handled a high-equity fantasy football role in the Bucs backfield. White was on the field for 61% of the snaps and ran a route on almost half of the dropbacks.
He was targeted on 41% of those routes, good for a 21.4% team target share overall. Any running back with a pulse is going to be a factor in the passing game withunder center. White had plenty of receiving skills coming into the league so this was an expected development.
Watson enjoyed another strong outing with 110 yards on four catches with a score. He got most of that on one 63-yard scamper after getting open on a crossing route. His speed is legitimately freaky in the open field.The one-time Steelers receiver was nicknamed The Alien for his freaky exploits down the field and in space. That's exactly how Watson is thriving right now.Watson doesn't have a complete game right now.
Perhaps this is the start of a small regression for Smith. Maybe it’s not. I don’t really care either way because he’s proven he’s a starting quarterback and deserves the benefit of the doubt to this point.I’ll also add Jimmy Garoppolo to the group of guys who played a little worse than the box score indicated. Of course, he’d have that kind of game right after I say, “You know, I think Jimmy is playing the best ball of his career,” at just about every holiday gathering.
The McCaffrey one is particularly interesting. My theory is that Garoppolo has been willing to hang in the pocket half a beat longer because he knows his checkdown is someone as good as CMC. We could see him revert to some old bad habits if McCaffrey misses any serious time. But we aren’t in that scary territory quite yet.
