From the episode

Darnold has the 49ers, so if they're ever going to be stifled in a big divisional game against a good defense, this might be it...next week Sam Darnold gets the Denver Broncos and then the Kansas City Chiefs, so I don't like the matchups. You could probably drop Darnold.

STACKED’s take

NeutralMatchup

Darnold's 49ers matchup is tough; Denver and KC follow, making him droppable after Week 5.

Express Delivery has Sam Darnold ranked very close to Aaron Rodgers but slightly behind for Week 5. Darnold faces the 49ers in a big divisional game against a good defense, which could stifle his production. Looking ahead, Darnold's matchups deteriorate significantly: Denver Broncos in Week 6 and Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7, making him a candidate to drop after this week. However, Darnold has a better receiving option in JSN compared to Rodgers' options.
