NFL Quarterback Rankings: Week 6 Fantasy Football

RotoBaller brings you our Week 6 fantasy football quarterback rankings by authors Zach Wilkens (@LopsidedTrades) and Ryan Rufe (@RyanRufe), along with quarterback rankings analysis by Zach Wilkens. For even more Week 6 rankings and analysis, be sure to check out our positional rankings for all other positions.

 

Week 6 Quarterback Rankings Analysis

I love Jay Cutler this week, in a dome against the lowly Falcons. He's been very good all year, and it won't stop now. The same goes for Philip Rivers who gets Oakland. The Chargers actually lost in Oakland last year but Rivers still had over 400 yards and 2 TD, to go with 3 interceptions. He'll have a nice game fantasy-wise here. I'm a little worried about Aaron Rodgers,  but not too much. Miami has actually had a very good defense and is coming off their bye. He might struggle a bit here but he'll still be very good I'm sure.

Matt Ryan should rebound in a big way - he's been a different quarterback at home. Cam Newton hasn't been great but he's been very solid as a passer with just one interception on the season. Call it a gut feeling, but I think he is looking healthier and finally has a big game this week. I've been low on Nick Foles all season long and it's worked out lately. The Giants have been pretty good as well defensively, so it's hard for me to see Foles having a great game here. I'm also not fully buying the Tom Brady turnaround. I wouldn't mind being wrong here, but the WR group is still terrible in New England.

In the PIT @ CLE game, I actually like Brian Hoyer a little more. Roethlisberger left a bad taste in my mouth after failing to deliver against the Jaguars. Meanwhile Hoyer has been extremely reliable. Rarely spectacular, but he did score 21 points last week. Lastly, I'm not big on Austin Davis just yet. I'll consider myself wrong if he wows against San Francisco this week.
