NFL Weekly Preview Week 9 2023: Key Injuries, Difference Makers & Projected Upsets
2 years ago - Sportingbase
The ninth week of the 2023 National Football League season is just hours away. Here are the key injuries, difference makers and projected upsets.
NFL Injuries
We have already discussed the fact that Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins of Barrington, Illinois is out with an Achilles tendon tear, and acquired quarterback Josh Dobbs of Alpharetta, Georgia from the Arizona Cardinals at the traded deadline. Other NFL injuries for week nine include New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (hamstring), Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor (rib), Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett (out for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament), and Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring).
Fantasy Stars
There is expected to be a great game on Sunday in Frankfurt, Germany as the Kansas City Chiefs are facing the Miami Dolphins. Both teams have records of six wins and two losses. Expect Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to have a big day. Early projections are 291 passing yards, 22 rushing yards, and three touchdowns.
The top rated wide receiver is Ja’Marr Chase of the Cincinnati Bengals, who is projected to get seven catches for 97 yards and one touchdown against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night. The top rated running back is Alvin Kamara of the New Orleans Saints, who is projected to get 105 total yards (70 rushing yards and 35 receiving yards) and one touchdown against the Chicago Bears.
Projected Upsets
There are a lot of fascinating games this weekend, and don’t expect too many blowouts. The teams I like to deliver upsets are the Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants, Los Angeles Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Washington Commanders. I actually put down a $10 parlay bet on these six teams, and if all teams win, there is a payout of $1614!
