Fantasy Football: 5 bold predictions for Week 17

Bold Prediction #1: Jalen Hurts wins all fantasy leagues

The Dallas Cowboys came into last week with a lot of issues on offense. It was incredibly hard to trust any of the players with the season on the line. We told you to believe in the Cowboys offense last week. They helped you out with a 56-point explosion on the Washington Football Team.

This week, the matchup speaks to us again. The Philadelphia Eagles do not have the talent that the Dallas Cowboys have, but they have Jalen Hurts. He’s one of the most talented quarterbacks in the league. He’s been injured at times during the year, but when he’s in the lineup, he’s good for fantasy lineups. This week, he should have one of his best weeks. It’s hard to think that a team might have Jalen Hurts available in their championship week, but it’s possible.

Hurts played the Washington Football Team two weeks ago, and he torched them. He had 28 fantasy points after throwing for 296 yards and rushing for two touchdowns. Washington’s defense has nothing that would tell anyone that they can stop Hurts this week. They are the worst defense on the season against the quarterback. Everyone has a good game against them. Now, one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in the league is facing them in the most important week.

There is no quarterback in fantasy that players should start over Jalen Hurts. Even Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson (if he plays) will take a backseat to Hurts. He’s the man to play when it matters the most.
