Impact The Bears handled Air Force with ease, led by Washington's excellent result. The redshirt freshman has jumped to the top of the pecking order in the running back room and should be seriously considered in all fantasy formats moving forward.

Richard Reese - Takes back seat in offense Reese recorded eight carries for 47 yards and one touchdown and reeled in their only target for negative one yard during Saturday's 31-3 victory over Air Force.

Impact Reese played to begin the game but his result paled by comparison to Bryson Washington, who ran fort 106 yards and a touchdown. Reese will be a better fantasy target in games against tougher opponents.

Sawyer Robertson - Convincing in decisive win Robertson was 18-for-24 passing for 248 yards during Saturday's 31-3 win against Air Force. He also had three rushes for five yards with one touchdown.

Impact Although Air Force didn't represent much of a challenge, Robertson's result is cause for re-igniting the quarterback competition for Baylor. Dequan Finn has played adequately but showed some inconsistency to begin the season. Conversely, Robertson was very effective in directing the offense and looks like the better fit at the moment. A change could be imminent, and next week's game against Colorado will prove to be a good litmus test.

Michael Trigg - Targeted six times in loss Trigg was targeted six times and caught four passes for 27 yards in Saturday's 23-12 loss to Utah

Impact Dequan Finn found Trigg more often than any other receiver on the roster, which is encouraging news for the Ole Miss transfer. Baylor's passing game will experience some growing pains, but it appears that Trigg has found a new spot where he'll garner more attention in the offense.

Josh Cameron - Grabs TD pass in loss Cameron caught two passes off of two targets for 59 yards and a touchdown during Baylor's 23-12 loss to Utah.

Impact Cameron was responsible for the sole touchdown against Utah's stingy defense. Transfer quarterback was held to only 115 passing yards in the defeat, which compromised the fantasy effectiveness of his wideouts. Although Cameron is slated as the go-to pass catcher for the Bears, it's too soon to depend on him completely.

Dawson Pendergrass - Logs 69 rushing yards in loss Pendergrass totaled nine rushes for 69 yards during Saturday's 23-12 defeat against Utah.

Impact With Dominic Richardson (undisclosed) limited, Pendergrass handled most of the rushing duties and was one of Baylor's best offensive options in the loss. He'll be a part of the rotation regardless of Richardson's status, but he could have a larger role next week against Air Force if Richardson's health doesn't improve.

SEPTEMBER 8 • ROTOWIRE

Dominic Richardson - Available but limited in loss Richardson (undisclosed) recorded four rushes for 11 yards during Saturday's 23-12 loss versus Utah.

Impact Richardson (undisclosed) was a question mark going into Saturday's contest, and he ended up being very limited, ceding most of the touches to Dawson Pendergrass. Richardson's status will remain up in the air but should crystallize as the week progresses.

SEPTEMBER 8 • ROTOWIRE

Dequan Finn - Struggles in Week 2 loss Finn completed 9 of 21 passes for 115 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 23-12 loss to Utah. He also had 13 rushes for seven yards.

Impact Finn was unable to get much traction against Utah's oppressive defense. The Utes kept the usual dual-threat in the pocket and limited his access to open space, forcing him to try to win the day through the air. He was unsuccessful, completing only nine passes in the loss. Finn won the starting gig handily, so there's no reason to make a move now, but Baylor may face un uphill battle this season if the offense doesn't improve.
