QB Advice for Week 8
Hello everyone. This will be a quick Fantasy Football post about QB streams for Week 8. Lets get to it. First up is the Bears QB Mitchell Trubisky. Trubisky reminds me of Blake Bortles from a few seasons ago...he wasn't winning games, but he was racking up fantasy point. In fact, two years ago, Bortles won many teams the championship with his late season emergence. I feel the same for Trubisky. He makes some sloppy plays, but he still manages to find ways to rack up those points. He's scored 55, 32 and 33 Fantasy points in his past three outings against Tampa Bay, Miami and New England, and he's getting it done in a variety of ways. This week he gets the Jets. The Jets have been pretty good to the QB's the last month or so, allowing over 20 points to each of those QBs. Trubisky should continue this trend. I would confidently plug him in to stream this week.
Next up is a Bust potential. This one is tough because I own him in a few leagues, but I will be benching Russel Wilson this week of the Seahawks. He will be going up against the Lion's Defense that has not been too generous to opposing QBs. QBs are averaging just under 20 points against the Lion's D. For this reason, I would rather stream a QB for week 8 like Trubrisky. Wilson also seems to be running the ball a lot less this season. He racked up a good amount of his fantasy points from running the ball in the past. That was always a great appeal to Wilson. Even if he didn't throw for a lot of yards or touchdowns, he would get it done on the ground. This year he is straying away from that, and with the Lion's D, I would sit Wilson for Week 8.
The next QB for the Sit category is Wentz from the Eagles. Wentz has been solid since his return from injury, but this week he will be traveling to London and going up against the Jags D. Although the Jags D has not looked as solid as last season, they are still a top defense in the NFL. Only 2 QBs have passed 20 points against them this year...Tom Brady and Dak Prescott. If you have other options to stream this week, it may be worth checking out, otherwise, I think you will be disappointed with Wentz's numbers this week.
Well that is all for now. We are almost at the halfway point of the season. Amazing how fast it goes by. Thanks for reading and I will see you again soon.
Imo trubisky is the new version of Ryan tannehill except he doesn't mind trying to throw deep even though he is terrible at it haha

That’s a good comparison. I’ll be starting him in one of my leagues this week. Let’s see If it pays off
