Michael Crabtree catches 3 touchdowns for Raiders in victory
Oakland Raiders wide receiver Michael Crabtree caught 6 passes (6 targets) for 80 yards and 3 touchdowns in Week 2 against the New York Jets.
What It Means:
After not being targeted in the red zone once in the opener, Crabtree made up for it in Week 2, scoring from one and two yards out while also hauling in a 26-yarder for good measure. His 6 targets were tied with Amari Cooper and Jared Cook for most on the Raiders in the victory. Not too shabby for someone who just celebrated their 30th birthday on Saturday. Next up is a road visit with the Washington Redskins in Week 3.
Per numberFire Live, Crabtree finished with 8.73 Reception Net Expected Points in Week 2, meaning a league average wide receiver would have scored 8.73 fewer points than he did if put in similar situations. His 29.0 FanDuel points far exceeded what our models expected (12.9).
