Quarterbacks
Joe Burrow ($6.8K) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Burrow returns home in a matchup with this week’s highest total (51.5 points). Jacksonville’s offense should push a much-improved Cincinnati defense, and this game features multiple stacking opportunities.
Trevor Lawrence ($5.9K) @ Cincinnati Bengals
Lawrence gave up a sure rushing touchdown last week, and he already has seven passing scores despite not attempting 30 passes in a game yet. More volume should be there Sunday in a matchup with this week’s highest total. The Bengals have a greatly improved rush defense this season with running backs averaging just 68.3 rushing yards over the first three games. Moreover, Bengals’ opponents have the NFL’s second-highest pass rate (67.7%).
C.J. Stroud ($5.7K) vs. Dallas Cowboys
Stroud is coming off a poor game, but volume was part of the problem. He returns home this week, where his YPA has jumped a full yard throughout his career (Stroud’s TD% has also seen a big boost when playing in Houston). The Cowboys have ceded the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this year despite a league-low pass rate (44.5%) against. The Texans struggle to run and are small dogs in a matchup with a 48.5-point total. Stroud is a sneaky play this week, when he’s expected to get Nico Collins back.
Others: Josh Allen ($7.7K), Patrick Mahomes ($6.5K), Kyler Murray ($5.3K)
