It's about time for Week 2 of the NFL playoffs, and I'm pretty excited for every game on the schedule. Today's FFT Newsletter is going to feature a recap of the quarterback position for 2020, but first, here's a few things I'll be keeping an eye out for in each of the Divisional Round playoff games:

• Rams-Packers: Do the Rams continue to use Cam Akers as an every-down back? Specifically, do they use him in the passing game more? He ran the ball 28 times last week and has 22.8 carries per game over the last five, but I'd like to see more than two or so targets every week. We know Sean McVay has used his running backs plenty in the passing game in the past, and if Akers can get that Todd Gurley role, he'll probably belong in the second round for 2021. 
• Ravens-Bills: Do the Ravens use J.K. Dobbins as an every-down back at any point? There's going to be a lot of excitement for Dobbins next draft season, but I'm pretty lukewarm on him given his usage. He topped 60% of the snaps just three times this season, and was at 53% or fewer in each of his past four games. In the 20-13 win over the Titans last week, Dobbins had just nine carries; Gus Edwards had eight. As good as Dobbins is, and as good as this Ravens rushing attack is, I'm going to view him as a low-end RB2 unless I see more of a commitment to him. 
• Browns-Chiefs: Do the Chiefs lean on Clyde Edwards-Helaire if he's healthy? It seems like Edwards-Helaire will be back out there after sitting out three weeks with his ankle and hip injuries, and I want to see him in the 60-70% snap share range. If the Chiefs believe in him and view him as their No. 1 RB of the future, the playoffs will be where they prove it -- Damien Williams played at least 75% of the snaps in each game in the 2018 and 2019 playoffs. 
• Buccaneers-Saints: Will Leonard Fournette get another opportunity to be a lead back? Coincidentally, this is also the biggest question facing Fournette heading into the offseason. His stock has taken quite a hit while relegated to backup status behind Ronald Jones, but he rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown and added 39 yards on four catches last week. He's probably moving on as a free agent, but if Ronald Jones' quad injury keeps him out this week, Fournette will have another opportunity to help his stock for 2021. 

For more on this weekend's games, check out Jamey Eisenberg's Divisional Round preview here. We'll have a recap of the weekend's games on Monday's episode of Fantasy Football Today and Jamey Eisenberg will have a stock watch column Monday as well, while I'll have winners and losers for Monday's newsletter, so keep an eye out for all of that. Plus, next week, we'll be reflecting on the RB and WR position on the podcast, breaking down our first .5 PPR mock draft for 2021, and previewing the conference championship matchups. 

On Thursday's podcast, Jamey and Dave Richard reflected on the state of the QB position coming out of 2020, and you should give that a listen here -- and make sure you subscribe if you haven't for some reason. The rest of today's newsletter will be devoted to three things to know about the QB position in 2020 and how they might impact things moving forward. It was a great year for the position. Here's how it happened. 

The QB position has never been more productive than it was in 2020. While it's true that offense was up around the NFL generally -- we actually saw an NFL record in points per game in 2020 -- it was especially true at QB. The top 12 at the position scored 4,987 points combined in six-point-per-pass-TD leagues, 397 more than any other season over the last 10 -- I didn't bother going back further than that, because the top 10 seasons in passing yards in NFL history have all come over the last 10. 

What's interesting is, while 2020 was a historic season for Fantasy quarterbacks, it wasn't just because of passing. Of the 90 QB seasons with at least 400 rushing yards going back to 1970, eight happened in 2020. Which brings us to the first big point about the QB position in 2020 you need to know about ...

Eight QBs rushed for at least 400 yards, and that doesn't include Jalen Hurts, who averaged 68 yards per game in his four starts. The most QBs with at least 400 rushing yards in a season before 2020 was six, so this was a pretty big outlier. Running effectively is not a guarantee that you'll be a good Fantasy QB -- Cam Newton and Daniel Jones averaged just 17.6 and 14.4 points per game despite topping that 400-yard mark -- but it goes a long way. Five of the top 10 in QB scoring met that threshold, and Russell Wilson is the only one over the age of 30. And this year's incoming rookie QB class, led by guys like Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence , should only hasten the takeover of the running QB. The gap between the haves and the have-nots could be even wider in the future. 

Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers were still great and Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger were mostly pretty good, but this is increasingly becoming a young man's position again. Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Deshaun Watson, Kyler Murray, Justin Herbert, and Lamar Jackson were all still playing on their rookie contracts in 2020 when they finished as top-10 Fantasy QBs; Dak Prescott and Hurts were both elite Fantasy options when healthy, too, and Joe Burrow looked pretty great before his injury. This is related to the rushing part, obviously, but it's still worth pointing out how bright the future looks. Of my top 12 for 2021, Rodgers, Wilson, Hill, and Ryan Tannehill are the only players over the age of 30. 

Dave Richard went through every impending free agent and potential cap casualty for this offseason last week, and it's a valuable resource for those of you playing in Dynasty or Keeper leagues, so go ahead and bookmark that. For QB, here's all of the impending free agents: 

• Dak Prescott, 28
• Cam Newton, 32
• Philip Rivers, 39
• Ryan Fitzpatrick, 38 
• Jameis Winston, 27 
• Mitchell Trubisky, 27
• Andy Dalton, 33 
• Nick Mullens, 26 (restricted)
• Others: Jacoby Brissett, 28; Tyrod Taylor, 32; C.J. Beathard, 27; Brandon Allen, 29; Mike Glennon, 31 

That's four starters and three others who started a significant number of games for their team in 2020. Plus, Winston could very well end up a starter in any number of different places in 2021. We could be looking at a huge amount of turnover at QB this offseason without even getting into the rookies -- CBS Sports draft analyst Chris Trapasso has four going in the first round of his latest mock draft here. Plus, there's the rumors about Carson Wentz and Matthew Stafford getting traded, plus potential cap casualties like Jimmy Garoppolo and Derek Carr. With young QBs hitting the ground running like never, it seems like there's less appetite for sticking with a just-good-enough QB in today's NFL. There's always the risk that turnover leads to growing pains next season, but it can also lead to unexpected values, so we'll take it.
