Trust = spike production for that player
Quarterback
Dak Prescott (TRUST): Prescott has given us a couple of hiccups of late, passing for 6.0 yards per pass attempt or fewer in three of the past five game, but still has a pair of top-three scoring weeks orbiting those performances to go with a large body of work in which he has seven QB1 scoring weeks.
The Cowboys will look to finish more drives this week in a big matchup against Washington. Washington has played much better coming out of their bye, but that has a lot to do with playing keep away offensively. We still have seen Cam Newton (26.2 points) and Russell Wilson (19.5 points) find solid fantasy production against them over this four-game stretch and they still rank dead last in the NFL in points allowed per pass attempt (0.52) to go along with a league-high 6.0% touchdown rate. Playing a fragile style of game planning, Washington will be put to the test here if they cannot control time of possession like they have the past four weeks.
