If you were a fantasy owner with one member of the Cowboys on your roster last week you probably were happy.
If you had two or more, then you likely won your matchup going away.
Dallas put up a monster number on the board against Rams on Sunday. Several of their players were following suit on the stat sheet.
Big Fantasy Numbers
CeeDee Lamb led the way for the Cowboys with 47.55 points – using my league's standard PPR scoring – on Sunday.
Dak Prescott was close behind with 37.35 — even with his tipped interception deducting a few points.
The Cowboys' defense – thanks to a safety and DaRon Bland's Pick Six – piled up 24.20 points. Brandin Cooks had his second 13-point week in a row too.
Even tight end Jake Ferguson got into double digits, with 13.75. Brandon Aubrey (13.00) and KaVontae Turpin (10.00) also hit double digits.
Turpin might have hit closer to 20 had his punt return for a touchdown not been wiped away by a penalty.
Tony Pollard just missed double-digit scoring, finishing with 8.90 points.
Season Leaders
Just shy of the halfway mark of the NFL season — and just past that point in fantasy leagues — Prescott is the top-scoring Cowboy.
At 167.80, Prescott is 10 points ahead of the Dallas defense in fantasy scoring. CeeDee Lamb sits at 144.75.
Tony Pollard is the only other Cowboys' player in triple digits with 104.10.
Brandon Aubrey is a distant fourth at 79.00 points.
With back-to-back 30-plus performances, Prescott is now 19th among NFL quarterbacks in scoring. Pollard is also 19th among running backs.
Lamb, having scored nearly half of his season's total in the last two weeks, has moved up to ninth among wide receivers.
Ferguson, at 53.50 points, is 16th among tight ends. Aubrey is fifth among kickers, only 12 points behind the Eagles' Jake Elliott.
The defense regained the top spot by six points over the Ravens and Baltimore still has its bye week pending.
Unhappy Trade Court Judge
His Honor is grumpy. Not only did the Cowboys sit out the trade deadline this week, apparently so did the rest of you.
All he got in the inbox was a spam e-mail from a European woman desperately trying to get several million dollars owed to him by a distant relative.
Y'all, seriously, send us something trade-related to fantasytradejudge@yahoo.com. Even if you have to make it up.
Even Bailiff Bubba J. Bonecrusher is afraid to walk into the courtroom these days.
My FFL Week
Recall a few weeks ago when I mentioned that two of my three fantasy leagues use doubleheaders?
I didn't do good at all that week.
We had them again this week and I matched my Week 3 efforts. I'm now 0-10 in double header weeks. My teams are 7-11 without them.
Yeah, 7-21 (.250) overall for the year is not good. That's the problem with having your QB1, RB1, and TE1 all play for the same NFL team.
When they all have a bad day, so do you. I hope your teams are doing much better.
I'm picking up quarterback Will Levis in two of my leagues on waivers after his performance on Sunday.
I think the Titans have found their quarterback of the future.
Since my other quarterbacks in those leagues are Derek Carr and Jared Goff, maybe I did too.
