No. 6 Stefon Diggs vs. Philadelphia

The Vikings aren’t happy. That Buffalo loss was baffling, but last week’s defeat wasn’t. The Rams are the best team in football — no disrespect to Mahomes and KC — and Jared Goff torched that Vikings defense.

Cousins still balled out and Diggs shook off a frustrating outing against Buffalo to the tune of 11 catches for 123 yards.

The Philadelphia secondary got absolutely torched in the Titans comeback Sunday. Corey Davis was on our WR sleeper list last week and he didn’t let us down with his best performance, including a game-winning touchdown in overtime. Diggs in this matchup is the toughest cover. He’s got the hands to make catches in traffic or on the sidelines during drives but he’s even scarier in space. He’s an easy top matchup this week.
