Bench
  • Averaging 153 yards and is a coinflip to even get one score. Arizona has been middle of the pack against QBs

WR53 Elic Ayomanor 15 2.53 5.27 31 0.27 13%
bench
  • His biggest game this year is 4-56. He's scored twice, but the Titans have had trouble getting in the red zone with just 19 red zone targets for the team in 4 games
  • Ayomanor leads the team in targets and has 5+ every week. It's a low bar, but 5 receivers had double digit PPR days against the Cards.
  • Of note, he'll get 2nd round rookie corner Will Johnson returning from his groin injury. He was lights out in week 1 and decent in week 2 before missing the last 2 weeks. He is PFF's 9th graded cornerback.
  • He leads the team in end zone targets

WR109 Calvin Ridley 7 2.43 5.14 43.29 0 26%
bench
  • Was dealing with a wrist injury that caused Lockett to play more and Ridley to play just half the snaps and just 2 catches
  • His fantasy stats have been worse the Ayomanor in 3 out of 4 weeks, and week 1 AyoManor should have beat him, but led the league in unrealized air yards and Cam Ward couldn't connect.

  • Gunnar Helm continues to dig into Chig's snaps, and Chig saw just one catch last week. They have mentioned getting helm more work

RB22 Tony Pollard 16 14.25 64.63 0.31 1.88 2.38 11.81 0 87%
C
  • The last 3 backfields have gone over 100+ yards and the Cardinals have allowed a RB score every week.
  • Pollard is averaging 19+ touches and the other backs haven't had more than 2 touches in any game.
  • Tajae Spears is practicing, but no word on him playing or eating into that for this week yet.
  • Pollard has 5 catches in the last 2 games and over 35% of the fantasy points backs have scored on the Cards are in the pass game. Maybe that part of his game ramps up here as well.
  • That said, Pollard has only been targeted 9 times this season in 4 games

QB38 Kyler Murray 5 5 22 32.2 192.4 1.2 0.6 5.8 34.6 0.2 49%
C
  • He's getting 3-4 points rushing weekly and 1-2 scores through the air weekly. The issue is he's averaging 185 passing yards. Only one game over 200 yards passing.
  • Titans are only allowing 233 yards and 1.5 scores on average to opposing passers, teams get ahead and can run. Weirdly those averages are better than Murray's.
  • As nearly double digit favorites, expect Murrays pass attempts to be even lower

WR45 Marvin Harrison Jr. 12 3.42 6.08 50.67 0.33 91%
B
  • Non-Marvin Harrison WRs for the cardinals have not hit 8 PPR points yet this year. That's a pretty low bar you would have expected even one outlier game.
  • Lead receivers against the Cards average 6-76 and are a coin flip to score. Titans have allowed a WR score every week and that feels like it would be Harrison.
  • Will get the L'jarious Sneeed shadow, which has been hit and miss this year.

A
  • The Cards are top 10 against fantasy TEs, but their only test was Tyler Warren.
  • double digit fantasy points every week, and with the backfield depth down, may pick up a little extra work.
  • Only Bowers has a higher target share at TE

TACOM
  • You'd have to have cerano / jobu level balls to start Michael Carter, but as mentioned, it's a great matchup, and the game script could lead to a lot of RB touches. There is a non-zero chance that Demarcado takes his normal role in the offense and Carter simply becomes the runner, running down the game later.
  • taking first team snaps in practice, told beat reporters he was told he was the starter although the team claims they'll split with emari and bam knight
RB66 Emari Demercado 12 3.5 23.58 0 1 1.58 6.08 0.08 11%
C
  • With Conner and Benson now out, Emari Demarcado is next man up. They may address the backfield, but for now pass catching back Emari Demarcado gets the chance.
  • Titans have allowed 4th most to fantasy backs and just last week we saw Woody Marks go off and especially in the pass game, an area Emari is great at.
  • At least for this week, prefer the pass catching back who routinely gets more run than Michael Carter
