Start ‘Em

Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Indianapolis Colts: No, really. Lawrence has completed just 53.3% of his passing attempts, and he has thrown for 178 or fewer yards in three of four games. To be fair, he faced Miami at full strength on the road in Week 1, and four playoff teams in four weeks. He showed some signs of life with his first multi-TD game in Week 4 in Houston, and he jelled nicely with WR Christian Kirk. Lawrence also been without security blanket TE Evan Engram since Week 1. The Colts give up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing QBs, so if you need a bye-week replacement, Lawrence is likely available.

Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers at Los Angeles Rams: If you had any reservations about getting Love back into the lineup, forget about all of that. After a two-game absence due to an MCL issue, he was back with 389 yards, a 59.3% completion rate, and four TDs. Yes, he also tossed three picks, but you can’t complain too much. He’ll now face a Rams pass D that has allowed eight pass TDs and 932 yards through four games, giving up the sixth-most points to opposing QBs.

Sit ‘Em

Andy Dalton, Carolina Panthers at Chicago Bears: If you were looking for a bye-week option and kicking the tires on Dalton, well, don’t. He has injected optimism and excitement into the Panthers offense, making them look like an NFL-caliber unit again. However, for fantasy quarterbacks, the Bears are statistically the worst defensive unit to face, allowing just two TDs with five INTs through four games.

Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys at Pittsburgh Steelers: In a week with four teams on bye, especially if Prescott is your QB1, you won’t necessarily sit him. However, Prescott faces a tough game on the road in Pittsburgh, as the Steelers are sixth-best in fantasy in terms of limiting the opposing QBs’ point total. Add in the fact there is rain in the forecast, perhaps heavy at times, and we could have more of a ground-based attack, which hurts Prescott’s potential.
