Chargers News: Fantasy Expert Only Likes One QB In Bolts, Cowboys Matchup
Week 6 pits two of the biggest names at the quarterback position against each other as the Dallas Cowboys' Dak Prescott and your Los Angeles Chargers' Justin Herbert face off in a primetime clash tonight.
Monday night concludes another week of NFL football but Kyle Soppe of Pro Football Talk isn't so sure Dallas' signal-caller is up to the task.
Dak Prescott: He has name recognition and plays for “America’s Team,” but there is no need to consider him a viable option — even against a less-than-stingy Chargers defense. Prescott has yet to finish a single week better than QB17 and has just one multi-touchdown effort on his 2023 résumé.
The Cowboys' latest showing won't inspire confidence after Prescott threw three interceptions against a vaunted 49ers defense last Sunday night.
LA emerges from their early season bye week and Soppe prefers Herbert in this clash despite a finger injury that could limit the young superstar.
Justin Herbert: The Chargers’ signal-caller has been a top-six fantasy QB in three of four games this season and has accounted for multiple scores in each of his past six regular-season games. Even coming off of a bye, he deserves to be downgraded a bit for the finger fracture on his non-throwing hand against an elite pass rush, but Herbert’s far from falling outside the must-start tier.
Micah Parsons is surely seeking a revenge game after San Francisco shut him and the rest of Dan Quinn's defense down but Herbert presents an equally tough test.
Many doubts surround both teams after equally underwhelming starts but Kellen Moore is seeking revenge against his old team.
Facing the quarterback he helped develop while with Dallas, Moore's newest project in Herbert has the advantage in this important contest with all eyes watching.
