QB Sleepers

Josh McCown-Cleveland Browns: The Browns fell just short of getting a big road win, but it wasn’t because McCown didn’t play well in San Diego. Macon threw for 356 yards and a pair of touchdowns this week while adding a successful two-point conversion.  McCown has multiple TDs and over 340 yards in each of the last two weeks, so he has played well since taking back over for Johnny Manziel.

Kirk Cousins-Washington Redskins: The Redskins got a thrilling NFC East win with a las second touchdown against the Eagles.  Cousins threw for 290 yards and a touchdown while adding a second touchdown on the ground.  Cousins and the Redskins are now a very respectable 2-2 in the middle of a muddled NFC East race.

Nick Foles-St. Louis Rams: The Rams got one of the most surprising wins of the week as they knocked off the previously unbeaten Cardinals in Arizona.  Foles threw for three touchdowns in St. Louis’s road win while completing 16 of his 24 passes for 171 yards.

Blake Bortles-Jacksonville Jaguars: The Jags couldn’t quite knock off the Colts even without Andrew Luck although they did force overtime.  Bortles threw for 298 yards against Indy’s banged up secondary throwing for a touchdown and added 31 yards on the ground.
