Josh Allen's Rushing Ability Keeps Him Atop Week 6 Rankings

Saturday, October 17, 7:35 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen turned a relatively quiet passing night into another massive fantasy performance with his legs in Week 5. He threw for 210 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against the Los Angeles Rams, but his 121 rushing yards and another score made the difference in Buffalo's 37-34 overtime victory. Allen now has eight rushing touchdowns through five games, an extraordinary pace that continues to separate him from the rest of the position. The Las Vegas Raiders have struggled defensively during their two-game losing streak, most recently surrendering 45 points to New England. Buffalo should have opportunities to move the ball both through the air and on the ground, and Allen's involvement near the goal line remains a major part of his fantasy appeal. He enters Week 6 as RotoBaller's top-ranked quarterback and an unquestioned QB1.

Lamar Jackson News

Lamar Jackson Ruled Out for Sunday

Friday, October 16, 9:48 AM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) will miss his second straight game after head coach Jesse Minter announced on Friday that he has been ruled out for Sunday's divisional matchup with the Browns. Veteran Tyler Huntley will start again after leading the team to an overtime victory over the Falcons in Week 5 and keeping the offense largely on track, as he's been known to do in his time as Jackson's backup. While the fantasy ceilings of running back Derrick Henry and Zay Flowers are ultimately lowered without Jackson under center, Baltimore's Plan B is better than most, and both can still be started with only slightly tempered expectations.
