NFL Week 3 has already delivered a flurry of both excitement and disappointment. We saw the Dolphins best the mighty Bills, the Jaguars upend the Chargers and even the struggling Broncos push past Jimmy Garoppolo and the 49ers.
The week wraps up tonight at MetLife Stadium as Ezekiel Elliott and the Cowboys take on Daniel Jones and the undefeated Giants on Monday Night Football. And best of all, you get the chance to make a few extra bucks playing the NFL DFS Showdown slate. The game total of 39 doesn't exactly inspire hope for a shootout, but as always in daily fantasy football it's not about how much scoring there is — it's whether or not you have the right guys around whom to build a winning DFS lineup.
MVP/Captain
The most important thing to focus on is the touches as head coach Brian Daboll is making sure he is putting the ball into the hands of his playmakers. Barkley saw 18 carries and seven targets in Week 1 and then 21 carries and four targets against Carolina last week. Expect him to dominate in touches again as the Cowboys may not have allowed a rushing touchdown yet this season, but they've allowed 120.5 rushing yards per game and rank 16th in DVOA against running back pass-plays. Look for a lot of TE-shifts to the weakside as New York looks to neutralize the speed of DeMarcus Lawrence and Micah Parsons.
