Week 15 Quarterbacks

QB Notes: Coming off one of the best fantasy efficiency by a quarterback since record-keeping started, Josh Allen now welcomes the best recreation complete of the season towards a weak cross protection. … Jayden Daniels went into the Commanders’ bye along with his two highest fantasy level outputs of the season. He comes out going through a Saints squad that has misplaced its will to stay. Healthy and rested, Daniels is locked and loaded for the pretend playoffs. … The Giants are good at pressuring the quarterback however not a lot else. Lamar Jackson has remained one of many league’s greatest QBs at avoiding sacks. With the Ravens towering 16-point favorites towards the G-Men, Jackson’s solely concern is that New York is just too simply bulldozed on the bottom. … Joe Burrow leads the league in passing and touchdowns. The Titans hemorrhage QB fantasy factors regardless of allowing the fewest aerial yards. The Bengals’ protection is dangerous sufficient that this one is unlikely to finish early, permitting Burrow to get his numbers. … At dwelling for an additional monstrous recreation and crew complete, Jared Goff might be going through a Bills protection that simply bought picked aside by Matthew Stafford. The upside isn’t fairly there. Goff’s baseline is simply so excessive in these conditions (dome, dwelling, recreation complete).

Jalen Hurts has some issues on his arms, specifically an sad No. 1 wideout. Hurts stays get together to a few of the league’s lowest cross charges, although this week he initiatives to truly must throw vs. Pittsburgh’s robust protection. The actuality is, even when Hurts is caught in a rut as a passer, his dashing makes him unattainable to bench for the fantasy postseason. … Tua Tagovailoa leads the league in passing since returning in Week 8. He has an additional recreation on gamers like Joe Burrow, for example, however Tagovailoa has totally tailored to his new pitch-and-catch, level guard model. Speaking of Burrow, he’s the one different quarterback to throw for a minimum of 300 yards in three straight begins this season. Peaking on the proper time, Tagovailoa ought to determine this thorny Texans matchup. … Coming off one of the best begin of his profession, Sam Darnold is going through a Bears protection that regarded prefer it could possibly be taking up main water after firing defensive play-caller Matt Eberflus. It helps that Darnold already diced up this D two weeks in the past. Typically a flooring play, Darnold has continued to lift his ceiling.

Jayden Daniels, unsurprisingly, leads the league in scrambles. No. 2? Brock Purdy. Everything Jimmy G just isn’t, Purdy is prepared to depart the pocket to make performs. That trait goes to be wanted greater than ever with the 49ers’ backfield someway down yet one more runner. Facing a Rams protection that simply surrendered the literal greatest QB efficiency of all time, Purdy sneaks inside the highest 12 for the quarterfinals. … The bye got here on the mistaken time for Bo Nix, who was taking part in his greatest soccer. He should take care of a Colts cross protection that was additionally peaking heading into the off week. Suddenly letting it rip as his rush makes an attempt have declined, Nix might be nonetheless a bit riskier than his current scorching streak would counsel, however he has sufficient paths to ceiling that we rank him inside the highest 12. … The closest factor we now have to a “wealthy man’s Jameis Winston” this season, Baker Mayfield continues to throw first, assume later. The Chargers are a poor Week 14 matchup, one that may most likely have Mayfield counting on his flooring somewhat than ceiling. Thankfully, the previous has been secure, with Mayfield hardly ever seeing the underside fall out.

After dashing for 50-plus yards 4 instances in his first seven begins, Kyler Murray has carried out so zero instances in his previous six. That makes his passing struggles more durable to swallow, although the Patriots’ “everything-funnel” protection does profile as one thing of a Week 15 get-right spot. The Murray rug pulls have been too frequent. Hopefully he’s lastly able to spike every week when it issues most. … Matthew Stafford is fourth in passing since he bought his top-two wideouts again seven weeks in the past. He’s tied for second in passing scores in that timespan. Awesome, underrated stuff, although short-week Thursday evening opponent San Francisco is a run funnel. Stafford continues to be unlikely to sabotage your week if compelled to start out him in a one-QB league. … Only Anthony Richardson has a better common supposed air yards than Jameis Winston. Of course, solely Ant, Kirk Cousins and Jordan Love have a better interception share. Winston is averaging 43 makes an attempt as starter and struggling to finish 60 % of his passes. Rarely has a participant gone this based on plan. If you’ll be able to abdomen the draw back, Winston is a premier playoff streamer due to his aggressive methods.

If Ladd McConkey (knee, shoulder) can get wholesome, Justin Herbert might be on the QB1 borderline for a Bucs smash spot. … The Packers are taking their lack of passing to shocking new depths. They had a -6 cross charge over anticipated for Week 14 towards the Lions though that’s the precise reverse manner you normally method Detroit. It got here in Green Bay’s first loss in over a month, additionally to the Lions. We wish to assume issues will change towards the Seahawks, however Seattle is stingy by means of the air and getting stingier. Jordan Love is at all times able to spiking every week, however it’s not the almost certainly consequence for the fantasy quarters. … Patrick Mahomes’ mid-season momentum didn’t actually go wherever. He’s had back-to-back middling begins. If you’re caught beginning him, you’ll be able to fall again on the Browns being an honest matchup with the Chiefs having an honest implied crew complete. … Anthony Richardson’s common supposed air yards are 12.9, placing him 3.4 yards forward of each different quarterback. Couple that along with his elevated dashing since getting back from his benching, and you’ve got a QB able to sonic booms amidst the busts. The Broncos are a tricky matchup, however Richardson is an apparent place to look if you’re looking for upside above all else.
