Dak Prescott A Must-Start QB1 Vs Cardinals In Week 8

Friday, October 30, 10:57 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott should not be left out of starting lineups in any fantasy football leagues in Week 8. He gets a home matchup with the Arizona Cardinals, who are simply a bad team with a bad defense that's been torn to shreds by opposing quarterbacks this season. If you simply started the QB that faced Arizona each week, you'd have gotten an average of 22.3 fantasy points per game, which would rank as the No. 2 overall quarterback in fantasy football if it were done by one player. The Cardinals are abysmal against the pass, allowing nearly eight yards per pass attempt to opposing QBs. That's a recipe for disaster against an excellent passing offense with two high-quality WRs. Prescott should comfortably eclipse the 20-point mark, making him a lineup lock in all leagues for Week 8.

Kyler Murray Plays Through Hamstring Tightness in Week 8 Loss

Sunday, November 1, 1:48 PM

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) experienced tightness during the fourth quarter of Sunday's 19-15 loss to the Detroit Lions, according to ESPN's Kevin Seifert. Head coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed the issue after the game, while Murray indicated it occurred late enough that it didn't significantly affect his performance. The 29-year-old spent time in the blue medical tent before returning to finish the contest. Murray completed 17 of 29 passes for 210 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception, adding 35 rushing yards on four carries. The Vikings host the Buffalo Bills on Monday, November 9, with Murray's hamstring expected to receive further evaluation.
