Player insights
A.J. Brown
Ranked in the top 10 for unrealized air yards in Week 7, indicating continued high-volume downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity.
Insight pageBam Knight
Cardinals running back Knight got loose from 11 yards out and beat his man on a downfield streak, but unfortunately couldn't complete the play and dropped what would have been an 11-yard touchdown.
Insight pageBlake Corum
Had two touchdowns wiped away in Week 7: a 43-yard touchdown run nullified by a facemask penalty and a two-yard potential touchdown nullified by holding. Ian Hartitz notes both penalties were deserved and clearly visible on replay. Despite the penalties being rightfully called, Hartitz emphasizes the frustration of watching Corum score repeatedly only to have the points taken away, underscoring his elite red zone involvement and scoring opportunity volume. Named Hartitz's top "Sheesh MVP" for Week 7, highlighting that Corum nearly had a three-touchdown day but had multiple scores negated by penalties, showcasing his consistent ability to create scoring opportunities even when the final stat line doesn't reflect it.
Insight pageBraelon Allen
Was stopped just short of the goal line in Week 7 and did not score a touchdown; missed a scoring opportunity despite being in position to score.
Insight pageBryce Young
Young threw two interceptions in Week 7, a significant departure from his recent performance expectations. One interception was aided by Jaylen Coker falling down at the top of his route—not Young's fault—but the other was definitely Young's responsibility, undercut by the defender. Ian Hartitz noted the overall performance was far from what had been expected from Young recently.
Insight pageCarnell Tate
Was stopped just short of the goal line and did not score a touchdown in Week 7; missed a scoring opportunity.
Insight pageChris Godwin
Had a nine-yard touchdown wiped away by an illegal shift penalty in Week 7. The penalty was caused by Bucky Irving not coming to a full stop before the snap, and it negated what was a very nice connection from Baker Mayfield to Godwin on a flat route. The penalty did not have any bearing on the actual play itself, making it a frustrating missed scoring opportunity.
Insight pageDeeJay Dallas
Seahawks running back Dallas was featured on a third-down play where Sam Darnold rolled out of the pocket but couldn't hit him in stride. Had the pass been on target, Dallas appeared to have a clear path to a 17-yard touchdown with no Chiefs defenders in position to cut him off. This represents a near-miss high-value opportunity that illustrates Dallas's involvement in the Seahawks' passing game.
Insight pageDenzel Boston
Led all pass catchers with 124 unrealized air yards in Week 7, the highest mark of the week. Playing a volatile boomer-bust downfield role and consistently getting open deep downfield; even amid Casey Cansep's breakout day, Boston was still generating fantasy-friendly deep opportunities. Season-long, Boston ranks third in unrealized air yards with 539 yards, indicating sustained high-volume downfield targeting. Also had a potential 48-yard touchdown that was overthrown; while it wouldn't have counted anyway due to an offensive holding penalty, Ian Hartitz notes that Boston did enough to get open downfield and gave him credit for the effort.
Insight pageDK Metcalf
Ranks among the top four on the season in unrealized air yards with over 400 yards, indicating sustained high-volume downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity despite production not yet materializing at the same rate.
Insight pageJahan Dotson
Falcons wide receiver with 115 unrealized air yards in Week 7, ranking in the top 10 for the week. Also accumulated DPI penalties in Week 7, indicating continued end zone targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity despite penalties preventing point realization. Among the biggest DPI beneficiaries in Week 7, showing defensive pass interference penalties worked in his favor during the week's games.
Insight pageJahmyr Gibbs
Slid short of the goal line twice at the end of Week 7 when the Packers were willing to give him touchdowns, costing himself two potential scores. Ian Hartitz notes Gibbs appeared to be looking out for his real-life team and teammates rather than his fantasy managers. On the second slide, Gibbs' ankle moved the wrong direction, but he got up seemingly okay, raising minor injury concern.
Insight pageJalen Brooks
Cardinals wide receiver with 108 unrealized air yards in Week 7, ranking in the top 10 for the week, indicating sustained downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity. Also was open downfield for a potential 40-yard gain but was underthrown by his quarterback in Week 7; while Ian Hartitz doesn't believe it would have resulted in a touchdown, the play demonstrates Brooks' involvement in the passing game and his ability to get open for significant yardage opportunities.
Insight pageJalen Coker
Coker had multiple missed opportunities in Week 7. He fell down at the top of his route on one of Bryce Young's interceptions—Ian Hartitz noted this was not Young's fault, indicating Coker's play contributed to the turnover. Additionally, Coker had a potential 48-yard touchdown that was overthrown by Young; the receiver was open enough to catch a touchdown but didn't get an accurate ball.
Insight pageJordan Love
Love threw one interception in Week 7 on third and 21 backed up on his own goal line—essentially an arm punt situation. The interception should not be held against him as a meaningful negative; Brian Branch intercepted the pass downfield.
Insight pageJordan Watkins
Ranked in the top 10 for unrealized air yards in Week 7, indicating high-volume downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity.
Insight pageKendre Miller
Was stopped just short of the goal line in Week 7 and did not score a touchdown; missed a scoring opportunity despite being in position to score.
Insight pageKhalil Herbert
Was stopped just short of the goal line in Week 7 and did not score a touchdown; missed a scoring opportunity despite being in position to score.
Insight pageKyren Williams
Was stopped just short of the goal line in Week 7 and did not score a touchdown; missed a scoring opportunity despite being in position to score.
Insight pageMarvin Harrison Jr.
Ranked in the top 10 for unrealized air yards in Week 7, indicating high-volume downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity.
Insight pageMatthew Golden
Leads the entire NFL in unrealized air yards for the season with 749 yards, over 200 more than second place (Michael Wilson at 539), and also leads the league in drops and DPI penalties. Ian Hartitz highlights Golden as a smash pick at his ADP despite unrealized upside; Golden has been open downfield frequently but hasn't converted opportunities into production at the rate his volume suggests. Hartitz notes Golden has still had a very good year overall, but is "scratching the surface on how big of a year this actually could have been" given the volume of fantasy-friendly opportunities he's generating.
Insight pageMichael Wilson
Ranks second on the season in unrealized air yards with 539 yards, indicating sustained high-volume downfield targeting. Also accumulated multiple DPI penalties in Week 7 with the Cardinals spamming end zone targets to Wilson while down multiple touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Had a potential 5-yard touchdown in the corner of the end zone that he couldn't come down with; he is now over eight end zone targets with Jacoby Brissett this season, but better days are expected next Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.
Insight pagePuka Nacua
Ranks among the top four on the season in unrealized air yards with over 400 yards, indicating sustained high-volume downfield targeting and fantasy-friendly opportunity despite production not yet materializing at the same rate.
Insight pageRome Odunze
Odunze had a potential 13-yard touchdown go right off his hands on Thursday night. While it wouldn't have counted anyway due to an offensive pass interference call, Ian Hartitz called out the drop. Odunze made up for it later with several nice clutch catches in the second half.
Insight pageThomas Fidone
Giants tight end who was stopped just short of the goal line and did not score a touchdown in Week 7; missed a scoring opportunity.
Insight pageTony Pollard
Could have had a fourth touchdown in Week 7 but got stopped at the 1-yard line on back-to-back carries earlier in the same game. Despite scoring three touchdowns, he missed out on additional scoring opportunities due to goal-line inefficiency.
Insight pageTre Tucker
Ranked in the top 10 for unrealized air yards in Week 7 and accumulated 20+ yards of DPI penalties in Week 7, indicating high-volume end zone targeting. Cardinals continued to spam end zone targets to Tucker while down multiple touchdowns in the fourth quarter, showing sustained opportunity despite penalties preventing point realization.
Insight pageTrey McBride
Ranked in the top 10 for unrealized air yards in Week 7 and accumulated three separate DPI penalties in Week 7, indicating high-volume end zone targeting. Cardinals continued to spam end zone targets to McBride while down multiple touchdowns in the fourth quarter, showing sustained opportunity despite penalties preventing point realization.
