Cleveland @ Baltimore
Team Totals: Ravens 22, Browns 16
Coming off arguably his sharpest performance in 11 starts as a Brown, Deshaun Watson encounters an impossible road matchup at Baltimore, which he’ll play without LT Jedrick Wills (MCL, I.R.). The Ravens lead the NFL in sacks (35) and are yielding a league-low 4.6 yards per pass attempt. In what profiles as a low-scoring affair, I’m going right back to fading Watson outside of low-end two-QB-league scenarios. … The Browns cut their backfield from a three- to two-man committee in Week 9’s victory. Jerome Ford resumed lead-back duties with 25 touches on a 64% snap rate over Kareem Hunt’s 14 touches and 29% playing-time clip against Arizona. Pierre Strong (4, 7%) was all but eliminated from the pecking order. Baltimore is yielding the NFL’s ninth-fewest fantasy points to running backs with just three all-purpose TDs allowed to the position through nine games. Ford is an unsafe RB2 option. Hunt is a desperate flex.
Watson’s 2023 targets: Amari Cooper 30; Elijah Moore 28; David Njoku 17; Ford 15; Marquise Goodwin 7; Hunt and Jordan Akins 5. … Amari enters Week 10 ranked No. 18 in the NFL in yards per route run, an impressive feat considering Cleveland’s errant quarterback play. Per Fantasy Points’ Jacob Gibbs, Cooper is the NFL’s only player to have commanded 100+ Air Yards in every 2023 game.
