Derek Carr Las Vegas Raiders @ Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers have given up an average of 263 passing yards to opposing QBs this season. They have given up a top 15 QB finish in 5 of the 7 games that they have played this season. The Chargers have given up an average of 22.59 points per game to opposing QBs this season. They are the 30th ranked defense at defending the QB position.


Drew Lock Denver Broncos @ Atlanta Falcons 

Last week Broncos QB Drew Lock showed some of his first round talent versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Last week was Locks best game of the season and he could very well have a better game this week as he faces the Falcons who are one of if not the worst defense at defending QBs this season. The Falcons have given up an average of 323 passing yards per game to opposing QBs this season. They have given up a top 15 QB finish in 6 of the 8 games that they have played this season.

This week the Cowboys are having a competition to decide who to start at QB this week versus the Steelers.
