Quarterbacks

Josh Allen was the overall QB1 last season and he remains the favorite to end that way again in 2022. Allen ranks second in Expected Points Added per Play (EPA/Play) and fourth in Completion Percentage Over Expected (CPOE) and the Bills rank first in Pass Rate Over Expected (PROE) and third in Early Down Pass Frequency Rate (EDPF). Allen is elite and Buffalo knows it, running their entire offense through him. The Bills at Dolphins contest is tied for the highest Over/Under (52.5) of the week and Buffalo is tied for the highest Implied Team Total (52.5) of the week.

Patrick Mahomes II is right there with Josh Allen competing for the overall QB1 in fantasy. Mahomes ranks first in EPA/Play and second in CPOE and the Chiefs rank second in PROE and first in EDPF. Kansas City has the third-highest Implied Team Total (28) of the week and the matchup against the Colts doesn't scare anyone.
