The Buffalo Bills are looking to stay perfect in NFL Week 4.
The team is 3-0 after knocking off the Texans, Lions, and Chargers so far. Now, they’ll play the Patriots as they look to pick up their first division win of the season.
In Week 3, Josh Allen didn’t have his best day through the air. The star quarterback threw for 204 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions. However, from a fantasy football perspective, Allen still performed well considering he rushed for two more scores.
James Cook and D.J. Moore also had solid performances in Week 3, so will they carry that momentum forward? Let’s take a look at Yahoo! Sports’ projections for the Bills’ stars in Week 4.

Projected Fantasy Points: 23.41
Allen is a fantasy football monster, and he’s expected to produce again in Week 4. The Patriots aren’t the best matchup, as only four teams give up fewer points to quarterbacks on average.
However, Allen is not matchup-dependent and should be started every week. There could be less rushing upside this week after Allen took a shot to his knee at the end of Week 3, but he should still make enough plays to be a solid start.

Projected Fantasy Points: 15.33
James Cook has had two straight 100-yard rushing performances. Last weekend, Cook ended with 19.40 fantasy points, and that was without catching a single pass.
The Patriots are middle-of-the-road against running backs, so Cook could be in for a big day. There’s also the fact that Allen may not want to run as much as he normally does, so Cook should have some opportunities to score down at the goal line.
D.J. Moore

Projected Fantasy Points: 11.13
D.J. Moore had a nice bounceback in Week 3 after a disappointing Week 2. The receiver got banged up against the Lions and ended with negative fantasy points in Week 2, but he bounced back with 9.70 points in Week 3.
The Patriots have given up the 15th most fantasy points to receivers, so this isn’t a terrible matchup. There are probably better receivers to start, but Moore isn’t a horrible flex option this weekend.
