Best NFL Plays of the Week: Justin Fields Smashes the Slate

Detroit struggles with mobile quarterbacks as they have allowed the most rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks this season. They also tend to let up a lot of big plays in their secondary which is good for a player like Fields. The only thing that I think could hold Fields back here is the weather but if he can figure out a way to get about 200 passing yards and a touchdown along with 50 yards rushing and a TD, I think we could be looking at a 25-to-30-point outing.

Running Back

Zack Moss, Indianapolis Colts

Cincinnati has allowed 4.54 YPC this season. That is an extremely high number and one that we need to take advantage of. Moreover, Moss will get all the snaps that he can handle and I fully expect him to get about 85 to 90% of the touches in that backfield. What I really like about Moss is that he let everybody down in Week 13 with a dud against Tennessee. Cincinnati's run defense is nowhere near as good as Tennessee’s run defense and for that reason alone I think Moss may be one of the top players in the slate. 

Wide Receiver

CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys

It feels like it was only about five or six weeks ago when Dak Prescott’s trade value barely had a pulse. I remember distinctly in my dynasty league that i couldn't move Dak to anyone. Now if I offered Dak around to other teams they would gladly take him because he's been absolutely fantastic over the past four or five games. Leading the way has been Lamb who is Prescott's top receiver and he's playing at an extremely high level. Add to the fact that Philadelphia’s pass defense has allowed the second most yards in the league and the most touchdowns to opposing receivers, and this seems to be pretty much of a no brainer play.

Tight End

Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs

I could tell you something about play Kelce at home or play him because Taylor Swift will likely be there. But I think this week you play Kelce because he's just due for a huge game. The Bills pass defense is leaky all over and their best cover linebacker, Matt Milano, is out for the season. Jordan Poyer will do his best to try to cover Kelce but he can't match Kelce’s speed or size. This has all the elements of a two-touchdown week for Kelce and I want to be a part of it.
