Week 16 was the second week of the fantasy football playoffs and it saw several players deliver big-time performances.On the flip side, some big names struggled in their respective matchups and may have gotten your squad eliminated.Let's take a look at who boomed in Week 16 and who was a bust in standard scoring PPR (point per reception) leagues:

TE T.J. Hockenson (35.9),

The Washington Commanders pulled off the upset of the season in the NFL by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football.The win wasn't without controversy, however, as referees interjected more than fans of either team hoped coming in.The ref show started with Benjamin St-Juste getting flagged for pass interference on DeVonta Smith that preluded a Dallas Goedert touchdown.

The Washington Commanders were on a three game winning streak until they blew a 10 point lead against Kirk Cousins and the Vikings.Minnesota is 8-1 and their only loss was to the Philadelphia Eagles.Washington plays Philly for the second time this season, and will now play them on Monday Night Football.

Week 9 featured one of the greatest fantasy performances of all time and a multitude of disappointments.Let's take a look at who boomed in Week 9 and who was a bust in standard scoring PPR (point per reception) leagues:

RB Joe Mixon (55.1),QB Justin Fields (42.72),WR Davante Adams (36.6), QB Patrick Mahomes (34.14),

New England Patirots head coach Bill Belichick might be trying to make it work with Mac Jones after all.For now, Mac Jones appears to be the starting quarterback for Bill Belichick's New England Patriots.New England replaced an ineffective Cam Newton with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould explained why he believes the Kansas City Chiefs have the advantage over the Philadelphia Eagles and quarterback Jalen Hurts in Super Bowl 57.When it comes to the San Francisco 49ers, they have been very vocal about their thoughts on the Philadelphia Eagles and how the NFC Championship Game went down.

If there's one thing the Dallas Cowboys can learn from the Eagles, it's doing everything possible to put their QB in the best position to succeed.In the last two years, the Eagles used a top-10 pick on DeVonta Smith, and traded the No. 19 overall pick in the 2022 draft, and a third-round pick for Titans receiver AJ Brown.

The Cowboys fell just short against the 49ers for the second consecutive season, but fans can still notch a huge win this weekend thanks to FanDuel Sportsbook's fantastic NFC Championship promo: Bet $5, Win $150 if Deebo Samuel has at least ONE CATCH yard vs. the Eagles!Yup, that's +3000 odds for ONE SINGLE YARD!

The Eagles began the first half with a 10-0 lead.Early in the second half, the Eagles have regained a 10-point lead.The Eagles, who got a field goal with six seconds remaining in the first half to take a 20-17 lead into the locker room, stopped the Cowboys on a three-and-out to open the second half.

After the Eagles took on the Cowboys backup earlier in the season with Cooper Rush, the favor is repaid to Dallas this week, as Jalen Hurts is out with a shoulder injury when Philadelphia travels to Dallas on Saturday afternoon in Week 16.This game was supposed to be Dallas's chance to catch the Eagles in the NFC East, but instead they lost to Jacksonville last week and the Eagles will almost certainly lock up the division over the last three weeks even without Hurts.

The Eagles are the NFC favorite, but they can increase their chances of winning the Super Bowl even more with these trades.The Philadelphia Eagles are undefeated, and stay that way through Week 8. They've had their bye, so they sit at 7-0.If they can win their final 10, they will end the year entirely undefeated, which, while difficult and maybe even unlikely, isn't all that outside of the realm of possibility.

The Cowboys fell to 4-2 and into third place in the NFC East behind the Eagles and the surprising 5-1 Giants.The Eagles intercepted Cooper Rush three times, ending the Cowboys' Cinderella story as the clock struck midnight.The Eagles showed the Cowboys how much they miss Dak Prescott, who has not played since fracturing his right thumb in the season opener.

But the Eagles scored touchdowns on 3 or the final 4 drives to take the game to halftime.Philly's offensive big plays and Washington's defensive propensity to give up big plays were both on display at FedEx Field in a game that Commanders fans will be keen to forget.Their drives ended with 4 punts and a free kick following the safety, plus the final drive of the game that ended with a couple of Jalen Hurts kneeldowns.For Commanders fans, the hope will be that the team can rebound against a Cowboys team that will be without Dak Pescott next week, and then pick up some energy with the hoped-for return of DE Chase Young and the introduction of RB Brian Robinson - both of whom are currently on IR - to the NFL when the Week 5 game against the Titans comes around.
