Scoring Zone's Take

Actionable take: you should be starting Stafford with confidence in all standard and most superflex formats this week and going forward while he's riding this touchdown pace. If you have him rostered, there's no reason to consider sitting him unless you're facing an obvious bye-week or injury-report red flag that isn't indicated here. If you don't have him and he's somehow available in a shallow or two-QB league, this is the moment to add him — leading the league in passing touchdowns is the kind of counting-stat signal that tends to draw attention and could make him a trade target for QB-needy squads, so you might also explore buy-low or sell-high scenarios depending on your roster construction.

Confidence here is high on the raw fact — both sources agree he's No. 1 in passing touchdowns — but keep in mind this is a season-long production note rather than a specific injury or role change. There's no indication of any negative health or role news attached to this story, so treat it as a pure efficiency/usage boost. Ride the hot streak and keep him firmly entrenched as a weekly starter.

For the second time in his career, Matthew Stafford has reached No. 1.
