Dak Prescott's High-Volume Offense Sets Him Up Well Going Forward

Friday, November 6, 6:34 AM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is putting together another QB1 season for fantasy managers, throwing 14 touchdowns to five interceptions, 2,046 yards, and rushing for 101 yards and a touchdown. He is currently QB6 this season and has star weapons like George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb to throw to. Under the hood, Prescott is potentially in for a positive regression, ranked 12th in fantasy points per game but 7th in expected fantasy points per game. Prescott is mostly getting there on volume, ranking fifth in dropbacks per game, and with the Cowboys' defense struggling, allowing the fourth-most points on the season amongst all defenses, the Cowboys offense will always need to put its best foot forward, which should only bode well for Prescott and Cowboys fantasy players to continue to put up production moving forward. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups in all formats.

Josh Allen Turns in Another Terrific Performance After the Bye Week

Sunday, November 1, 5:56 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 21 of his 34 pass attempts for 289 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 8 win over the Baltimore Ravens. He also boosted his fantasy output with seven rushing attempts, 30 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown. The 30-year-old has consistently been a high-end QB1 throughout his career, but he has a particularly strong track record in the week immediately after the Bills' bye (including Sunday's Week 8 contest). Allen now has 2+ total touchdowns in the game immediately following the Bills' bye week in each of his nine seasons since being drafted. That's an impressive pattern, but not necessarily a surprise for a superstar quarterback who has repeatedly demonstrated his versatility on offense. He should continue to be started in all leagues during Week 9, despite facing off against a strong Vikings defense.
