Goden Tate. And have they really not given up a TD to an RB all year? That's nuts. Yes, thats why i slipped crowder in lol. I know the pats faced a lot of bums early in year, but that D is good regardless. They are well organized and their schemes are top notch. I hate the pats but that D is fun to watch. I mean Jackson did the best and threw for 163 yards and 1 td lol...he ran for 61 and ran for 2 more. Lamar bought himself more time than dak will. Ive just convinced myself to go crowder right here and now lol Edited November 21, 2019 by Zekepeak86 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Id look for anyone with good qb rapport and good matchup with the same kind of targets per game. Guys like crowder should all have safer floors and higher ceilings but this is fantasy. Mccourty could have a bad day and get burned on 1 play where gallup has a line of 4/110/1. He could also see 3/38/0. You start your studs regardless of match ups, if gallup balls out this week, he wont see my bench ros most likely. But he isnt a must start stud.

The closest comp I could find vs the Pats was Landry/OBJ. Not exactly the same thing (especially with Cobb also in the mix) but both put up double digits in PPR. . But I may have to pivot to Latavius or Montgomery in my flex. I'm just looking for the safest way to get 10 points. Edited November 21, 2019 by K197040 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGDDYKWL 1,130 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 You assume the Pats will focus on Cooper. You also figure the Pats will be winning, forcing Dallas to keep throwing. I think he's been too good to sit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGDDYKWL 1,130 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 MJD, who is generally not the greatest when it comes to fantasy, said the Pats would double Cooper and put Gilmore on Gallup. That's closer to a real football observation than fantasy speculation, so I place far more weight on that take. Cause for concern? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Joshua 147 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Could he break off that one big play to save his/your fantasy day? Anything is possible but i believe unlikely. I'm rolling with Westbrook over him in a full ppr. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gallup is talented enough I’m just staying away since I have crowder at home against Oakland. Those stars have a better chance to align in my opinion.

It's definitely cause for concern if Gilmore is in fact on him but I saw an article where they were talking to Gilmore about Cooper so I wasn't sure if MJD was correct.

Gilmore wouldn't tip his hand on who they are matching up against anyways. But if BB follows what he usually does against two talented receivers, he'll play Gilmore on the slower one, and double the faster one with Jonathan Jones (their most athletic corner). 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just looking for the safest way to get 10 points. That's the thing that kind of gets me - lots of scary fantasy stats for the Pats D, and they are very talented and well-coached, but you also have to put it in context. Week 1 they played the Steelers and really shut down Connor and the run game. Ben had to attempt 47 passes to get to 276 yards, but JuJu ended up with a 6-78 line and James Washington went 2-51. Week 2 was the Dolphins and the craptastic combo of Rosen and Fitz throwing 4 INT's. Week 3 was the Jets with Luke damn Falk at QB. Week 4 they did rattle Josh Allen for 3 quarters until they injured him, but again due to garbage time their top 2 WR's had OK games, with John Brown going 5-69 and Beasley going 7-75. Week 5 was the Redskins starting Colt McCoy. Enough said. Week 6 they picked on rookie Danny Dimes, but Tate was still able to go 6-102-1. Week 7 was the Jets again and Darnold coming back off mono looking like a deer in the headlights and throwing 4 INT's. Week 8 was the Browns with Landry going 5-65 and OBJ 5-52. Week 9 they got plowed by the Ravens, albeit mostly on the ground, but that is the Ravens' MO every week. Week 10 was their bye. Week 11 was Philly without Jeffery. Ertz went 9-94 and Goedert went 3-36-1, so this game goes down as another "WR shutdown" game, even though the Eagles' top healthy receiving options were both TE's. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If you sift through all the garbage and pick out the games they played against legitimate offenses, the numbers don't look quite so daunting: JuJu 6-78 = 13.8 PPR points, James Washington 2-51 = 7.1 PPR points John Brown 5-69 = 11.9 PPR points, Beasley = 14.5 PPR points Tate 6-102-1 = 23.2 PPR points Landry 5-65 = 11.5 PPR points, OBJ 5-52 = 10.2 PPR points Marquise Brown 3-48 = 7.8 PPR points Zach Ertz 9-94 = 18.4 PPR points, Goedert 3-36-1 = 12.6 PPR points The Pats are for sure a tough matchup, no questioning that. But a big part of their stats against WR's has been fueled by playing half their games against terrible QB's, and also playing teams that don't emphasize their WR's (Ravens running game, Eagles TE's). Looking at the numbers, I think 7-12 PPR points should be a pretty safe bet for Gallup. It's modest, but there is always the chance at a TD or a big play, so there is some ceiling there (assuming it's not a likely ceiling to hit though). Aside from the Ravens, who dropped 37 on the Pats a couple weeks ago, the Cowboys are the best offense they've played this season. Cowboys have multiple weapons with Elliot at RB, Cooper and Gallup on the outside, Cobb actually showing out half decent in the slot the last few weeks . . . the Pats D will have their hands full. They might be able to target one or two of those weapons and pay special attention to shutting them down, but that becomes harder to sell out to stop one facet when there are so many others that can beat you. And out of that list, I can't really see Gallup being the player they sell out to stop. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K197040 2,412 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Nice work above. The other thing that could be said is that Gallup really hasn’t faced anyone-either. This will be the first time he’s getting a top 10 corner on him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are pretty damn good all the way around, but there are holes. They basically erase the TE and whomever White covers. I noticed one encouraging piece of info from Derek Brown of The Quant Edge on Twitter: "This week is a plum spot for Gallup to blast off matching up against Levi Wallace. Gallup has seen 23.5% of his his target volume on the go route. Wallace has been a free pass on these routes the last 2 years, allowing 45% to be converted.

oscar44 14 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 (edited) Hate to sit him this week but I don't see him getting a lot of volume. The Bills can be ran on and with Zeke and that offensive line, I can't imagine Dallas will throw much when they can play ball control. Garrett is coaching for his job and the Cowboys need a win desperately. Edited November 28, 2019 by oscar44 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ST. STEVEN 4,170 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 It is not a bad match-up at all imo. Number 1 WRs tend to rock the Bears more than the #2 guys, but it really isn't foreboding for Gallup anyways. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
