Jameis Winston was 22/38 for 332 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday’s win over the Giants.

He also rushed four times for 12 yards. Winston was able t0 get a win to improve to 2-1 with a game-winning field goal, but it wouldn’t have been possible if he didn’t take care of the ball. That’s what he’ll have to do if he wants to upset the Patriots on Thursday night. The former first-overall pick is a solid QB1 in that matchup with New England’s defense not stopping anyone right now.

Jordan Reed doesn’t do much in Week 4.

Reed started off the game involved, but he sort of disappeared as the game went on. He caught three passes for 21 yards in the Redskins’ loss. Injuries have been an issue for Reed this year, but he’ll try to get going after the Redskins return from their Week 5 bye.

Wayne Gallman finally gets his opportunity.

The rookie running back from Clemson was active with Orleans Darkwa out with a back injury and starter Paul Perkins leaving the game with a rib injury. Gallman took advantage, carrying 11 times for 42 yards and catching two passes for eight yards and a touchdown. The score was on a pass to the flat that Gallman basically walked in on. The fourth-round rookie ran well, giving an extremely ineffective running game a surge (and showing the Giants waited too long to give him a chance). Gallman could have easily been a second round pick in the draft, as he displayed an all-around skill set in college but lasted until the fourth round. The Giants would probably be wise to let him try and runaway with the starting job in the backfield, but we’ll see what happens.

Terrelle Pryor scores first touchdown as a Redskin.

Pryor caught a touchdown 44-yard touchdown over Marcus Peters on the first drive of the game, and he ended up with three receptions for 70 yards and the touchdown total in the game. Pryor did appear to shy away on a pass over the middle in a big situation, something that’s clearly become a problem for him. Through four games, Pryor is on pace for 54 receptions, 744 yards, and four touchdowns. That might be about where his numbers end up this season, though it wouldn’t be surprising to see him improve as the season moves forward.

Demaryius Thomas held to one catch in Week 4 win.

It went for 11 yards. DT couldn’t haul in any downfield plays, and he’s yet to score a touchdown in 2017. The Broncos will look to fix things over their bye week. Thomas is on pace for 72 catches and 988 yards, both of which he should improve upon starting in Week 6. He remains a solid WR2.

Chiefs limit Chris Thompson in Week 4.

After his insane start to the season, Thompson couldn’t get much going in this one, carrying six times for 23 yards and adding a four-yard reception—and he was given a lost fumble on the final play of the game where the Redskins were lateraling the ball. Through four games, Thompson is on pace for 80 carries, 568 rushing yards, eight rushing touchdowns, 56 receptions, 940 receiving yards, and eight receiving touchdowns. While he isn’t going to rack up 16 total touchdowns or 1,500 total yards this season, Thompson should be a solid PPR option for many weeks.

Eli Manning plays well, but the Giants fall to 0-4.

Manning was 30/49 for 288 yards and two touchdowns while adding three carries for 22 yards, including a rare rushing touchdown on a 14-yarder. Through four games, Eli is on pace for 4,452 yards, 24 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions—eerily similar numbers to the ones 2004 draft mate Philip Rivers, who Manning plays next week when the Giants face the Chargers, is putting up.
