Arizona Cardinals at Philadelphia Eagles
1:00 PM ET
LINCOLN FINANCIAL FIELD
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA
Temp: 77°
Precipitation: Drizzle throughout game
Wind: 13 mph
Wind Gusts: 24 mph
Fantasy Impact: The whole west coast team traveling to the east coast for a 1:00 pm game is a concern for Arizona. Couple the travel with an outside game in wet and windy conditions and I’m off Arizona completely. Carson Palmer has three straight 300-yd games, but 185 pass attempts through 4 games have resulted in only five TDs to go with five interceptions. The Arizona backfield is a quagmire wrapped in an enigma that is altogether a must-avoid. Larry Fitzgerald maintains a decent floor, but very little ceiling. The rest of the WR corps is a mess.
The Philadelphia defense is a nice streamer given the Arizona struggles on offense. The Philadelphia offense has been Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with the run/pass game so far this year making this game hard to project. Zach Ertz should be heavily targeted yet again, but the rest of the Philadelphia offense offers little appeal.
Seattle Seahawks at Los Angeles Rams
4:05 PM ET

SOLDIER FIELD
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

Fantasy Impact: None, but keep an eye on the weather. 20 mph gusts are no biggie, but anything higher becomes a bit worrisome.
