It was a devastating week for Drew Brees owners, which was myself included. He failed to deliver a touchdown in a home matchup against the Lions. Overall it was a down weeks for most quarterbacks. We saw Derek Carr, Matthew Stafford, and Joe Flacco deliver solid games, but other than that it was fairly meh. This week doesn't have a lot of tremendous matchups, instead it is sort of murky waters.

Andrew Luck is coming off of a four touchdown performance against the Jets, and will draw a tougher matchup, but not one to shy away from. Indy has the second highest team total on the slate, wedged between New England and Tampa Bay. This is a must win game for both teams, yet Vegas has Indy has comfortable favorites. This has a lot to do with Houston's splits, alongside their recent play. They are allowing a 114 passer rating over the last three games, and a 99.5 passer rating on the road. Allowing 2.7 passing touchdowns per game in that span is a bonus for Luck as well. The Colts have run the ninth most passing plays per game this season, and Luck is averaging 24 DK points per game at home. Houston's pass rush has hurt a bit with injuries, and whenever Luck has time, this offense is one of the best in terms of fantasy.
