Quarterback

Chalk:

Tom Brady, $8,700 at Cleveland Browns - Everyone will want to roster Tom Brady in his return to the field against the Cleveland Browns, while Aaron Rodgers and Ben Roethlisberger also both find themselves in great spots.

Pivots:

Eli Manning, $7,700 at Green Bay Packers - Eli Manning has struggled this year, but he finds himself in a nice bounce-back spot against the Green Bay Packers, who have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points (ESPN Standard) per game to opposing quarterbacks this season. Their funnel defense has allowed the fewest yards per carry (1.8) in the league but the second-highest yards per pass attempt (8.9).

Manning has averaged 41 pass attempts over the past three games, and with Rashad Jennings still dealing with a thumb injury, the New York Giants will likely employ an extremely pass-heavy attack against Green Bay. At his price tag, Manning is worth a look based on volume and matchup in this potential shootout.
