KC Chiefs 30 – 6 DEN Broncos

Another starting QB goes down. This time it’s the reigning MVP Patrick Mahomes who got injured on a 4th and 1 QB sneak play early in the second quarter. His MRI’s have been negative with just a dislocated kneecap and has around a 3-4 week timetable to return. The Broncos started off the game with a solid drive which ended with Royce Freeman’s first TD on the season. That ended up being their only score on the night as Joe Flacco and the offensive line fell apart and the KC D/ST took over the game. KC were able to sack Flacco 9 times and forced 3 fumbles, 1 which was recovered for a TD. We had KC as one of our defensive streaming options for this week and seems like Denver is going to be a solid option to stream against going forward. Matt Moore came in to replace Mahomes and didn’t look too bad. Moore had a nice 57 yard TD connection with Tyreek Hill in the 3rd quarter to really put an exclamation point on the game. Obviously any KC players you own will take a hit with Mahomes out and a tough 3 game stretch coming up against GB, MIN and TEN. Denver seems to be looking forward to next year as they’re listening in on offers for WR Emmanuel Sanders who had a hot start to the season but has fallen behind Courtland Sutton as the WR2 on the team. Sutton continues to be the bright spot for the offense as he put up 87 yards on 6 receptions and should continue to put up consistent numbers for the remainder of the season as long as Flacco can actually get the ball to him.

LA Rams 37 – 10 ATL Falcons

The Falcons suffered their 5th straight loss and also lost Matt Ryan late in the game with what seems to be a sprained right ankle. Apparently the injury is something Ryan can manage and could be available for Week 8 and then rest during Atlanta’s bye week in Week 9. The Falcons struggled to get anything going on offense as the Rams looked like their former selves snapping a 3 game losing streak. Jared Goff put up a solid game against Atlanta’s terrible defense and threw 2 TD’s and ran 1 in. Todd Gurley’s only reception was one of those TD’s and he wasn’t able to get much going on the ground even with Malcolm Brown out as he split carries with Darrell Henderson instead. The WR trio of Cooper Kupp, Brandin Cooks and Robert Woods all had decent games but it was Gerald Everett who caught the only other TD pass from Goff finishing the day with 4 receptions for 50 yards and 1 TD. LAR D/ST took over this game forcing 3 fumbles, 1 that was returned for a TD, 1 interception and putting up 5 sacks. Julio Jones lead all receivers with 93 yards from 6 receptions as Jalen Ramsey didn’t seem to be an issue for him at all. Austin Hooper however caught the only TD the Falcons scored on a garbage time drive from backup Matt Schaub. Atlanta also had no running game at all as Devonta Freeman was ejected for throwing a punch at Aaron Donald and Ito Smith left the game early with a head injury.

MIA Dolphins 21 – 31 BUF Bills

Despite the score, the Bills actually struggled in this game as the Dolphins looked like the better team with Ryan Fitzpatrick leading the way against his former team. Ultimately, Buffalo got away with the win returning a last minute onside kick for a TD. Not sure what went wrong with BUF D/ST letting Fitzpatrick slice through them for 282 yards, 1 TD, 1 rush TD and only putting up 1 sack and 1 interception. Devin Singletary returned this week but couldn’t get much going as he was only given 7 carries compared to Frank Gore’s 11. The Bills could have limited him due to it being his first game back from injury but they were also playing from behind until the 4th quarter so weren’t able to really control the game and establish the run. John Brown, who was one of our starts of the week, lead the Buffalo WRs with 5 receptions for 83 yards and 1 TD. Josh Allen also put up a solid start of the week performance throwing for 202 yards and 2 TDs as well as rushing for 32 yards.Mark Walton lead the Miami backfield this week with 14 carries for 66 yards which is a solid performance against a top run defense. This pushes Kenyan Drake and Kalen Ballage lower on the depth chart for now as we await Drake possibly getting traded. Miami receivers DeVante Parker(5/55/1) and Preston Williams(6/82/0) lead the team in receptions while Mike Gesicki also caught all 4 of his targets for 41 yards. Miami looked like a more complete team than previous weeks and seem to be headed in the right direction for now. Obviously we have to put the Bills coming off of a bye week into account but coaching moves like starting Mark Walton which allows possibly trading Drake for draft picks is setting them up nicely for the future.

JAX Jaguars 27 – 17 Cincinnati Bengals

This was one of the less exciting games of the week with a total of 12 punts going into the 4th quarter. Jacksonville was expected to win and utilize Leonard Fournette against the Bengal’s bottom ranked run defense. Fournette carried the ball 29 times for 131 yards but was actually stuffed on a goal line 4th down attempt to start the game. Gardner Minshew had a solid outing for a streaming option and threw for 255 yards and 1 TD. His favorite target actually went from D.J. Chark to Dede Westbrook this week while his only TD was a 2 yard pass to Keelan Cole. Westbrook lead receivers with 9 targets, catching 6 of them for 103 yards. We will likely see more of a split of targets between Chark and Westbrook going forward making them both solid WR2 options in your lineups. JAX D/ST secured the victory for them picking off Andy Dalton 3 times, 1 which was returned for a TD early in the 4th quarter. Dalton threw for 276 yards,1 TD and 1 rushing TD along with those 3 interceptions and the Bengals join other teams in WR roulette with Alex Erickson leading the pack putting up 137 yards on 8 receptions and 14 targets. Tyler Boyd also had 14 targets but he was only able to catch 5 of them for 55 yards while Auden Tate caught 3 of his 6 for 65 yards. Joe Mixon scored the only receiving TD on the Bengals side on a 2 yard pass, saving his miserable day where he rushed for 2 yards on 10 attempts. Yup, that isn’t a typo!

MIN Vikings 42 – 30 DET Lions

We definitely didn’t expect a high scoring shootout between these 2 teams. With so many good fantasy performances it’s hard to know where to start so we’ll go with the winning team. The game was tied 21-21 going into the half but the Vikings managed to pull away in the second half riding the hot hand of Kirk Cousins and the consistent as ever Dalvin Cook. Cousins threw for 337 yards and 4 TDs all spread out to different receivers including Kyle Rudolph, Bisi Johnson, C.J. Ham and Adam Thielen. Thielen actually injured his hamstring on his TD catch and was taken out of the game early which allowed Detroit to focus more on Stefon Diggs explaining all these different players getting involved in the end zone. Even though Diggs didn’t get into the end zone, he still managed to catch 7 receptions for 142 yards. Dalvin Cook took over his backfield again with 25 carries compared to Alexander Mattison’s 7. Cook’s 25 carries resulted in 142 yards and 2 TDs and he’s going to continue to lead the backfield barring any injuries. With the Vikings looking like a more complete team 2 weeks in a row it allows the running and passing game to succeed since defenses have to focus on both rather than just the running as we saw earlier this season. Detroit’s TDs weren’t as evenly distributed as the Vikings’ as all 4 went to Marvin Jones Jr in similar fashion to Stefon Diggs performance last week. Jones Jr caught 10 receptions for 93 yards to add to this 4 TDs while Danny Amendola surprisingly lead the team in receiving yards with 105 on 8 receptions. Matthew Stafford threw for 364 yards with 4 TDs and 1 interception and became the fastest player to reach 40,000 career passing yards. The running game was basically non-existent for Detroit as Kerryon Johnson got taken out of the game early with a knee injury in the first quarter. Ty Johnson and J.D. McKissic weren’t able to do much as they took over for him combining for 58 yards on 15 carries.

OAK Raiders 24 – 42 GB Packers

Another unexpected shootout with Aaron Rodgers putting up a perfect performance with a 158.3 passer rating! Rodgers threw for 429 yards, 5 TDs and 1 rushing TD as he lead the Packers to a comfortable lead all game after being down 10-7 late in the 1st quarter. GB’s offense didn’t have the ball much as they put up plenty of big plays to get them down the field quickly and never really established a run game. Aaron Jones led the backfield this week with just 12 carries for 50 yards compared to Jamaal Williams‘ 3 carries for 5 yards. That should put Jones owners at ease for now but it could have been more due to how the game went rather than a planned split. Both backs were able to pull in receiving TDs with Jones catching a beautiful 21 yarder to start the game. With Davante Adams out for another week, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Geronimo Allison were both questionable coming into the game but ended up playing. MVS just needed 2 receptions to lead the team in yards with 133 and 1 TD. Jake Kumerow and Jimmy Graham were also able to pull in 1 TD each as Rodgers distributed the ball evenly between all his receivers. The Raiders were in the game until Derek Carr lost the ball leaping for a TD which resulted in a touch back for GB. Besides that, he put up a solid game throwing for 293 yards, 2 TDs and 1 interception. One of his TD passes went to Darren Waller who should’ve had 4 TDs! 1 was overturned due to a penalty and he was stopped at the 1 yard line on his other one. Either way, Waller lead the team with 7 receptions for 126 yards along with his 2 TDs while Foster Moreau made his NFL debut catching a TD. Josh Jacobs had a solid performance putting up 124 yards on 21 carries but with the Raiders playing from behind most of the game they had to throw a lot more than usual.

HOU Texans 23 – 30 IND Colts

This was our game of the week going into Week 7 and it delivered. The Colts did manage to get into an early lead of 7-0 and never looked back with the Texans playing catch up the whole time. Jacoby Brissett continues to lead this team and had an impressive game throwing for 326 yards and 4 TDs. With defenses focused on T.Y. Hilton, Zach Pascal was able to put up a nice game catching 6 receptions for 106 yards and 2 TDs. Hilton still managed to have a great performance with 6 receptions for 74 yards and 1 TD to add to that. The last of Brissett’s 4 TDs went to Eric Ebron who had a beautiful one-handed grab in the end zone making himself a catch of the year candidate. Marlon Mack had the volume with 18 carries but only managed to put up 44 yards on them as the Colts seemed to focus on Houston’s weaker secondary in this game. Mack is consistently getting volume averaging just under 20 carries per game which is great for anyone that owns him. With the Texans playing from behind all game, the RB duo of Carlos Hyde and Duke Johnson weren’t able to get much going with a combined 69 yards on 19 carries. Deshaun Watson threw for 308 yards and 1 TD but also gave up 2 interceptions with 1 ultimately costing them the comeback late in the 4th. DeAndre Hopkins finally put up a first round pick type of game catching 9 receptions for 106 yards and 1 TD on 12 targets. It helped that Will Fuller was taken out of the game early with a hamstring injury,after scoring a TD on a shuffle pass from Watson, which opened up more targets for Hopkins. Kenny Stills was right behind Hopkins in receiving yards with 105 on 4 catches and is worth a pick up if you need a WR with Fuller likely to miss several weeks.

ARI Cardinals 27 – 21 NY Giants

The Cardinals win their third in a row and all of a sudden the NFC West is looking like the most competitive division with the Seahawks losing and the Rams finally snapping their 3 game losing streak. David Johnson and Chase Edmonds owners were grabbing their pitchforks yesterday heading over to Kliff Kingsbury’s house. Johnson was questionable this week, similarly to last week, but ended up being upgraded to active before the game. However, Johnson only came in on 1 play during the whole game when Edmonds needed to come out! Edmonds put up a nice game on everyone’s benches as he had 27 carries for 126 yards and 3 TDs. Jay Ajayi is supposed to work out for the Cardinals on Tuesday so we could be seeing some bad news about David Johnson later this week. With Edmonds taking care of business for the Cardinals, Kyler Murray and crew didn’t have to do much. Murray threw for 104 yards and rushed for another 28 while the receiving game was non existent with Pharoh Cooper leading the group with 4 receptions. It was surprisingly more of a defensive game on both ends with Daniel Jones getting sacked 8 times and throwing 1 interception. Saquon Barkley returned to put up a solid game rushing for 72 yards and 1 TD on 18 carries while Golden Tate seems to have become Jones’ favorite target with 11 this game. Tate caught 6 of those targets for 80 yards and Evan Engram disappeared from the game only catching 1 of this 5 targets. NYG D/ST also stepped it up with a blocked punt recovered for a TD to keep the Giants in the game early in the second quarter.

SF 49ers 9 – 0 WSH Redskins

This was the ugliest game of the week and probably the season so far as we had a total of 3 field goals, 2 missed field goals, 6 punts, 1 interception and 1 fumble. It was also very ugly for your fantasy team if you started anybody playing in this game besides the SF D/ST. They lead the way with 3 sacks, a forced fumble and 0 points allowed. The 49ers passing game was non existent likely due to bad weather as Jimmy Garoppolo threw for 151 yards and 1 interception. His lead receiver was Kendrick Bourne with 3 receptions for 69 yards while George Kittle had 3 receptions for for 38 yards and failed to get into the end zone on a goal line carry. WSH D/ST actually looked solid in being able to stop Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida and Kyle Juszczyk’s absence has definitely made an impact on the 49ers backfield. The Redskins’ offense couldn’t get anything going through the air as Case Keenum threw for 77 yards and Trey Quinn lead WRs with 2 receptions for 30 yards. Terry McLaurin put up his worst game of the season catching 1 of his 2 targets for 11 yards. The run game wasn’t too bad for Washington as Adrian Peterson managed to put up 81 yards on the 49ers elite run defense but he did also lose a fumble on one of their best drive at the SF 29 yard line costing them the chance to score any points.

NO Saints 36 – 25 CHI Bears

What a depressing game if you’re a Bears fan. This may be a pivotal moment in the season where Mitch Trubisky might finally be seen as ‘not the guy’. Don’t be fooled by his stats. Mitch threw for 251 yards and 2 touchdowns but the majority of that was garbage time in the 4th quarter. Coach Matt Nagy is also really making it difficult to start any running backs on this abysmal offense. The Bears only rushed 7 times which made David Montgomery get negative points because of his fumble. The only people I would even consider starting on the Bears is Allen Robinson (who caught 10 receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown) and Tarik Cohen (who caught 9 receptions for 19 yards). Tarik is a great flex play for 1-point PPR formats and Robinson is bound to have a good game because of how often he is targeted – he was targeted 16 times this game. Other than these two players, do not start anyone on the Bears! Bears DST is obviously not included in that as Cordarrelle Patterson ran one back to keep Chicago in the game in the first half. On the other hand, the Saints are looking like a very solid team even against tough defenses. Teddy Bridgewater threw for 281 yards and 2 touchdowns. Although I wouldn’t say he’s the most fantasy friendly player, he is definitely getting more comfortable and definitely a waiver wire moving forward. Michael Thomas continues to be the most reliable wide receiver with 9 receptions for 131 yards. He is a must start, never trade, backbone of fantasy teams. The real star of this game was one of our waiver wire pickups – Latavius Murray. Although some people thought he would have a decent game, I think he demolished expectations. Latavius rushed 27 times for 119 yards and 2 touchdowns! He also caught 5 passes for 31 yards. This guy is a beast and is a must start if Alvin Kamara continues to be out next week. Even against tough match ups like the Bears, the volume on this team will always guarantee slight fantasy success.

LA Chargers 20 – 23 TEN Titans

This game was an absolute heart breaker if you owned Melvin Gordon. The Chargers ended up losing the game on a goal line fumble by this star running back. Because of this, Gordon had a non-existent game with only 32 rushing yards and 2 receptions for -3 yards. Oh yeah, and he fumbled. Austin Ekeler, on the other hand, is looking like more of a receiver than a running back! Ekeler only had 5 rushes for 7 yards, but was the leading receiver with 7 receptions for 118 yards and 1 TD. He is an absolute beast for PPR format leagues and Melvin Gordon’s presence should not discourage you from starting Ekeler at all. Hunter Henry had another nice game with 6 receptions for 97 yards and is showing everyone that if he’s healthy, he is a must-start for any format. Keenan Allen had a very quiet game but do not bench him at all. He was still targeted 11 times which means this game was just a fluke. Lastly, Philip Rivers is definitely a high-end QB2 as he threw for 329 yards and 2 TDs. Although he is unpredictable, he’s still a veteran and could always be a last minute option if you need a quarterback. For the Titans, Ryan Tannehill started this week and threw for 312 yards and 2 touchdowns/1 interception. Although he didn’t have a bad game, I would stay away from him until he can prove he’s different than Marcus Mariota (unless he has a very favorable match up). Derrick Henry is continuously showing that he is a low-end RB1 with another solid performance. Henry rushed for 90 yards and 1 touchdown. He also caught 1 pass for 18 yards. This man is a must start no matter what the quarterback situation is. Lastly, Corey Davis was the leading receiver with 6 receptions for 80 yards and a touchdown. Davis will continue to be a flex consideration in deep leagues.

BAL Ravens 30 – 16 SEA Seahawks

Lamar Jackson and the Ravens got it done at a very hard place to win, Seattle. Although Lamar didn’t have the best passing day (passed for only 143 yards) , he made up for it by rushing for 114 yards and 1 TD. Jackson is the most reliable quarterback in the league currently because of his rushing edge that even if he doesn’t pass well – he’ll make it up with rushing points. Other than him, it was a quiet day for the Ravens offense. Mark Ingram ran for only 46 yards and had one reception. The top receiver was Miles Boykin with 2 receptions and 55 yards. I wouldn’t be worried about the Ravens offense, Seattle is tough at home and they should be back to having solid games. Mark Andrews will still be a must start. Ravens DST was phenomenal, they scored 2 touchdowns and helped beat Russel Wilson. Wilson had a very quiet game for his expectations. He threw for 241 yards and had 1 touchdown and 1 interception respectively. This game was more defensive as stated before, so the numbers on the other side weren’t too crazy either. Chris Carson had 21 attempts for 65 yards and 3 receptions. He is still getting crazy amounts of volume with Rashaad Penny being out so he is a no-brainer start. The star of this offense was Tyler Lockett. The reliable receiver had 5 catches for 61 yards and a touchdown. With Will Dissly being out, I like Lockett in my line up no matter what. I will say the same thing with DK Metcalf.

PHI Eagles 10 – 37 DAL Cowboys

The Cowboys bounced back after an embarrassing loss to the Jets and the Eagles just looked plain embarrassing. Dak Prescott threw for 239 yards and 1 TD/1 INT which is what I would expect from Dak. Expect him to come back to Earth after this phenomenal start this season. Prescott is not going to be putting up crazy numbers because that’s not the quarterback that he is. Ezekiel Elliot had another great game with 111 rushing yards and a touchdown. He also caught 6 passes for 36 yards. Zeke is back and will continue to dominate the running game for the Cowboys…even though Tony Pollard looks great. Amari Cooper had an average game for himself with 5 receptions for 106 yards. There is nothing else to say about him. He’s great – play him no matter what. On the other side, the Eagles did not look good on either side of the ball. Carson Wentz threw for 191 yards and 1 Touchdown/1 Interception. I don’t really trust Wentz right now as he does not look like himself on offense. Jordan Howard had a game that could have been 100+ yards rushing, but he wasn’t given the opportunity as he only rushed 11 times for 50 yards. One interesting thing about the receivers on the Eagles is the tight-end situation. Last year’s star Zach Ertz has been struggling with living up to his reputation and only caught 2 balls for 38 yards. Dallas Goedert actually saw more action than Ertz with 4 receptions for 69 yards and 1 touchdown. Although I don’t think this is something to be too concerning for Ertz owners, I believe that Goedert is someone that owners, who have issues in the TE department, should be considering in the future.

NE Patriots 33 – 0 NY Jets

To start off with, I really hope nobody actually started anyone on the Jets other than Le’Veon Bell. This team got absolutely slaughtered and I don’t think a lot of people thought it would’ve been that bad. Bell rushed for 70 yards and caught 1 reception for 6 yards and honestly, I would call that a success. Sam Darnold might have to fake mono again because he put up a terrible performance. 86 yards and 4 interceptions? I know it was a touch match-up but at a certain point Sam was ‘seeing ghosts’ as he said on the sideline. The top receiver was Demaryius Thomas with 3 receptions for 42 yards. Long story short, do not start anyone on this team (other than Bell) until further notice. The Patriots actually look unstoppable. Tom Brady had a quiet game with 249 passing yards and 1 TD/1 INT but he didn’t need a big game because of his defense. The Patriots DST will not regress and continue to put up outrageous RB1 numbers. Although they only sacked Darnold once, they had 4 interceptions and 2 fumble recoveries – you can’t make this stuff up. Sony Michel is usually known as a TD dependent running back and this game was no different. Sony rushed for only 42 yards but punched in 3 touchdowns! This is a good sign for Michel owners as you can expect at least 1 touchdown a week from this back who takes the goal line work. James White had another solid performance with 7 receptions for 59 yards. I believe he was robbed of a touchdown which would have put him on the exceeded expectations list. Lastly, Julian Edelman owners should continue to be happy as Edelman had 7 receptions for 47 yards and rushed the ball for 20 yards. It is a really good sign that they will use him anywhere on the offense because of his athleticism. Jakobi Meyers was a new stand out (5 receptions for 47 yards) because of the Patriots thin receiving core, but don’t expect much from him in the future as the Patriots just traded for Mohamed Sanu. Sanu owners should be excited for what’s to come; stay tuned as we will update you how this affects other offensive personnel.
