Joe Burrow
QB - Cincinnati Bengals
Availability
Joe Burrow will start for the Bengals in Week 18 against the Browns. HC Zac Taylor said Burrow gives them the "best chance to win."
Fantasy Impact
It's true, Burrow gives them the best chance to win and to end the season on a high note. However, one must question whether starting Burrow in a meaningless Week 18 game is a good choice. Regardless of the validity of the idea, he's a strong start.
Joe Burrow completed 24-of-31 passes for 305 yards and two touchdowns in the Bengals 37-14 win over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Burrow picked a part the Cardinals secondary all afternoon that continues to be battling huge injuries to starters. He was taken out of the game early in the fourth quarter. He'll likely play in Week 18 against the Browns to close the season.
Joe Burrow completed 25-of-32 passing attempts for 309 yards and four touchdowns in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Miami Dolphins.
Fantasy Impact
Burrow was surgical in Cincinnati's blowout win over the Dolphins on Sunday. He threw for 300+ yards and four touchdowns while not turning the ball over at all, which left him with a dominant fantasy total. He will likely continue to be a good fantasy option over the remaining couple of games in the regular season.
Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Joe Burrow will play the rest of the season despite the team being eliminated from the playoffs.
Fantasy Impact
Burrow struggled in Sunday's shutout loss against the Ravens with two interceptions. He'll look to bounce back in Week 16 against the Dolphins.
Joe Burrow completed 25-of-39 passes for 225 yards and two interceptions in the Bengals 24-0 loss to the Ravens. He rushed for five yards on two carries.
Fantasy Impact
Burrow was able to get the Bengals' offense moving consistently, but would stall out anytime they crossed midfield. One of Burrow's interceptions were returned for a pick six in the loss. Fantasy managers should expect the Bengals to discuss possibly sitting Burrow with the team officially eliminated from the playoffs.
