One aspect of Thursday's game that's being overlooked, imo, is how George Pickens lackadaisical route running really hurt the Cowboys in some key moments (little attempt to pick Cooper DeJean on the 4th down throw to CeeDee Lamb).
Fantasy Impact:
Of course, this is just one writer's opinion but something he noticed. He went on to point out when Pickens' isn't the primary or secondary option, "his route running effort went into the dumpster." Owning said it hurt the Cowboys because Pickens was "not stressing the defense to create openings for others in those situations." It's hard to tell if this could have a direct affect on fantasy. In the end, the team could take Pickens off the field for plays where he may not be involved, and that's never a good thing.
