Fantasy football sizzlers, fizzlers: Jets' Elijah Moore soaring, and scoring

Tony Holm

These players saw their fantasy values increase or decrease most based on their performances in Week 11:

Sizzlers

WR Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Vikings: The Randy Moss comparisons may not be too far off. Coming off a 143-yard receiving game against the Chargers, Jefferson followed that gem with a 169-yard performance with a pair of touchdowns against Green Bay.

WR Elijah Moore, New York Jets: With Moore, the Jets are getting exactly that. The rookie second-round draft pick has scored in three consecutive games, and this past week he erupted for a career-best 141 receiving yards. Moore has seen 25 targets over his last three games; his usage and opportunity are sky-high right now.

Jets rookie Elijah Moore caught eight of his 11 targets from QB Joe Flacco in Week 11 for 141 yards and a touchdown.

TE Zach Ertz, Arizona Cardinals: Colt McCoy peppered Ertz with nine targets, good for eight receptions, 88 yards and two touchdowns. As he has acclimated himself to this new Arizona offense, his usage has also continued to climb.

QB Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers: Newton continues to turn back the clock in his former home, completing 21-of-27 passes for 189 yards and two touchdowns. He added yet another rushing touchdown as well, completing a very solid fantasy day.

QB Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles: It is never pretty, but Philadelphia is winning with Hurts. He had just 13 completions but as usual, found a way to offset his meager passing totals by rushing 18 times for 69 yards and three touchdowns.

Fizzlers

RB Khalil Herbert, Chicago Bears: The rookie's role was in question with the return of David Montgomery. We found out quickly vs. Baltimore when Herbert had one rushing attempt for no yards.

RB Zack Moss, Buffalo Bills: Game script worked against him with Buffalo falling behind early, but Moss totaled just five rushing yards and was unable to convert his one target in the passing game. 

WR Michael Pittman Jr., Indianapolis Colts: Indianapolis likes to spread the ball around and with the return of T.Y. Hilton to the lineup, Pittman's stats have degraded. His last three weeks have been on a steady decline, dipping to a two-reception effort for 23 yards receiving this past week. Pittman also faces two tough secondaries come fantasy playoff time (New England and Arizona) which is not ideal.

WR Bryan Edwards, Las Vegas Raiders: Coming off his most productive game of the season, Edwards was not targeted on Sunday and had one rushing attempt for zero yards.

TE Dan Arnold, Jacksonville Jaguars: It's a reminder that Jacksonville isn't going to win many games this year. While Arnold has been the talk of the town at tight end these last three weeks, he vanished in a 30-10 loss to San Francisco without registering a single target.
