Posted October 10, 20241 yr Last year I was convinced I needed either Hurts, Allen, or Mahomes to have a great team so I drafted Mahomes in the 3rd round. Cost me the chip. This year I held out for a QB and took Richardson. So the QB position has been a struggle. I ended up releasing him because he's always hurt and has only had one good game. So I am currently rostering Sam Darnold, who has been mostly solid for me, and Justin Fields (who I seem to have every year). Darnold is on bye this week. I don't even know if Fields is going to start. I've even read that he may start but get yanked for Wilson is he isn't great in the first half. Do I stream this week? I have some options. Cousins plays the Panthers. Caleb Williams has the Jags. I can even reacquire Richardson lol
October 10, 20241 yr I like Cal Williams vs. the Jags. Hard to trust either QB in Pittsburgh this week. I don't expect a large volume from Cousins this week vs. the Panthers and he doesn't run. So I'd avoid Fields, Wilson, or Cousins.
October 10, 20241 yr i'd go with cousins or caleb this week. then stick with darnold going forward. their offense is pretty sick.
October 10, 20241 yr I am in the exact same scenario with the same options. I traded Mahomes and I had Fields, Darnold and Cousins was available (I dropped him week 1 after drafting him as a safety option in case Mahomes stunk). I dropped Darnold to grab Cousins and I'm starting him. Fields I'll hold to see what happens with Wilson but he has huge upside

But I don't know how long he can keep the job with Russ Wilson behind him. I feel like he could be one bad loss away from being a bust. I tried to warn you about Cousins. He is really good in a shootout. Not so good dominating an inferior opponent with less volume. He has some better matchups coming up, so maybe he is looking up. But Darnold comes back after the bye, so he might be better to deploy long term.

October 17, 20241 yr Author Someone dropped Mayfield and I got him off waivers. I cant believe it. I think I can roll with Mayfield and Darnold for the rest of the season,

Russ looked 100% healthy and it looked like Tomlin made the right decision to start him. The job now belongs to Wilson.
October 23, 20241 yr Author Is MAyfield still going to be viable with no Godwin or Evans? I think I'm starting Darnold this week to be safe.
October 23, 20241 yr Yeah. I'd try another option over Mayfield this week. Some other options likely available: Bo Nix has Carolina. Russ Wilson vs. Giants. And Tua is attempting a comeback, start at your own risk.
October 25, 20241 yr I'm in QB streaming hell. Jameis Winston, Drake Maye, or Russell Wilson Right now I have Winston in the driver seat but thinking Wilson

I did not expect that. Saboteurs! Spoiler Good thing I didn’t listen to you fools
October 29, 20241 yr Author Mayfield seems to be matchup proof at this point. It's getting harder and harder to keep him on my bench.
