Matthew Stafford Intercepted Twice In Loss

Monday, September 18, 2:39 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford made some costly mistakes in the team's 30-23 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Facing a tough defense, Stafford went 34-of-55 for 307 pass yards, one touchdown, and four carries that accounted for 17 yards. While the team fought against one of the league's top defenses and teams, Stafford threw two costly second-half interceptions. The 35-year-old has thrown for over 300 yards in back-to-back games, and it is evident that the Rams will throw the ball a ton this year. Until Cooper Kupp is back, Stafford is a low-end QB1 against the Bengals in Week 3.

Trevor Lawrence Looks to Bounce Back Against Lowly Texans

Wednesday, September 20, 9:39 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence draws an easier matchup this week, taking on the Houston Texans at home. The third-year struggled mightily last Sunday against Kansas City in a performance that he described as "kind of embarrassing." Lawrence put up 216 yards and zero scores, leading to a 9.24 fantasy point output for the day. The Texans are up next, and while they are usually a great matchup for any fantasy asset, DeMeco Ryans' defense has held Lamar Jackson and the Colts QB duo to an average of 198 passing yards through two weeks. Still, with the number of weapons that Lawrence has at his disposal and a 26.5 team-implied total, expect a solid bounce back for the former Clemson star. He's a back-end QB1 for Week 3.
