Dak Prescott Still A Fantasy Football QB1 in Week 6 at Packers

Saturday, October 17, 12:29 AM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will face the Green Bay Packers on the road in Week 6 after a disappointing performance in Week 5. He failed to lift the Cowboys to a win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sans their starting quarterback, Baker Mayfield (thumb). This week, he'll face one of the tougher defenses against quarterbacks in the NFL -- Green Bay has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing QBs this season. It looks like wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will return for Week 6 without restrictions, but he may still be slowed down by the thigh injury that affected him in Week 5. Prescott wasn't very effective with Lamb out of the lineup, and threw just one touchdown against two interceptions in the loss. Prescott is still productive enough to be a QB1, and depending on how healthy Lamb is, could bounce back, but don't expect a monster ceiling against the defense that's lockdown against the pass, allowing the sixth-fewest yards per pass attempt this year.

C.J. Stroud News

C.J. Stroud Lights Up Jaguars in London

Sunday, October 18, 9:15 AM

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had a strong day in London, leading the team to a 34-31 Week 6 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Stroud completed 24 out of 34 passes (70.6%) for 312 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Stroud added one rushing attempt for five yards. While Stroud threw an interception in the end zone to Jaguars cornerback Travis Hunter with under four minutes to play, it did not end up costing the Texans the game, and Stroud carved up the Jacksonville defense throughout the day. He connected on a touchdown pass with wide receiver Jaylin Noel and found tight end Foster Moreau for two scores. Stroud is playing well and has an ideal matchup against the New York Giants in Week 7. He should be started in all formats.
