| NE | Not the best matchup by the numbers but he should throw it 40+ times and good things will happen. | ||
| @Hou | Threw for 318 against them earlier this year and Texan secondary remains their weakness on defense. | ||
| KC | Threw for 268/3 against them earlier this year and his physical WRs will give them a lot of problems. | ||
| @Det | Fantastic matchup against vulnerable secondary and TE Finely back last week was huge. | ||
| Chi | Bear defense is the most predictable in the league and giving up 2.5 TDs per game to QBs in their last five. | ||
| @NO | Saints still have major issues in their secondary so he should take advantage of depleted CB group. | ||
| @Ten | Tricky matchup and coming off his injury but Tennessee still has been thrown on for the most part all year. | ||
| TB | Played much better in the second half last week and great matchup as Tampa giving up 3rd most points to QBs in their last four. | ||
| Ind | Threw for 311/1 against them earlier this year and Colts do still start two rookie CBs if Hayden is out again. | ||
| @Bal | Ravens are down a starting CB this week and no LB Suggs so Pittsburgh should spread them out and throw it. | ||
| NYG | Giants are giving up the sixth most points per game to QBs in their last four so he does have a chance. | ||
| @SD | Threw for only 97 yards against them earlier this year and Chargers are playing well on defense so don't expect much. | ||
| Cle | Threw for 318/1 against them earlier this year and should have a solid game. | ||
| @Den | Denver still stingy in giving up only 186 passing per game in their last four but he has the depth at WR to hurt them. | ||
| Jac | No pass rush and no CB Mathis certainly gives him a chance to put up decent numbers. | ||
| Oak | Seattle secondary still vulnerable and giving up 270 yards passing in their last four. | ||
| Was | Tough matchup by the numbers and hasn't excelled against Washington lately but still a viable starter. | ||
| Ari | Looking good these days and he's running a ton so production should be there as long as game is relatively close. | ||
| @StL | Went off against them last time with 279/3 against them earlier this year so has a chance. | ||
| @Min | Very scary matchup on the road as Viking pass rush could wreak serious havoc and CB Winfield could be back. | ||
| @SF | 49ers giving up 286 passing per game in their last five to QBs but he's never a sure thing. | ||
| Car | Playing very poorly and the Panthers' secondary is one of the best in football so forget it. | ||
| @Atl | Falcons giving up the 2nd most ppg. to QBs in their last five games so he could do something of note. | ||
| @NO | He should see the field more than usual this week and Saints are very depleted at corner. | ||
| GB | Should get the start but not exactly playing well this year but some Packer injuries help. | ||
| @Cin | No way the stingy Bengal corners give up much against this mediocre passing game. | ||
| @Phi | Playing better lately and he did throw from 284/2 against them earlier this year but hard to rely on this offense. | ||
| @Dal | Still too much downside on the road against a solid Cowboy defense. | ||
| Pit | Hasn't thrown a TD in three games but no S Polamalu certainly helps. | ||
| @Buf | Bill defense is still depleted with injuries but that means they'll run it a ton. | ||
| Mia | Has a chance against 2 rookie CBs and Miami giving up 4th most fantasy points to QBs in its last five but he's shaky. | ||
| @NYJ | CB Revis in their secondary may contain Smith so not much potential this week. | ||
| Sea | Way too much downside as there will be chemistry issues with his WRs. | ||
