From the article

Aaron Rodgers continued to heavily target Metcalf -- he led the team for the second straight week -- but the eighth-year wide receiver again posted a sub-10-point fantasy score (6.7 this time). The matchup contributed, as star New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez covered Metcalf on 85% of his routes.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Metcalf's sub-10 score driven by Gonzalez coverage; needs soft matchup vs. Bengals.

Metcalf led the Seahawks in targets for the second straight week but posted a sub-10-point fantasy score (6.7 points in Week 2); the matchup contributed significantly, as Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez covered Metcalf on 85% of his routes; Metcalf badly needs a big game in Week 3 against Cincinnati's softer secondary if he's to remain a weekly WR2/flex consideration.
