Jacoby Brissett A Superflex Candidate In Pass-Happy Offense

Saturday, October 3, 1:21 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed 38 of his 52 pass attempts in Week 3, finishing with 280 passing yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. Brissett added a rushing touchdown on a goal-line sneak in the 36-30 loss to the 49ers. Brissett is averaging 39 passes per game and 27.3 completions, good for second-most in the league, and has a 70.1% completion rate through three weeks. Brissett has found success by getting rid of the ball quickly and hitting receivers on short routes, which has given him the third-lowest aDOT and time to throw among starting quarterbacks. In Week 4, Arizona faces the New York Giants, who have been susceptible to such passes, offering opponents the third-highest completion rate and fourth-highest EPA per dropback on short routes. Arizona's high passing volume makes Brissett a dark horse streamer and a qualified starter in two-QB setups for Week 4.

Trevor Lawrence Carries QB1 Upside Into Week 4

Saturday, October 3, 10:47 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has not piled up huge passing-yardage totals lately, but the touchdowns have kept coming. Lawrence threw for 182 yards against New England last week, his second straight game below 200, yet he still found the end zone three times and added 25 yards on the ground. He has seven touchdown passes against two interceptions through three games, with Jacksonville scoring 27 points per game along the way. Cincinnati does present a challenge up front. The Bengals have generated pressure on 39.7% of opposing dropbacks, the fifth-highest rate in the league, so Lawrence may not have a clean pocket all afternoon. RotoBaller is still very high on him for Sunday, ranking Lawrence as QB4 for Week 4. The passing yardage has been uneven, but his touchdown production and Jacksonville's strong start offensively keep him firmly in QB1 territory against Cincinnati.
