Episode notes
Start Matthew Stafford As A Streamer
- Start Matthew Stafford as a streamer this week despite matchup concerns because the Rams have a high implied team total and Stafford is playing well.
- Baltimore has been vulnerable to quarterbacks this year, boosting Stafford's fantasy upside.
Use Ramondre Stevenson If You Need RB Help
- Consider Ramondre Stevenson as a usable RB option while New England lacks Antonio Gibson and Travion Henderson isn't ready.
- Stevenson has been getting goal-line work and modest route participation that supports fantasy value.
Prioritize Workload Over Matchup For RBs
- Start Michael Carter based on his heavy Week 5 workload; volume matters even with a middling matchup.
- Prefer Rico Dowdle as a deeper play if Chuba Hubbard misses given a revenge spot vs. Dallas.
