Kareem Hunt goes off again in his second-career game.

The rookie running back had 13 carries for 81 yards and two touchdowns while adding three catches (on three targets) for 28 yards. The first touchdown was on a carry near the goal line where he kept driving and turned to reach the ball into the end zone. His second touchdown was a 53-yarder where he ran up the middle and got to the second level before showing his speed and running away from the defense—making it his second 50+ yard touchdown in his first two games. Hunt again showed superb balance and power, with the ability to move forward after contact and keep driving forward. The Chiefs got a good one in Toledo’s all-time leading rusher. He’ll be a top-ten option again next week against the Chargers.

Terrance West scores in Week 2 win.

West rushed eight times for 22 yards, including a four-yard touchdown in the first quarter. He also caught two passes for 23 yards. Javorius Allen, though, handled 19 touches and turned them into 101 yards and a score, as it looks like he quickly took over the backfield for Baltimore. West also has Alex Collins pushing him for work, so it will be difficult to trust him in Week 3 against the Jaguars in London.

Alex Smith completes 75% of passes in Chiefs’ win over the Eagles.

Smith played very well and helped move the Chiefs to 2-0 on the season, going 21/28 for 251 yards and a touchdown while also adding 21 rushing yards on four carries. It was a defensive battle for the first half, but Kansas City came out with 21 second-half points in the Week 2 victory. Smith looked good as usual, with his best throw probably coming on a 35-yard dime to Chris Conley down the sideline. He took another deep show to Tyreek Hill, but the throw was slightly outside and Hill couldn’t adjust to it. Smith is an excellent QB2 option next Sunday against the Chargers in LA.

Alex Collins averages six yards per carry in Ravens debut.

He rushed seven times for 42 yards, but did lose a fumble. Collins only saw one fewer carry than Terrance West, so it looks like he has a chance to unseat him. Fumbling won’t help his cause, but Collins definitely has some talent. He’s a name to keep an eye on.

Javorius Allen leads the Ravens backfield in Week 2.

Allen rushed 14 times for 66 yards and caught five passes for 35 yards and one touchdown. Presumed starter Terrance West saw just eight carries while Alex Collins received seven, so while West scored on the ground, it looks like we may have a changing of the guard in Baltimore. Allen is probably the best back on the team, and he’s worth FLEX consideration in Week 3, even against a tough Jacksonville defense.

Nelson Agholor catches touchdown in Eagles’ Week 2 loss.

Agholor was targeted only a couple times and the touchdown was his only reception in the game. The score was a nine-yarder, where Agholor showed great concentration and hands to snag the ball in the back of the end zone and use footwork to stay in bounds, that put the Eagles within seven with under a minute to go. Torrey Smith curiously played ahead of Agholor in two-receiver sets, but the third-year receiver is off to a nice start this season. He has two touchdowns through two games and is showing the talent that made him a can’t-miss prospect out of USC.

Joe Flacco was 25/34 for 217 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in Sunday’s 24-10 win over the Browns.

Flacco threw both scores in the second quarter, first to Javorius Allen for nine yards on a scramble and then to Jeremy Maclin on an out from two yards away. He hasn’t been asked to do much through two weeks as he returns to form from a back injury, but the offense should open up more in the coming weeks. Flacco shouldn’t be in lineups next week against the Jaguars, which is a 9:30 AM ET kickoff, as it’s being played in London.
