Dolphins offense gets shutout against the Saints in London.

This was just an ugly game in the entire first half—with countless penalties and only three total points scored, coming on a field goal by the Saints as time expired. Then in the second half, the Saints completely dominated, controlling the ball for almost the entire half and winning, 20-0. Jay Cutler was 20/28 for 163 yards and an interception in the game, while adding a five-yard carry on a zone-read. On the opening drive of the game, the Dolphins drove right down the field and attempted a fade on first-and-goal to tight end Julius Thomas, but Thomas made a terrible effort for the ball against smaller cornerback C.J. Crowley, allowing him to intercept it. Perhaps the Dolphins should’ve run the ball there, but Thomas needs to do a lot better job than he did. Overall, Cutler played better than a shutout would indicate, but it obviously was not a good game. The Dolphins have had to deal with a lot early in the season, but the offense is still struggling mightily over the first two weeks. They’ll try to figure it out against Tennessee next week.

Lance Kendricks catches one pass in Week 4.

Kendricks’ reception didn’t go for any yards. He’ll probably help the Packers in real life more than he’ll help your fantasy team right now.

Braxton Miller catches one pass in Week 3.

The second-year receiver couldn’t get much going against the Patriots, as he caught one of his four targets for 15 yards. He’s not a recommended fantasy option at the moment.

Le’Veon Bell finds the end zone, but is held in check again as the Steelers lose to the Bears.

Bell rushed 15 times for 61 yards, including a one-yard score. He also caught six passes for 37 yards. The superstar back is averaging just 3.5 yards per carry so far this season, and things won’t be any easier with a trip to Baltimore in Week 4. Still, while he might not be the top option at the position, he’s an obvious high-end RB1 play.

Sammie Coates is officially questionable for Sunday.

Coates was a limited participant in practice yesterday and today, and he definitely has a real chance to get out there against the Bengals. However, he’s not a reliable fantasy option right now, even if he is active for the game.

Aaron Ripkowski gets two touches in Week 4.

The Packers fullback had one carry for four yards and one reception for six yards. When both Ty Montgomery and Jamaal Williams left the game, rookie Aaron Jones (13 carries) received most of the work in the backfield. Maybe Ripkowski will be an option in touchdown-only leagues if Montgomery and Williams are out for Week 5, but it’s risky to put him in your lineup.

Ameer Abdullah handles 17 touches in Week 3 loss to the Falcons.

It’s Abdullah’s third-straight game with at least 17 touches, so his role and ability clearly keep him in RB2 territory. He rushed 14 times for 47 yards and caught three passes for 39 yards against Atlanta, and should see a similar workload against the Vikings next Sunday. Because of the matchup, consider him a low-end RB2/FLEX option.
