Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed 28 of 34 pass attempts for 341 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 5 loss against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was not sacked in the contest. Darnold essentially played mistake-free football for the first 59 minutes, keeping the underdog Seahawks in the game until the very end. Along the way, he turned in one of the week's best fantasy performances, which was a refreshing development since he hadn't exceeded 21 fantasy points in a single game through the first four weeks. Unfortunately for Darnold and the Seahawks, the veteran quarterback threw an interception with 58 seconds left, setting up a game-winning field goal for Tampa Bay. Seattle lost, but Darnold proved that he can perform against an above-average defense. He'll rank as a mid-range QB2 for Week 6 against Jacksonville.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler put up a season-low 126 passing yards against the Bills in Week 4. It was his first game under 200 yards this season, though he added value on the ground with six rushes for 49 yards. Rattler's 146 pass attempts rank fifth in the league, but he's averaging just 191.3 yards per game, 26th among quarterbacks. He has done well avoiding turnovers with only one interception, but remains winless as a starter at 0-10. Now he faces a Giants defense that just held Justin Herbert to 203 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Rattler remains a low-end QB2 or Superflex option in Week 5, though with Taysom Hill and Foster Moreau practicing in a limited fashion, he may have additional weapons available soon.
