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.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. got back on track in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders, completing 20 of his 26 passes for 313 yards and two scores. He did throw one interception as well and was sacked once. The former first-rounder's 90.5 QBR for the game was a solid increase from the 71.3 rating he had going into the contest, and there was a marked improvement in the second-year quarterback's average yards per pass attempt, going from 6.1 in Weeks 1-3 to 12.0 in Week 4 (the highest of any QB). While it was a great bounce-back performance after two down weeks, the 25-year-old draws Buffalo in Week 5 after the team comes out of their bye, and the Bills have limited opposing passers to 125.8 yards per game thus far, which is the fewest yards passing per game in the entire NFL, so fantasy managers may want to look elsewhere for streaming options the next time Penix takes the field.
