What’s the panic level for CD Lamb specifically?
And then just kind of Cowboys as a whole.
Yeah, CD, I got some panic, uh just given the state of this offense, I mean, Dak was undefeated against the Lions had his highest career passer rating against them.
And then this week he finished as the lowest scoring fantasy QB.
His uh completion percentage over expectation was in the 10th percentile.
I believe it was the second worst catchable target rate of any game this season.
So he is struggling.
CD still saw 37.5% 1st read target rate.
That was the eighth best in the league in week six and man, their defense struggling, uh they’ve allowed the third most points ever over a four games at home stretch ever, uh their last four home games.
Um and the run struggling should theoretically help the volume here and you look at, you flip the, the Cowboys schedule, maybe try to trade for CD Lamb.
Now during the buy at San Francisco at Atlanta Philly Houston at Washington, that looks like a pretty good setup for some shootouts last year.
Dallas fixed their offense coming out of the buy, maybe they come out with some, some motion and play action and fix things.
But, yeah, there’s some concern for this Dallas franchise.
It looks really, uh, something, something wrong there.
But, um, CD, only, only some panic.
Yeah, CD specifically only some panic.
Still think Ferguson is fantasy starter.
I think you could make a case that just because tight end stinks.
He might be a top five, tight end on the board.
But, you know, as for everybody else.
Yeah, it’s total panic.
I mean, you, it’s total panic for, for, for Zach Prescott, for all these guys, uh, for the whole Cowboys franchise, uh, in general.
