Throughout the 2023 season, each NFL Network analyst will make bold predictions for the weekly game schedule (see the complete Week 4 schedule).
There is nothing like a good old revenge game. Ezekiel Elliott, who spent the first seven years of his career in Dallas, will play against the ‘Boys for the first time on Sunday. Would you ignore Bill Belichick and give Zeke some chances to beat his former club? I would never do that.
Especially maintaining their strength against Dallas’ offense, which has fought in the red zone since the start of the year. Elliott would score two touchdowns in his return to Jerry World.
Stefon Diggs eclipsed his career all-time record (162 yards) as a member of the Buffalo Bills, but he finished second to Tyreek Hill in receiving yards against the Dolphins on Sunday. It will be an absolute points festival.
Diggs was a strong presence against Miami last season, scoring at least nine goals in all three games. Hill has a history of success against the Bills, and fans still have nightmares about him holding up the peace sign during a heartbreaking divisional round game a few seasons ago. Both players will undoubtedly produce one of the best matches of 2023.
Cleveland sack artist Myles Garrett ranks third in the NFL in QB takedowns with 4.5 after getting 3.5 in last week’s win over Tennessee. Now, let us up the stakes. Garrett defeated the electric Lamar Jackson five times, more than doubling his season total.
Darren Waller is only TE8 after three weeks of action, but the Seahawks’ defense ranks tied for 14th. However, numbers that do not come with context are said to be misleading. This Seattle defense is still the group that allowed the second-most points among tight ends in 2022.
He has not played against an elite tight end yet this season, but he has allowed the sixth-most receiving yards among players at her position through three games.
Waller has been a very good player this season if we should have accounted for over 20 percent of her team’s targets, air yards, as red zone targets. He had a wonderful performance with the Giants on Monday Night Football, finished Week 4 as TE1, and he might win a number of fantasy matches.
So far this season, we have only seen a tip of the Steelers’ deep passing attack. In Sunday’s game they played with the Texans, offensive coordinator Matt Canada ran an offense that had Kenny Pickett and George Pickens rushing for 200 yards and two touchdowns.
Davante Adams and Keenan Allen have only been on the roster for a week and are two of the best WRs in fantasy. They will face off in a district showdown Sunday at SoFi. He totaled 30 catches for 300 yards and three touchdowns and is ready for an encore.
With Mike Williams out for the season, Allen is the favorite to lead the league in receptions. Even with Jimmy Garoppolo, Axel Edwards, Brian Hoyer (yes), and Aidan O’Connell under center, Adams will become the center of Las Vegas. Prepare for fireworks.
