Deshaun Watson's 308 Yards Don't Fix the Touchdown Drought

Tuesday, October 27, 11:41 AM

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for 308 yards in Sunday's 27-24 victory over the Tennessee Titans, topping 300 for the first time since joining the team, yet he failed to throw a touchdown for the second consecutive game. He completed 25 of 36 passes with one interception and added 19 rushing yards on three carries, including a nine-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Over his past three starts the veteran has thrown just one touchdown pass, which puts his season total at seven through seven games. The legs keep rescuing him, with 215 rushing yards on 48 attempts ranking third among NFL quarterbacks. Week 8 brings a rematch with the Pittsburgh Steelers, against whom he threw for 268 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 4. Superflex and two-quarterback leagues make him a worthwhile addition, while the inconsistent passing production limits his appeal in standard one-quarterback formats.

Joe Burrow Leads Stellar Second Half Comeback

Sunday, October 25, 4:38 PM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was sluggish to begin the game as this offense was held to zero points in the first half of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Burrow locked in at halftime and put together an excellent second half. Overall, Burrow completed 22-of-30 passing attempts for 292 passing yards with four touchdowns and zero interceptions in the comeback win. The 29-year-old put together five straight scoring drives to help get his team a big Week 7 victory. Over his last two games, Burrow has thrown for eight touchdowns without any interceptions. He'll look to keep up this excellent play against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8.
