There are many tough decisions, but not many are tougher than whether you should start or fade a player for DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports). This article will make these decisions easier than harder. Read up and enjoy three fantasy football stats to know about for each NFL Week 7 game!
Fantasy Football Stats for Every NFL Week 7 Matchup
New Orleans Saints vs Arizona Cardinals
In the three home games this season, the Cardinals have not gotten an interception. They also have allowed the quarterback to have 250 or more total yards, and two of them have gotten top-five finishes for the week.
Alvin Kamara is on a current two-game streak of having 100 total yards and no touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have allowed an RB to have 100 total yards and a touchdown in two of the last three games.
The Cardinals wide receiver room went through massive changes since we last saw them play. DeAndre Hopkins is coming back from suspension, Marquise Brown is out for the majority of the season and they traded for Robbie Anderson. The best way to have a get-right game is against the team who has allowed the most points to WRs in the last three weeks, including a 100-yard WR in each game of that span.
Cleveland Browns vs Baltimore Ravens
The Browns have allowed two rushing touchdowns to running backs for three straight weeks. They are also the only team in the league to allow 10 or more total touchdowns to RBs this season. The last time the Ravens scored multiple rushing scores with their running backs was in Week 6 against the Chargers last season.
Amari Cooper is averaging two receptions for 13 yards and zero touchdowns on five targets in his two games on the road this season. In their last two games at home, the Ravens have not allowed a wide receiver to have more than 65 yards.
In both games against the Browns last year, no Ravens wide receiver scored a touchdown. The Browns have not allowed a wide receiver to score a touchdown in three of the last four games.

In Christian McCaffrey’s last two starts against the Buccaneers, he was held under 100 total yards but scored multiple touchdowns.

The Bengals have not allowed a quarterback to have 245 total yards in five games this season. Marcus Mariota has not gone over 245 total yards since Week 1, but that has not stopped him, as he has finished as a top 15 QB for three of those games, and has finished in the top 10 for the week in two straight games.
Detroit Lions vs Dallas Cowboys

The Giants are on an 11-game streak of allowing a running back to score more than 10 points in a game in PPR scoring. That is music to Travis Etienne’s ears, as he has scored more than 10 points in his past two games, despite barely out-touching James Robinson.
Indianapolis Colts vs Tennessee Titans
The Titans have allowed a quarterback to throw for 300+ yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the past three games.

The Jets are one of four defenses to have a fumble recovery or interception in every game this season. The Broncos have either thrown an interception or lost a fumble in four games this season.
Zach Wilson has not finished QB10 or higher in any game this season. It doesn’t look any better as the Broncos have not allowed a QB to finish in the top 15 in any game this season.
The Broncos are one of three teams to play three games and not allow a receiving touchdown to a wide receiver in that same three-week span. Meanwhile, the Jets WR core has not gone over 100 yards in a game combined in the past two games.
Houston Texans vs Las Vegas Raiders
The Raiders have allowed a quarterback to score 19 or more points in fantasy in every game this year. Davis Mills has not scored more than 16 points in any game this season.

Pittsburgh Steelers vs Miami Dolphins
The Steelers have allowed a WR to score 15 or more points in PPR scoring in every game this season. Tyreek Hill has scored more than 15 points in PPR scoring in three games this season.
In Weeks 1-3, Tua Tagovailoa finished as QB6 in that span, he’s expected to come back and start for this game. He gets an easy opponent in his return, as the Steelers have allowed the second most passing yards this season and in three of the last four games, the Steelers have allowed a QB12 or higher.
In the last five weeks, there has been only one team to not register an interception, the Miami Dolphins. In Mitchell Trubisky’s four starts this season, he has thrown an interception in two of those games.
