Deshaun Watson News
Wednesday, September 30, 12:19 PM
Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has had his best two performances of the season in Weeks 2 and 3 in the Browns' wins over the Buccaneers and the Panthers and will hope to carry that into Week 4's game at home against the Steelers. Against Carolina, Watson wasn't very efficient, completing just 16-of-30 passes for 144 yards, but did throw two touchdowns without an interception and added a two-point conversion. At Tampa Bay, Watson had his most efficient game yet this season, completing 24-of-30 passes for 238 yards and two passing touchdowns. Watson found tight end Harold Fannin Jr. twice for touchdowns in the win over Carolina and in the first two contests of the season, he connected with rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston in each of the games. The emergence of the tight end Fannin Jr. will help him add to his receiving corps and broaden his target base. The Pittsburgh Steelers defense is a tough matchup for Watson and the Browns as they are allowing just 192.7 net passing yards per game and have recorded two interceptions on the season. Watson should remain on the outside of start-worthy quarterbacks in fantasy in this matchup.

Joe Burrow News
Friday, October 2, 12:06 PM
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in Week 4. Burrow completed 28 of his 37 pass attempts (76%) for 286 yards and three touchdowns in the 27-30 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite putting up his best fantasy performance of the season, Burrow and the Bengals walked away with their first loss of the year last week. Cincinnati may have a difficult time getting back in the win column this week at home against the Jaguars. The Jacksonville defense has held opposing offenses to 10 points or fewer in two of their three games this season while racking up eight sacks and four interceptions. The Jaguars offense has also been potent to start the year, scoring about 27 points per game through three games. Burrow and the high-powered Bengals offense will have their hands full in this matchup, but should still be able to put up points in what could turn into a high-scoring game. This game is tied for the week's highest over/under, set at 51.5 points as of Friday. Even with a difficult matchup, Burrow is ranked QB5 in our RotoBaller Week 4 rankings. Fantasy managers should be excited for the potential of this game turning into a back-and-forth affair.
