Overview
- USA TODAY tabs Matthew Stafford as a start at Baltimore, citing a Ravens defense battered by injuries and Stafford’s back-to-back 375-yard, three‑TD outings.
- Justin Herbert is recommended at Miami with the Dolphins allowing the third‑most QB fantasy points and the Chargers likely leaning on his arm and legs with their top two running backs out.
- Jordan Love draws a start at Lambeau Field against a Bengals defense allowing 31.2 points per game and high passing volume, supporting multi‑TD upside.
- Sits include Justin Fields versus Denver after the Broncos have yielded a league‑low 15 QB rushing yards through five weeks, and Tua Tagovailoa against the Chargers, who have not allowed more than one passing TD in any game.
- With Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow still expected out and C.J. Stroud unavailable on a Texans bye, managers may seek streamers, with Yahoo’s Touchdown Wire also touting rookie Drake Maye in a favorable dome setting.
