| Isaiah Sirois FantasyPros | Burrow scored 24.54 points against the Browns back in Week 2. That's his best fantasy performance to date, however, and he has a median of just 17.52 points per game. That said, the Bengals are attempting a ton of passes, and A.J. Green is righting the ship, so I'm expecting some regression here soon. Burrow is a higher-end QB2 this week. | |
| Zachary Hanshew FantasyPros | To say Rodgers stumbled against Tampa Bay last week would be ... an understatement. This week, the frustrated Rodgers will look to take out his frustrations on a Texans team that has been very average against opposing QBs. Fire up A-Rodg as a top-5 play this week. | It's been a rough couple of weeks for Burrow, as the rook hasn't tossed a TD over his last two games. Still, he buoyed his production with some big air yards and a rushing score, and Burrow has thrown for at least 300 yards in four of his last five games. This week, he'll face a Browns defense that has allowed the fourth-most passing yards (289) this season, vaulting Burrow into top-10 territory for Week 7. |
| Mike Tagliere FantasyPros | There was certainly a stumble in Rodgers' MVP campaign in Week 6 as he struggled without time, as the Bucs sacked him four times and held him to just 4.6 yards per attempt on the day. Considering how well he'd played to this point, we have to shake it off as a bad day, but it's also worth noting teams have opted to go with the run against the Texans, and it's hard to disagree considering their troubles slowing it down. The 52.8 percent pass-rate ranks as the sixth-lowest mark in football. Still, that's not enough to deter you when you find out they've still allowed the fourth-most fantasy points through the air this season. Not only has efficiency been there (0.56 fantasy points per actual pass attempt ranks fourth-highest in NFL), and despite the run-heavy play selection, there are enough plays being run against the Texans (69.3 per game ranks second in the NFL) to allow for plenty of pass attempts. Outside of one game against the Jaguars, the Texans have allowed at least 28 points in every game. When you combine that with the Packers team-implied total of 30.0 points, you should be expecting Rodgers to get back on track, even if Aaron Jones has a massive game. Start Rodgers as a middling QB1 this week. | He's now gone two weeks without throwing a single touchdown, which is not something you want to see with streamers. It wasn't all bad, though, as he hit the 300-yard mark for the fourth time in the last five games, and he also rushed for a touchdown. On the season, he's now thrown for 1,617 yards but with six touchdowns. That amounts to 269.5 yards per touchdown. How improbable is it that he continues that pace? Well, there was no quarterback in the NFL last year who averaged more than 218.4 yards per touchdown. Oddly enough, the quarterback who averaged 218.4 yards per touchdown last year was Andy Dalton, while playing for Zac Taylor. Maybe his playbook can use some work in the red zone. The Browns are not a team who's done well slowing down opposing quarterbacks, as they've allowed a passing touchdown every 133.1 passing yards, including a career-high three touchdowns to Burrow in Week 2. Now, to be fair, Burrow did throw the ball a ridiculous 61 times in that game, something we can't expect again. Don't look now but Burrow has thrown the ball just 66 times over the last two weeks combined. The Browns pass rush has been somewhat mediocre through six games, generating a 5.29 percent sack-rate, which ranks 20th in the NFL and helps Burrow, who's seemingly always under pressure. There are some inconsistencies with both of these teams, which leads to a high-variance streamer. I wouldn't be shocked to see him finish as a high-end QB2 or high-end QB3, so we have to go somewhere in between. He's got a higher ceiling than most in the middling QB2 range but he also has a lower floor. He's got a higher ceiling than most in the middling QB2 range, but he also has a lower floor. |
| Kyle Yates FantasyPros | Rodgers came crashing back down to earth last week, but he should still be viewed as a solid option moving forward. Against the Houston defense that just got torched by Tannehill, Rodgers is a solid QB1 start yet again. | Burrow hasn't put up insane numbers over the past couple of weeks, but he's had a couple of tough matchups back-to-back. Burrow's simply throwing the ball too much though to not be considered for fantasy football on a weekly basis. He can be viewed as a high-end QB2 in this matchup against the Browns. |
| Derek Lofland FantasyPros | It's troubling that Rodgers and the Packers just fell apart after a second interception in a 38-10 loss at Tampa Bay. The Texans are only 15th against fantasy quarterbacks, I would expect Rodgers to bounce back with a big game. | |
