Williams completed 23 of 31 passes for 231 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added nine rushes for 70 yards in the Bears' 20-19 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

The first overall pick appeared more in rhythm in his first game under interim offensive coordinator Thomas Brown, but the end result was another loss for the reeling Bears. Williams did put his team in position to pull off a win by leading a seven-play, 42-yard drive that started with him taking back-to-back sacks before recording completions of 16 and 21 yards to Rome Odunze and a 12-yard strike to Keenan Allen. However, the march ended with a blocked field goal as time expired. Williams had a compact target pool of six players on the afternoon, and he finished with his highest yardage total since Week 5. Williams' next chance to build on the positives from his performance comes in a Week 12 home divisional clash against the Vikings.

Richardson completed 20 of 30 passes for 272 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Jets. He also rushed 10 times for 32 yards and two touchdowns while fumbling twice and losing one.

Richardson was reinstated as the starter after Joe Flacco started the Colts' previous two games. The time to watch from the bench benefited Richardson, as he set a season high in passing yards, including a 10-yard touchdown pass to Josh Downs in the fourth quarter. Richardson's ability to make plays with his legs has never been in doubt, and that was on display on his touchdown runs of two yards in the second quarter and four yards in the fourth. The latter rushing score put the Colts up 28-27 with 46 seconds remaining and held up as the game-winning touchdown. Richardson will remain the starter in Week 12 against the Lions.

Levis completed 17 of 31 pass attempts for 295 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing seven times for 18 yards in Sunday's 23-13 loss to Minnesota.

Levis didn't have his best game in terms of completion rate (55 percent), setting a new low for the 2024 season against Minnesota. However, the Kentucky product did manage to bolster fantasy managers' scores with a 98-yard touchdown pass to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine on third down in the second half. Levis' inconsistent play limits his value to deeper leagues heading into next week's road tilt against the Texans.

Love completed 13 of 17 passes for 261 yards with a touchdown and an interception in the Packers' 20-19 win over the Bears on Sunday. He also rushed four times for 18 yards and another score.

Love finished the game with an elevated average of 15.4 yards per attempt, hitting on several chunk plays through the air over the course of the narrow win. The longest was a 60-yarder to Christian Watson on the second play of what would turn out to be the Packers' game-winning drive in the fourth quarter, one Love capped off himself with a one-yard touchdown run with 2:59 remaining. Love now has 534 passing yards on 36 completions over his last two games and appears to be fully past the groin injury that limited him going into the Week 10 bye, setting him up well for a Week 12 home showdown against the 49ers next Sunday.

Darnold (right hand) completed 20 of 32 pass attempts for 246 yards and two touchdowns while adding 18 rushing yards and a third score (one fumble) off of eight carries in Sunday's 23-13 win over Tennessee.

Darnold was dealing with a minor injury to his throwing hand coming out of his worst performance of the season against the Jaguars last week. The veteran signal-caller bounced back fully from the three-pick outing with three touchdowns in Minnesota's eighth win of the year. Now healthy, Darnold makes for a fine fantasy play against the flailing Bears next Sunday.

Tagovailoa completed 28 of 36 passes for 288 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions and committed a fumble recovered by Miami in the Dolphins' 34-19 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Tagovailoa posted his highest yardage total since Week 1 while tying a season high in completions and establishing a new personal season best in touchdown passes. The 2020 first-round pick connected with Jonnu Smith (one yard, 57 yards) and Tyreek Hill (eight yards) for his trio of scoring tosses, and he helmed an impressive four second-half scoring drives to help the Dolphins win going away. Tagovailoa recorded completions to nine different targets overall, affording him plenty of momentum going into a Week 12 home matchup against the Patriots.

Stafford completed 18 of 27 passes for 295 yards and four touchdowns in the Rams' 28-22 win against the Patriots on Sunday. He also rushed four times for zero yards.

Stafford faced little resistance against the Patriots defense, tossing a pair of touchdowns to Cooper Kupp, as well as one each to Puka Nacua and Colby Parkinson. Kupp and Nacua again dominated the target share from the veteran quarterback and made some explosive plays, with Kupp hauling in a 69-yard touchdown pass and Nacua garnering a big 37-yard catch of his own. The duo combined for 13 catches for 229 yards and three touchdowns, and as long as they stay healthy, Stafford's fantasy forecast seems much brighter than his dismal start of the season -- he has a 10:3 TD:INT ratio in the Rams' last four games versus a 3:4 TD:INT through the Rams' first six games with Kupp and Nacua both missing time. The Eagles and their top-tier pass defense presents a much more difficult task for Stafford and the Rams in Week 12.

Goff completed 24 of 29 passes for 412 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions and added four rushes for 21 yards in the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

Goff finished the 46-point drubbing with a perfect passer rating of 158.3, his latest milestone in what is turning into a memorable season. The veteran signal-caller connected with Amon-Ra St. Brown (27, nine yards), Jameson Williams (64 yards) and Brock Wright (five yards) for his quartet of touchdown passes, his seventh-multi TD performance in the last eight games. Both Goff's passing yardage and touchdown-pass totals were season highs as well, and he'll be set up well for another prolific afternoon when Detroit faces the vulnerable Colts defense on the road in Week 12.

Dobbs (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Seattle and will be San Francisco's emergency third quarterback, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Dobbs hasn't yet been active for a game this season with Brandon Allen working as Brock Purdy's backup. In order for Dobbs to get into Sunday's game against the Seahawks, both Purdy and Allen would need to be ruled out due to injury, illness or ejection.

Rattler (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

For a second straight game, Rattler will serve as the Saints' third emergency quarterback. That means he will only be allowed to see the field Sunday if both starter Derek Carr and backup Jake Haener leave the game due to injury.
