Shough's QB6 finish came via volume; Baltimore's defense may limit Week 2 upside.
Shough finished Week 1 as QB6 in fantasy with 410 passing yards and three passing touchdowns (two interceptions) despite a poor first half against Detroit. He led the NFL with 56 passing attempts. Efficiency metrics were mixed: 16th in yards per attempt, 17th in passing success rate, 26th in highly accurate throw rate, and third in hero throw rate. Week 2 against Baltimore's stronger pass defense (seventh-fewest yards per attempt allowed, sixth-lowest passer rating, seventh-lowest passing success rate, 11th-best pressure rate) may limit volume unless the Saints fall behind early.

Shough faces Ravens' blitz-heavy defense; quick-game concepts will be critical.
Shough will likely have to throw to keep the Saints' hopes alive against the Ravens, who rushed with four and used zone coverage on 76.5% of Daniel Jones' dropbacks in Week 1. The source notes that 10 of Baltimore's 14 pressures came in less than 2.5 seconds, suggesting Shough will need to get the ball out quickly to take advantage of his personnel.
Shough's elite offensive pace and pass-first scheme support QB2 consideration despite Ravens matchup.
Shough was solid in the Saints' shootout loss to the Lions despite not looking particularly great. The Saints are running the fastest offense in the NFL by both total pace and neutral-situation pace, and were fifth in pass rate over expected. The combo of speed and pass-first play-calling should keep him near the top of the QB2 mix despite a tough Ravens matchup.
Saints' elite pace and pass rate should keep Shough in QB2 mix despite Ravens matchup.
Shough was solid in the Saints' shootout loss to the Lions despite not looking particularly great. The Saints offense is fantasy-friendly: Kellen Moore dialed up the fastest offense in the NFL by both total pace and pace in neutral situations, and the Saints were fifth in pass rate over expected. Despite a tough Ravens matchup this week, the combo of speed and pass-first play-calling should keep him near the top of the QB2 mix.

In Week 1, he was 8-for-10 passing for 219 yards on passes of 15+ air yards, the most such attempts by a New Orleans Saints QB since Drew Brees in Week 11 of 2018. However, the source notes that the Baltimore Ravens held Indianapolis Colts QB Daniel Jones to 1-of-4 passing for 23 yards on such attempts in Week 1, suggesting caution about Shough's deep-ball success translating against Baltimore.
Weaver sees sky-high ceiling for Shough, compares him to Josh Allen's athleticism.
Ravens DC Anthony Weaver believes the "sky's the limit" for Saints QB Tyler Shough, comparing him to Josh Allen as a "poor-man's Josh Allen" with elite arm talent and athleticism. Weaver noted Shough's ability to scramble and create extended plays, particularly in the red zone, and praised his underrated athleticism despite the backhanded nature of the comparison. Weaver was impressed with Shough as a rookie when Miami played the Saints late last season.
Shough's 410-yard, 3-TD debut shows upside but turnovers are Week 2 concern.
Shough delivered an impressive Week 1 performance, throwing for 410 yards and three touchdowns despite committing three turnovers in his first start of the season. The source highlights that throwing for over 400 yards was impressive given the Saints fell into a 21-0 hole early, and notes the key question for Week 2 is whether Shough can build on this performance while eliminating costly mistakes against a talented Ravens defense.

Delivered an impressive Week 1 performance throwing for 410 yards and three touchdowns in his first start of the season despite falling behind 21-0 early; the source notes his ability to create explosive plays and believes he can build on this performance, though he must eliminate costly mistakes (three turnovers) against a talented Baltimore defense to avoid playing from behind again.
Shough's extreme second-half surge masks poor early play; Ravens matchup less favorable than Week 1.
Shough's Week 1 performance was extremely split: 18-of-28, 179 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs, 55.0 rating through three quarters; then 17-of-23, 231 yards, 2 TDs, 134.5 rating in the fourth quarter and overtime. His fourth-quarter passing yards (231) were the second-most in the entire 2025 season behind Josh Allen's 251 yards. The turnaround tracked with improved blitz handling (2-of-7, 17 yards, 1 INT, 1 sack-fumble in first half vs. 8-of-11, 79 yards, 3 TDs after) and downfield aggression (11-of-16, 261 yards, 1 TD on 10+ air yards, the most such yards by a Saints QB since Drew Brees in Week 6, 2016). However, the source notes Shough can be added as a streamer but the Ravens on the road aren't the same smash spot as Detroit, and his poor first-half performance raises his bust level considerably.
