Dak Prescott News
Friday, October 2, 10:01 PM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will face the best defense in the NFL from a year ago in Week 4. The Cowboys will go on the road to take on the Houston Texans, who have one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL, one of its best cover cornerbacks, and a renowned defensive-minded head coach. Prescott hasn't faced the Texans since 2022, when they were nothing like they team they are today, so we don't have much precedent to go off of. But he's been productive so far this year, with seven passing touchdowns to just one interception. He hasn't fumbled yet either. Taking care of the football will be crucial, as the Texans were third in the NFL in 2025 with 29 turnovers forced. Prescott is a must-start in 2QB and superflex leagues, but there's reason for some trepidation in 1QB leagues, where he's a low-end QB1 due to the difficulty of the matchup.

Malik Willis News
Saturday, October 3, 2:51 AM
Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis is in a tough road matchup this week against the Minnesota Vikings, and he'll be without star RB De'Von Achane (knee) and starting receiver Caleb Douglas (ankle). Willis has only thrown one touchdown in his three games this season, while averaging 209 passing yards per game and completing 57% of his passes. He has added some value on the ground, running for 101 yards and another touchdown in three games, but the Dolphins' offense ranks last in the NFL in points per game and sixth-worst in yards per game. Without Achane, Willis may have to run more and could carry enough value to be a fringe starter in two-QB leagues in some matchups this season. Week 4's matchup against the Vikings is a very tough one, though, so he ranks 29th in RotoBaller's QB rankings for Week 4. He should be left on the bench if possible this week and only started in desperation, even in leagues that require multiple QBs.
