He totaled a ridiculous 4.68 yards before contact per carry, showing how good this Washington line could be. Coleman had dome some good things in Week 1 and 2 before going down. Robinson isn’t just a WR you own as depth for your team; he is a WR that you plug into your WR2 position and have a real shot at getting WR1 numbers from week in and week out. It might just be a one-week patch with a favorable matchup. However, Blount barely played on Sunday while Lewis continued to shine. Was on the field for 81% of the snaps last week.

However, since he only had one more carry, it creates the prospect of either another solid performance or severe drop off and a total dice roll.
– Doug Baldwin gathered in 7 of 8 targets for 92 yards and a TD. Faces a Bengals club that has a solid D that is allowing just 202 passing yards a game. If luck hasn’t been on your side up to this point, you might be finding yourself 0-2.
Dallas Cowboys’ Tony Romo is helped off the field after an injury… Jones also had 123 yards rushing and two touchdowns against St. Louis. Expect the Eagles to balance things out more this week after running the ball just 16 times in the opener, but Bradford should still throw the ball 30-plus times. So far this season Miller has 99 receiving yards and a touchdown. Here are some of the hottest takes floating around, and the best arguments I can come up with against them.
It’s unclear how the Redskins will divvy up carries between Matt Jones and Alfred Morris this week, but chances are both will get double-digit touches. Yeah, then Week 2 happened. In large leagues, Williams is a good stand-alone option with big upside in the event of a McCoy injury, which, let’s be honest, is not at all unlikely.
Dallas has a stout run defense, but the oddsmakers expect this to be a close game (23-25), giving Atlanta plenty of opportunities to keep the ball on the ground. Many, myself included, thought that guy could be Kenny Stills, but he seems to be just a bit player in this offense. For me, the answer is cut him now if you can get a Dalton or Tyrod Taylor off the waiver wire.
In one league, I’m Charlie Brown laying flat on my back wondering how I had been bested again, and in the other I’m Patty laughing hysterically with the football firmly in my grasp.Today I am writing to you as the 0-2 Brent Patterson.In a world that seldom lends a hand to the downtrodden, and in a fake sport where encouragement is often hard to find here is a little week 2 pick-me-up. He got his first action against the Pittsburgh Steelers in week one and had 69 rushing yards and 51 receiving yards replacing the suspended LeGarrette Blount. This week they get a potentially Stafford-less Detroit Lions team that could be an issue. The Browns have allowed 436 yards passing and four touchdowns through their first two games. The volume might not be there but if you can get him on a roster, he’s flex worthy with his playmaking potential.
Unless the Eagles offensive line improves dramatically, there’s no way Murray will be an RB1. Look for the two Washington running backs to split carries again this week against the New York Giants. That is not going to be the case this year.

Yes, the Raiders were awful in week one, but have made a lot of progress and will continue to do so as the season goes on. What they got instead through two games is a grand total 4 catches for 28 yards. Might I suggest you turn on the TV or radio for five minutes, wait for the commercials, and obtain a promo code for the DFS site of your choosing? I know the Falcons have given me everything I’ve hoped for thus far. If I had a time machine, Murray wouldn’t be on my team (and neither would Dez Bryant, obviously). The rookie is the most talented outside weapon the Dolphins have, and I would be shocked if we don’t start seeing more of him. Andy Dalton should be your first priority, but if he isn’t available, Foles can help you in the short term.
You could make a strong argument that Lewis should be the back to go after right now, but there are a few things to consider.
The above statement should really scare owners who drafted him early.
That being said, he won’t be this bad for the rest of the season.
He will be the guy for a few weeks and he looked quick enough last week to do some damage both as a runner and as a receiver.
Holy crap. A Browns player worth owning in fantasy? He would have to implode to lose his job to E.J. Manuel or Matt Cassel. An expanded role is coming, and Chris Johnson isn’t going to hold him back. Through two weeks, Lewis’ 258 yards from scrimmage have been a revelation. What am I doing if I have Anderson?
