Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff did not have his best statistical day against a top-notch defense in his team's Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns. Goff completed 16 of 27 pass attempts for 168 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. On the season, the 30-year-old has now completed 73.8% of his pass attempts for 929 yards, nine touchdowns, and two interceptions. Goff has shown the potential for gaudy touchdown totals over the past couple of years in this Lions offense, but his lack of rushing ability (11 rushing yards this season) limits his fantasy ceiling. He profiles as a matchup-dependent low-end starter in single-quarterback leagues, and has a favorable matchup on paper in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert struggled in the team's 21-18 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday. He completed 23 of 41 passes for 203 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions, along with a 24-yard run. The offense appeared out of sync, plagued by drops and constant pressure from New York's front four, which often forced Herbert out of the pocket. Losing left tackle Joe Alt (ankle) early made things even more difficult. In Week 5, they face the Washington Commanders, a team that ranks near the bottom of the league in passing yards allowed. If the line holds up, Herbert should bounce back against a weaker secondary. He remains a top-tier QB, though fantasy managers might expect some volatility until Alt returns.
