Overview
- NFL.com and ClutchPoints published a coordinated Week 6 Start 'Em/Sit 'Em package on Wednesday that uses matchup metrics, All-22 film and Next Gen Stats to guide lineup choices.
- Brock Purdy is named an unquestionable start because he ranks among the league leaders in passer rating and touchdown passes and draws a favorable matchup versus Washington.
- Bo Nix is singled out as the Week 6 sit due to very low yards per attempt, a negative completion percentage over expected and a tough matchup against Seattle's stingy pass defense.
- Streamers differ by outlet: NFL.com calls the Kansas City Chiefs D/ST the top waiver add after their bye versus the Chargers while ClutchPoints highlights the New England Patriots D/ST against the Jets.
- The guides also push matchup starts for Marquise Golden and Cam Skattebo, warn against rostering the Eagles D/ST, and stress that injuries to corners and receivers could change final Week 6 decisions.
