Cooper Rush News
Saturday, September 19, 8:43 AM
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Cooper Rush didn't do much with his opportunity as starting QB in Week 1's loss to Pittsburgh, completing 12 of 22 passes for 143 yards and one touchdown while tossing two interceptions. The veteran QB will get another shot in Week 2 against a much softer defense as the Falcons take on the Panthers at home. Last week, Caleb Williams threw for 269 yards and two scores while adding 10 rushes for 65 yards and an additional two touchdowns. Rush is not the same caliber of quarterback as Williams, though, and with the Bears running at will against Carolina (two running backs had over 100 yards), the Falcons could very well try to do the same thing with Bijan Robinson and Brian Robinson Jr. With a likely heavy dose of the ground attack and a low likelihood of being very effective through the air, the nine-year pro ranks as QB31 this week at RotoBaller, making him avoidable outside of Superflex leagues and sets him up as a DFS dart throw in tournaments.

Quinshon Judkins News
Friday, September 18, 3:50 PM
Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins had a rough time establishing a run game in Week 1 against the Jacksonville Jaguars and he could see more of the same in Week 2 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He carried 12 times for 33 yards in the opening week, good for 2.8 yards per carry. He did add two receptions for 17 receiving yards. The Bucs limited Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown to 56 rushing yards in Week 1 and allowed 106 team rushing yards to the Bengals. With Deshuan Watson at quarterback, Judkins could find it hard to get established again in Week 2 with the Bucs likely dominating the flow of the game and possession of the ball. While Judkins rushing ability could be stymied, he is a capable pass catcher and could be a threat in the underneath passing game of the Browns. However, a strong Bucs defense playing at home should not yield much overall to Judkins. Judkins is a talented back but until the Browns get the quarterback situation resolved, he will continue to find it tough to see big openings in the run game.
