Ezekiel Elliott Looks Elite Again In Week 4
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott looked like the elite backfield option his fantasy managers expected in a Week 4 win over the Carolina Panthers. "Zeke" ran the ball 20 times, gaining 143 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was only targeted once in the passing game but was unable to come up with the […]

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was excellent and efficient in a Week 4 win over the Carolina Panthers. Prescott attempted just 22 passes, completing 14 of them for 188 yards and four touchdowns. He also rushed four times for 35 more yards on the ground. The Cowboys called 30 running plays for their two running […]

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo wrapped up his season with a strong start on Saturday, striking out 11 Phillies hitters in 5 1/3 innings of work. He allowed just one run on six hits without allowing a walk or a home run. While the 11 strikeouts, a career high, were certainly encouraging, perhaps […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoTony Pollard's Missed Practice Not Injury Related
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard missed practice on Thursday, but his absence was not injury related. Pollard, in fact, missed practice to attend the birth of his daughter. He is not expected to miss any more time and is fully expected to be on the field in his usual role on Sunday against the […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoSandy Alcantara Wraps Up His 2021 Season
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara made his last start of the season on Friday in a 5-0 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. Alcantara tossed five innings, allowing four runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six. He took the loss, ending his season with a 9-15 record and a 3.19 ERA. […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoTyler O'Neill Has A Big Game On Friday
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill had a huge game in Friday's win over the Chicago Cubs. He went 3-for-4 with two home runs and a double, scoring three runs and driving in two. Both of O'Neill's blasts were solo shots, and he now has 34 homers and 79 RBI. It was a complete breakout […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDakota Hudson Pitches Well In His First Start
St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Dakota Hudson pitched well in his first start of the season on Friday. Hudson, who missed most of the season while recovering from Tommy John Surgery, pitched five scoreless innings, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out four. Hudson will likely pitch in relief in the playoffs, but should […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoCowboys Defense Working Their Way To Relevance
The Dallas Cowboys defense was rated poorly before the season, but they've performed well through the first three weeks and may be a top-15 fantasy option in Week 4. The Cowboys defense has finished as an overall top-12 defense (11, 12, 5) in every game this season, and has recorded six interceptions on the season. […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoGreg Zuerlein A Starting Option In Week 4
Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein makes for a decent fantasy option in Week 4. The Cowboys offense has shown elite upside through the first three weeks of the season and should give Zuerlein plenty of chances to kick. Through three weeks, he's finished as a top-10 fantasy kicker twice, making five field goals and nine […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoBlake Jarwin Falling Behind Quickly
Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin watched as Dalton Schultz had a huge Week 3 to end the week as the overall TE1. Meanwhile, Jarwin caught two passes for 14 yards, only seeing those two targets. The good news is that Jarwin and Schultz actually ended up running the exact same number of passing routes, […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDalton Schultz Looks To Keep The Momentum Going
Dallas Cowboys tight end Dalton Schultz had an enormous game in Week 3, ending up as the overall fantasy TE1. He caught six passes on seven targets, gaining 80 yards and scoring two touchdowns. After the first two weeks, this looked like an offense that would not be able to support a fantasy starter at […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoCedrick Wilson Not A Great Option Despite A Great Offense
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson caught the only touchdown by a Cowboys wide receiver in Week 3, but he remains off the fantasy radar in most formats anyway. Wilson split time with Noah Brown, who is almost exclusively a blocking wide receiver/tight end hybrid. Wilson has been filling in while Michael Gallup (calf) recovers, […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoCeeDee Lamb Always A Worthwhile Fantasy Starter
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is always a strong starting option in fantasy lineups even against tough defenses. Week 4 will see the Cowboys take on a strong Carolina Panthers defense that has limited opposing teams to just 146 passing yards per game. Still, Lamb should be peppered with targets from quarterback Dak Prescott […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoTony Pollard Developing Value On His Own
Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard has clearly worked his way into his own fantasy value this season. Previously seen as a high-upside backup, Pollard has put up FLEX numbers or better every week so far this season, including an overall RB4 performance in Week 2. Week 4 gives the Cowboys their toughest challenge yet, […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoEzekiel Elliott Looks To Keep His Arrow Pointing Up
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott was disappointing in Week 1 and then got outplayed by his backup Tony Pollard in Week 2, but has still ended up as the fantasy RB3 over the past two weeks, rushing for 166 yards and three touchdowns. While he hasn't had the every down, full-time role those who […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDak Prescott Takes On A Tough Defense In Week 4
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will face off against a tough Carolina Panthers defense in Week 4. Prescott threw 58 passes in Week 1, then combined for just 54 passes in Weeks 2 and 3. He was very good again in Week 3 after letting the running game take the wheel for Week 2. Prescott […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoEagles Defense Not Recommended In Week 4 Lineups
The Philadelphia Eagles defense is not a strong fantasy option in Week 4 and likely won't be for at least a few more weeks. The Eagles were trounced by the Cowboys in Week 3, allowing 35 points and 380 yards. They were able to record four sacks and score a defensive touchdown, which masked some […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoJake Elliott Not A Week 4 Fantasy Option
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott is not a Week 4 fantasy starting option. Elliott did not even attempt a field goal against the Cowboys in Week 3, and has only made two field goals on three tries this season. He's a solid enough kicker on the field, but he is one of the lower volume […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoZach Ertz Looks To Build On A Strong Performance
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz will look to build on his strong Week 3 performance when the Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. In the loss against the Cowboys, Ertz saw an 18% target share, seeing seven passes thrown his way and scoring a touchdown. It was the best game […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDallas Goedert Looks To Regain The Front Seat In Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert took a noticeable back seat to veteran Zach Ertz in Week 3's complete offensive mess of a game against the Dallas Cowboys. As expected once Ertz stayed on the team, the two tight ends have essentially been cannibalizing one another's fantasy points. While neither can be trusted as a […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoQuez Watkins Struggling To Stand Out
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Quez Watkins has been solid with his opportunities so far this season, but has struggled to stand out. In Week 3, he was on the field for 66% of the offensive snaps the Eagles played, but ended up being targeted just twice. He's drawn seven targets through the first three weeks […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoJalen Reagor Not An Exciting Option In Week 4 Lineups
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor is a low-end flex play, at best, in Week 4 fantasy lineups. Reagor actually led the Eagles in targets against the Cowboys in Week 3, but that was a poorly played and poorly called offensive performance that the team certainly hopes not to repeat. Reagor still hasn't shown anything […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoDeVonta Smith Has A Big Week 4 Ahead
Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith has a big Week 4 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs ahead of him. Smith had a strong NFL debut in Week 1, catching a touchdown and putting up 71 yards. Since then though, he's only gained a total of 44 yards in two games. He's still been […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoKenneth Gainwell Hoping For More Work In Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Kenneth Gainwell disappeared along with the Eagles running game in Week 3, as he only rushed once and made three catches. The Eagles play calling went completely away from the running backs and let quarterback Jalen Hurts struggle his way through the ball game on his own. Before the Week […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoMiles Sanders Looks For A Week 4 Rebound
Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders is an extremely talented NFL running back who could be a fantasy RB1. That same running back, Miles Sanders, only ran the ball twice in a Week 3 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles fell behind early, but that does not excuse the horrific play calling that led […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoJalen Hurts Should Have Another QB1 Performance In Week 4
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is a low-end QB1 option for a Week 4 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Hurts was by no means good on Monday Night Football against the Cowboys, but he ended up as a fantasy QB1 thanks to some garbage time production and his overall rushing ability. Hurts looks a […]
David A Marcillo 3 years agoMiles Mikolas Gets The First Cardinals Loss In 17 Games
St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas was OK on Wednesday, but ended up taking the first loss for the Cardinals in 17 games. Mikolas tossed 5 2/3 innings, allowing three runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out seven. Mikolas threw 96 pitches, 62 for strikes as the Brewers snapped the Cardinals […]

Miami Marlins closer Dylan Floro saved his 13th game of the season in Wednesday's win over the New York Mets. Floro pitched a perfect ninth inning with two strikeouts, delivering a 3-2 victory. Floro has done the job well as closer since the Marlins sent Yimi Garcia to the Astros at the trade deadline to […]
