Week 10 Recap: Seattle and Detroit Hang 44 as the Rams Win the Week's Shootout

Week 10 had two offenses scoring 44 points. Seattle put 44 on Arizona at home, and Detroit matched that number on the road in Washington, beating the Commanders 44-22. The other result worth noting came in Miami, where the Dolphins beat Buffalo 30-13. Elsewhere, the Rams, Chargers, Saints, Ravens, Jets, Texans, Colts, Patriots and Bears all won, and two games finished 10-7.

The blowout was Seattle 44, Arizona 22, a 22-point margin. Sam Darnold didn't need much volume, going 10-of-12 for 178 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Zach Charbonnet handled the ground work with 83 yards and a score on 14 carries, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba turned five catches into 93 yards and a touchdown. On the losing side, Trey McBride was the bright spot for fantasy managers with 9 catches for 127 yards and a TD. Jacoby Brissett threw 44 times for 258 yards and two scores, and Emari Demercado ripped off 64 yards on only four carries.

The nailbiter was Denver 10, Las Vegas 7, and it wasn't pretty. Bo Nix went 16-of-28 for 150 yards with one touchdown and two picks. Pat Bryant led the Broncos in receiving with a single 43-yard grab, while J.K. Dobbins did the steady work with 77 yards on 18 carries. For the Raiders, Geno Smith managed 143 yards and an interception. Ashton Jeanty got 19 carries for 60 yards and scored the team's only touchdown, and Tyler Lockett led the receivers with 5 catches for 44 yards. Philadelphia's 10-7 win in Green Bay was just as tight.

The shootout was the Rams' 42-26 win in San Francisco, with 68 combined points. Matthew Stafford threw for 280 yards and four touchdowns, Kyren Williams scored twice on 73 rushing yards, and Davante Adams added 77 yards and a score. Mac Jones was very efficient in the loss, completing 33 of 39 passes for 319 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. George Kittle caught 9 passes for 84 yards and a TD, and Brian Robinson Jr. punched in a rushing score.

Fantasy takeaways: Stafford, Williams and Adams all scored in a 42-point game, and the Rams offense is the kind of stack DFS players should target. McBride caught nine passes even as his team lost by 22, so his volume holds up in any game script. Charbonnet scored and Smith-Njigba made big plays on limited targets, which makes Seattle's skill players worth playing in good matchups. Kittle's nine catches give him a reliable floor. In Denver and Las Vegas, the passing games were very weak. Jeanty is still worth starting because of his 19 carries and the touchdown, but nobody else from that game should be on your radar until those offenses improve.
