Fantasy Football Player Notes

C.J. Stroud is the QB21 in fantasy points per game with three QB1 outings this season. I thought he could squeak out another last week against the Raiders, but Stroud disappointed with only 187 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and 5.3 yards per attempt. That was the third time this season that he has been held under 200 yards passing. Among 45 qualifying quarterbacks, Stroud ranks 19th in passing yards per game and yards per attempt, 31st in highly accurate throw rate, and 28th in hero throw rate. This looks like another low-end QB2 week for Stroud. Since Week 12, Los Angeles has ranked 15th in yards per attempt while allowing the fourth-fewest passing touchdowns, the third-lowest passer rating, and the 13th-lowest CPOE.
