Eleven teams put up at least 26 points, and plenty of big-time Fantasy studs came through. Our daily Fantasy Football Today podcast includes a must-watch Sunday night livestream every single week when the late afternoon games end. It's our chance to react to what happened across the league and give an initial prognosis on what will happen moving forward.
It's a great place to celebrate ... or commiserate. So while there are far more than two winners and two losers from this week's games, here are the two winners and two losers I gave on our show. Please keep in mind: I never share "winners" who are obvious studs (like Jahmyr Gibbs), and I never share "losers" who are obvious bench guys (like what Bo Nix has become).
He started in 48% of leagues, a number that will rise quickly with TreVeyon Henderson sidelined for who knows how long. Rhamondre Stevenson ran for 4.9 yards per carry, caught three passes and scored one touchdown. He remains New England's back for passing downs and goal‑line plays as long as he keeps the ball -- and that'll be the case even when Henderson plays.
A big reason to keep Stevenson in high regard is his upcoming seven-game schedule. After a bye week, Stevenson will play the Jets, Bears, Dolphins, Packers, Lions, Chargers and Bills. This schedule is fantasy-friendly.
Stevenson should perform as a reliable RB2 with some RB1 potential. Like Stevenson, Marks took advantage of the opportunities created by the injury to his teammate. With David Montgomery sidelined with a groin injury, Marks handled almost every single RB snap and gave the Texans something they haven't had much of this year: rushing efficiency!
Sure, the opponent had something to do with that, and the Texans' upcoming schedule has plenty of tough matchups in it. But after back-to-back weeks with short-yardage touchdowns and a big workload this past game, it's clear the Texans coaching staff sees something in Marks. That trust should yield the lion's share of touches in the Texans offense even when Montgomery comes back.
