  • Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence: Struggles with accuracy in loss

    Lawrence completed 16 of 35 passes for 162 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed five times for 33 yards in the Jaguars' 23-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday. He also lost a fumble with 50 seconds remaining.

    Lawrence averaged just 4.6 yards per attempt and completed less than 50.0 percent of his throws for the first time since Week 2 and only his second time as a pro. The first overall pick's fumble on a strip sack at the Colts' 47-yard line with less than 50 seconds left sealed another loss for Jacksonville, ending the game on a particularly sour note. The rookie also threw for under 200 yards and went without a touchdown or interception for the second straight contest, leaving his fantasy managers in a lurch. He continued to struggle connecting with his wideouts as well, as nine of his completions went to tight end Dan Arnold and running back James Robinson. Lawrence's next opportunity to rectify the various wrongs come in a Week 11 home matchup against the 49ers.

  • Ryan Tannehill QB | TEN

    Titans' Ryan Tannehill: Manages Titans to win

    Tannehill completed 19 of 27 pass attempts for 213 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Saints. He added five rushes for one yard and a touchdown.

    Tannehill didn't lead the Titans' to their most effective offensive performance, though he did manage to turn in his first effort without a turnover since Week 5. His lone passing score of the game came early in the third quarter on a two-yard pass to MyCole Pruitt. Tannehill also chipped in a one-yard rushing touchdown, the fourth time in his last five games that he's found the end zone with his legs. Tannehill should be in for an easier matchup as Tennessee takes on Houston in Week 11.

  • Case Keenum QB | CHI

    Browns' Case Keenum: Plays in blowout loss

    Keenum completed eight of 12 pass attempts for 81 yards against New England on Sunday.

    Keenum stepped in for Baker Mayfield (knee/shoulder) in the third quarter and mopped up in the blowout loss. It's believed that Mayfield could have kept playing if the game hadn't been so lopsided, so Mayfield is expected to start against Detroit in Week 11.

  • Mike White QB | CAR

    Jets' Mike White: Four picks in disastrous showing

    White completed 24 of 44 passes for 251 yards and four interceptions in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Buffalo.

    White was completely overmatched by the ferocious Bills defense, and he was finally pulled from the game after taking a sack on New York's final drive. Joe Flacco came in and proceeded to complete all three of his passes for 47 yards and a touchdown. White's time as New York's starting quarterback appears to have come to an end as abruptly as it started, as the Jets will have to consider trotting Flacco out there in Week 11 against the Dolphins, even if rookie Zach Wilson (knee) still isn't ready to play. Coach Robert Saleh said after the game that the team won't make a decision at quarterback until checking on Wilson's health, per Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports, so expect further clarification on where White stands in the pecking order once the Jets resume practicing Wednesday.

  • Browns' Baker Mayfield: No structural damage in knee

    Mayfield underwent an X-ray on his right knee following the Browns' 45-7 loss to the Patriots on Sunday, with the tests revealing no structural damage, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    Per Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal, head coach Kevin Stefanski expects Mayfield to be able to play next weekend against the Lions. That said, the signal-caller -- who is playing through a torn labrum in his left shoulder -- said after Sunday's loss that he's banged up and will take things day by day during the upcoming week per Ulrich.

  • Mac Jones QB | SF

    Patriots' Mac Jones: Highly effective in victory

    Jones completed 19 of 23 pass attempts for 198 yards and three touchdowns against Cleveland on Sunday.

    This game turned into a laugher in a hurry, but Jones played impressively for the portion of the contest that was competitive, and Jones' own play was part of the reason why the Patriots generated such a big lead in the first place. He showed more willingness to attack the defense downfield -- something that was lacking in his earlier starts -- and if Jones can maintain that level of aggressiveness, then the whole Patriots offense could graduate to the next tier as a group. It might be tough for Jones to look as sharp on a short week against Atlanta on Thursday, but by every measure, the Falcons are a more inviting defense than the Browns one Jones just lit up.

  • Josh Allen QB | BUF

    Bills' Josh Allen: Bounces back with 366 passing yards

    Allen completed 21 of 28 passes for 366 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 45-17 win over the Jets. He added three yards on two rushing attempts.

    After failing to lead his team into the end zone in last week's upset loss to Jacksonville, Allen didn't take long to end his touchdown drought, capping Buffalo's first drive with a 15-yard touchdown pass to third-string running back Matt Breida. He added a 12-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs in the final minute of the first half to take a 17-3 lead into the halftime break, and it was all Bills after that, as they built up a 38-3 lead by the end of the third quarter. Allen set a new season high in passing yards while eclipsing 350 for the third time, and he has also tossed multiple touchdown passes in all but two games this season. He'll remain a top-end fantasy option under center in Week 11 against the generous Colts secondary.

  • Dak Prescott QB | DAL

    Cowboys' Dak Prescott: Bounces back in blowout win

    Prescott completed 24 of 31 passes for 296 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 43-3 win over the Falcons. He added five yards and a touchdown on two rushing attempts.

    Prescott made sure to avoid the same fate as last week, when the Cowboys dug themselves in a 16-0 halftime hole, as he capped Dallas' opening drive with a 13-yard touchdown pass to CeeDee Lamb. He added a nine-yard touchdown to Lamb -- who later exited due to an arm contusion -- with 1:10 to go before halftime. Prescott also accounted for all of the second-half points scored by either team when he ran it in himself from four yards out late in the third quarter. Lamb's injury isn't believed to be serious, and with Michael Gallup (calf) coming back from IR for this game, Prescott should have his full complement of receiving weapons when the Cowboys travel to Kansas City in Week 11.

  • Browns' Baker Mayfield: Exits Sunday's game

    Mayfield was forced out of Sunday's game against the Patriots with a knee issue, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Prior to being replaced by Case Keenum, Mayfield had completed 11 of 21 passes for 73 yards with a TD and a pick. Per Dan Labbe of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, it looked like Mayfield could have returned to the contest, but with the Browns down big, it looks like Keenum will close things out. Mayfield, who has been managing left shoulder and foot issues of late, will almost assuredly be listed on his team's injury report ahead of next weekend's game against the Lions.

  • Colt McCoy QB | ARI

    Cardinals' Colt McCoy: Getting another spot start Sunday

    McCoy will be the Cardinals' starting quarterback in place of Kyler Murray (ankle) for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

    Murray appeared to be a bit healthier this week than he was during Week 9 prep, actually making an appearance on the practice field as a limited participant Friday. The Cardinals took a decision on Murray down to the wire but ultimately opted to keep him sidelined due to the sprained ankle he suffered during a Week 8 loss to the Packers. McCoy fared well in place of Murray last Sunday at San Francisco, completing 22 of 26 passes for 249 yards and one touchdown while supplying 23 more yards on seven carries.
