L.A. Chargers @ Cleveland
Team Totals: Chargers 22.5, Browns 21
As HC Jim Harbaugh and OC Greg Roman have opened up the Chargers’ offense with Justin Herbert further removed from his foot injury, Herbert has checked in as fantasy’s QB11 in three games since L.A.’s Week 5 bye. Yet Herbert has still reached 15 FF points in just one of seven starts, while Sunday’s cross-country trip to encounter a stout Cleveland defense in an early-slate game is unideal. Browns DC Jim Schwartz’s unit has permitted the NFL’s second-lowest completion rate (59.1%) and ranks top eight in sacks (21). I see this as a low-scoring affair. … The Chargers have removed all restrictions from previously oft-injured J.K. Dobbins, who logged a year-high 82% snap rate in Week 8’s drubbing of New Orleans and is averaging 19.7 touches over his last six appearances. Rookie Kimani Vidal has settled in as the Bolts’ No. 2 back but is hardly seeing work. This is a homecoming game for Dobbins, who played his college ball at Ohio State. I’m dialing up Dobbins as a low-end RB1 starter.
