Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy looked competent in leading the team to a 20-17 overtime win over the Cowboys in Week 8, but that doesn't mean there is much here for Fantasy owners to look for.
McCoy, a 59.9 percent passer for his career, completed 25 of 30 passes Monday, giving him an 85.7 completion percentage over parts of two games with the Redskins. That is great, but certainly not sustainable for a player who has completed 59.9 percent of his passes in his career. McCoy has effectively managed the game plan, but there is little reason to think he can be a long-term starter for Washington.
In fact, the 16 Fantasy points he managed in Week 8 might be the high point of his season, with Robert Griffin III's impending return. McCoy is one of the most-viewed players in CBSSports.com leagues as of Tuesday afternoon, but there isn't much upside in actually adding him at this point.
