Well, you gotta give it to the aged husk of Aaron Rodgers. He proved in week three that if he eats the right combination of clay, pixie dust, and Mr. Goodbar’s, he can conjure up a multiple-touchdown game. But let’s not overreact here, people. Rodgers is sitting at a 59.4% completion percentage. Fifty-eight point four. He’s chucking the ball nearly 40 times per game and averages less than 250 passing yards. A-a-ron will have his occasional multi-touchdown game. But he’s nothing more than a desperation superflex start in potential high-scoring affairs. The Browns defense has stiffened up after a rough Week 1 and given up just two passing touchdowns over the past two weeks. Pass. (No, not you, Aaron. The people wanting to start you).
What in the 2020 is going on here?! Is he startable? Is he back? Two games. Two touchdowns thrown. EACH. Not total. Yeah, I’m talking about Deshaun Watson. I can’t believe it either. The passing yardage total is still low, throwing over 205 yards just once. But adding an average of 35 rushing yards per game is helping keep the grotesque floor a bit higher. High enough to start? Not yet. But high enough that he should be on your radar in Superflex leagues. A game total under 40 isn’t one I’m looking to start a quarterback who hasn’t thrown for over 250 yards since 2023 in. –Jay Felicio
