He\u2019s currently averaging 18.36 fantasy points per game and hasn\u2019t had a game lower than 11.44 so far. The rushing aspect he\u2019s brought has been a nice surprise so far. It\u2019s been a bit inconsistent but his 121 rushing yards are tenth most at the quarterback position. That\u2019s more than guys like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/06\/18\/deshaun-watson-fantasy-football-outlook-2020-profile\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Deshaun Watson<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/07\/30\/gardner-minshew-fantasy-football-preview\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Gardner Minshew<\/a><\/strong>, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/10\/17\/week-6-draftkings-plays-mike-davis-a-j-brown-more\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Joe Burrow<\/a><\/strong>. If Bridgewater is able to continue to chip in with his legs, those are just extra bonus points on top. He\u2019s been decent as a passer as well but hasn\u2019t capitalized in the touchdown department. This week he gets to travel to New Orleans to face the Saints in the dome. The Saints are usually a solid defense, but they\u2019ve allowed the fourth-most points to the quarterback position this season. This should also be a situation where Teddy and the Panthers are chasing points and he\u2019s passing the ball more often which should bode well for those that slot him in their starting spot.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Honorable Mentions \u2013 Andy Dalton<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0(DAL\u00a0\u2013 45%) @ WAS,<strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/10\/17\/week-6-draftkings-plays-mike-davis-a-j-brown-more\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Kyle Allen<\/a> <\/strong>(WAS\u00a0\u2013 3%) v DET<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Running Back \u2013\u00a0Boston Scott\u00a0(PHI \u2013 24%) v NYG<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not sure if people are scarred from his Week 1 performance, but I\u2019m legitimately shocked to see Scott with such a low roster percentage. This is a guy that is going to be a three-down workhorse, involved in the passing game, and should see 15-20 touches in a favorable matchup. It might only be one week, but that\u2019s all we need here and might be all that a lot of fantasy managers need. This week\u2019s matchup against the Giants is nothing to be scared of. The Giants are mid-pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to running backs this year.
