The Eagles defense limited him in Week 1 but that was his worst game of the season and also his first game with this offense. Since then, he's put on a career year, 2nd in the league in receiving yards. The Eagles defense does rank 2nd best in DVOA vs. the #1 WR but luckily, Ceedee Lamb is back and will certainly help to stretch the defense. Pickens is putting up #1 WR numbers, but we can feel better about calling him a #2 when you consider the Eagles are allowing the 5th most targets a game to the #2 WR. He's averaging 90+ yards a game, leading the team in deep targets and has cashed this line in all but two of 10 games.

Drake Maye has cashed this over in all but one of the last seven games and all but three of 11 this season. He's averaging just under 258 and is now facing a historically bad Bengals defense allowing the 2nd most attempts and the 4th most yards (264+). Joe Burrow possibly being under center for the Bengals helps us even more, game script-wise. Even with the blowout wins and the wins where he played a bit sloppy, Maye has cashed this.

The Bears are at home with momentum, coming off three straight wins. Caleb Williams had one of his worst games last week against the Vikings and they still pulled out the win. The defense kept Minnesota out of the end zone until the fourth quarter and they should have success again this week. They're either facing a 41-year old QB with a fractured wrist or Mason Rudolph. On defense, the Steelers have key players banged up -- CB Darius Slay is out, LB Alex Highsmith is doubtful and DT Cam Heyward is questionable. The Steelers are one of the least profitable teams on the road (1-3 ATS.) The Bears should win this and go 4-1 at home.

The Jets were already allowing the 6th most RB rush attempts a game (24+) and now are without the best run defender in the NFL in Quinnen Williams. He had the best run grade at his position and was in the 99th percentile in run stop rate. Without him, the Jets will take on Derrick Henry who is averaging 20+ attempts over the last 5 weeks, cashing 18 or more attempts in each week. Plus, they're 13.5 point favorites ... so there should be plenty of volume game-script wise.

The Bulls are on the second night of a back to back after a double overtime loss in Utah. They're now playing in the elevation of Denver on the fifth road game in a 6 game stretch. They will be without their top scorer in Coby White (calf) against a Denver defense that is one of the best in the NBA, allowing the third fewest points. They're also playing at a bottom 7 pace -- they should control the tempo, slow down the game and help us cash this Bulls TT under.

The Seahawks rank among the worst in EPA per play against tight ends by a wide margin, allowing the most catches (7.11) and third most targets (9.33). Tight ends have had 3 or more catches in 9 of 10 weeks against Seattle and now the team faced a Rams offense that has the third most tight end usage over the last four weeks. They have the highest tight end target share over the last three games with 40 targets. Plus, Higbee has been consistent -- catching over 75% of his targets the last four games. He has cashed this line in four straight and should cash again here in a back-and-forth game script.

When the Chargers offense is clicking, it's hard to stop them. They outscored the Vikings, Titans, Steelers 89-40 over the last three weeks and should have no problem continuing that dominance this week. This Jags defense just let Davis Mills put up 36 points after the Raiders put up 29 on them following trading away their top receiver. The Jags are allowing the fifth highest redzone scoring percentage and the 2nd most passing touchdowns a game. Herbert has his full arsenal of weapons healthy and should tear up this secondary, leading the squad to their sixth straight 23+ point game.

These two teams score among the fewest points in the league and we should see that continue here. The Saints were able to hold Bryce Young in check last week -- 124 yards, no touchdowns and a pick. The Falcons should have no problem doing the same, if not better. They are allowing the fewest passing yards a game and have one of the highest pressure rates on opposing QBs. As for the Falcons offense -- they haven't scored more than 25 points in 5 straight weeks and only once all season. I don't see where the points come from here, under is the play.

Tucker Kraft is the Packers leading receiver, with the 6th highest target share of any TE. Head coach Matt LaFleur talked in the offseason about giving Kraft more opportunities in the intermediate and deep parts of the field and we're seeing that early. Last season he had 10 total targets of 10+ yards and this season he already has 7 through 6 games. He's averaging over 14 yards a catch, coming off a 10 target game, and we've already seen what the ceiling can look like with a 124 yard game vs. the Commanders in Week 2. The Steelers are allowing over 8 targets and 6 catches a game to tight ends, resulting in the 5th most yards (67.17).

The Cowboys have found real momentum on offense — leading the league in yards per game and averaging over six yards per play. They’ve also been one of the most efficient teams in the red zone, scoring the second-most points per game (31.7). Dallas has hit this team total in all but one of its last six games, with Dak Prescott throwing at least three touchdowns in four straight. He ranks 3rd in DVOA vs. man coverage, facing a Denver defense that is fist in frequency of man coverage. The Broncos’ defense has been stout, but their Week 7 performance against the Giants exposed plenty of busted coverages and missed tackles. They've allowed the 7th highest red zone scoring % over the last three weeks.

Goedert has had 23 targets the last three weeks, with the 4th highest tight end target share. The Giants allow over 9 targets a game to tight ends (fourth most) and 6 catches a game. With no AJ Brown on the field, he should have a big showing on TE Day.

Drake Maye is third in MVP odds, as he should be. He's leading the league in completion % and passer rating with over 91% completion percentage last week against the Titans. He his first in catchable air yards, has the best % on 20+ yard plays and leads the NFL in DVOA against man coverage -- which Cleveland schemes at the 11th highest rate.

The Jets are allowing over 26 points a game and now have Sauce Gardner and Cam Jones out. They've allowed five teams to cash this and now get a Flacco-led Bengals team who has cashed their team total in every home game, with the 3rd most points a game at home.

Dillon Gabriel makes his second start, and as we know, tight ends are a rookie QB's best friend. Last week, Njoku posted his highest target total of the season with nine, catching six passes for 67 yards and his first touchdown of the year. He nearly had more receptions than any other teammate had targets. This week’s matchup is ideal — the Steelers are surrendering over five catches per game to tight ends, ranking 10th in yards allowed to the position. We saw Viking's T.J. Hockenson have four grabs last week, plus Patriot's Hunter Henry had a dominant 8-catch, 90-yard, 2-touchdown outing earlier in the season. All signs point toward another big week for Njoku.

Herbert is going to have to use his legs this weekend as injuries continue to deplete the LA roster. He's now without his top RB in Omarion Hampton, top receiver Quentin Johnston is questionable and more importantly, his left tackle Joe Alt is out as well as their right tackle. Miami is allowing the 4th most QB rush attempts, yards, and the 4th highest scramble rate. He has cashed this line in all but one of the last 5 weeks, averaging almost 37 in that stretch. Expect him to be flushed out of the pocket early and often.
