Outlook Dak Prescott

Dak Prescott vs Arizona — Poised for a big performance in a projected shootout

Coming off an impressive 38-21 victory over Philadelphia where he tossed three touchdowns, Prescott has the Dallas passing attack back on track alongside top weapons CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. Completely healthy heading into Week 8, he commands an offense eager to build momentum at home.

This contest sets up as a prime fantasy spot, featuring a high-scoring projected environment against a struggling Arizona pass defense. We project Prescott for roughly 283 passing yards and two touchdowns (20.1 fantasy points), meaning fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.

Outlook Trevor Lawrence

Trevor Lawrence vs. Colts in Primed Home Spot

Lawrence enters Week 8 operating with supreme confidence in coordinator Liam Coen's scheme, coming off a 306-yard, four-touchdown performance before Jacksonville's bye. While starting tackle Anton Harrison remains sidelined, Lawrence has established strong chemistry with Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers, guiding an offense that is generating explosive plays regularly.

Facing an Indianapolis squad mired in a three-game losing streak, Lawrence steps into a favorable scoring setup. Our weekly projection forecasts roughly 261 passing yards and 2.2 passing touchdowns (20.9 fantasy points). With Jacksonville favored by more than a touchdown at home, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats this week.
