Josh Allen on path to MVP, Dalton Kincaid looking like league winner and more fantasy football takeaways from Lions-Bills
Scott Pianowski recaps the fantasy football carnival on TNF in Week 2 between Detroit and Buffalo.
Fantasy football enthusiasts had limited success in Week 1 of NFL games in the Island Games, but Buffalo’s high-scoring 41-31 win over Detroit in Week 2 provided a few exceptions. Josh Allen led the way, recording 248 passing yards, 3 passing touchdowns, and 69 rushing yards, with an additional 2 touchdowns on the ground. His performance earned him 40.82 fantasy points.
Quarterback Alex Cook contributed 139 total yards and scored one touchdown, putting him at 20.4 fantasy points. Outbound receiver Dalton Kincaid had 7 receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown, securing 19 fantasy points. Keon Coleman collected 6 receptions for 63 yards, earning him 9.3 fantasy points. Josh Palmer added 1 reception, 43 yards, and a touchdown, netting 10.8 fantasy points.
Running back DJ Moore had no receptions and a single carry for -1 yard, resulting in a -0.10 fantasy point value. The Detroit secondary, weakened by injuries and Terrion Arnold's situation, struggled against Buffalo's offense. Despite this, the Lions' offense dominated, setting a favorable fantasy football formula. Looking ahead, Dalton Kincaid's healthy return could make him a standout fantasy player, given his impressive performances and increased playing time this season.
