Play 'Em
1. Baker Mayfield vs Carolina Panthers
Last week Mayfield did not play well as he throw 4 interceptions verses the Houston Texans. This week he should have a better game as he faces a Panthers defense that just allowed Jameis Winston to have his best game of the season. The Panthers have given up an average of 40.46 points per game to opposing QBs this season. They are the 27th ranked defense at defending the QB position.
2. Dak Prescott vs Philadelphia Eagles
As of late Prescott has been playing extremely well as the Cowboys have opened up the offense some. The main thing that has helped Prescott play so well is the fact that he has run the ball like he did in his rookie season. The Eagles have given up an average of 38.3 points per game to opposing QBs this season. They are the 21st ranked defense at defending the QB position.
Bench 'Em
1.Marcus Mariota vs Jacksonville Jaguars
This season Mariota has been really inconsistent as he is in an offense that is not a pass heavy one but a run heavy offense. On a short week going against a Jags defense that just shutout the Colts is not a good combination for the first week of the fantasy playoffs. The Jaguars have given up an average of 32.45 points per game to opposing QBs this season. They are the 4th ranked defense at defending the QB position.
2.Jared Goff @ Chicago Bears
Last week Goff had a OK game in which he faced a Lions defense that is a middle of the pack defense. This week he faces a Bears defense that is a much better defense than the Lions as they have a really good defensive backfield. The Bears have given up an average of 32.73 points per game to opposing QBs this season. They are the 6th ranked defense at defending the QB position.
