Sam Darnold had been atop the oddsboard for weeks, but after the Vikings dropped to 5-1 with a loss to Detroit in Week 7, Darnold drifted from +200 two weeks ago to +1600 this week.
The new favorite is Kirk Cousins, even though his Falcons lost 34-14 at home to Seattle in Week 7.
Cousins is fourth in the NFL in passing yards (1,840) and tied for seventh in touchdown passes (10). He missed a majority of last season with a torn Achilles.
Also charging up the board is Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins, who was at +1000 on Oct. 9, and now sits second at +330. He’s third in the league in rushing yards (478), after also missing most of last season with a torn Achilles.
Lastly, Cincy’s Joe Burrow is now third on the board, after sitting at +1200 two weeks ago. Burrow missed the conclusion of last season with a wrist injury.
The Bengals have won three of their last four, and Burrow has 1,759 passing yards (sixth), 14 TDs (fourth) and only two picks on the season.
