CASH GAMES

Quarterbacks

C.J. Stroud ranks fourth in passing yards per game (277), 12th in passing yards per game (1.4), and leads a Texans offense that ranks 13th in EPA/Play. He has a favorable matchup against a Patriots defense that only ranks 22nd in EPA/Play Allowed and 23rd in Dropback EPA Allowed.

Kirk Cousins threw for 509 yards and 4 touchdowns last week and now gets a Panthers defense that literally ranks dead last in both EPA/Play Allowed and Dropback EPA Allowed.

Andy Dalton provides salary savings, ranks seventh in touchdown passes per game (1.6), and is in a good spot at home against a Falcons defense that only ranks 24th in EPA/Play Allowed and 22nd in Dropback EPA Allowed.

Running Backs

Saquon Barkley ranks fifth in opportunities per game (22), first in total yards per game (130), and fourth in total touchdowns (5). The Eagles are 8.5-point home favorites, and Barkley gets a Browns defense that ranks 20th in EPA/Play Allowed and 30th in Rush EPA Allowed.

Derrick Henry ranks eighth in opportunities per game (20.6), second in total yards per game (124.2), and first in total touchdowns (7). Commanders at Ravens is tied for the highest Over/Under (52.5) of the week and Henry gets a Commanders defense that ranks 25th in EPA/Play Allowed.

The absence of Derek Carr likely propels the Saints to lean more heavily on Alvin Kamara this week. He already ranks first in opportunities per game (23.8), third in total yards per game (120.4), and third in total touchdowns (6). Kamara is at home against a Buccaneers defense that only ranks 20th in EPA/Play Allowed and 23rd in Rush EPA Allowed.

David Montgomery ranks 18th in opportunities per game (18) and gets to attack a banged-up and struggling Cowboys defense that will be without both Micah Parsons and DeMarcus Lawrence and that only ranks 27th in EPA/Play Allowed and 28th in Rush EPA Allowed.

James Conner ranks 14th in opportunities per game (18.6), Cardinals at Packers has the third highest Over/Under (49.5) of the week, and Conner gets an average Packers run defense that ranks 18th in Rush EPA Allowed.

Rico Dowdle provides some salary savings and is coming off a game where he saw 22 opportunities and turned them into 114 total yards and 1 touchdown. Dowdle's role as the lead back in Dallas' offense is growing and despite the tough matchup, he's at home in a game tied for the highest Over/Under (52.5) of the week.
