Gardner Minshew Throws Over 300 Yards, Commits Four Turnovers

The newly instated Indianapolis Colts' starting quarterback, Gardner Minshew, had a rough outing against his former team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, as they lost 37-20. Minshew was active in the passing game as the Colts found themselves looking to get out of an early deficit, completing 33 of his 55 passes for 329 yards and a touchdown. […]

Tyrod Taylor Throws For 200 Yards Against Buffalo

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor threw for 200 yards and added another 24 on the ground in the team's 14-9 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He started in place of Daniel Jones (neck). The journeyman nearly completed what would have been one of the biggest upsets of the 2023 season. Two targets to tight […]

C.J. Stroud Throws Two Touchdowns In Win

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud completed 13-of-27 passes for 199 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the team's 20-13 win over the New Orleans Saints. It wasn't the most efficient start from the rookie in Week 6. He also ended his NFL streak for most pass attempts (192) without an interception to begin a […]

Tua Tagovailoa Throws Three Touchdowns In Week 6

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa returned to QB1 territory in the team's Week 6 win over the Carolina Panthers.

P.J. Walker Throws Two Interceptions In Upset Win In Week 6

Cleveland Browns quarterback P.J. Walker completed 18 of his 34 passes for 192 yards and two interceptions in a 19-17 win over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6.

Bryce Young Throws For 217 Yards, Touchdown In Week 6 Loss

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young completed 23 of his 38 passes for 217 yards and a touchdown in a 42-21 loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 6.

Joe Burrow Leads Cincinnati To Another Win

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow finished with 185 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception off 24-for-35 passing in Sunday's win over the Seahawks. He added two carries for four yards. The 2020 No. 1 overall pick threw for over 300 yards in Week 5. However, he didn't come close to that mark in this one. […]

Mac Jones Picked Off In Week 6 Loss

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones completed 24 of 33 passes (72.7 percent) for 200 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. He also took three sacks and rushed for a loss of one yard. Jones' job security was in question ahead of Sunday, and although he did […]

Matthew Stafford Has Solid Week 6 Outing

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford did not have to do much in the team's 26-9 win against the Arizona Cardinals. Stafford completed 15 of his 24 passes for 226 yards and a touchdown while rushing the ball once for two yards. The 35-year-old attempted the fewest passes he has in a game this season, […]

Derek Carr Throws For Season-High 353 Yards In Loss

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr completed 32-of-50 passes for 353 yards and a touchdown against the Houston Texans, but ultimately threw an interception on the final offensive play of the game on a key fourth down. New Orleans was playing from behind, causing a pass-heavy game script for Carr. He also carried the ball […]

Baker Mayfield Struggles During Week 6 Loss

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield was unable to find much success during the Week 6 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Coming into this game, Mayfield has played fairly well. However, his decision making continues to be a big problem for him. The Lions were able to get pressure on Mayfield, which forced him to […]

Brian Hoyer Holds On For The Win

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Brian Hoyer entered the game in the second half of the Week 6 win against the New England Patriots. Hoyer completed six passes on 10 attempts for 102 yards after Raiders starter Jimmy Garoppolo exited the game with a back injury. The veteran quarterback did not make any big mistakes and […]

Justin Fields Suffers Dislocated Thumb

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (thumb) will undergo an MRI. The signal-caller dislocated his thumb during Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings and couldn't grip the ball. While X-rays were negative, he'll need an MRI on Monday to see how bad the damage is. The Bears play the Raiders in Week 7, possibly without Fields […]

Jared Goff Throws For 353 Yards In Win

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 30 of his 44 passing attempts for 353 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 6 road win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The veteran paid off for fantasy managers once again, shredding up a solid defense in the NFC victory. Next up for Goff is a matchup with […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Taken To Local Medical Facility

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (back) didn't return to Sunday's win over the New England Patriots. The veteran signal-caller went 14-for-22 for 162 yards, one touchdown, and one interception before his premature departure. Head coach Josh McDaniels couldn't provide an update on Garoppolo's condition, only mentioning he was transported to a local medical facility. […]

Lamar Jackson Throws For 223 Yards In Win

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson didn't exactly play to his full potential but was able to lead the team to a 24-16 win over the Titans. The former MVP completed 21 of his 30 attempts for 223 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He also added 62 yards on 13 carries which included some dazzling […]

Geno Smith Throws Two Picks In Week 6

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith went 27-for-41 for 323 passing yards and gained 20 yards on four carries in Sunday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran had a decent start to the game, completing 13 of his 17 pass attempts before halftime but the tide turned after the break. The Bengals' pass rush overwhelmed […]

Zach Wilson Leads Jets To Second Straight Win

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson completed 19 of his 33 pass attempts for 186 scoreless yards in a thrilling 20-14 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Wilson did not turn the ball over and added 15 rushing yards on four carries. For the second consecutive week, the 24-year-old posted modest numbers but effectively led New […]

Jalen Hurts Throws Three Interceptions In First Loss

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 28 of 45 passes for 281 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions, adding 47 yards and a rushing touchdown on eight carries during the team's 14-20 loss to the New York Jets. The three interceptions tied the 25-year-old's career-high for most thrown in a game, raising his season total […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Leaves Early With A Back Injury

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (back) completed 14 passes on 22 attempts (63.6%) for 162 yards and a touchdown in the Week 6 win against the New England Patriots.

Lane Johnson Injured In Week 6 Loss

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) was injured in the Week 6 upset loss to the New York Jets and was eventually ruled out. Johnson's ankle was rolled up on while he was engaged in a block in the first quarter and was never able to return to the contest. The 33-year-old four-time Pro […]

Brock Purdy Has Career-Worst Game

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy struggled Sunday against a talented, energized Browns defense in Cleveland. Among career games he has started and finished, Sunday was his first loss. Purdy entered this contest having just completed a decisive victory against Dallas that prompted analysts to place Purdy in MVP conversations. Those talks will be put […]

Kirk Cousins Throws For 181 Yards In Win

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 21-of-31 passes for 181 yards and a touchdown in the team's 19-13 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 6. The veteran was without his All-Pro No. 1 wide receiver Justin Jefferson on Sunday, and the offense certainly looked different without their leading receiver in this one. Moving forward, […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Doubtful To Return On Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (back) is doubtful to return to Sunday's meeting with the Patriots, his former team. If the oft-injured signal-caller doesn't return, he'll finish this one with 162 yards off 14-for-22 passing while throwing one touchdown and one interception. Brian Hoyer is now in under center, although nobody knows who will […]

Trent Williams Wearing A Boot After Loss To Cleveland

San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Trent Williams (ankle) needed a walking boot after Sunday's loss to Cleveland. The 35-year-old briefly exited in Week 6 but returned, albeit with his ankle heavily taped. The 49ers dealt with a few significant injuries versus the Browns, with Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and Christian McCaffrey (oblique) both exiting. Williams will […]

Trevor Lawrence "Feeling OK," Not Sure About Thursday Night

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (knee) finished Sunday's win over the Colts by throwing for 181 yards, two touchdowns, and a pick.

Although he stated he's feeling "ok," […]

Desmond Ridder Throws For Over 300 Yards In Loss

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder put together his second straight 300-yard performance against the Washington Commanders in Week 6. The young signal-caller completed 28-of-47 passing attempts for 307 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions in the loss. The Falcons actually had a chance to win this game, but poor clock management and a bad […]

Ryan Tannehill On Crutches Following Loss In London

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) was seen using crutches after Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens in London. Tannehill, who threw 76 yards and a touchdown, injured his ankle and was transported to the locker room on a cart. Normally, it wouldn't take long for a player to receive an MRI. But it may […]
