What worked: Higgins was the headline: 6-148-1 against a 17.8-point projection. Burrow threw four second-half scores and Flowers answered with 8-137-1 for Baltimore.

What to do: Derrick Henry managed only 45 rushing yards on 17 carries. Keep starting the established Bengals pass catchers; Henry remains a touchdown-driven starter, though this was the floor outcome. Baltimore travels to Buffalo next.

What worked: Bucky Irving carried 24 times for 106 yards and two touchdowns as Tampa Bay controlled the game on the ground.

What to do: Baker Mayfield needed only 11 pass attempts, making his modest passing total a game-script result rather than proof the offense is broken. Carolina faces Green Bay on Thursday, with Moton’s injury a material line concern.

What worked: Jameson Williams turned five catches into 91 yards and two scores; Amon-Ra St. Brown posted 9-153 and cleared our 22.9 PPR projection.

What to do: A competitive division game supported Detroit’s passing core. Gibbs still ran for 116 yards, though a lost fumble capped his day. Minnesota comes to Detroit in Week 8; keep the Lions’ stars in.

What worked: The Rams spread three Stafford touchdown passes, including two to tight end Davis Allen and one to Puka Nacua. Kyren Williams and Blake Corum combined for 192 rushing yards and two scores.

What to do: The tight end spike was a useful reminder to track role and routes rather than chase two touchdowns blindly. Nacua played through the calf concern; monitor recovery before next week’s Chargers matchup.

What worked: Malik Nabers caught seven for 111 in J.J. McCarthy’s first Giants start, while Devin Singletary finished the overtime winner.

What to do: Nico Collins’ two catches for six yards were the most painful miss against our 22.5 projection. Tracy and Skattebo both need hamstring follow-up. Both teams are on bye in Week 8, so roster planning matters more than a one-week replacement start.

What worked: Ollie Gordon carried 25 times for 103 yards and a touchdown; Braelon Allen ran for 104 yards on 17 attempts in a surprisingly productive Jets ground game. Malik Willis threw two touchdowns for Miami.

What to do: Garrett Wilson’s 2-26 line badly missed our 19.6 projection. Do not bench him solely for one bad box score, but revisit the Jets’ quarterback and target distribution before Week 8 versus Las Vegas.

What worked: Michael Penix Jr. threw three touchdowns, including scores to Drake London and Kyle Pitts.

What to do: Bijan Robinson’s 63 rushing yards did not match his 29.0 PPR projection. This is a hold-and-start talent, not a panic sale. McCaffrey’s thigh bears watching, although the 49ers are off next week. Atlanta visits Tampa Bay.

What worked: Minnesota’s defense kept Jonathan Taylor and the Colts in check; Jordan Mason handled more work after Aaron Jones exited.

What to do: Justin Jefferson’s 4-44 was 8.4 PPR against a 19.4 projection. Keep starting him. Jones’ knee, not one week of passing production, is the key Vikings development before their Detroit trip.

What worked: Jaylen Warren surpassed 100 rushing yards and 125 yards from scrimmage, paying off a meaningful role even in a low-total game.

What to do: New Orleans’ rushing attack stalled. Alvin Kamara remained involved as a receiver, but the Saints now have a Week 8 bye. Pittsburgh hosts Cleveland next.

What worked: Quinshon Judkins rushed 17 times for 96 yards and two touchdowns; KC Concepcion produced 129 receiving yards.

What to do: The Titans fought back, but Cleveland’s explosive plays were the fantasy difference. Monitor Judkins’ workload before the Browns visit Pittsburgh, while Tennessee faces Cincinnati.

What worked: Bo Nix added a 62-yard rushing touchdown and connected with RJ Harvey on a 52-yard score. His rushing ceiling made the difference.

What to do: Arizona’s offense did not keep pace, and a lone Denver blowout should not drive wholesale Cardinals drops. Denver hosts Kansas City next in a much tougher fantasy environment.
