PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. San Francisco

This week is another chance for Carson Wentz to light it up against a 49ers team that gave up a 40-burger last week to the Cowboys. The Eagles have the highest implied team total in Vegas this week, and Wentz is the overall fantasy QB2 on the season. The 49ers have also allowed the second-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, giving up more than 20 per game. Wentz is an elite fantasy option in Week 8.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Washington

Carson Wentz is on fire this season with a better than 4:1 touchdown to interception ratio. This week he gets a rematch at home with Washington, a team he threw for 300+ yards and two scores against on the road in Week 1. In the past two weeks, Wentz has 7 touchdowns. Start him with confidence in Week 7.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Carolina Panthers

Carson Wentz is QB6 through five weeks, but three of his five games were against teams that are currently top-10 in fantasy points allowed to the position. The challenge is greater on the road with a short week this time against a Panthers defense allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. Carolina is also top-10 in our aFPA vs. QB rankings. For that reason, Wentz is a fringe QB1 in 12-team leagues this week.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Arizona Cardinals

The Eagles get a west coast team coming east for a 1 PM eastern kickoff, and that team is ranked only 25th in our aFPA vs. QB rankings. Take away games against Jacoby Brissett and Brian Hoyer, and the Cardinals have allowed 27.1 and 22.9 points to Matthew Stafford and Dak Prescott, respectively. This leads us to believe Wentz is a top-10 QB this week with a couple of big names at the position on a bye week.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Los Angeles Chargers

Carson Wentz is the QB6 through three weeks of the season but is buoyed by his first two weeks after a subpar 13.2 points last week. Nevertheless, Wentz is a low-end QB1 candidate this week on the road against the Chargers, a team that has allowed the 13th-most fantasy points to QBs (17.0 fantasy points per game). The Chargers are now without the servicesof top corner Jason Verrett for the season, freeing up coverage for Wentz's targets.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. New York Giants

Wentz is the fantasy QB3 through two weeks, but his matchup is the toughest yet this week against the second-best defense in our aFPA vs. QB rankings. Wentz only averaged 10.5 points in two games against this division rival a year ago. You can consider him a fringe QB1 in Week 3, based on his volume (42 attempts per game) and the distinct possibility his defense gives him short fields against a bad Giants offense.

PHI QB Carson Wentz - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Kansas City Chiefs

Wentz had a decent start to the season, with 16.9 standard fantasy points at Washington, but it should be noted a good chunk of that came on an improvised broken play where Nelson Agholor was left open for a touchdown. The matchup is tougher this week at Kansas City, who are ranked eighth in our aFPA vs. QBs. Wentz was likely drafted as your backup QB and should remain as such on your bench in 1QB leagues this week. He must cut down on his turnovers (two last week) if he's going to become a reliable fantasy option.
