And we are off. Not sure all the fantasy teams are off to a great start, but the season is underway. It was a bit of an underwhelming Week 1 with so many top players struggling for fantasy teams. The Sunday night game kind of saved things, having a lot of big performances in that one. But overall, it was a slow start for many fantasy teams.

As always, it was just a week of action, but there is always something to learn from that week. Just don’t overreact just yet. It is a long season.

Eagles 24, Cowboys 20

Fantasy Stud: Javonte Williams. Williams didn’t pile up the yards but got about all the work at running back and scored two touchdowns. He ran 15 times for 54 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught two passes for 10 yards. It was an encouraging performance from Williams, who seems to have a firm grasp of the starting job in Dallas for now. His numbers should only get better in more favorable matchups

Fantasy Dud: A.J. Brown. Brown was the forgotten man in the Eagles offense, catching just a pass for eight yards. And that catch came very late in the game. We wouldn’t get too worked up about over just a game, but it was a little concerning. You just hope for much better from Brown, avoiding these stinker games.

Game Notes: CeeDee Lamb had a few bad drops but still hit the 100-yard receiving mark. He had seven receptions for 110 yards.

Jalen Hurts missed on just four passes and scored two rushing touchdowns, scoring 25.8 fantasy points. He was 19-of-23 for 152 yards and ran for 62 yards and two touchdowns.

Chargers 27, Chiefs 21

Fantasy Stud: Justin Herbert. Herbert played like an MVP, finishing 25-of-34 for 318 yards and three touchdowns without a turnover. He also ran for 32 yards. The Chargers aired it out early and often, showing you that aren’t necessarily the run-heavy offense most thought they would be. Herbert could be setup for a huge season, especially if his receivers continue to play this well

Fantasy Dud: Isiah Pacheco. Pacheco looked like the Pacheco from last season once again. He ran five times for 25 yards and caught two passes for three yards. He had as many carries as backup Kareem Hunt in the game. It was not the start fantasy owners wanted to see from a guy they were hoping would rebound in a big way.

Game Notes: Xavier Worthy injured his shoulder very early in the game and was unable to return. He is going to miss some time with this injury, leaving the Chiefs even more thin at receiver.

Quentin Johnston got little hype this offseason after his disappointing rookie year, but looked great in Week 1. He led the Chargers in receiving, catching five passes for 79 yards and two touchdowns.

Colts 33, Dolphins 8

Fantasy Stud: Daniel Jones. Jones had a great first start with the Colts. He was 22-of-29 for 272 yards and a touchdown without a turnover. He also ran in two scores, rushing seven times for 29 yards. Jones scored 32.2 fantasy points and showed he can be a usable fantasy option. He should be a hot item on waivers this week

Fantasy Dud: Tyreek Hill. Hill had four receptions for just 40 yards. It was a fitting start to his season, considering all the turmoil surrounding him this offseason. You have to wonder how long he lasts in Miami if this team keeps struggling.

Game Notes: Jaylen Waddle injured his shoulder in the game but was able to return. It did not look good at the time of the injury. He had four receptions for 30 yards.

Rookie tight end Tyler Warren was a huge part of the passing game, leading the team in receptions. He had seven receptions for 76 yards.

Bengals 17, Browns 16

Fantasy Stud: Cedric Tillman. Tillman made some big plays in this one, catching five passes for 52 yards and a touchdown. He is going to start in this offense and should get his chances in what can be a pass-heavy scheme. It was a great start for Tillman

Fantasy Dud: Ja’Marr Chase. Chase was the first overall pick in many drafts this year but didn’t play like that top pick in this one. He was really held in check, which is rare. He had just two receptions for 26 yards. It was an unexpected showing from Chase. He should be fine going forward but this was a disappointing start.

Game Notes: Dylan Sampson led the way in the Browns backfield. He had 12 receptions for 29 yards and caught eight passes for 64 yards. Jerome Ford had six carries for eight yards.

Rookie Harold Fannin was a big part of the Browns offense. He had more catches than starter David Njoku, finishing with seven receptions for 63 yards.

Cardinals 20, Saints 13

Fantasy Stud: Marvin Harrison. Harrison had a good start to his season, especially if you consider his season last year. He had five receptions for 71 yards and a touchdown. Maybe this is the game that gets Harrison going for a big year two. Harrison certainly has the potential to produce big as the No. 1 receiver

Fantasy Dud: Michael Wilson. Wilson got some play this week because of a favorable matchup but he didn’t help anyone that used him. He had just a catch for five yards. Wilson is going to be a tough fantasy play in an offense that has a lot of weapons ahead of him for targets right now.

Game Notes: Trey Benson had fewer carries but led the Cardinals in rushing. He ran eight times for 69 yards while James Conner had 12 carries for 39 yards.

Juwan Johnson led the Saints in receiving. He had eight receptions for 76 yards.

Steelers 34, Jets 32

Fantasy Stud: Justin Fields. There were a lot of great fantasy performances in this one, but we’ll give the nod to Fields. He was 16-of-22 for 217 yards and a touchdown without a turnover. He also ran 12 times for 48 yards and two touchdowns. Fields put up 31.7 fantasy points. He showed his big-time fantasy potential in the game

Fantasy Dud: Mason Taylor. There were few disappointing fantasy performances but Taylor was not much of a factor, which was a surprise. He had just a catch for 20 yards. Don’t give up on him just yet but you hoped for much better from a player that generated a lot of buzz this training camp.

Game Notes: Breece Hall hit the 100-yard rushing mark, rushing 19 times for 107 yards. He also has two receptions for 38 yards.

Aaron Rodgers looked like the Rodgers of old, going 22-of-30 for 244 yards and four touchdowns without a turnover.

Raiders 20, Patriots 13

Fantasy Stud: Jakobi Meyers. Meyers was the go-to target for the Raiders once again. He had eight receptions for 97 yards. Meyers has a chance to really rack up the receptions in this offense, especially if Brock Bowers has to miss any time

Fantasy Dud: TreVeyon Henderson. Henderson led the Patriots in rushing but didn’t get as much playing time as you would like. He had five carries for 27 yards and five receptions for 11 yards. The only positive for Henderson was starter Rhamondre Stevenson averaged a dismal 2.1 yards per carry. Henderson could be the starter before long in New England.

Game Notes: Brock Bowers had a 100-yard performance but left the game early because of a knee injury. This is a concern. He had five receptions for 103 yards before the injury.

Stefon Diggs played in his first game since tearing his ACL. Diggs looked good, finishing with six receptions for 57 yards. The knee didn’t seem to be an issue at all for Diggs.

Commanders 21, Giants 6

Fantasy Stud: Deebo Samuel. Samuel played a strong game in his first one with the Commanders. He led the team in receiving, having seven catches for 77 yards. He also had a 19-yard touchdown run. Samuel has a chance to get a lot of weekly touches in this offense

Fantasy Dud: Russell Wilson. Wilson had a poor showing, going 17-of-37 for just 168 yards without a touchdown. Wilson is going to need improve his play if he hopes to keep rookie Jaxson Dart off the field. The Giants offense looked terrible in this one.

Game Notes: Jacory Croskey-Merritt lived up to the preseason buzz, leading the Commanders in rushing. He had 10 carries for 82 yards and a touchdown.

Jayden Daniels played a solid game in victory, throwing for 233 yards and a touchdown without an interception. He ran 11 times for 67 yards, scoring 22.4 fantasy points.

Bucs 23, Falcons 20

Fantasy Stud: Bijan Robinson. Robinson showed why he is such a valuable fantasy player. He didn’t do anything rushing the ball but that didn’t slow him from having a huge fantasy game. He had six receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown to make up for his poor rushing total. He had 12 carries for just 24 yards but still managed to score 24.4 fantasy points

Fantasy Dud: Bucky Irving. We know Irving scored and his overall fantasy numbers weren’t terrible but you expected much better. He had 14 carries for just 37 yards, averaging just 2.6 yards per carry. And he had four receptions but managed just eight yards. He did score a receiving touchdown, helping salvage an otherwise poor fantasy performance.

Game Notes: Drake London was banged up very late in the game and was unable to return. He had eight receptions for 55 yards before getting hurt.

Emeka Ebuka had four receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown. He also ran one for nine yards, having a big rookie debut.

Jaguars 26, Panthers 10

Fantasy Stud: Travis Etienne. Etienne made a strong case to remain the top back in Jacksonville. He had a huge opener, rushing 16 times for 143 yards. He also caught three passes for 13 yards, giving him 156 total yards. This is his backfield for now

Fantasy Dud: Bryce Young. Young did not do a good job of capitalizing on his strong finish to last year. He looked a lot more like the quarterback from earlier last season. He struggled, turning the ball over three times. He was 18-of-35 for 154 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions and a lost fumble. It was a really disappointing start in what looked like a favorable matchup for Young.

Game Notes: Chuba Hubbard had his usual solid game, racking up 89 total yards and a touchdown on 19 touches (16 rushes and three receptions).

Rookie Travis Hunter played primarily on offense and actually led the Jaguars in receptions. He had six receptions for 33 yards.

49ers 17, Seahawks 13

Fantasy Stud: Christian McCaffrey. His calf injury was clearly a non-issue. He got a big workout, rushing 22 times for 69 yards. He also caught nine passes for 73 yards, giving him 23.2 fantasy points.  You just hope that McCaffrey can stay healthy. He is going to have a huge season if he can stay on the field

Fantasy Dud: Kenneth Walker. Walker had 10 carries for just 20 yards and caught three passes for four yards. He had two fewer carries than Zach Charbonnet, who finished with 47 rushing yards in the game. It was not the start fantasy teams wanted to see from Walker.

Game Notes: George Kittle was injured very early in the game. He left with a hamstring injury and was unable to return. Jake Tonges played in his place and had three receptions for 15 yards and the game-winning touchdown.

Ricky Pearsall hit the 100-yard mark. He had four receptions for 108 yards. He is the top target at receiver for the 49ers right now.

Packers 27, Lions 13

Fantasy Stud: Jayden Reed. There weren’t a lot of big fantasy performances but Reed played well, especially since he came into the game a little banged up. He had three receptions for 45 yards and a touchdown. He had 13.5 fantasy points. As long as he can stay healthy. Reed can play a big role in the Packers passing game

Fantasy Dud: Amon-Ra St. Brown. There were a lot Lions that were duds in this one but St. Brown stands out above the rest. He had just four receptions for 45 yards. It was a really slow start for St. Brown, being held to less than 50 yards. He should be fine going forward but the entire offense struggled, which is a tad concerning if you consider all the turnover they had this offseason.

Game Notes: Jahmyr Gibbs ran nine times for just 19 yards. He did have 10 receptions but just 31 receiving yards on those catches. So Gibbs finished with 50 yards on 19 touches.

Jordan Love played a great game, finishing 16-of-22 for 188 yards and two touchdowns without a turnover. It was a clean game for Love, winning a big one against a division rival.

Rams 14, Texans 9

Fantasy Stud: Puka Nacua. There was some thought that the addition of Davante Adams could really impact Nacua. Well, that wasn’t the case, at least in Week 1. Nacua had 10 receptions for 130 yards. It was a great showing for the talented receiver, who seems setup for another big season in Los Angeles.

Fantasy Dud: Nico Collins. Collins was really held in check, catching just three passes for 25 yards. The entire Texans passing game struggled once again, which was the case last year. This was not a good start for the passing game or Collins. There is a little concern going forward in this entire unit.

Game Notes: Nick Chubb had the most carries in the Texans backfield. He had 13 carries for 60 yards. He seems to have the job as the No. 1 back in Houston - for now.

Matthew Stafford didn’t seem too bothered by his back injury, which sidelined him nearly all of training camp. He was 21-of-29 for 245 yards and a touchdown without a turnover.

Broncos 20, Titans 12

Fantasy Stud: Courtland Sutton. Sutton had six receptions for 61 yards and a touchdown. He clearly has a great rapport with Bo Nix and seems setup for a big season in this offense. Sutton is going to get a lot of weekly targets

Fantasy Dud: Bo Nix. Nix had his struggles, turning the ball over three times. He forced some passes, making some bad mistakes. He was 25-of-40 for 176 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions. Hopefully, this was just a bad showing for Nix. He can get much better.

Game Notes: J.K. Dobbins led the Broncos backfield in carries, rushing 16 times for 63 yards and a touchdown. Rookie RJ Harvey actually led the team in rushing, though, running six times for 70 yards.

Cam Ward had a tough first game, going just 12-of-28 for 112 yards without a touchdown or an interception against a really good Broncos defense.

Bills 41, Ravens 40

Fantasy Stud: Josh Allen. There were huge performers all over the place in this one. Allen was the best, though. He was 33-of-46 for 394 yards and two touchdowns without a turnover. He also ran in two scores, rushing 14 times for 31 yards and two touchdowns. Allen scored a remarkable 42.8 fantasy points. He looked like an MVP out there, leading his team to a huge comeback victory

Fantasy Dud: Mark Andrews. Nearly every offensive player had a big game, but Andrews wasn’t one of them. He had just a catch for five yards. He was a forgotten man this week. This won’t be the case every week, but it could happen again in an offense with so many weapons.

Game Notes: Derrick Henry ran 18 times for 175 yards and two touchdowns. He was nearly unstoppable but a late fumble really hurt his team.

Keon Coleman lived up to the offseason hype, finishing with eight receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown. He was the top target for Allen when it mattered most down the stretch.
