Best Matchups of Week 7: Quarterback, Carson Palmer, Arizona Cardinals, Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins, Drew Brees, New Orleans Saints, Philip Rivers, Chargers

Oct 23, 2015 02:50 PM EDT

Carson Palmer VS Baltimore Ravens: Palmer is one of the best fantasy quarterbacks in football and is going up against a team with literally no cornerbacks. Their starting cornerback is a guy who could not even make it on to the Texans roster. Palmer should have a field day against the Ravens, a team who has given up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks all season long.

Ryan Tannehill at Houston Texans/Blake Bortles at Buffalo Bills: Really this one is a toss-up, Bortles has been playing some amazing football as of late and his 13 touchdowns on the season show his crazy level of production plus it helps that he is playing against a team that has allowed the 8th most fantasy points to quarterbacks. While Tannehill is just hitting his mid-season stride as he faces a Texans defense that has given up the 7th most points to quarterbacks the season.

Drew Brees at Indianapolis Colts: The Colts have given up the 10th most fantasy points to quarterbacks and Brees is looking for his fifth 300 yard game of the season. Brees should not have trouble in a game that could become a shootout fairly easily.

Philip Rivers at Oakland Raiders: The Raiders have only allowed the 15th most points to quarterbacks in fantasy however Rivers is coming off one of the biggest games of his career where he threw for over 500 yards. The Raiders allow the second most passing yards in the league so it should be fairly easily for Rivers to pick this defense apart.
