Their efforts came up just short of providing a win for Dallas.

But they likely helped a lot of Fantasy owners either win a title or at least advance to a championship game this week.

Offense

Prescott likely would have earned top-scorer honors for the Cowboys this week had it not been for getting credited with a fumble on the botched handoff to Hunter Luepke.

Prescott remains the third-highest scorer in fantasy overall and among quarterbacks at 438.7. He trails Josh Allen (480.95) and Jalen Hurts (474.3).

Luepke finished with 1.7 points this week. The fullback would have scored on the play and finished with a 7.8 score for the week had he handled the handoff cleanly.

He also would have been the highest-scoring as (7.5 points) continues to struggle.

Pollard has slipped to 15th overall among running backs with 214.75 points.

Christian McCaffrey has a 114-point lead among running backs with 413.5 points.

Brandin Cooks finished second among Cowboys' receivers with 9.4 points. Jalen Tolbert was third with 7.25 as continues to disappear from the box score.

Lamb is second among all NFL receivers at 357.6, trailing Tyreek Hill by just 28.7 points.

Jake Ferguson added a 6.5-point effort at . He is ninth overall at 141.75 with George Kittle jumping past Travis Kelce to lead all tight ends at 212.35.

Defense/Special Teams

Brandon Aubrey connected on both field goals and both extra point attempts for nine points.

Aubrey is the top fantasy kicker in the NFL with 160 points with the Ravens' Justin Tucker second at 151.

The defensive unit finished in single digits for the second straight week. Their four-point effort was the second-lowest total for the season.

The unit had been the top scoring in fantasy but slipped all the way down to third at 276.7.

The Ravens (289.3) and Dolphins (279.6) now lead the Cowboys.

Top Scorer In Fantasy This Week

Hey, remember the guy traded away for a fifth-rounder to keep Gallup instead? was his name.

Amari Cooper (2) had a huge week in fantasy football and on the field.

He racked up 69.25 points this week to lead all scorers. He had 11 catches for 265 yards, two touchdowns and a two-point conversion.

Did I mention that Jerry Jones traded Cooper away for a fifth-round pick to keep Gallup instead?

My FFL: So Much For The Top Seeds

My last fantasy team alive this year had a nice bye thanks to a division win that earned a second seed.

The No. 1 seed also had a week off and it looked like a rematch of last year's championship game was all but assured.

All we had to was knock off the No. 5 and No. 6 seeds this week. Well, the rematch is on, only it will be in the third-place game.

My team got blasted by the 8-8-1, No. 5 seed by 70 points. Our No. 1 seed fell by 30 points to the 8-9, sixth-seeded team.

Ouch.

Having the second-highest point total in the playoffs is only good if you aren't playing the team that ends up with the highest score of the week.

It happens and it's time for me to start looking at my three fantasy teams and decide who my five keepers will be on each roster.

For many of you, you have a championship game to win. May the odds be more in your favor than they were for me.

The final regular season numbers ended up 18-30 (.375) with one division title. I'm 626-506-7 (.553) with 27 division titles overall.

In the playoffs, I'm 41-27 (.603) with 12 championships in 22 championship game appearances.

It's been since 2018 since I've hoisted a fantasy title but I did play in one title game last year. No Jerry Jones-like GM am I.
