In Marcus Mariota’s five starts this season, he has two QB1 weekly finishes (QB6, QB9). In those games, he has averaged five rushing attempts and 31.8 rushing yards. Among 45 qualifying quarterbacks, Mariota has ranked ninth in yards per attempt, 21st in highly accurate throw rate, 31st in catchable target rate, and eighth in hero throw rate. This week, he should be on the bench for most fantasy teams. Since Week 8, Denver has allowed the fifth-fewest yards per attempt, the fourth-lowest passer rating, the sixth-lowest CPOE, and the third-lowest success rate per dropback.
