Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II completed 24 of 30 passes for 209 yards and a touchdown in the Raiders' 20-27 loss to the rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8. He also lost one fumble on a sack. In typical Raiders fashion, they drove down the field and scored on their first drive of the game before their offense stalled. They couldn't get much of anything else going until a garbage-time drive for another touchdown near the end of the game. Minshew looked better than he did in Week 7, when he turned the ball over four times, but he didn't give Las Vegas a spark and padded his stats in the fourth quarter. He'll start again in Week 9 when the Raiders take on the Cincinnati Bengals, and he'll still profile as a starting option in fantasy football only for 2QB leagues.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman caught seven of his nine targets for 99 yards and two touchdowns in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Tillman turned in his second strong outing in a row since the trade of Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills ahead of Week 7. The second-year wideout's second touchdown was the game-winner as he got wide open behind the Baltimore defense and hauled in a 38-yard score from Jameis Winston to give the Browns a 29-24 lead with 1:04 left in the fourth quarter. Tillman is quickly becoming a solid WR2 in fantasy and should be in all starting lineups heading into Week 9's matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
