Week 7 brought many ups and downs with players. My predictions turned out pretty well and I ended up going 5/8. Here are the results:
Starts:
Ezekiel Elliott: Predicted - 16.4, Actual: 17.7: Zeke exceeded expectations and tallied 57 yards and 2 touchdowns. He was used heavily in the redzone and produced well
Brandon Cooks: Predicted - 14.2, Actual: 8.6: Cooks had a disappointing week as the texans heavily ran the ball and got blown out against the Raiders. He is a risky fantasy option going forward.
Joe Burrow: Predicted - 20.8, Actual: 39.24: Burrow blew up for the second week in a row almost scoring 40 points. He has been a gun slinger this season and his receivers have truly benefited from it as well.
Pat Freiermuth: Predicted - 13.6, Actual: 15.5: Muth picked up right where he left off after his injury scoring a great 15.5 points. He would have had more if Pickett didn't throw as many interceptions, but you can be more than happy with 15.5 from your TE.
Sits:
Clyde Edwards-Helaire: Predicted - 9.5, Actual: 9.2: CEH is currently in a battle for his position with multiple other capable running backs. He had a disappointing week as expected and does not look to be a great fantasy option in the future.
Jerry Jeudy: Predicted - 11.1, Actual: 16.6: Jeudy moved past his low projection, even with a backup quarterback throwing to him. His fantasy value from now on is still unclear.
Trevor Lawrence: Predicted - 14.3, Actual: 18.7: Lawrence also exceeded expectations scoring over 18 points last week. This is because he had a rushing touchdown which is unlikely to hold up going into the next weeks.
Noah Fant: Predicted - 7.8, Actual: 1.7: Fant did worse than his low to begin with expectations. Even in a blowout game where the Seahawks nearly put up 40 points, fantasy still had a very bad game.
