Game Recaps


Bucky Irving carried the ball 12 times for 87 yards and a touchdown while catching all six of his targets for 64 yards in a 30-7 win over the Giants in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact: Irving scored one of four rushing touchdowns in the blowout win. He also surprisingly outproduced Rachaad White in the passing game as White caught just one pass for 10 yards. Irving has taken over the Tampa Bay backfield and should have a monster game against a weak Panthers run defense in Week 13.


Baker Mayfield completed 24 of his 30 passes for 294 yards and added four carries for 29 yards and a touchdown in a 30-7 win over the Giants in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact: Mayfield was unable to throw for any touchdowns and also fumbled twice but it didn't matter against a struggling Giants team. The Buccaneers did all of their damage on the ground as they racked up four rushing touchdowns in the blowout win. Mayfield has struggled a bit over his past two games as he has thrown for just one touchdown over that span. A rock-solid QB2 in fantasy, Mayfield will look to bounce back in Week 13 against the Panthers.


Sam Darnold completed 22-of-34 pass attempts for 330 yards and two touchdowns in the Vikings' 30-27 Week 12 win over the Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Darnold continues a strong stretch behind center, throwing multiple touchdowns in four of the last five games for the Vikings. The signal-caller will look to continue to guide the diverse Minnesota offense against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13.


The Cowboys D/ST allowed 26 points, 275 passing yards, and 145 rushing yards in the win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: The Cowboys' defense tallied four sacks and two interceptions in the win. The special teams turned in an excellent fourth quarter, scoring on a 43-yard and 99-yard kickoff return to seal the game for Dallas. They will have a favorable matchup on Thursday against the Giants.


Brandon Aubrey converted on 2-of-4 field goals and 4-of-4 extra points in the 34-26 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: Aubrey had a field goal blocked and one that he missed from 42-yards out. It was an uncharacteristically sloppy performance from Aubrey and the field goal unit. He will look to bounce back against the Giants in Week 13.


Jordan Addison hauled in eight of his nine targets for 162 yards and one touchdown in the Vikings' 30-27 Week 12 win over the Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Addison has had a nose for the end zone of late, catching a touchdown in three of the last four games for the Vikings. The second-year wideout will look to keep the end zone streak going against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13.


Luke Schoonmaker caught 3-of-4 targets for 55 yards and a touchdown in the Cowboys 34-26 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: Schoonmaker saw an uptick in playing time with Jake Ferguson dealing with a concussion. If Ferguson is able to be cleared from the league's concussion protocol, Schoonmaker will see a drop in playing time in Week 13.


T.J. Hockenson hauled in seven of his nine targets for 114 yards in the Vikings' 30-27 win over the Bears in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact: Hockenson benefited from a Chicago defense focused on shutting down superstar wideout Justin Jefferson, recording at least seven receptions on nine targets in two of the last three games. The versatile tight end should be kept in lineups, with a Week 13 contest against the Arizona Cardinals up next.


Jalen Tolbert caught 2-of-4 targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in the Cowboys 34-26 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: Tolbert found the end zone on a six-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter to give Dallas the lead. Fantasy managers should view Tolbert as a flex option heading into a favorable matchup against the Giants in Week 13.


CeeDee Lamb caught 10-of-12 targets for 67 yards in the Cowboys 34-26 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: Lamb led the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yards. Lamb has appeared to already build a strong rapport with backup quarterback Cooper Rush. They will look to continue to build on this momentum against the Giants in Week 13.


Rico Dowdle rushed for 86 yards on 19 yards in the Cowboys 34-26 win over the Commanders. He caught 3-of-3 targets for 12 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Dowdle turned in his best performance on the ground since the Cowboys' win over the Steelers. He will look to build on this momentum in Week 13 against a Giants' defense that has struggled mightily against the run.


Aaron Jones carried the ball 22 times for 106 yards and one touchdown while also catching three of his four targets for 23 yards in the Vikings' 30-27 win over the Bears in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact: Jones returned to form for the Minnesota backfield, reaching the end zone for the first time in his last five games while also eclipsing 100 yards on the ground in the win. The running back will look for another strong outing for fantasy managers against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13.


Cooper Rush completed 24-of-32 pass attempts for 247 yards and two touchdowns in the Cowboys 34-26 win over the Commanders.

Fantasy Impact: Rush found Luke Schoonmaker and Jalen Tolbert for his two touchdown passes in the win Sunday. Rush played well and avoided any costly turnovers. The Cowboys will look to string together a pair of wins when they take on the Giants on Thursday.


The Commanders D/ST allowed 34 points, 247 passing yards, and 91 rushing yards in the loss to Dallas.

Fantasy Impact: The Commanders' defense tallied one sack and one fumble recovery in the loss Sunday. They will take on the Titans in Week 13 as the defense will look to get back on track after three straight tough losses.


Justin Jefferson hauled in two of his five targets for 27 yards in the Vikings' 30-27 Week 12 win over the Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Jefferson was taken out of the offensive game plan by the Chicago defense Sunday, opting to allow Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson to catch a combined 15 passes for 276 yards and one touchdown. The superstar wideout remains locked in as a WR1 option for fantasy managers in all formats ahead of a Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.


Austin Seibert converted on 2-of-3 field goal attempts and 0-of-2 extra point attempts in the Commanders 34-26 loss to Dallas.

Fantasy Impact: Seibert converted on field goals from 41 and 51 yards out in the loss Sunday. Unfortunately for Seibert, he missed an extra point that would have tied the game on an improbable 86-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter. After his struggles, the Commanders could begin to look for new options at kicker heading into Week 13.


Cam Akers carried the ball three times for 19 yards while also catching his only target for six yards in the Vikings' 30-27 win over the Bears in Week 12.

Fantasy Impact: Akers has struggled to make a substantial impact out of the Minnesota backfield, finishing with less than 50 rushing yards in each of the last five games. The running back should only be rostered as a handcuff for Aaron Jones owners ahead of a Week 13 contest against the Arizona Cardinals.


Zach Ertz caught 6-of-8 targets for 38 yards in the Commanders 34-26 loss to Dallas.

Fantasy Impact: Ertz found the end zone on a four-yard reception in the fourth quarter as the Commanders were attempting a late comeback. The veteran tight end tied Noah Brown for the team lead in receptions. Fantasy managers should feel comfortable starting Ertz against the Titans in Week 13.


Johnny Mundt caught his only target for seven yards in the Vikings' 30-27 Week 12 win over the Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Mundt remains an afterthought on offense of late, recording one reception or less in five consecutive games for the Vikings. The tight end should not be rostered with T.J. Hockenson healthy, with a Week 13 contest against the Arizona Cardinals ahead.


Jalen Nailor caught one of his two targets for just five yards and one touchdown in the Vikings' 30-27 Week 12 win over the Bears.

Fantasy Impact: Nailor has made the most of minimal involvement in the Minnesota passing game, finding the end zone in two of the last four games despite finishing with less than two receptions in each of those four contests. The wideout remains a touchdown dependent option that is difficult to trust in lineups until further notice ahead of a Week 13 contest against the Arizona Cardinals.
