Matt Stafford. Should I be worried?

[Buftex]

So, I have Matt Stafford as my #1 QB.  My #2 QB is Jamies Winston, who is suspended through week 3...he may not even getting his starting job back, if Fitzmagic continues!  Stafford looked awful last night...is it an aberration, or should I be worried?  One more interception, and I would have lost my week 1 fantasy game...

 

Which of these QB's would you pick up, if you had to:

 

Sam Darnold

Ryan Fitzpatrick

Joe Flacco

Case Keenum

Eli Manning

Ryan Tannehill

Tyrod Taylor

For one game? Taylor should be trailing against the Saints and seeing some prevent D?  A longer term solution? Keenum. Denver has plenty of weapons and you wouldn’t be worried about him getting benched. Mayfield hype will creep up on Taylor unless they start winning.

I was thinking more long term, just in case Stafford is at the end...he looked really confused last night.  Maybe concussion?  Maybe just hitting the wall?  I was leaning toward Keenum, Manning or Tannehill, because, as you point out, I feel they are the most secure in their jobs...though I don't particularly like any of them.

From that list, I think Flacco has the most season-long potential.  Still think Stafford will bounce back, at least fantasy-wise.

I picked up Golladay he looks like he could be a force and the Lions will need to pass a bunch. If Stafford starts Sunday I think you need to ride with him against the 9ers. He should bounce back.

I had Stafford a few years ago and remember him being an inconsistent fantasy player and i gave up on him mid-season. I think he will certainly play better than he did on Monday night, and without a decent running game he should be throwing it a ton.

I ended up with Flacco...lost out on Fitz and Keenum on the waiver wire.

I’d still stay with Stafford again this week, garbage time fantasy points should be the theme again for him.

I picked up Stafford this week... Had Jimmy G and despite the good matchup I just haven't liked what I've seen from Jimmy so far. Stafford is gonna shake the rust off that deep ball and they are gonna be passing A LOT.

Staff is my QB as well, I hope the running game last night was a fluke. His garbage time yardage is an important component of my team.

Heh. I hope more that the defense plays poorly. I thought he'd be slinging it all night this past week. 

 

Maybe Josh Allen becomes a fantasy relevant start?

I would choose Joe Flacco:)
