Week 5 – vs Denver – L 10-16
QB: Carr an average game and had trouble with the pass rush in this one. Wasn’t protected well and had little to throw to outside of a lot of short stuff.
RB: Murray a below average game and did nothing to impress against tough D. Match up was bad so not his fault. Line couldn’t do much for him.
WR: Crabtree and Cooper covered well and held to average games. Neither could get much space. Another bad match up so they should be fine.
TE: Rivera a few catches but just an average fantasy game. Would like to see him get a lot more targets but it just isn’t happening.
OL: Couldn’t handle elite pass rush. Not a shocking outcome there. Did nothing for run game. Continues to be a pretty bad run blocking unit.
Def: Stout against terrible run game and O line. Pass rush disrupted a good passing team. Played pretty well overall considering match up. Gave up good game to #2 WR. Held rest in check. Finally shutout TE but I would continue starting all TEs against.
