lean on him more if Smith is hampered at all.
