With the Patriots down to their third-string running back, expect the passing game to carry the offense as Drake Maye faces a Lions team that has allowed 2 or more passing touchdowns in 7 of 8 games.

Tier 2 | Strong QB1

Team Player Opponent Confidence Meter Fantasy Points P/G FP Last 4 QB Rate vs Man QB Rate vs Zone QB Rate vs Blitz QB Rate vs Press CPOE Deep Throw % FP/OPP EPA/DB P2S%
CIN Joe Burrow PIT 94% 30.6 33.63 129.4 103 105.3 119 7.1 8.4 0.63 0.265 14.7

This is going to be a tough test for Joe Burrow, as the elite Steelers defense has allowed just 1 quarterback to throw for more than 1 passing touchdown this season.

Look for Jayden Daniels to have some good rushing upside in a potential rain game. Daniels has also rushed for 30 or more yards in all 4 of his games against the Giants.

Tier 3 | Matchup-Driven QB1/High-End QB2 Options

Team Player Opponent Confidence Meter Fantasy Points P/G FP Last 4 QB Rate vs Man QB Rate vs Zone QB Rate vs Blitz QB Rate vs Press CPOE Deep Throw % FP/OPP EPA/DB P2S%

GB Jordan Love MIN 87% 24.3 24.48 113.4 90.5 95.6 74.5 2 16.7 0.52 0.183 14.3

The Falcons’ secondary has struggled, and without Jessie Bates, things could get even worse, as they have allowed 270 or more passing yards in 3 of their last 4 games. Good news for Patrick Mahomes.

The red-hot C.J. Stroud is going to have a tough test against the Browns, who have not allowed an opposing quarterback to throw for more than 1 passing touchdown in 5 straight games.

Jordan Love doesn’t have the best odds this week against the Vikings, who allow the fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks and primarily play zone coverage. Love has been average against zone coverage, but he is also the only quarterback who has performed well against the Vikings this season.

Tier 4 | Volatile QB2 Starters
Team Player Opponent Confidence Meter Fantasy Points P/G FP Last 4 QB Rate vs Man QB Rate vs Zone QB Rate vs Blitz QB Rate vs Press CPOE Deep Throw % FP/OPP EPA/DB P2S%

SEA Drew Lock LV 79% 18.9 12.6 87.7 110.8 108.3 113.6 2.5 6.6 0.58 0.4 8.3

Matthew Stafford continues to lose his top targets, which could hurt him in Week 10, as the Cardinals have been sneaky good at keeping opposing quarterbacks under 225 passing yards in 4 straight games.

Kirk Cousins’ first game with the Vikings should be interesting, but Cousins isn’t shy about taking shots downfield, which could be bad news against a Packers defense that has recorded an interception in 8 of its 9 games.

Despite Drew Lock dealing with some injuries, he has a solid matchup against a struggling Raiders defense that has allowed 2 or more passing touchdowns in 7 straight games. If Lock can’t go, Jalen Milroe would start, but he’d likely be in Tier 6.

Tyler Shough does have bust potential this week despite his upside, as the Panthers run the 3rd-most zone coverage, which Shough has struggled against. The Panthers also allow the fewest rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks.

Tier 5 | Desperation Superflex

J.J. McCarthy could have a tough time against the Commanders defense, which blitzes at the 5th-highest rate in the league. McCarthy has struggled against the blitz this year.

Geno Smith may struggle against the Bills, who allow the lowest CPOE in the league, meaning they don’t allow easy throws. Smith will have to be on point with his passing if he wants a chance to succeed.

We could see fewer deep shots from the Browns and Deshaun Watson, as the Chargers allow the 3rd-lowest deep throw percentage in the league.

ARI Carson Beck LAR 60% 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0

Daniel Jones has lost most of his weapons and now faces a Dolphins defense that has held opposing quarterbacks under 200 passing yards in 3 of its last 4 games.

Rookie Fernando Mendoza is getting his first career start, but it won’t be easy, as the Seahawks have held opposing quarterbacks under 200 passing yards in 8 of their 9 games.

It’s probably a long shot since rookie Carson Beck doesn’t have many weapons outside of Trey McBride, but the Rams have allowed 250 or more passing yards in 3 straight games.

Christian McCaffrey should find his way into the end zone against the Cowboys, who have allowed a rushing touchdown in 6 of their last 7 games.

Jahmyr Gibbs should find success against the Patriots run defense, which has allowed a rusher to gain over 65 yards in 4 straight games.

Bijan Robinson may not bounce back this week as many would hope. The Falcons run the 4th-most zone rushing schemes, and the Chiefs allow the 3rd-fewest yards per carry to running backs on zone runs.

James Cook should continue to put up yards on the ground against the struggling Jets run defense, which has allowed a rusher to gain over 80 yards in 3 straight games.

Jaylen Warren should have a strong game against the Bengals, who have allowed a rusher to gain over 80 rushing yards in 3 of their last 4 games.

Kyren Williams should be utilized in PPR leagues this week without Puka Nacua, as the Cardinals have allowed a running back to gain 50 receiving yards in 3 of their last 4 games.

Ollie Gordon may have a chance to bounce back after a few poor outings against the Colts, who have allowed a 100-yard rusher in back-to-back games.

Chase Brown could struggle against an elite Steelers run defense that has held opposing running backs under 50 rushing yards in 5 straight games.

Chuba Hubbard remains a strong fantasy play at running back, averaging 16.9 fantasy points over his last 4 games. The Saints have allowed the 3rd-most fantasy points to the position in recent months.

Woody Marks offers a solid floor with his volume, as the Browns have allowed a rusher to gain over 70 yards in 5 of their last 6 games.

Blake Corum has seen an increased workload in recent weeks (shocker), and the Cardinals have allowed at least 1 running back to rush for over 50 yards in every game this season. Corum could be a solid play this week.

At a minimum, Quinshon Judkins should get you 50 rushing yards against the Texans, who have allowed that to every opposing running back this year.

Zach Charbonnet looks like the RB1 for the Seahawks, which is great since the Raiders have allowed a rusher to gain over 60 yards and score a touchdown in 6 straight games.

Audric Estime offers some sleeper appeal, especially if Travis Etienne does not return this week. If Etienne does return, slide him into this tier. The Panthers have allowed a rushing touchdown in 5 straight games.

Corey Kiner is likely to get the start in Week 10, but I think he may be touchdown-or-bust, as the Lions have not allowed a running back to rush for over 60 yards in 4 straight games.

Cam Skattebo on TNF is a solid play, based on the fact that the touchdown rate for TNF running backs remains high, with at least 1 running back scoring in all but 1 game this year.

Jordan Mason could see more opportunities in the red zone with Kirk Cousins at quarterback, which is where Mason has been getting his touches. The Packers have allowed a rushing touchdown in 8 of their 9 games this year.

Omarion Hampton would need to reach 17 carries to produce against the Ravens, as that seems to be what it takes for opposing running backs to have success against them.

The Steelers run plenty of man/gap rushing schemes, and the Bengals allow the most yards per carry against that scheme, which could help Rico Dowdle.

Dylan Sampson has been a better play in PPR leagues, as he has recorded at least 3 receptions for 25 yards in each of his last 3 games.

Emmett Johnson is getting opportunities in this backfield. It’s a small role, but he could be effective if he gets some carries, as the Falcons allow the 3rd-most yards after contact, and Johnson has a high YACO.

Aaron Jones could see more involvement in the passing game under Kirk Cousins, as he is still running routes 41% of the time. Jones’ PPR value could increase with a less mobile quarterback like Cousins.

Keep your eyes on the practice reports for Bhayshul Tuten. If he were to miss Week 10, that would push Chris Rodriguez into Tier 5 with a favorable matchup.

Justice Hill is another PPR option who could see a boost under new quarterback Jacoby Brissett. Hill has recorded at least 3 receptions in each of his last 4 games, and Brissett has a high rate of targeting his running backs.

Ty Johnson offers deep value in deeper leagues, with at least 2 receptions in every game since returning in Week 3.

Austin Ekeler could be worth taking a shot on in deeper leagues, as he plays on TNF, and running backs who play on Thursday tend to have a higher chance of scoring.

You could take a shot on Keaton Mitchell or Kimani Vidal, but as I mentioned with Omarion Hampton, they would need a lot of carries to do much against the Ravens.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba should rebound to his elite level of production, as the Raiders have allowed a receiver to gain over 60 yards and score a touchdown in 6 straight games.

Amon-Ra St. Brown could also return to elite production, as the Patriots have allowed a receiver to gain 100 yards and score a touchdown in 3 of their last 4 games.

While the rain at MetLife Stadium could be risky, the Commanders have allowed a receiver to gain over 90 yards in 3 of their last 4 games, so Malik Nabers has some upside.

Christian Watson and Matthew Golden have a tough matchup, as the Vikings have not allowed a receiver to gain over 70 yards since Week 2. That being said, both receivers surpassed 70 yards in their Week 1 matchup.

Parker Washington could also rebound this week against the Titans, who have allowed a receiver to gain over 80 yards in 3 straight games.

Tetairoa McMillan has a solid matchup against the Saints, who have allowed an opposing receiver to gain over 75 yards in 4 of their last 5 games.

Zay Flowers could return to WR1 value under Jacoby Brissett as they face the Chargers, who have allowed a receiver to gain over 70 yards in 3 straight games.

Drake London is a concern in Week 10, as the Chiefs allow the fewest fantasy points to outside receivers.

If Garrett Wilson returns, he should see plenty of opportunities against the Bills, who allow the most targets to outside receivers.

Nico Collins scoring on just a 10% target share in Week 9 is concerning, but the Browns haven’t allowed a touchdown to a receiver in 4 straight games.

DK Metcalf may be touchdown-or-bust this week against the Bengals, who allow the fewest targets to outside receivers and the 2nd-fewest fantasy points.

The Jets run the 2nd-most man coverage in the league, and DJ Moore tends to see more targets and produce more against man coverage.

Stefon Diggs should see plenty of opportunities for targets, and it helps that the Giants allow the 3rd-most targets to slot receivers.

Carnell Tate should also see opportunities to produce against the Jaguars, who allow the 2nd-most targets to outside receivers.

Demario Douglas is a solid FLEX play against the Lions, who have allowed the 5th-most fantasy points to slot receivers.

Both Browns receivers could have a chance to produce after the catch this week against the Texans, who allow the 2nd-most yards after the catch per reception.

Wan’Dale Robinson could find his way into the end zone in Week 10, as the Jaguars have allowed a receiver to score in 2 of their last 3 games.

Khalil Shakir should see plenty of opportunities against the Jets, who allow the 2nd-most targets to slot receivers.

Ryan Flournoy is expected to bounce back after last week’s performance, but the 49ers allow the 2nd-fewest fantasy points to slot receivers.

Konata Mumpfield had 4 receptions for 93 yards and a touchdown the last time Puka Nacua didn’t play.

Ladd McConkey is ranked low, but it’s hard to trust that he’ll play a full game this week.

I’d like to wait a week with Keenan Allen and Josh Downs to see how their teams distribute targets in their respective offenses.

The Ravens have allowed an outside receiver to gain over 60 yards in every game this year, and Quentin Johnston plays primarily on the outside.

Efton Chism II could be a deep-league option who sees more opportunities, as the Lions run the 4th-most man coverage, and Chism has performed well against man coverage.

Rookie Reggie Virgil could be the WR1 in the offense and see more opportunities against the Rams, who run the 6th-most man coverage. Virgil has been seeing more opportunities against man coverage.

Jahan Dotson could be a decent sleeper play against the Chiefs, with Drake London potentially locked down. The Chiefs allow the most targets to slot receivers, so Dotson could see more opportunities.

I wouldn’t expect many opportunities for Keon Coleman, who plays primarily on the outside, as the Jets allow the 5th-fewest targets to outside receivers.

The Colts’ situation at wide receiver is ugly, but Deion Burks offers more versatility than the other options and could be a deep sleeper for fantasy managers.

Tutu Atwell is a downfield threat who could be a high-upside dart throw against the Cardinals.

Savion Williams is not an appealing deep sleeper this week, as the Vikings have allowed the 2nd-fewest fantasy points to slot receivers this season. Williams runs the majority of his routes from the slot, making this a difficult matchup.

Ja’Kobi Lane could have some fantasy value with Jacoby Brissett at quarterback, but he is better viewed as a wait-and-see option for now.

Isaac TeSlaa could be a touchdown-dependent dart throw against a Patriots defense that has struggled to contain opposing wide receivers.

Trey McBride is about to get 20 targets this week, and the Rams have also allowed a tight end to gain over 50 yards in 4 straight games.

George Kittle offers an elite floor against the Cowboys, who have allowed 40 or more yards to a tight end in 3 straight games.

I like Dalton Kincaid‘s chances of producing this week against the Jets, who have allowed a tight end to gain over 70 yards in 3 straight games.

Tyler Warren should be peppered with targets without much competition for them, and Miami has allowed the 3rd-most fantasy points to tight ends over the last month and a half.

Harold Fannin Jr. has a tougher matchup against Houston, which has allowed just 1 tight end to gain over 40 yards since Week 4.

Brenton Strange against the Titans could end up being a great play, as they have allowed back-to-back TE1 performances.

T.J. Hockenson‘s upside could change with Kirk Cousins at quarterback, but the Packers have not allowed a touchdown to a tight end since Week 3.

Darren Waller is the ultimate boom-or-bust tight end, but the Saints have allowed a touchdown to a tight end in 3 straight games.

The Vikings have not allowed a tight end to gain over 40 yards since Week 4, which is not good news for Tucker Kraft.

Chig Okonkwo could see improved production with Jayden Daniels returning to the lineup and faces a Giants team that has allowed a tight end to gain over 40 yards in 3 of its last 4 games.

It’s going to be interesting with the Rams tight ends, as the Cardinals have not allowed an opposing tight end to gain over 35 yards in 4 straight games.

AJ Barner could see more opportunities against the Raiders, who have allowed the 3rd-most targets to tight ends over the last month and a half.

Gunner Helm is a sit this week against the Jaguars, who have not allowed a tight end to gain over 40 yards.

Mark Andrews continues to be a sit option this week against the Chargers, who have allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends in recent weeks.

Brevyn Spann-Ford is an interesting tight end option who has seen at least 2 receptions in 4 straight games and gained at least 20 yards in 3 of his last 4 games.

Darnell Washington is actually an interesting play this week against the Bengals, who run the 3rd-most man coverage. Washington has seen more targets and produced better against man coverage.
