ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at San Francisco 49ers

Kyler Murray was excellent in a close loss to the Buccaneers last week, throwing for 324 yards, three touchdowns and a pick. He also added 38 yards on the ground. Murray is on pace for 562 yards rushing this season and he’s accounted for five touchdowns over his past two weeks. His ability to supplement his passing totals with rushing production gives him a high fantasy floor each week, and he’s a viable weekly starter because of it.

This week, Murray faces a 49ers defense that has been elite all season but just gave up a pair of touchdowns to Murray two weeks ago. Still, the pressure Murray is likely to face from an elite front-four makes him a little riskier than usual. We have him ranked outside our top-10 this week, making him a viable QB2 or a fringe starter in most leagues.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Kyler Murray did better than expected against a tough 49ers defense. The Cardinals still lost a close game, but Murray finished with 241 yards and two touchdowns without throwing an interception. He also added 34 yards on the ground, turning in a nice day overall. Murray hasn’t lit the world on fire this year, but he’s been a steady option and has 313 yards and two touchdowns rushing on the season, giving him a high floor in most weeks.

This week, Murray should excel against a terrible Tampa Bay defense. The Buccaneers have been surprisingly stout against the run, but they rank 30th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks this year and just allowed five touchdown passes to Russell Wilson on Sunday. Murray should be active in all leagues and has top-level fantasy upside this week.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. San Francisco 49ers

Kyler Murray has struggled two weeks in a row for two very different reasons. In Week 7, he struggled against the Giants as the Cardinals emphasized the running game to a fairly easy victory. Last week, he went up against a tough Saints defense and was held to a 57.6% completion rate on his way to 220 yards. The Cardinals failed to score a touchdown and lost their backup running back to injury in the process.

This week, Murray faces an even larger challenge against a dominant 49ers defense. They forced Kyle Allen into three interceptions last week and they rank first in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks this season. Murray’s ability to run makes him safer than Allen was last week, but fantasy owners should stay away if possible.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at New Orleans Saints

Kyler Murray had a terrible fantasy game against the Giants last week, throwing for only 104 yards as the Cardinals ran all over the defense in a win. Murray added only 28 yards on the ground for easily his worst fantasy performance of the season. He remains a dual-threat option with excellent upside in any given week, however, as he’s run the ball at least 10 times in three straight games.

This week, the Cardinals are unlikely to abandon the passing game against a tougher Saints team. New Orleans is one of the best teams in the league at 6-1 and have won five straight games. They put up 36 points on the Bears last week and should have no trouble carving up the Cardinals’ 28th-ranked scoring defense. Expect Murray to throw a lot and to be a quality option in all fantasy leagues. We have him as a low-end QB1 starter.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at New York Giants

Kyler Murray torched the Falcons last week. He threw for 340 yards and three touchdowns, adding 32 yards on the ground, and obtaining his second career victory. Murray has been exciting to watch and has benefited from facing poor teams in two consecutive games. His ability to run the ball and his high number of pass attempts – fifth in the league – give him considerable upside every game.

This week, Murray faces a Giants defense that ranks 27th in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks and allowed a pair of rushing touchdowns to Tom Brady last week. Murray should light up this defense and is a top option in all league formats as a QB1.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Atlanta Falcons

Kyler Murray took advantage of a nice matchup last week against the Bengals and put up quality numbers on his way to his first career regular-season victory. He threw for 253 yards and while he didn’t throw for a touchdown, he added 93 rushing yards and a score on the ground. Murray now has 189 rushing yards over his past three games, and his ability to pad his passing statistics with production on the ground makes him a high-floor option each week for fantasy owners.

This week, Murray has a great matchup against the Falcons, who were torched by the DeShaun Watson last week to the tune of five touchdowns and 426 passing yards! The Falcons defense is terrible and the Cardinals can’t stop anyone themselves, so this may be a game with a ton of passing production. Start him in all league formats.

ARI QB Kyler Murray - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Cincinnati Bengals

Kyler Murray and the rest of the Cardinals’ offense struggled last week against a healthier Seahawks defense, amassing a mere 10 points and only 321 yards of total offense. Murray had 241 passing yards and a pick-six, though he added 27 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Murray’s dual-threat ability gives him a decent floor in any given week – 96 rushing yards over the past two games – but he’s probably best considered a matchup starter while the offense continues to find itself.

This week, Murray should be active against a Bengals defense that has allowed the 10th-most aFPA to opposing quarterbacks this season and just allowed Mason Rudolph to throw a pair of touchdowns on Monday night and to complete 85.7% of his passes. The Bengals stink, and Murray should benefit. He’s a top streaming option this week and we have him ranked as a low-end QB1.
