CeeDee Lamb Week 9 Outlook - Cowboys at Falcons

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Oct 31st 2024, 1:01am EDT

Though I alluded to it last week, I cannot say for sure that CeeDee Lamb will repeat this year what he did last season from Week 8 on. But he flashed some of that upside last week despite Dallas losing to the San Francisco 49ers. Lamb hauled in 13 catches for 146 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. Lamb should have the opportunity to build on that performance in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta has been a bottom-10 pass defense in most metrics, including ranking 26th in DVOA versus number-one receivers. It is safe to say Lamb qualifies considering he has 48.2 percent of all yardage accrued by Cowboys wide receivers this year. Lamb is a locked and loaded overall WR1 candidate this week.
