Two Cowboys crash the top four as McMillan steals Week 4 by 3.9

CeeDee Lamb (41.3) and Javonte Williams (31.3) both finished top four, but Tetairoa McMillan's 45.2 on Sunday night took the week.

Dallas put two players in the top four of Week 4, and both of them did it on the same afternoon in Houston. CeeDee Lamb caught 17 of 21 targets for 41.3 PPR points. Javonte Williams scored three times for 31.3. The Cowboys needed every bit of it to beat the Texans 34–30.

One player did better. Tetairoa McMillan posted 45.2 for Carolina on Sunday night, 3.9 points clear of Lamb, and took the week from him in the final window.

Two Cowboys, one shootout

Lamb and Williams got there in very different ways. Lamb did it through volume: 17 catches, 189 yards and a touchdown, with a long of just 30. He needed no big play. The targets kept coming, and in PPR every one he caught counted.

Williams did it near the goal line. His 19 carries went for only 62 yards, but three of them ended in the end zone, and he added 5 catches on 5 targets for 21 yards. Without the touchdowns it was an ordinary day. With them, he finished fourth on the board.

The other side kept pace. Houston's Nico Collins caught 7 of 8 targets for 118 yards and 2 touchdowns, good for 30.8 and sixth place in a losing effort. Three of the week's top six came out of one game, and the Dallas-Houston matchup put up 103.4 points among them alone.

The best quarter of the week

When Sunday's early games kicked off, Collins struck first with 14.7 points in a single quarter. Zay Flowers answered with 17.2 in a quarter before halftime on his way to 25.8. Williams scored twice to reach 23.4 before his third touchdown.

Then Lamb took over. He scored 20.9 points in the fourth quarter alone, the biggest single quarter of the week, and finished at 41.3. That one quarter cleared 20 points, a mark only 33 players reached in a full game all week.

Lamb's number held through the late window. Kenneth Walker III ran 22 times for 177 yards and 2 touchdowns, with a 76-yard long, and reached 30.9 in Kansas City's 30–27 win at Las Vegas. His teammate Tyquan Thornton turned 5 catches into 111 yards and 2 scores for 28.1. Neither got close to the top.

McMillan runs him down at night

Carolina's Sunday night win over Detroit changed that. McMillan and Chuba Hubbard both started fast, and McMillan scored 20.5 points in a single quarter before halftime. By the fourth quarter he had 39.2 and Lamb's lead was down to a couple of points.

He got past it. McMillan finished with 14 catches on 16 targets, 192 yards and 2 touchdowns as the Panthers won 32–26. He caught 87.5 percent of his targets and turned them into the week's top score. Hubbard added 20 carries for 122 yards and 2 touchdowns, worth 25.9.

For fantasy managers, the McMillan and Lamb lines look alike for a reason. Both lived on short and intermediate catches, both had a long of 30 or 32, and both topped 185 yards on targets alone. In PPR, steady volume like that put both of them ahead of every running back on the board.

Monday sets the cutline

The Rams had already put two into the top 10. Kyren Williams went for 36.7 on 16 carries for 80 yards and 2 touchdowns plus 10 catches for 67 yards, third on the week. Puka Nacua caught 9 of 12 targets for 125 yards and ran in a touchdown for 27.7 in the 24–20 win at Philadelphia.

Monday night decided the last spot. Bijan Robinson had 19.8 early, 22.3 at halftime and 26.4 late in Atlanta's 45–24 win at New Orleans. He finished with 145 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns, 27.7 points, tying Nacua and claiming tenth. That made 27.7 the line for the top 10 this week, and six players cleared 30.

What it means

McMillan owns the week, but the Dallas story is the one to carry forward: Lamb drew 21 targets, and Williams got the carries that ended in the end zone. Both showed up in a game decided in the final quarter, and Lamb did his biggest damage in it.
