Burrow's quiet Week 1 makes him a fade against Houston's elite defense.

Burrow had a quiet Week 1 fantasy performance with 14.2 PPR points (71.4% completion, 254 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT) against Tampa Bay despite expectations for the Bengals' passing attack to thrive; only 14.1% of his fantasy production came on the ground versus 3.1% in 2025. Against Houston's top-tier defense (14.1 fantasy points per game allowed to QBs, fourth-fewest in NFL), the source recommends considering Baker Mayfield or Jaxson Dart over Burrow in Week 2.
