Fantasy Football Week 7 Recap: Houston Texans at Miami Dolphins, Arian Foster, DeAndre Hopkins, Nate Washington, Ryan Tannehill, Lamar Miller, Jarvis Landry, Rishard Matthews

Houston Texans

Arian Foster (Running Back): Arian Foster owners got a good day out of the veteran running back however it will be the last time they see him on the field for quite some time. Foster racked up 59 rushing yards and a touchdown on 18 carries and also caught 5 out of his 7 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown before going down with a torn Achilles injury. The Achilles tear will effectively end Foster's season and possibly his career.

DeAndre Hopkins/Nate Washington (Wide Receivers): Hopkins finally had a down game giving way to Nate Washington in garbage time. Hopkins was only able to haul in 6 out of his 12 targets for 50 yards, by the time the Texans were really throwing the ball with consistency, it was garbage time. Washington excelled in the cleanup hauling in 9 out of his 16 targets for 127 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Miami Dolphins

Ryan Tannehill (Quarterback): Tannehill had his best game of 2015 hands down. Tannehill completed 18 out of 19 passes for 282 yards, 4 touchdowns, and had a perfect passer rating of 158.3. Tannehill and this Dolphins offense have been reenergized by Dan Campbell and his balanced play calling.

Lamar Miller (Running Back): Miller has been a monster for the past two weeks since the Dolphins have made him the primary bell cow in this offense. Miller finished the game with 14 carries for 175 yards, a touchdown, and caught all 3 of his targets for 61 yards and another touchdown. Miller should continue to earn his first round status as he is finally seeing a solid number of carries to be effective.

Jarvis Landry/Rishard Matthews (Wide Receiver): The most consistent aspect of this Dolphins team has been these two wide receivers. Landry and Matthews have been dominant for most of the year however this is one of the most productive games yet. Matthews hauled in all three of his targets for 75 yards and a touchdown while Landry caught 5 out of 5 targets for 83 yards and 2 touchdowns.
