They have helped me dominate my league to the point that I'm called the Evil Empire by my league mates" - Rick Himes @bigisland31 ​ [] 1. HOU: C.J. Stroud throws for 356 yards [Source: ESPN.com]() Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud went 23-for-39 for 356 yards, one touchdown and one interception against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. He also rushed for eight yards and one touchdown on two carries during the game. Our view: Stroud was cool and precise all afternoon, just like he was in his record-setting performance last week. He has been an elite fantasy quarterback the last two weeks and should be in lineups over everyone but elite QB1 options against the Cardinals next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 2. DAL: Record-setting day for Lamb [Source: ESPN.com]() CeeDee Lamb caught 11 of 14 targets for 151 yards and a score. He became the first wide receiver in NFL history to post three straight 10+ catch and 150+ yard games in NFL history. Our view: Mike McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer made the right adjustments to the Dallas passing game during the bye as Lamb has keyed a passing game revival for the Cowboys. Dak Prescott threw for 404 yards and four scores in a laugher against woeful Giants defense, and Brandin Cooks even posted a huge 9-173-1 line for his best game as a Cowboy by a large margin. [Back to Top](#top) = = ​ [] 3. HOU: Noah Brown finishes with 172 yards [Source: ESPN.com]() Houston Texans WR Noah Brown caught seven passes for 172 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. He was targeted eight times during the game. Our view: Brown could end up being one of the best waiver pickups of the year with Nico Collins hurt and CJ Stroud balling out. He should be in lineups as a WR3/Flex against the Cardinals next week even if Collins is healthy enough to play. [Back to Top](#top) [] 4. MIN: Joshua Dobbs accounts for two scores [Source: ESPN.com]() Minnesota Vikings QB Joshua Dobbs completed 23-of-34 passes for 268 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints in his first start with the team, while running eight times for 44 yards and a score. Our view: Dobbs is second in the league in quarterback rushing after Lamar Jackson and he's doing more than enough as a passer to turn that into fantasy relevance. He might even get the Vikings into playoff contention. He's a solid fantasy QB1 at Denver next week, with the promise that Justin Jefferson could return to this offense. [Back to Top](#top) [] 5. ARI: McBride dominates passing game with Murray in [Source: ESPN.com]() Trey McBride caught eight of nine targets for 131 yards in the win over Atlanta. Our view: McBride was the apple of Kyler Murray's eye upon the quarterback's return from an ACL tear. He caught a desperation heave from Murray that set up the game winning field goal to cap a career high yardage day. His value has only gone up with Murray back in, while Marquise Brown only caught one of his four targets. Michael Wilson and Rondale Moore were both bigger parts of the passing game than Brown. We'll hope for a bounce back game vs. Houston from Brown, while McBride is an everyweek TE1 going forward. [Back to Top](#top) [] 6. MIN: T.J. Hockenson posts big stat line [Source: ESPN.com]() Minnesota Vikings TE T.J. Hockenson ended up with 11 receptions for 134 yards and a touchdown on 15 targets in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints. It was his first 100-yard game since Jan. 15, 2023 in the NFC wild-card game against the New York Giants, and it was his most yards in a game since going for 179 yards and two scores against the Seattle Seahawks on Oct. 2, 2022 as a member of the Minnesota Vikings. Our view: Joshua Dobbs getting in at quarterback isn't going to hurt Hockenson's fantasy value in the least bit, although Justin Jefferson's impending return could reduce his targets slightly. Hopefully Hockenson won't be questionable next week after going into this week's game with the tag because of a rib injury. [Back to Top](#top) [] 7. ATL: Robinson scores, takes over backfield [Source: ESPN.com]() Bijan Robinson carried the ball 22 times for 95 yards and a score and caught one of two targets for 11 yards. Tyler Allgeier carried the ball nine times for 31 yards and caught his only target for seven yards. Our view: After Arthur Smith sung the praises of Tyler Allgeier as a short yardage back, it was Robinson who scored from five yards out and put more distance between Allgeier and himself in fantasy value and workload than we had seen to date. Robinson is back to being worth an RB2 start if not more after the bye next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 8. CIN: Ja'Marr Chase finishes with 124 yards [Source: ESPN.com]() Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase caught five passes for 124 yards and one touchdown against the Houston Texans in Week 10. He was targeted six times during the game. Our view: Chase was quiet during the first half, but broke free for a long score in the second half to account for a strong fantasy performance even though he was not 10%% entering this game. He'll turn around on a short rest and face the Ravens on Thursday. [Back to Top](#top) [] 9. HOU: Devin Singletary has outstanding game [Source: ESPN.com]() Houston Texans RB Devin Singletary rushed for 150 yards and one touchdown on 30 carries against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. He also caught one pass for 11 yards during the game. Our view: The Texans running game finally got off of the schnied behind a huge effort from Singletary. Dameon Pierce could return from his ankle injury soon, but there's no way Singletary will give back his starting job after this performance. He's worth an RB2/Flex play against Arizona next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 10. DET: Both backs reach end zone, post big days [Source: ESPN.com]() Jahmyr Gibbs ran for 77 yards and two scores on 14 carries and caught three of five targets for 35 yards. David Montgomery gained 116 yards and scored on 12 carries. He was not targeted in the passing game. Our view: The Lions employed a true committee backfield for the first time this year, and both backs were able to come through for fantasy players. Montgomery's ceiling is down a little, but Gibbs has the look of a league winner with all but one game between now and Week 17 indoors. [Back to Top](#top) [] 11. LAC: Allen scores, leaves game, returns, scores again [Source: ESPN.com]() Keenan Allen caught 11 of 14 targets for 175 yards and two scores. He left the game with a shoulder injury but was able to return and caught a game-tying score. Our view: Justin Herbert also threw touchdown passes to Quentin Johnston and Jalen Guyton, but Allen is the clear #1 here. We'll be watching practice reports heading into a matchup with the Packers to make sure Allen will be available in Week 11. [Back to Top](#top) [] 12. SEA: Smith throws for 369, doesn't turn ball over in win [Source: ESPN.com]() Geno Smith completed 31 of 47 pass attempts for 369 yards and two scores with no interceptions. He didn't fumble, was sacked only once, and ran for 13 yards on his only rush attempt. Our view: Both DK Metcalf (7-98) and Tyler Lockett (8-92-1) came through late to help the Seahawks edge Washington at home. The Seahawks passing game was big as expected against a defanged Washington pass defense, but the Giants don't have the players to take advantage of them next week. The Seahawks will travel to Los Angeles to face the Rams as Smith quieted any talk of Drew Lock potentially playing with this performance. [Back to Top](#top) [] 13. SF: Brock Purdy throws three TDs [Source: ESPN.com]() San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy went 19-for-26 for 296 yards and three touchdowns against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. Our view: With Deebo Samuel and Trent Williams back, Purdy and the 49ers offense toyed with the Jaguars defense. The Bucs will try to slow down the 49ers offensive machine next week. Purdy could be a high floor QB1 from here on out. [Back to Top](#top) [] 14. SF: Christian McCaffrey close to 150 total yards [Source: ESPN.com]() San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey rushed for 95 yards on 16 carries against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. He also caught six passes for 47 yards during the game. Our view: The 49ers tried to get McCaffrey a touchdown in garbage time to break the NFL record for consecutive games with a touchdown, but they were unsuccessful. McCaffrey showed no ill effects from the oblique injury that made him a game time decision going into the bye. He'll face a stout Bucs run defense next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 15. TB: Big afternoon for Mike Evans [Source: ESPN.com]() Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans ended up with game highs of six receptions, 143 yards and 10 targets in Week 10 against the Tennessee Titans, and he ended up with a 22-yard touchdown in the third quarter. Our view: Evans was a big bully in the Titans secondary and he was also faster than his competition. He has been riffing well with Baker Mayfield all year, making Evans one of the best value picks at wide receiver through ten weeks. He'll have a tougher matchup against the 49ers next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 16. PIT: Najee Harris reaches end zone [Source: ESPN.com]() Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris rushed for 82 yards and one touchdown on 16 carries against the Green Bay Packers in Week 10. He also caught three passes for 14 yards during the game. Our view: Harris has scored in three of the last four weeks and he is benefiting from the Steelers being able to stay in hyperconservative mode on offense against mediocre opponents. He was held in check for 43 total yards against the Browns in the first meeting, so temper expectations for Week 11. [Back to Top](#top) [] 17. CLE: Jerome Ford hits triple digits [Source: ESPN.com]() Cleveland Browns RB Jerome Ford rushed 17 times for a game-high 107 yards in Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens, while adding a catch for two yards on his only target. Our view: Ford has been a solid RB2 play since taking over as the lead back despite ceding touchdown opportunities to Kareem Hunt. His best fantasy game of the year came against the Steelers in the first matchup, so he should be a great play next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 18. BAL: Keaton Mitchell has long touchdown [Source: ESPN.com]() Baltimore Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell ended up with three runs for 34 yards and a 39-yard touchdown run in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns, while also adding a 32-yard reception on his only catch on two targets. Our view: Mitchell's two big plays came early and then the Ravens inextricably went away from him. He's a what-the-heck flex with upside against the Bengals on Thursday. [Back to Top](#top) [] 19. CIN: Tyler Boyd surpasses 100-yard mark [Source: ESPN.com]() Cincinnati Bengals WR Tyler Boyd caught eight passes for 117 yards against the Houston Texans in Week 10. He was targeted 12 times during the game. Our view: Boyd had a strong game with Tee Higgins sitting, but he dropped a score that could have given the Bengals a lead late. If Higgins can't go on Thursday against the Ravens, Boyd will be a WR3/Flex play. [Back to Top](#top) The best things sent in the Footballguys Group Chat today: - 👀 Everyone look out!

NO: Chris Olave flirts with triple digits [Source: ESPN.com]() New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave ended up with six receptions for 94 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. Our view: Olave's toe tap touchdown was one of the plays of the day. He shouldn't lose much if Jameis Winston is the quarterback after the bye with Derek Carr leaving this one because of head and shoulder injuries. [Back to Top](#top) [] 21. SF: George Kittle surpasses 100-yard mark [Source: ESPN.com]() San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle caught three passes 116 yards and one touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 10. He was targeted four times during the game. Our view: Kittle broke free for a 66-yard score on a play that highlighted Brock Purdy's pocket presence. Kittle is inconsistent, but his weekly ceiling is up there with any fantasy tight end. [Back to Top](#top) [] 22. PIT: Jaylen Warren surpasses 100-yard mark [Source: ESPN.com]() Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren rushed for 101 yards and one touchdown on 15 carries against the Green Bay Packers in Week 10. He also caught two passes for nine yards during the game. Our view: Warren isn't taking over for Najee Harris, but the Steelers game scripts are giving him enough opportunity to be a solid RB2/Flex play even mired in a committee. He had 86 total yards in the first matchup with Cleveland and should be in lineups as an RB2/Flex next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 23. ATL: Taylor Heinicke suffers injury in Week 10 [Source: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero]( Atlanta Falcons QB Taylor Heinicke (undisclosed) suffered an undisclosed injury in the fourth quarter of the Week 10 game against the Arizona Cardinals, and he was replaced by former starter QB Desmond Ridder. Our view: It's a hamstring injury for Heinicke, but at least Atlanta is going into their bye. Desmond Ridder moved the offense and had a go-ahead rushing score, but the defense let the Falcons down as Kyler Murray drove Arizona for a game-winning field goal. No matter who starts for the Falcons in Week 12, you probably don't want to carry a Falcons quarterback through the bye. [Back to Top](#top) [] 24. IND: Jonathan Taylor reaches end zone [Source: ESPN.com]() Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 69 yards and one touchdown on 23 carries against the New England Patriots in Week 10. He also caught one pass for six yards during the game. Our view: The Colts backfield almost completely belongs to Taylor now. Gardner Minshew isn't threatening as a downfield passer, so Taylor will be running against heavy boxes, but he should be fresh for the stretch run with four fewer weeks of wear and tear after starting the season on the PUP list, a lighter load for a few committee games, and a bye to rest next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 25. NE: Demario Douglas has six receptions [Source: ESPN.com]() New England Patriots WR Demario Douglas caught six passes for a team-high 84 receiving yards against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10. He was targeted nine times during the game. Our view: Douglas was the only sign of life in the Patriots passing game. He is emerging as the team's #1 receiver and should be held through the bye. He was questionable with an ankle injury coming into the game, so the bye should help him be even more effective from Week 12 on. [Back to Top](#top) [] 26. NE: Ezekiel Elliott rushes for 54 yards [Source: ESPN.com]() New England Patriots RB Ezekiel Elliott rushed for 54 yards on 13 carries against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10. He also caught two passes for 34 yards during the game. Our view: Elliott looked a bit renewed in a Patriots uniform. Rhamondre Stevenson left briefly with a back issue, so Elliott is probably worth a hold in deeper leagues as an injury upside #1A with a chance to gain value in the future. [Back to Top](#top) [] 27. NO: Derek Carr leaves game with injuries [Source: NewOrleansSaints.com - John DeShazier](=) New Orleans Saints QB Derek Carr (concussion, shoulder) suffered a concussion and a shoulder injury during the Week 10 game and has been ruled out. Our view: The Saints are on bye next week, so perhaps Carr might not miss any additional games. New Orleans has one of the best backup quarterback in the league in Jameis Winston, so they don't have to rush Carr back. [Back to Top](#top) [] 28. NE: Mac Jones turns in unspectacular performance [Source: ESPN.com]() New England Patriots QB Mac Jones went 15-for-20 for 170 yards, zero touchdowns and one interception against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10, before getting benched during the fourth quarter in favor of QB Bailey Zappe. Jones also picked up 25 rushing yards on three carries and was sacked five times. Our view: The Patriots passing game is going to be bottom five in the league no matter who the quarterback is. The Patriots go into their bye facing long term uncertainty at quarterback, and probably at head coach. [Back to Top](#top) [] 29. MIN: Alexander Mattison leaves game with concussion [Source: ESPN.com - Kevin Seifert]() Minnesota Vikings RB Alexander Mattison (concussion) suffered a concussion during the Week 10 game and has been ruled out. Our view: Ty Chandler has gone from third string afterthought to starter in two weeks. He'll be a waiver wire pickup this week with a trip to Denver up next. [Back to Top](#top) [] 30. NE: Rhamondre Stevenson eclipses 100 all-purpose yards [Source: ESPN.com]() New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 88 yards on 20 carries against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10. He also caught three passes for 14 yards on five targets during the game. Our view: Stevenson got the kind of workload that was expected when he was taken in the 3rd/4th round of drafts, but only because the Colts offense was only slightly more effective than the Patriots. He left briefly with a back injury, but returned to the game and didn't look like he was limited by the issue. He's only a low ceiling RB2/Flex heading into his bye. [Back to Top](#top) [] 31. GB: Jayden Reed reaches end zone [Source: ESPN.com]() Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed caught five passes for 84 yards and one touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. He was targeted five times during the game. Our view: Reed caught a long score on third and 16 to key a big day if you trusted him as a what-the-heck flex. Reed and Romeo Doubs have traded off useful fantasy weeks and both are what-the-heck flex plays against the Chargers next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 32. BAL: Lamar Jackson mistake-prone in loss [Source: ESPN.com]() Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson completed 13-of-23 passes for 223 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, including a pick-six in the fourth quarter, in Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns. He rushed eight times for a team-best 41 yards. Our view: Jackson's numbers were held down a bit by a spirited Browns offense, but a play from ahead game script and big total plays/time of possession deficit lowered his ceiling further. He has been a boom/bust play and Thursday, he will face a solid Bengals defense that just got shredded by CJ Stroud. [Back to Top](#top) [] 33. JAX: Travis Etienne held to 44 total yards [Source: ESPN.com]() Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne rushed for 35 yards on nine carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10. He also caught two passes for nine yards during the game. Our view: Etienne was on a touchdown-fueled fantasy tear going into the bye, but the whole Jaguars offense ran into a brick wall against the 49ers today. This game showed us Etienne's floor. With a tough Titans run defense up next week, he'll need to get back into the end zone or be more involved as a receiver to bounce back. [Back to Top](#top) [] 34. TEN: DeAndre Hopkins targeted eight times [Source: ESPN.com]() Tennessee Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins posted three receptions for just 27 yards on a team-high eight targets in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Our view: After a rousing three-touchdown outing in Will Levis's debut, Hopkins has come back to earth and looks like a low ceiling WR3/Flex. Levis has actually spread it around more than a typical rookie passer, but the quality of the passing game has decreased in every one of his starts. [Back to Top](#top) [] 35. NYG: Barkley runs for 66, catches one ball in blowout loss [Source: ESPN.com]() Saquon Barkley ran 13 times for 66 yards and caught only one of three targets for minus-5 yards. Our view: Barkley is by far the best thing in the Giants offense, but that's not saying much these days. The team teased putting him at wildcat quarterback, but didn't stick with the strategy. Hopefully Barkley will do more in a matchup with the suspect Washington defense next week. [Back to Top](#top) [] 36. WAS: Howell leans on running backs in last-second loss [Source: ESPN.com]() Sam Howell completed 29 of 44 pass attempts for 312 yards and three scores with no interceptions. Brian Robinson caught all six targets thrown his way for 119 yards and a score, and Antonio Gibson caught five of six for 42 yards and a score. Dyami Brown led the wide receivers with 41 yards and a score on two catches Our view: Howell smartly did not test the young athletic tall aggressive cornerback duo for the Seahawks and used his backs well in the passing game. The Commanders pass offense and Howell's fantasy stock are both surging heading into a matchup with the hapless Giants. [Back to Top](#top) That'll do it for today, Folks.
