Baker Mayfield, QB, Cleveland Browns

The Los Angeles Chargers have been another great fantasy matchup for quarterbacks this season.

They're allowing top-10 fantasy production to the position, while numberFire's models have them ranked 22nd against the pass. They have allowed fewer than 20 real-world points to only one of their five opponents, and the 130 total points they have allowed is tied for the 11th-most in the NFL.

Baker Mayfield has had some mixed results since taking over starting quarterback duties for the Cleveland Browns, but he has shown plenty of promise.

In Week 5, against a Baltimore Ravens defense that has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, Mayfield dropped 18.0 fantasy points -- the most of his young career.

You're taking a gamble with Mayfield, as he's still largely unproven, but this matchup stacks the deck in his favor. And if he comes up big against the Chargers, you can feel pretty good about continuing to ride for the next couple of weeks, as he takes on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Pittsburgh Steelers, who are allowing the first- and second-most fantasy points per game to the position.
