Fantasy Life Articles on Kirk Cousins
From the article
Kirk Cousins Throws For 400 Yards and 3 TDs. After a scorching start to the season, Cousins came back down to Earth in Week 5, throwing for 243 yards and one touchdown. It was a bad game for the Raiders offense as a unit, but a bounceback is in store this week. The Raiders return home to host a tired, struggling Buffalo Bills pass defense that just surrendered nearly 400 yards and three touchdowns to Matthew Stafford.
STACKED’s take
Cousins projects for 400 yards and 3 TDs against Bills' 4th-worst pass defense.
The source projects Kirk Cousins to throw for 400 yards and 3 TDs in Week 6 against Buffalo. After a down Week 5 (243 yards, 1 TD), Cousins faces a Bills pass defense allowing 22.8 fantasy points per game to QBs (4th-most in football). Buffalo just surrendered nearly 400 yards and 3 TDs to Matthew Stafford. The Bills' unpressured metrics are particularly weak: 77% completion rate (3rd-worst), 7.9 yards/attempt (8th-worst), 7.4% TD rate (5th-worst), and 15.7 passing FPPG (4th-most). Buffalo allows the 5th-highest explosive pass play rate (16.4%) and 5th-highest EPA/dropback (0.226). The Raiders' return home should help, and volume (40+ pass attempts expected) combined with Buffalo's struggling linebackers and corners in zone coverage should allow Cousins to pick apart the secondary.
