Sam Darnold Should Continue Delivering High Yardage and Touchdown Totals

Monday, September 28, 6:17 AM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold returned from injury and played his first complete game of the season on Sunday. While Seattle lost, the outcome was even better than fantasy managers could have imagined. Darnold was quite busy through the air, completing 31 passes for 379 yards, four touchdowns, and two interceptions. The pair of turnovers may very well have been the difference between the Seahawks losing and winning, but from a fantasy perspective, they're a negligible blemish amid an otherwise dominant outing. Two of his four touchdown passes went to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, as the quarterback and receiver continue to show off one of the strongest rapports in the league. Darnold isn't a lock for four touchdowns every week, but he continues to have QB1 upside heading into Week 4 against the Chargers. As a result, he is a top quarterback target on the waiver wire in fantasy football.

Bo Nix News

Bo Nix Coming Off Rebound Effort, Faces Rams in Week 3

Friday, September 25, 10:04 PM

After a dismal performance to open the season, Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix responded with a solid effort during a 20-13 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Nix finished the victory 22 of 31 passing for 288 yards and a touchdown while also throwing an interception and rushing the ball five times for only six yards. Nix is RotoBaller's 19th-ranked quarterback and is projected to score 18 fantasy points against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3. Before stifling New York Giants backup quarterback Jameis Winston last week, Los Angeles allowed San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy to throw for 205 yards passing and three touchdowns against one interception while completing 73.5% of his passes in Week 1.
