Quarterback

Justin Herbert (TRUST): Herbert is cooking out of the gates this season, posting top-10 scoring weeks with 20 or more fantasy points in all three games this season.

He is coming off completing 40-of-47 passes (85.1%) for 405 yards and three touchdowns on Sunday, the highest completion rate for any quarterback to ever throw the football 45 or more times.

Herbert draws another fantastic matchup this week against a Las Vegas defense that is allowing a 74.8% completion rate (30th), a 7.1% touchdown rate (30th), and 0.560 passing points per attempt (29th).

The Raiders have allowed multiple passing touchdowns in every game this season, including the highest-scoring game Kenny Pickett (QB13) had this season a week ago.
