Week 10 Wrap: Fantasy football managers, it might be time to bench your Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles @ Dallas Cowboys

Dallas’ offense was abysmal and even worse than expected without Dak Prescott. Cooper Rush lost as many fumbles (2.0) as he got yards per attempt. It was the fewest passing yards in a game with at least 20 attempts since 2015. Rush finished with a completion percentage over expectation (-13.5) in the eighth percentile despite an average depth of target of just 6.4 yards (18th percentile). CeeDee Lamb’s 10 targets resulted in 21 scoreless yards, including losing a touchdown in the sun.

Hurts won in Dallas for the first time in his career, and he now has eight rushing touchdowns over his last four games. Saquon Barkley’s day wasn’t bigger thanks to Hurts stealing two short TD runs and hurting his arm in the second quarter.

Fantasy managers hoping for more Eagles production were hurt by the Cowboys never pushing back during Philadelphia’s first win in Dallas since 2017.

• It’s not just the Dallas offense. The Cowboys have allowed an NFL record 201 points over their last five home games. Dallas has committed 10 turnovers and scored zero touchdowns over its last two home games. The…
