WEEK 8

QB’s

Top Shelf

Matt Ryan-  I always like Matty Ice at home, especially after putting up a stinker last week against The Titans.  He has a tasty matchup this week as well with The Bucs.  Last week The Bucs secondary gave up 317 yards and 3 TD’s to Kirk Cousins.  Tampa D actually only gives up 220 yards per game against opposing QB’s BUT they have given up 15 passing TD’s so far.  Vegas says The Falcons score 28 points in this one, and I agree.  Julio is primed for a monster this week.  Devonta Freeman might have a field day with these guys as well, just cross your fingers and hope he gets in the end zone from a few dump off passes from Ryan. 

 

Mid Range

Phil Rivers-  I’m not sure if Rivers is actually going to be as highly owned as he should be this week because Carson Palmer didn’t light up this Ravens Secondary Monday Night.  Regardless, Rivers is a great play and Baltimore’s Secondary is pure garbage.  There is a high Over Under in this game and it could be a real shootout.  The other reason I like Rivers is the emergence of Woodhead the past couple of games.  Melvin Gordon is NOT getting the job done, and Woodhead is going to get 8-12 balls thrown his way.  Rivers probability of getting touchdowns is huge in this game, and it wouldn’t shock me if he was the Top Scoring QB of Week 8.  I like pairing him with a cheap Malcolm Floyd as well for a sneaky mini stack. 

 

Bottom of the Barrel 

Ryan Fitzpatrick-  Really only for GPP’s.  If you want to get Lev Bell and Julio Jones in your lineup this week, you need a lottery ticket at QB.  Fitzpatrick has a good matchup against The Raiders this week.   Raiders have a terrible pass defense but a pretty good run defense believe it or not.  Rodgers has a brutal matchup, as does Luck.  Palmer didn’t look spectacular last week, I think Carolina attacks with Stewart, Brees hasn’t done anything this year, we don’t know how healthy Big Ben is, and Eli can always throw 4 interceptions.  Now that Brady isn’t an option, there isn’t really a no brainer, “Slam Dunk” QB going this week.  Fitzpatrick is cheap, and it seems like every year he has ONE outstanding game, maybe this is it?  Watch Decker’s status, and if he is a no-go, Brandon Marshall becomes a MUST START for me.  I will be ballsy and say Fitzpatrick throws 289 yards, 3 TD’s and 1 INT.  It’s not out of the question, you have to get courageous to win one of these HUGE tourneys, maybe The Amish Assassin is the answer…………..
