Trust = spike production for that player
Quarterback
Matthew Stafford (TRUST): After four straight QB1 scoring weeks, Stafford left a ton of meat on the bone against the Vikings, completing 56.8% of his passes for 5.3 yards per attempt while throwing three interceptions.
Stafford will look to quickly get back on track against a Baltimore defense that is just reeling to close the season due to injuries. The Ravens are now 30th in passing points allowed per attempt (0.52) and 31st in passing points allowed per game (18.6 points).
We will see if the Ravens stay aggressive as they are fifth in the NFL in blitz rate (31.9%). Against the blitz this season, Stafford is third in the league in completion rate (73.6%), seventh in yards per pass attempt (8.6 Y/A) with 11 touchdowns and one interception.
