Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Bijan Robinson

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught five of his eight targets for 125 yards in their victory over the Chicago Bears. This was a new season-high in yards for the Ohio State product. His longest reception of the day came off a 61-yard pass. After struggling through the first two weeks, McLaurin has averaged an impressive 18.0 PPR points per game since. During this stretch, he eclipsed 100 yards on three occasions and caught at least five passes in all but one game. Fantasy managers should continue to view McLaurin as a high-end WR2 heading into Week 9 when he faces the New York Giants, who have allowed the 13th-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had a productive day in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers, carrying the ball 13 times for 63 yards while adding six catches for 37 yards and a score. The 22-year-old ceded 12 rush attempts to backfield mate Tyler Allgeier but was clearly the preferred option of the two in the passing game. It was the third consecutive game in which the second-year back recorded at least one TD and at least 100 total yards, producing like the fantasy asset he was drafted to be. With the Falcons offense clicking and the Cowboys defense struggling, having allowed 77 points over their last two games alone, Robinson and company look to have a favorable matchup again in Week 9.
