Fantasy Football Player Notes

Kirko Chainz has the Raiders undefeated as the QB11 in fantasy points per game. Yes, I'm as surprised as you are by that last statement. Cousins has been playing good football. Among 31 qualifying passers, he ranks 16th in yards per attempt, 14th in passing success rate, 18th in highly accurate throw rate, and ninth in catchable target rate. He'll have his hands full with a surprisingly stout Chiefs' pass defense. Kansas City has allowed the third-fewest yards per attempt, the fourth-lowest passing success rate, and the fourth-lowest CPOE. While Spags has been in his bag with the coverages, he has only been able to muster the 15th-best quick pressure rate while standing at 13th-best in pressure rate. Cousins will have to operate quickly with the ball in his hands this week.
