Dallas Cowboys

Darren McFadden/Joseph Randle/ Christine Michael (Running Backs): Darren McFadden had a great game solidifying his place atop the Cowboys running back position. Randle left the game early with an injured oblique; he only had 2 carries for 24 yards. Michael who had been talked about as the next leader of this backfield only had 5 carries for 18 yards and 1 catch for 2 yards. McFadden got a monstrous workload gaining 152 yards on 29 carries and a touchdown. He also hauled in 2 targets for 10 yards. McFadden should be in line for the lion's share of the carries next week against the Seahawks.

Terrance Williams (Wide Receiver): Terrance Williams returned to fantasy relevance catching 4 out of 7 targets for 70 yards. He did not get into the end zone but it was a good showing from one of the better players this struggling offense has to offer.

Jason Witten (Tight End): Witten had his typical multi catch game against the Giants however was held out of the end zone. Witten caught 6 out of 8 targets for 73 yards.

New York Giants

Odell Beckham JR (Wide Receiver): Beckham had his quietest game of the season. Beckham was targeted 6 times however could only haul in 4 of them for 35 yards. Beckham will have a better matchup in week 8 but he is clearly struggling to perform like he did last year.

Shane Vereen/Orleans Darkwa/Rashad Jennings (Running Backs): Darkwa was the dark horse running back that Tom Coughlin selected to lead this committee. Darkwa finished the day with 8 carries for 48 yards and a touchdown. Vereen had only 4 carries but gained 56 yards and also hauled in his only target for 6 yards. Rashad Jennings barley showed up in week 7 with only 5 carries for 19 yards.
