Fantasy Football Player Notes

Jordan Love is coming off his fourth QB1 outing of the season. Last week, he finished with 234 passing yards and four passing scores as the QB2 for the week against Detroit. Overall, Love is the QB17 in fantasy points per game. Among 42 qualifying passers, Love ranks seventh in yards per attempt, seventh in passing touchdowns (tied), 12th in catchable target rate, and fifth in hero throw rate. Last week, Chicago got Kyler Gordon and Jaylon Johnson back, but I still view this as a middle-of-the-road pass defense at best. Since Week 9, Chicago has allowed the 14th-highest yards per attempt, the seventh-most passing yards per game, and the ninth-highest CPOE. Love could be a QB1 again this week.
