Taylor led the Bills to a win with 211 passing yards and three touchdowns. He added 28 rushing yards and a touchdown to his day. It was the second week that Taylor overcame a defense with plenty of momentum. He stalled the Kansas City Chiefs' defense in Week 12.
The Chiefs were heating up heading into the week, but Taylor threw for 291 yards and three touchdowns despite a loss. The Texans were coming off of four games allowing just one passing touchdown. Taylor was able to overcome the Texans' recent resurgence. He'll have much easier matchups down the stretch, beginning with the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14.
Fantasy impact: Taylor is building momentum and has done so against two tough defenses in back-to-back weeks. With Philadelphia, Washington, and the Dallas Cowboys ahead of him, Taylor is back in the QB1 conversation during most fantasy playoffs. He's owned in just 36 percent of Yahoo! leagues as of Monday morning. He should be owned in all formats.
