Denver rode a bruising ground game to a 21-17 win over Philadelphia, turning the tide with a heavy run plan and timely run-game efficiency. Sutton was solid, and the run-first approach boosted Broncos' fantasy outlook.

Philly's offense stalled, Hurts struggled and the pass game didn't click consistently. Barkley and Ingram delivered notable scores, while Smith and Brown had sporadic moments. The lesson for fantasy: volume and red-zone chances outweigh raw air yards when offenses stall.

Patriots ride a late surge and Drake Maye’s late-game poise to a pivotal win in Buffalo, signaling a possible uptick in a young QB era in New England. The crew weighs the path from Mac Jones to Maye, the coaching edge, and the defense’s return to form, while Colts’ early dominance and Baker Mayfield’s high-floor leadership spark NFC chatter. A Broncos comeback shakes the AFC West, while the 49ers’ Week 5 mastery under Kyle Shanahan sets up a five-week stretch for elite teams.

Fantasy angles skew toward Drake Maye’s ceiling as a potential streamer in favorable matchups, Jonathan Taylor’s continued monster touch volume for Indy, and Baker Mayfield’s late-season surge in Tampa. The chatter also treats Brock Purdy and the 49ers as a stabilizing force, with wide receiver usage in Philadelphia driving Diggs and Hurts into must-start territory in bold lineups.

Philadelphia blew a 17-3 lead and fell 21-17 as the offense leaned heavily into the pass, with Hurts chucking 38 times for 280 yards and two touchdowns. Devonte Smith piled up 8 grabs for 114 yards, AJ Brown added five catches, and Dallas Goedert drew a big early target. The defense buckled late, with costly penalties and a pivotal Bond foul sealing the misstep before a short week against the Giants.

Denver’s Bo Nix answered with poise and two big drives, aided by Sutton’s late game targets and Keely Ringo’s coverage battles. The mismatch in the late moments underscored Philadelphia’s run-game gaps and personnel questions, while the officiating debate lingered. A wake-up call sits ahead as they regroup for Thursday night.

For fantasy, Barkley’s workload was the story—just six rushing attempts along with some involvement in the passing game—while Hurts’ aerial tilt could bolster ceiling if the run game stabilizes. RPOs looked revived, and the passing attack will be worth monitoring as Philadelphia eyes a quick bounce-back against New York.

4-0 Philadelphia Eagles win with efficient drive scoring and minimal turnovers, even as yardage per drive remains modest. The offense sits 29th in yards per drive but climbs to sixth in touchdowns per drive and fourth in points per drive, driven by turnover discipline and red-zone success. AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith haven’t pilled big-yardage numbers, prompting questions about route variety and usage as the staff weighs growth with consistency.

Denver’s Vic Fangio fronts a crafty, disguising defense that could stress the Eagles’ tempo and run game, especially with Dallas Goddard limited. Cam Latu and Jake Elliott add a special-teams edge to the weekend, while the coaching culture around Nick Sirianni threads through a game that could hinge on explosive plays, misdirection, and field-position battles.
