Waivers Week 7

[wildturkey]

Need a fill in QB for Hurts this week. Options I'm looking at

Geno Smith vs Chargers
Marcus Mariota vs Bengals
Jimmy G vs KC

 

[TREFF]

I say Marriota, the floor with rushing yardage is safer than the others

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Geno Smith...I guess

 

[TKOSpikes]

I’ll round it out with a vote for Jimmy G.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

Mariota - Bengals seem to be scoring and giving up a lot of pts every week

Checking how QBs do against teams I found this:

Fantasy Points Against | NFL Fantasy

View the number of fantasy points each NFL team allows to each position, review past performances at the NFL and more.

fantasy.nfl.com

So Chiefs have given up the most points against other QBs @ 21.92, but they have played against Murray, Herbert, Brady and Allen which is sort of a killers row, Chargers have given up 16.67, and the Bengals have actually played tough against QBs @ 11.35.

Bengals played Trubs, C. Rush, Flacco, TeddyB, Lamar, and Dalton.

Only 2 of which were starting opening week, one being Trubs, who everyone knew wasn't holding the job.

Unless you meant tough as in feisty grinders

I admit I didn't check out which QBs the Bengals played against, I just saw the results. However Mariota is about on their level IMO so the results should be similar?

 

[femurov]

Geno?

Very well could be. I think it was Lamar's least points of the year, so, entirely possible

I waivered for Matt Ryan... makes me feel sick to my stomach.

My QB history in 1 of my money leagues this year:

wk1: Trey Lance - 11.6pts
wk2: Matt Stafford - 21.6pts
wk3: Matt Stafford - 12.65pts
wk4: Tua Tagovailoa - 3.5pts
wk5: Jared Goff - 8.15pts
wk6: Matt Stafford - 14.35pts

 

[ill]

starting the Broncos D...but might swap them out.

you take Jimmy G this week.
KC is gonna force him to play QB.
The other two guys might not reach 20 completions.
Jimmy G will be playing from behind.
Last week he played from behind & passed it 41 times. (just shy of 300 yards)
typically if you think the niners will play with a lead you stay the hell away from Jimmy G.

Matt Ryan typically will always get you consistent points. he is the 9th top scoring QB in my league. And that is with him playing like Shit.
BTW he killed it last week fantasy wise. (top scoring QB)
Now be weary. You will be pretty scared for about 2.5 quarters as he gets you next to nothing in points & then bam. Scores you all your points late 3rd qtr on.
He used to drive me nuts on my team. (not this year) Thinking my QB is getting his ass kicked & then by the 4th qtr he outscored mahomes. LOL

9th??? What sort of scoring system do you use lol. He's 17th in my league, and we are somewhat close to default standard settings.

Matt Ryan has always been a disappointment to me. Outside of 2016 season, he has always underwhelmed. His floor is scary low, as evidence of his 3.5pt outing in week 2 against the Jags. He has 8 TDs & 7 INTs.

we get points on completions as well

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

Ah that does help a lot. In my league he is being outscored by Daniel Jones, Russ Wilson & Marcus Mariota lol

 

[TKOSpikes]

I think Ryan is leading the league in pass attempts. Odds for that coming into the season were probably quite high.

losing Taylor = more passing

wonder if it continues when Taylor gets healthy
and more importantly, what does Taylor have to do to get the usage Deon Jackson gets?!?!?!?
