- Joe Flacco may be in line for another start as we await an update on Anthony Richardson‘s status. Flacco has been a game-changer for the Colts’ passing attack the last two weeks throwing for 527 yards and five scores. In Week 6 the Colts face a Titans defense that has been above average against opposing quarterbacks. If Flacco does in fact get the start, he is viable in 2QB leagues; other than that you are leaving him on your bench. If Richardson finds a way to suit up, you should leave him on your bench until we see him close to full health and as a threat with his legs.
- Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple weeks with an oblique injury. He was usually not in your starting lineups and his replacement shouldn’t be either. Right now it is sounding like Spencer Rattler will get a chance to lead this offense. Rattler was a long-time college starter who at one point had first-overall pick hype. Unfortunately, he did not develop much from that point and struggled on and off for the remainder of his college career. He has shown flashes but he is not someone you should look to unless you are in 2QB dynasty leagues where he has enough upside to warrant a roster spot.
- Caleb Williams has taken advantage of a soft schedule the last two weeks (something we have been pointing to since Week 1). His strong schedule continues for the next few weeks and in Week 6 he gets to face the hapless Jaguars. The Jags have allowed the most points to opposing quarterbacks this season which is the reason that Williams finds himself smack dab in the middle of QB1 territory. He has passed for 1,091 yards and five touchdowns so far this season with two games over 300 yards and two games with multiple touchdowns. The future is bright in the Windy City.
