Patrick Mahomes II has been slumping. As the QB17 in fantasy points per game, he hasn't had more than 17 fantasy points in any game since Week 2. Among 34 qualifying passers, he is tenth in yards per attempt, sixth in passing success rate, 18th in passing touchdown rate, and 23rd in highly accurate throw rate. Mahomes hasn't thrown for a touchdown since Week 4. I don't see this week as the matchup where Mahomes turns it around. Over their last five games, Denver has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per attempt, the fifth-lowest passing touchdown rate, the ninth-lowest passing success rate, and the third-lowest fantasy points per dropback.
