Here’s what we’re rolling with for Week 8 of the NFL season.

Christian Kirk has emerged as Trevor Lawrence’s No. 1 target in the passing game. While Calvin Ridley has struggled after serving his long suspension, Kirk has been incredibly consistent since a dud Week 1 performance versus the Colts.

Since that game, he has put up 110 yards versus the Chiefs, 84 yards against the Falcons, 78 yards versus the Bills and 90 yards last week against the Saints.

Kirk has been a big play waiting to happen and against a Steelers secondary that has been playing below average, and has struggled against elite receivers this season, I don’t think Kirk should have any problem going over 55 receiving yards.

A.J. Brown has been on a historic run over his last five games and I don’t see his production slowing down anytime soon.

Washington’s defence plays man coverage at the second-highest rate this season, which has allowed receivers such as DJ Moore, Stefon Diggs and Drake London to all have big days against this defence.

A.J. Brown leads the NFL with a 50 per-cent target share against man coverage, so I expect him to take full advantage of this matchup. In fact, he already has. Brown went for 175 yards on nine catches against
