Quarterback
Aaron Rodgers: The Packers' offense has started to show signs of life over the past month, but that has not brought about strong fantasy output for Rodgers himself. Rodgers hit the bye week as the QB19 (13.7) against a depleted Chicago defense. In that game, Rodgers completed just 58.1% of his passes for 182 yards (5.9 Y/A). With only one touchdown pass, Rodgers has thrown more than two touchdowns just once this season.
The Rams have allowed a QB1 scorer in three of their past four games (one of which was Andy Dalton), but Rodgers has given us little reason this season to handle him as anything other than a QB2 option. He has finished higher than QB12 just once this season.
