Aaron Rodgers on Fantasy Radar in AFC North Showdown

Friday, November 13, 2:36 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will return from a Week 9 bye to take on the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. When Rodgers last faced Cincinnati in Week 3, he finished as a top-10 fantasy QB with 292 passing yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Although he'll be on the road this time, the Bengals remain a relatively favorable matchup, surrendering 229 passing yards and over 28 points per game to opposing offenses at home. Unlike most AFC North battles, this contest is expected to be high-scoring, with a projected point total of around 49.5. The Steelers have won their last few games behind a strong running game, but Rodgers will likely need to throw more in this one to keep pace with Cincinnati's high-powered offense. While the 42-year-old isn't necessarily a must-start, he profiles as a high-end QB2 with plenty of streaming appeal on Sunday night.

Deshaun Watson Back As Starter, Faces Good Matchup In Week 10

Saturday, November 14, 4:25 AM

Cleveland Browns starting quarterback Deshaun Watson returns to the lineup after missing just one game. He is set to face the Houston Texans at home in Week 10 and goes up against a bottom third pass defense with the chance to return to a nice outing. The Texans rank No. 27 in the NFL in pass defense, giving up 235.6 passing yards per game and allowing 12 passing touchdowns. Watson has 1,806 passing yards so far this season with seven passing touchdowns and three interceptions. He also has added 217 rushing yards with a rushing touchdown. In Watson's last starting outing, he played at the Pittsburgh Steelers when he completed 27-of-39 passes for 324 passing yards and no touchdowns or interceptions. Watson is back in the lineup after Shedeur Sanders got the start in Week 9's overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints. Watson looks like a strong play with some of his receivers, including KC Concepcion Jr., starting to emerge. Back healthy, Watson could be a good fill in quarterback for QB1s who are on bye or injured. He still comes with some risk as a fantasy starter but his matchup looks to be pretty good this week and it might be a good week to plug him into a starting role.
