Josh Allen Snaps Overtime Losing Streak with Elite Rushing Performance

Monday, October 12, 8:05 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 12 of his 19 pass attempts for 210 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and one interception during Monday's overtime win against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5. He also logged 10 rushing attempts, 121 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown. While it was a modest day for Allen passing, he turned heads with an elite performance on the ground as he led the team in rushing yards. The future Hall of Famer also pulled off an impressive overtime win; it was the first of his career, and he now owns a 1-7 record in overtime between the regular season and playoffs. In this potential Super Bowl preview, Allen reminded fantasy managers that he's a strong weekly TE1 option in fantasy football. He'll look to keep the momentum going as the Bills stay out west to face the Las Vegas Raiders, who just surrendered five total touchdowns to Drake Maye.

Vikings' Scheme Shift Could Benefit Kyler Murray

Friday, October 9, 1:22 PM

After the Minnesota Vikings finally created some offensive momentum, quarterback Kyler Murray is a fringe QB1 when Minnesota takes on the New Orleans Saints in Week 5. The Vikings adapted last week, running more than 50 shotgun snaps -- their most since they hired Kevin O'Connell as head coach in 2022 -- and the changes clicked, as Murray completed 13 of his final 14 passes and established a rapport with tight end T.J. Hockenson. Additionally, top receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) said that he aims to return against the Saints. The bigger issue this week could be protection. Left guard Donovan Jackson (knee) is out for the season, left tackle Christian Darrisaw (concussion) was ruled out, and right tackle Brian O'Neill (knee) is questionable. The Saints, however, have been struggling, allowing points on half of opponents' possessions and ranking 30th against the run, which gives Murray an opening for his first big rushing game of the year. As RotoBaller's QB12 this week, Murray is a starting option in most formats.
