QB Sleepers

Kirk Cousins-Washington Redskins: Cousins matched Cam’s five touchdowns in the Redskins win over Buffalo.  He finished with 319 yards and four passing touchdowns while adding a touchdown on the ground and totaling 11 yards on his three rushes.  Cousins and the Redskins are in a great place to win the NFC East after their 35-25 win over Buffalo.

Teddy Bridgewater-Minnesota Vikings: Bridgewater was the other member of the five-touchdown club on Sunday throwing for four touchdowns and adding a fifth on the ground just like Cousins.  He threw for fewer yards than Cousins-finishing with 231-but he ran for 17 yards and his touchdown to cap the Vikings big 38-17 win over Chicago.

Tyrod Taylor-Buffalo Bills: The Bills were down big to the Redskins early on and Taylor threw a bunch as he tried to get his team back in the game.  He finished with 235 yards and a pair of touchdowns while adding 79 yards on the ground and successfully converting a two-point conversion.

Jimmy Clausen-Baltimore Ravens: The ultimate sleeper at QB this week was Jimmy Clausen who made his second start for the Ravens and had a solid week with a pair of touchdown passes to go with 281 yards.  He threw a pair of picks but also added 30 yards on the ground.
