The Chiefs and Bills...
Combine to score 100 total points, fantasy managers hit the fantasy jackpot in this Week 6 matchup
The Week 6 matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs will be a battle of the top two offenses in the league. The offensive firepower in this league is like hitting the fantasy jackpot and is a rematch of their playoff matchup from last season. That game saw a total of 78 points and was an incredible football game.
Fantasy managers know to play their studs weekly but play every team member in this high-scoring affair. Any player can score from either offense, which makes Zach Moss, James Cook, Khalil Shakir, and even Jake Kumerow and Isaiah Hodgins from the Bills worth a look in deeper fantasy leagues.
The Chiefs could have the likes of Isiah Pacheco and Justin Watson and even witness the first NFL touchdown from rookie Skyy Moore. This offensive onslaught is a dream matchup for fantasy managers. So get your favorite adult beverage and favorite chips and enjoy the fantasy fireworks as the teams combine for 100-plus points.
Rhamondre Stevenson...
will finish as a top-three RB in Week 6
With Damien Harris expected to miss several weeks due to a hamstring injury, Rhamondre Stevenson steps into a prime role for the New England Patriots and your fantasy lineups.
The Patriots will be forced to start rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe in their Week 6 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The game plan is evidence against a Browns run defense allowing 138.2 rushing yards per game, the fifth-highest in the league.
Stevenson is an every-down back who provides the top juke rate (61.7%) among running backs and is seventh in yards created. If that isn't enough, Bill Belichick loves him, and so will fantasy managers when Stevenson provides a top-three finish among running backs in Week 6.
Eno Benjamin...
Finishes as an RB1 this week
Eno Benjamin was the most added running back in fantasy football heading into Week 6. Benjamin rewards those fantasy managers with an RB1 finish in Week 6.
The Arizona Cardinals running backs, James Conner and Darrell Williams, are banged up and look unlikely to suit this week, leaving the door open for Benjamin to step in and take advantage of a fantastic matchup.
Benjamin will have the luxury of taking on the Seattle Seahawks, who surrender the league-worst 170.2 rushing yards per game. He possesses unlimited upside in what is projected to be a high-scoring matchup as the lead back in the Cardinals backfield.
