Drake Maye
vs Josh Allen

“Maye has officially ended his playoff and early-season skid, and he’s a set-it-and-forget-it QB1 for now. MarShawn Lloyd Might Be Semi-Useful MarShawn Lloyd led Green Bay’s backfield in carries (10) and rushing yards (31). No one is jumping for joy for 3.1 yards per carry, but Lloyd punched in two rushing touchdowns and added a six-yard reception on two targets.”

“Maye is another option I keep coming back to. His Footballers ceiling is nearly identical to Burrow’s, and Maye/Doubs with Bowers on the other side gives me another combination worth building out . I would compare the complete stacks before deciding which QB I prefer.”

“Last week, among 32 qualifying quarterbacks, Maye was 17th in yards per attempt, 12th in passing success rate, and 20th in highly accurate throw rate. The Raiders have been a mixed bag as a pass defense, allowing the 13th-highest passing success rate, the fifth-lowest EPA per dropback, and ranking 16th in yards per attempt. The heavy inclusion of motion won’t be as big of a cheat code for Maye and the Pats this week, though.”

“He completed 59.5% of his passes, lost a fumble, and had an interception (not his fault), but Maye made up ground with 3 passing touchdowns, a two-point conversion, and 54 rushing yards to get back in QB1 graces. I even benched Maye in a league last week. And while I would have liked those points (nobody cares, but I still narrowly won the matchup), it was a major step in a positive direction for using Maye since he has a strong upcoming schedule.”

“Buffalo Bills Outside of a wild tipped interception, Patriots QB Drake Maye caught the good end of variance in this game. He got lucky on a few would-be fumbles and two of his touchdown passes were spectacular catches by his receiver. But on the whole, this was an important bounce-back game for Maye.”

“( Mark Daniels ) Patriots Patriots QB Drake Maye had seven turnovers so far this season, but his three touchdown passes, including one to WR Efton Chism , helped them escape with a win over Buffalo. “We definitely have to build off it ,” Maye said in his postgame press conference . “This is relieving a little bit. . . .”

“On Sunday, Maye put up 27.2 fantasy points, nearly matching his total from the previous three weeks combined. He’s currently the top fantasy quarterback for the week and will try to keep that momentum going in upcoming contests against the Las Vegas Raiders, New York Jets and Chicago Bears.

“Patriots Patriots HC Mike Vrabel spoke about trying to have more control over the offense and making better decisions, rather than forcing the play as QB Drake Maye did in the team’s recent loss. “I think sometimes, we really want to make a good score, right? Sometimes we’re so focused on it, we try to choke the life out of the golf club, and we’re squeezing it so damn tight that the ball has no choice but to go sideways,” Vrabel said on sports radio WEEI, via ESPN .”

“Drake Maye is legitimately playing as bad as any starting quarterback in the NFL. What happened to the former AFC Champion and QB2 overall last year? I’m not in full-blown panic mode in dynasty yet, but I’m ready to jump ship in redraft.”

“Jacksonville Jaguars Drake Maye is playing awful football right now. There’s no way to sugarcoat it. The 2025 runner-up MVP has committed seven turnovers in three games and melted down once again against the Jags.”

“Since 2020 (his breakout), Allen averages 22.7 fantasy points per game when his defense allows 24 or more points. The Raiders have allowed 10 passing touchdowns in the past three games and are coming off allowing a QB1 overall week to Drake Maye (39.5 points). The Raiders have also allowed rushing production to Malik Willis (39 yards and a touchdown), Tyler Shough (36 yards), and Maye (25 yards and a score).”

“Allen is on pace for 812 rushing yards and 27 rushing touchdowns. For context, LaDainian Tomlinson holds the single-season record with 28. LT was a running back; Allen plays quarterback.”

“Josh Allen averaged 21.6 passing points per game (standard scoring) across the first two weeks of the season. Over the last two, he’s been at 7.1.”

“Only Josh Allen has run hotter, and we saw Allen hit a spot of regression last week. The 49ers are stacking enough injuries to impact things, too. It sounds as if Trent Williams will be good for Sunday.”

“LAC | DraftKings: $8,000/FanDuel: $9,100* It’s odd to say Josh Allen could be a contrarian play, but his rostership should come in very moderate this week. There’s a $500 difference between Allen and Lamar Jackson , and Jackson is in a high-volume matchup against Dallas, making him a popular play this week. Playing Allen doesn’t need much justification.”

“Josh Allen should meet little resistance, and James Cook can gash them on the ground, too.”

“Bills Fantasy Quarterback Preview Josh Allen (TRUST) We could be seeing the best season of Allen's career, which is saying something. We are only two weeks in, so we will keep things in check, but Allen is averaging career-highs in touchdown rate (8.3%), yards per pass attempt (9.7), and yards per completion (14.6). The Bills are throwing more, and they are throwing it downfield, something we were betting on this offseason.”

“Last Thursday, Allen ran in Buffalo’s first TD himself , then proceeded to spread the love to Joshua Palmer , Dawson Knox , and Dalton Kincaid before running in another TD himself for good measure. Only then did he finally hand it off to Cook for Buffalo’s sixth and final trip to the end zone. But this was ultimately the Josh Allen show, which is exactly why he lands among our overachievers this week.”

“Josh Allen remains a two-way scoring threat for the second straight week — 2 rushing TDs again. Another dual-threat scoring day (20-of-31 for 248, 3 TD passes, plus 14 carries for 69 yards with the aforementioned scores). Buffalo opened with a notable heavy package: three tight ends on the field to start.”

“Houston Texans Hot take alert: Josh Allen is good at football. The Bills quarterback supermanned his squad to a win over the vaunted Texans defense, creating big play after big play and frustrating an extremely talented unit on the other side. Offseason acquisition D.J.”
