Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen continues to justify his elite fantasy status, entering Week 5 as the top-scoring player at his position. Allen has been electric through the air and on the ground, and he'll look to keep rolling in Sunday's matchup against the division rival New England Patriots. While New England's defense could provide a stiffer test than some of Allen's previous opponents, his dual-threat ability and chemistry with tight end Dalton Kincaid make him nearly matchup-proof. The duo's growing red zone connection has been a major boost for fantasy managers, and Allen remains an automatic QB1 start in all formats. Expect another strong outing from one of the game's premier fantasy weapons.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is expected to have a strong rebound in Week 5 at home against the Washington Commanders. Herbert's recent performance was impacted by multiple drops from his receivers, limited playing time, and a collapsing pocket against the New York Giants. This resulted in only 203 passing yards, one touchdown, two interceptions, and the Chargers' first loss of the season. However, the Commanders present a good chance for recovery, as they rank 27th in the NFL in passing yards allowed (248.5 per game). While star tackle Joe Alt (ankle) is out with a high ankle sprain, the possible return of veteran guard Mekhi Becton (concussion) should help stabilize the interior. Expect the Chargers to be much more cohesive at SoFi Stadium. RotoBaller projects Herbert as QB3 for this week. Fantasy managers should anticipate a bounce-back game and consider him a top-tier QB1.
