Add Michael Gallup: Gallup put together his second straight big game for the Cowboys.

  • He scored twice after scoring just once previously this season.
  • He put up just 23 yards on four catches, but he was also facing a Colts defense that has allowed the fewest yards per game to wide receivers this season.
  • Gallup gained snaps in 12 personnel over Noah Brown last week, but Brown reclaimed the majority of those snaps this week.
  • That didn’t stop Gallup from being tied for the team lead in targets.
  • The Cowboys play the Titans in Week 17. Tennessee has allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2022. 

Avoid the Colts receivers: The Colts receivers have been very unpredictable from one week to another.

  • Jelani Woods had the best game of his career last week, totaling eight catches for 98 yards, more than doubling his previous career totals.
  • He accomplished this while Kylen Granson was out with an injury.
  • Granson was back this week and returned to the top of the Colts' depth chart. Mo Alie-Cox also played ahead of Woods.
  • This left Woods with no targets for the first 50 minutes of the game.
  • Alec Pierce was the clear top receiver for the Colts today. He caught four passes for 86 yards and a touchdown. It was his best fantasy performance of the season.
  • He had flashed at times particularly early in the season, but he’s also been held without a catch in two of his last four games.
  • Indianapolis has their bye week next week and then a favorable matchup against the Vikings. The schedule only gets worse from there.


Table Notes

Snaps include plays called back due to penalties, including offensive holding or defensive pass interference. The other three stats have these plays removed.

Targets may differ from official NFL sources. The most likely discrepancy would be from a clear thrown-away pass, where the NFL may give the target to the nearest receiver, while this data will not.

Carries are only on designed plays. Quarterback scrambles won’t count for the total number of carries in the game.
