NFL Fantasy 10/7 Afternoon Games
We are back with another edition of NFL Fantasy Today! There have been some great games so far but this edition will focus on just the 4 afternoon games. I really like one match-up especially and will key in on a few players from that game. Let's get it started with the quarterback position.
D Carr QB 5200. It has been a nightmare couple years for the Oakland Raiders and Derek Carr. They were favorites to go to the Super Bowl a few years ago but it never panned out. Carr has been working with his new head coach, Jon Gruden, and I think that is going to start to pay off this week. I don't think the Chargers pass defense is very strong so I like Carr to have a break out game this afternoon.

T Gurley RB 9400. Todd Gurley is having another fantastic year in a Rams uniform and he is going to be mentioned in the MVP debate. He will be running wild today against a very deflated Seattle Seahawks defense. I think Gurley will end up with around 150+ all purpose yards and get into the end zone a couple times.

A Cooper WR 5500. Amari Cooper came into the NFL with #1 wide receiver talent and hopes. But it has been a bumpy ride and Cooper's play has been inconsistent. Today though will be the resurgence of his career as he will be Derek Carr's first target. I like Cooper to have a monster day and go well past his fantasy average of 15 points.



@npl77 @scottybuckets These afternoon games will feature some big scores. There are some great offenses and the public will all be using Jared Goff and the Rams receivers. So I went with the Oakland Raiders offense and it could pay off big. Good luck with your fantasy picks. Thank you for following @steemsports and you can find me @npl77

I would have to agree that Oakland might have a good game against the Chargers defense. I personally think Jon Gruden is an amazing coach and once the Raider players start buying into his coaching style this team will be a playoff team.

Rams are looking unstoppable! I am an LA native and have seen how the Rams fans have come alive. I think this new Rams attitude has come from their new coach Sean McVay.
