Patrick Mahomes II

Coming off his second QB1 finish on a week this season, Mahomes has one of the hardest matchups ahead. Not only is the Texans' defense elite, but this game is massive for both teams as they try to scrap their way into a wild-card spot. We have seen the Texans stifle the league's best, most notably, holding Josh Allen to eight fantasy points on Thursday Night Football two weeks ago. On the season, they are allowing the fewest fantasy points to QBs per game. Then again, it is these must-win games that bring the best out of Mahomes. As a result, we have a real dilemma of an unstoppable force and an immovable object. I'd temper expectations for Mahomes, moving him into low-end QB1 territory.
