Matthew Stafford Carries Spectacular Scoring Momentum Into Week 12

Saturday, November 22, 12:11 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford continues to lead the NFL in passing touchdowns ahead of Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His elite passing productivity has made up for his lack of rushing upside, allowing him to rank as the sixth-highest-scoring quarterback in fantasy football this season. He has a whopping 22 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last seven games, and now, he takes on a Bucs defense allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. Stafford is playing the best football of his career and has kept himself in the running for the MVP award. He continues to look like a potential league-winner in fantasy football and remains firmly in the mix as a mid-to-high QB1 option in fantasy football as he takes on the Bucs. To be precise, Stafford ranks as the overall QB5 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and should be started in all leagues.

Jordan Love a Low-End Streaming QB for Week 12

Friday, November 21, 6:59 PM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder) put up three consecutive full practices and is off the injury report for Week 12 when the Packers host the Minnesota Vikings. Love was QB8 in Week 11, throwing two touchdown passes and just 174 yards on just 24 pass attempts in their win over the New York Giants. He also left the game for a brief period due to his shoulder injury, but returned to the game a short time later. The Minnesota Vikings allow the 11th-fewest fantasy points to the quarterback position, but also the 12th-fewest points to opposing running backs. The Packers could opt to attack the Vikings' defensive blitzes with more passing, given that Josh Jacobs (knee) is questionable to play. Love is a very polarizing quarterback for fantasy, but he's at the low end of the streaming quarterbacks for fantasy in Week 12 if you need to plug in an option at the last minute.
