Michael Penix Jr. Faces Tough Test Against Bills in Week 6
Michael Penix Jr. is coming off a 313-yard, two-touchdown performance in Week 4, and although a Week 5 bye afforded him extra time to prepare for the team's Week 6 opponent, the Bills will present a challenge nevertheless. Buffalo has allowed the seventh fewest fantasy points per game to opposing QBs so far this season, and have limited teams to 154 passing yards per contest, which is second-fewest in the league. It also won't help that Darnell Mooney (hamstring) has been ruled out for this one. On the bright side, this game features one of the highest expected point totals on the slate (49.5), and the Falcons could be playing from behind for much of the game, which could mean that the second-year quarterback will have to throw it more to keep pace. The 25-year-old will also have the home crowd at his back, and there will be no weather elements to contend with inside the dome in Atlanta, but in the end the lefty QB projects as a low-end QB2 this week.
