  Chargers | Justin Herbert optimistic about Week 14    Mon Dec 1, 03:23 PM

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert (hand) is scheduled to undergo a procedure on his fractured hand Monday, Dec. 1, but believes he will have a chance to play in the Week 14 game, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Footballguys view: As Footballguy injury analyst Adam Hutchison noted, there is a reasonable chance Herbert has it right, and that he'll be able to play against the Eagles. Because the injury is to his non-throwing hand, it won't directly impact his passing mechanics, though it could affect ball security. Hutchison, however, currently projects Herbert to miss one week, as post-surgical swelling or inflammation may limit him. Still, with a Monday night kickoff and with Herbert certain to be pushing hard to play, this is one we'll be watching closely.

  Bills | Josh Allen accounts for two touchdowns    Mon Dec 1, 12:59 AM

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 15-of-23 passes for 123 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he rushed eight times for 38 yards and a touchdown.

Footballguys view: Allen now has 76 career rushing touchdowns, surpassing QB Cam Newton for the most all-time rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in the regular season. Fantasy investors will be expecting another big week with the Bengals on tap for Week 15.

  Broncos | Bo Nix tops 300 yards in DC    Mon Dec 1, 12:06 AM

Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix completed 29 of 45 pass attempts for 321 yards, one touchdown, and one interception versus the Washington Commanders in Week 13. He also ran twice for 16 yards.

  Buccaneers | Baker Mayfield tosses TD in win    Sun Nov 30, 08:43 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield completed 18 of his 28 passes for 194 yards and a touchdown and rushed six times for 27 yards in a 20-17 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13.

Footballguys view: Any concerns about Mayfield's sprained AC joint in his non-throwing shoulder were minimized. It wasn't a huge passing day, but Mayfield made plays with his legs, didn't turn the ball over, and was particularly effective throwing on the move. It was an encouraging performance given the circumstances. We'll be expecting a healthier Mayfield to turn it up a notch against the Saints in Week 14.

  Jets | Tyrod Taylor accounts for two touchdowns    Sun Nov 30, 08:01 PM

New York Jets QB Tyrod Taylor completed 19-of-33 passes for 172 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons, while running eight times for 44 yards and a score.

Footballguys view: Taylor led four second-half scoring drives, including two in the final nine minutes of the game, to erase a deficit and finish off the Jets' third win of the season. Now 1-2 as the starter, Taylor delivered two highlights: A 10-yard scoring run and a 52-yard touchdown pass to Adonai Mitchell, who played his best game as a Jet. Taylor was far from perfect, making it difficult to sustain drives, but he maintained his poise during a frantic comeback win. The Jets play the Dolphins in Week 14.

  Chargers | Justin Herbert scheduled for surgery    Sun Nov 30, 07:54 PM

Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert (hand) has a break in his left hand, and he will have surgery Monday, Dec. 1, head coach Jim Harbaugh said. The coach wasn't sure if Herbert will be forced to miss any time. Herbert finished with 15-of-20 for 151 yards, two touchdowns and one interception with eight rushing yards in Week 13 against the Las Vegas Raiders. He left briefly due to the injury to his non-throwing hand, but returned wearing a protective glove, and he finished the game.

Footballguys view: While Herbert could play next week against the Eagles, we won't want to plug him into our lineups. Hopefully he won't be affected much by the injury when the Chargers play Dallas in Week 16, which is the next time you'll want to consider using Herbert in your lineup.

  Browns | Shedeur Sanders will start in Week 14    Sun Nov 30, 07:43 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders is confirmed to be the starting quarterback in Week 14 against the Tennessee Titans, head coach Kevin Stefanski said Sunday, Nov. 30.

  Falcons | Kirk Cousins throws for 234 yards, TD    Sun Nov 30, 06:57 PM

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins completed 21-of-33 passes for 234 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 13 against the New York Jets, and he did not have a rushing attempt.

Footballguys view: The Falcons chose to punt instead of trusting the offense on two fourth and shorts near midfield in a picture of what they think of Cousins. He's only a desperation QB2/Superflex option against the Seahawks next week while we wait for news of when he'll get Drake London back.

  Titans | Cam Ward finishes with 141 yards    Sun Nov 30, 06:28 PM

Tennessee Titans QB Cam Ward went 24-for-38 for 141 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13. He also rushed for seven yards on one carry during the game.

Footballguys view: One week after showing signs of life in fantasy leagues, Ward went back to sleep. He is only a desperation play in 2QB/Superflex leagues against the Browns next week, but you might want to play the Browns D/ST if you can add them.

  Dolphins | Tua Tagovailoa doesn't do much    Sun Nov 30, 06:18 PM

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 12-of-23 passes for 157 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints. He also added four carries for four yards.

Footballguys view: Tagovailoa was inconsistent and it didn't seem like Mike McDaniel trusted him to make plays in this game, instead, leaning on De'Von Achane and the running game. Tagovailoa is only a desperation play in 2QB/Superflex leagues going into a matchup with the Jets.

  Steelers | Aaron Rodgers to blue medical tent    Sun Nov 30, 06:11 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (face) left the Week 13 game against the Buffalo Steelers in third quarter after a strip-sack and fumble which was returned for a touchdown. Rodgers was sacked, and the bridge of his nose was bloodied, and he was in obvious pain. QB Mason Rudolph checked in on the next drive.

Footballguys view: Rodgers came back in to finish the game, but the Steelers offense got no lift from his return. This team is limping into the last five games of the season with one of the worst offenses in the league. We'll see if Rodgers or Mason Rudolph will start at Baltimore next week in a game that will determine the divisional leader.

  Jaguars | Trevor Lawrence throws two touchdowns    Sun Nov 30, 05:40 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence went 16-for-27 for 229 yards and two touchdowns against the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. He also rushed for 25 yards on three carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Lawrence didn't make any big mistakes and even ran in a two point conversion. His fantasy value is trending up heading into a matchup with the Colts in Week 14. Consider him an upside QB2/Superflex play who has some streaming QB1 potential against the Jets in Week 15 and Colts in Week 17

  Texans | C.J. Stroud returns in big win    Sun Nov 30, 05:20 PM

Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud completed 22 of 35 for 276 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in a Week 13 win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Footballguys view: Stroud was better than his fantasy bottom line as the Texans scored both touchdowns on the ground. He was efficient and Nico Collins involved as a downfield receiver in addition to peppering Dalton Schultz with short targets and completing all five targets to second round pick Jayden Higgins, who is on the rise. Stroud will be a viable streamer and good QB2/Superflex option against the Chiefs next week as long as the weather cooperates in Kansas City.

  Saints | Two TD passes for Tyler Shough    Sun Nov 30, 05:19 PM

New Orleans Saints QB Tyler Shough completed 26-of-38 passes for 239 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins, while rushing six times for 18 yards and a lost fumble.

Footballguys view: Shough was picked to end his one good first half drive, but kept fighting in the second half and had two chances to extend the game late in the fourth quarter after the Saints looked to be out of it at halftime. He is creating fantasy value in the Saints passing game and should be a viable QB2/Superflex play against the Bucs next week.

  Browns | Shedeur Sanders throws for 149 yards    Sun Nov 30, 04:51 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders went 16-for-25 for 149 yards and one touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He also rushed for six yards on one carry during the game.

Footballguys view: Sanders actually matched Brock Purdy in quality of play on a windy afternoon, and still deserves to get the rest of the season to prove that he should be a primary player in the Browns quarterback competition next season. He'll be a QB2/Superflex option against the Titans next week as long as the minor injury that briefly sidelined him isn't a problem during the week of practice.

  Panthers | Three more touchdowns for Bryce Young    Sun Nov 30, 04:37 PM

Carolina Panthers QB Bryce Young completed 15-of-20 passes for 206 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams, while running five times for 23 yards.

Footballguys view: Young was hyperefficient, and threw two of his three touchdowns on fourth down and short deep ball play calls. Young also found Jalen Coker on a 3rd and five to clinch the big win. He has been as up and down as any quarterback in fantasy football, but Young will go into the bye with confidence and two good targets with Coker coming on and Tetairoa McMillan playing like a #1. He's a viable QB2/Superflex against New Orleans and Tampa Bay after his Week 14 bye.

  Colts | Efficient Performance For Daniel Jones    Sun Nov 30, 04:29 PM

Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones completed 14 of 27 for 201 yards and two touchdowns without an interception in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.

Footballguys view: Jones made multiple clutch downfield throws to Alec Pierce and wasn't the reason the Colts lost this crucial divisional game. He did as well as you could have asked an injured quarterback to play against one of the best pass defenses in the league. Fantasy expectations for Jones are still lowered for next week's game against the Jags, so you'll probably want to turn to another option.

  Rams | Matthew Stafford uncharacteristically mistake-prone    Sun Nov 30, 03:47 PM

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 18-of-28 passes for 243 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers. The interceptions, both in the first quarter, were his first since Week 3. One of the interceptions was returned for a touchdown, too, and Stafford also lost a fumble.

Footballguys view: Stafford came into the game with two interceptions this season. He threw two in the first half. Stafford was also sacked by Derrick Brown and fumbled with the game on the line late in the fourth quarter. He's still a high floor QB1 against the Cardinals next week, but this results makes you less likely to play him in the rematch with Seattle on the road in Week 16.

  49ers | Brock Purdy throws for 168 yards    Sun Nov 30, 03:43 PM

San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy went 16-for-29 for 168 yards and one touchdown against the Cleveland Browns in Week 13. He also rushed for four yards and one touchdown on two carries during the game.

Footballguys view: Purdy wasn't expected to do much on a windy day against the Browns defense. He was safe with the ball, which was the most important task after he threw three interceptions last week vs. Carolina. Purdy will go into a his bye a matchup QB1 with the Titans, Colts, and Bears up in the fantasy playoffs.

  Browns | Shedeur Sanders may continue starting    Sat Nov 29, 02:05 PM

Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders may continue to be the starting quarterback for the rest of the season if he plays well in upcoming games, according to sources.

Footballguys view: Not exactly breaking news here. If Sanders is a better option than Dillon Gabriel (which should not be difficult), then the Browns stick with the fifth-round pick. The Browns may have something here with Sanders, and teammates sure seem to respond to him the right way. Against the 49ers on Sunday, Sanders is a low-end QB2 so most Fantasy GMs will be in 'wait-and-see' mode with the young passer.
