Fantasy Football Week 6 bold prediction No. 4: Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua combine forces

Jonathan Taylor wasn't the only star player to return to the field last week as Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp did as well. Kupp did what he does, catching eight passes for 118 yards.

Puka Nacua, one of the biggest stories of fantasy this season, has thrived with Kupp out. Many of his detractors have pointed to Kupp being out of the lineup as the reason for that. But even with Kupp back last week, Nacua still caught seven passes for 71 yards and a touchdown.

This week against the Arizona Cardinals, they will combine to put up even bigger numbers than that. Kupp is still a PPR monster but Nacua is not going anywhere. Play both of these guys with confidence.

Bold prediction: Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua combine for 20 receptions, 225 yards and 3 TDs
