Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold Shine in Fantasy Football Week 6

Baker Mayfield had a strong performance against the San Francisco 49ers, throwing for 256 yards with only one sack and no interceptions. Emeka Egbuka was sidelined due to a hamstring injury, while Bucky Irving, Mike Evans, and Chris Godwin were also absent. Mayfield connected well with backup receivers Kameron and Tez Johnson, showcasing his skills as an MVP contender. His crucial scramble for a first down on 3rd-and-14 was a standout moment in the game.

The 49ers faced challenges with injuries, including Jauan Jennings being limited. Despite a solid passing game by Mac Jones, who threw for 347 yards, the team struggled to score due to interceptions and sacks. The lack of a strong running game with Christian McCaffrey further hindered their performance.

In the game between Cincinnati and Green Bay, the Bengals opted for a methodical passing approach with Joe Flacco. The Packers heavily targeted Romeo Doubs, but the team's reliance on him over other receivers like TE Tucker Kraft could be a potential issue. Questions arise about Jordan Love's effectiveness as a quarterback, despite impressive stats.

The matchup between Tennessee and Las Vegas did not yield significant takeaways. Calvin Ridley's early injury impacted the game.
