Four Vikings drives, four Cook TDs

On Minnesota's first four drives of the game, Dalvin Cook scored a TD on every single one of them. Cook's most impressive TD came on a screen pass in the second half. Cook did a perfect job of setting up his blockers and weaving in and out for the score.

Big Ben to Ebron for the TD

The Steelers continue to force Lamar Jackson into turning the ball over, but until the second half, they haven't been able to capitalize on these turnovers. That changed in the second half when Ben Roethlisberger found Eric Ebron wide open on a crosser.

Hines adds to his TD total

It's a breakout week for the hottest waiver wire pickup in fantasy football after Week 1 -- who had since done next to nothing. That's fantasy football for ya! Nyheim Hines added to his receiving touchdown total with another well-run route near the sideline. You probably haven't heard this much so far in 2020, but Philip Rivers is dealing.

Grant houses punt return for TD

Jakeem Grant is one of the most electric return men in the NFL and he took an 88-yard punt return to the house for Miami -- their second defensive or special teams score of the game. Tua's debut hasn't gone exactly as planned or predicted, but an underrated and stingy Miami defense continues to give the Dolphins a chance to win in nearly every game.

Tua makes up for early fumble with TD pass

Tua is on the board with his first career TD pass! After Dolphins defensive tackle Christian Wilkins dropped into zone coverage and intercepted Jared Goff, Tagovailoa led his first scoring drive of his career. He capped it off with a beautifully-thrown TD pass to DeVante Parker.

Hines with a spinning, leaping TD

Nyheim Hines made arguably the most impressive individual play of the early slate of games so far when he got to the edge, spun back into the field of play and then leaped into the endzone. Hines reached the ball over the goalline for the score.

Not the start Tua hoped for 

In his first offensive possession as the starter for Miami, things didn't go exactly as planned for Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins. Los Angeles' vaunted pass rush got pressure and forced the sack and fumble -- the Rams then recovered and would score a TD a few plays later. This is probably not the highlight you were expecting for Tua's first start; if the Dolphins don't do something fast to block Aaron Donald, this could be a long day.

Hardman takes the push pass all the way

The Chiefs have made the push pass play popular in the NFL, and although plenty of teams have taken their idea and used it themselves, Kansas City still leads the way. The Chiefs got the first TD of this Sunday's slate on the board with a push pass to Mecole Hardman for the TD.

Weather to impact Week 8 games

We're at the time of the year where weather will play a major factor in deciding the point totals and outcomes of this week's slate of games. However, it's important to note that when evaluating the impact of weather on games, it's key to focus in on the wind more than anything else. Having said that, heavy rain/snow can also be a major factor. With that in mind, there are five games on this slate that should be impacted drastically by heavy wind gusts: Ravens-Steelers, Patriots-Bills, Saints-Bears, Raiders-Browns and Vikings-Packers. Bryan DeArdo broke down exactly what to expect from a weather standpoint in all five games, something to keep in mind when setting fantasy lineups and placing bets.
