Jahmyr Gibbs
vs Trey McBride

“Gibbs is on pace to clear that line with room to spare. Two-week paces rarely hold, and Detroit could ease off. Right now, though, the Lions keep ordering rounds.”

“Jahmyr Gibbs played an 83% snap share (54 of 65 snaps), 16 carries for 52 yards (0 TD), 8 official targets (9 true)/6 rec/61 yds/1 TD, 0 fumbles. 22 official touches (23 true), 113 official total yards. First-half usage: 8 carries for 47 yards, 4 targets/4 catches/40 yds/1 TD — 12 touches, 87 yards and the game’s first Detroit score, in the first half alone, even while Detroit trailed 0-21 for most of it. Second half: 8 carries for just 5 yards, but 4 more targets, 2 catches/21 yards.”

“Those offensive line injuries are another variable, but Gibbs is a front-end RB1 option who will sit as the RB1 in ranks again in a game that could be the highest-scoring of the week. This is a game where you play all the core pieces on both sides, no questions asked. Even if Detroit runs the ball less as a road underdog, Gibbs has an out as a pass catcher.”

“Lions In the first game without RB David Montgomery , Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs had 34 total touches for 186 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in the team’s win over the Saints. Lions HC Dan Campbell admitted using Gibbs that much isn’t ideal, but he wants to do whatever it takes to win. Campbell also feels Gibbs’ elite conditioning allows this, though he was clear they will monitor his health.”

“Gibbs is the team’s unquestioned bell cow, but if it wants more established depth at the position, it could dip into free agency. The Lions held a late-August visit with Kareem Hunt , Pacheco’s former teammate in Kansas City, though it is unclear if he is still on their radar.”

“Stop me if you’ve heard this one before – Jahmyr Gibbs is really, really good. The top selection in fantasy this year, Gibbs rushed for 156 yards and two touchdowns on 29 carries, also bringing in five receptions for 30 yards as a receiver. An increased workload occurred due to this game heading into overtime, but head coach Dan Campbell seems confident that Gibbs can shoulder this many touches as necessary, though it isn’t ideal.”

“Ownership Notes Quarterback Jared Goff 11.7%: Detroit carries one of the highest team totals, but Gibbs can steal the TDs.”

“In the 25 career games in which Gibbs has played 60% or more of the team snaps, he has averaged 20.3 PPR points per game.”

“However, the touchdowns could run exclusively through Gibbs. He’s finally freed from the clutches of a committee with David Montgomery leaving town, and Detroit has one of the highest totals on the slate. While I wouldn’t be overweight on Gibbs this week, he does need to be included in your player pool for the pure slate-breaking potential that would leave your lineups null and void if you don’t have any shares.”

“For example, Jahmyr Gibbs finished last season with 328.4 total fantasy points , which should tell you just about everything you need to know about the kind of production he is capable of bringing to your team.”

“Speaking of positional advantage, Trey McBride is averaging 15.4 half-PPR points per game and leads all tight ends in targets and receptions. It’s all McBride and Michael Wilson in Arizona, with these two accounting for nearly 60% of the target share. With 10+ targets in all three games this year, McBride’s fantasy floor is elite.”

“ARI @ SF (SF-8.5, O/U 47.5) Trey McBride is the only Arizona Cardinal that you can start with confidence this week, as Jeremiyah Love has only seen 27 opportunities in two weeks on a bad offense.”

“The apple of Brissett’s eye all afternoon, McBride led the team in targets with 13, catching nine passes for 95 yards and a score in an upset victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. McBride will look to keep the train a’ rollin’ in a more difficult matchup at home against Seattle next week. Stud:”

“Star TE Trey McBride had nine for 95 and the score, while veteran WR Kendrick Bourne racked up eight catches for 75 yards. First-round RB Jeremiyah Love got in the end zone for the first time in his career, while WRs Michael Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr. also chipped in with big plays. Arizona has pretty solid weapons but it’s notable that the Cardinals had as much success as they did against a Chargers defense that was No. 5 in total defense last year and returned most of the unit.”

“While Trey McBride is a must-start, there are serious questions around the rest of the Cardinals.”

“Brock Bowers , Colston Loveland , and Trey McBride are the obvious examples heading into this season.”

“Trey McBride (TE – ARI) Trey McBride has a top-20 ADP after catching 126 passes for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns last season.”

“Trey McBride (TE – ARI) Whether you prefer Brock Bowers or Trey McBride doesn’t really matter. Neither should be drafted this high. Last season, McBride averaged 18.6 PPR points per game, and Bowers averaged 15.5 in 2024, the better season of his two years in the NFL.”

“Taking a look at the top options from last season, McBride averaged 11.2 fantasy points per game, and Bowers averaged 9.4 points per game.”

“Cardinals TE Trey McBride has become a prolific fantasy scorer.”

“In full-PPR formats, running backs and wide receivers split the top 10 in points per game 50/50, while running backs made up 10 of the top 20 spots in those leagues ( Trey McBride was in there as a tight end).”

“Let’s use last season’s leading TE scorer, Trey McBride , as an example. He scored 315.9 PPR fantasy points last season. In TE-premium, where he gets an extra half-point for each of his 126 receptions, McBride scored 378.9 fantasy points.”
