Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco made his team debut in Week 6, completing 31 of 45 passes for 290 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Expectations were understandably modest for the veteran, as he had limited time to prepare and faced one of the league's toughest defenses in the Green Bay Packers. While he's still without a full week of practice under his belt, Flacco should have a stronger command of the Bengals' playbook and offensive system heading into Week 7. He draws a divisional matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. While the matchup is appealing on paper, the uncertainty surrounding Flacco's chemistry with his new teammates and the overall understanding of Cincinnati's offense make him a risky fantasy option. Fantasy managers should avoid starting Flacco in all formats this week until he proves capable of fully replacing Joe Burrow.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed 25 of his 34 pass attempts for 261 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 6 loss against the Carolina Panthers. The veteran quarterback had another productive game as he played turnover-free football and didn't even take a sack. He now has a whopping 11 touchdowns and zero turnovers over his last three games. Not only is he the QB1 during that span, but he is also the top-scoring fantasy quarterback through the first six weeks of the 2025 season. Fantasy managers should continue to trust Prescott in fantasy football, as he has shown that he and the Cowboys' offense will rack up yardage regardless of their matchup. Dallas seems to find itself in a shootout every week, which bodes well for Prescott's fantasy outlook -- and he should only improve when CeeDee Lamb (ankle) returns. Prescott is a high-end QB1 heading into Week 7 against Washington.
