Fantasy Football power rankings, Week 7: Patrick Mahomes is dominant
By Dylan Broady
Quarterbacks
Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs, 158.10
Mahomes has been on fire in his 2018 campaign. In his first season as a starting quarterback he has lived up to all the hype and then some, carrying this high-powered Chiefs offense each and every week. Through six games Mahomes has amassed 1,865 passing yards, 18 passing touchdowns and only four interceptions, while adding 75 rushing yards and two more scores.
Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons, 150.80
Matt Ryan has returned to his MVP form throwing for a total of 1,955 passing yards, 14 passing touchdowns and just two interceptions, while adding 66 rushing yards and two touchdowns. A lot of people didn’t know what to expect out of Ryan after coming off a down year in 2017, but he seems to have put that all behind him as he ranks third-overall in fantasy points per game.
Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers, 132.98
Rodgers and the Packers has a thrilling come-from-behind victory against the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. Rodgers has been astounding through six games amassing a total of 1,997 passing yards and 12 touchdowns and one interception with 111 rushing yards. After the Week 7 bye Rodgers and the Pack get a high-profile matchup with the Los Angeles Rams.
Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers, 129.02
Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers have had a very dramatic start to their season. The Steelers stirring victory in Cincinnati in Week 6 should put this team on the right track moving forward. Roethlisberger has racked up 2,033 passing yards and 12 passing touchdowns while adding 38 rushing yards and one score.
Kirk Cousins, Minnesota Vikings, 126.34
Cousins has made the Minnesota Vikings a real contender going forward. With 1,921 passing yards, 12 passing touchdowns, on only three interceptions, Cousins has been worth all the money paid to him this offseason. Much can be said about this Vikings team dripping with talent, and so Super Bowl or bust should be the mindset in their locker room.
