MIAMI, Oct. 23 (UPI) — Bo Nix and Matthew Stafford are amongst my 5 must-start fantasy soccer quarterbacks for Week 8.
Jordan Love leads my Prime-20 quarterback rankings, that are under. Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow and Jalen Hurts are amongst my different Prime-5 performs. C.J. Stroud, Tua Tagovailoa, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers and Nix spherical out my Prime 10.
My Week 8 operating again and large receiver rankings stay obtainable to your preparation. My free-agent targets article is accessible right here.
My positional rankings will proceed to be up to date for developments, together with accidents. Those that roster Jayden Daniels ought to monitor his follow standing earlier than beginning him.
Tagovailoa, Drake Maye and Kirk Cousins be part of Nix and Matthew Stafford as my must-start choices. A number of streaming choices additionally may be discovered inside my rankings.
Every of my must-start choices land contained in the Prime 14 of my quarterback rankings.
Tua Tagovailoa
Tagovailoa, who additionally was amongst my waiver wire targets, is the No. 7 participant in my Week 8 quarterback rankings. The Miami Dolphins quarterback is about to finish his concussion-triggered hiatus and return to the sphere for the primary time since Week 2.
He’ll get a pleasant matchup towards the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday in Miami Gardens, Fla. The Cardinals allowed the seventh-most passing yards and fifth-most fantasy factors per recreation to quarterbacks by way of seven weeks. In addition they simply surrendered 349 yards to Justin Herbert in Week 7 and 4 landing tosses to Jordan Love in Week 6.
Search for Tagovailoa to get off to a terrific restart to his 2024 marketing campaign. I count on at the very least 250 yards and two scores from the Dolphins quarterback.
Kirk Cousins
Cousins is the No. 8 participant in my Week 8 quarterback rankings. The Atlanta Falcons veteran adopted an epic 509-yard, four-touchdown efficiency in Week 5 towards the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with simply two whole landing passes during the last two weeks, however ought to rebound with a Week 8 rematch with the Buccaneers.
The Buccaneers allowed the second-most fantasy factors and fourth-most passing yards per recreation to opposing quarterbacks this season. That stretch consists of final week’s five-touchdown efficiency from Lamar Jackson.
Cousins ought to once more present elite worth in Week 8.
Bo Nix
Nix is an effective beginning possibility in case your regular starter is injured or faces a troublesome matchup. The Denver Broncos rookie totaled at the very least 200 passing yards in 4 of the primary seven begins of his profession. He threw a number of landing passes in two of his final three video games. He additionally offered worth as a runner.
This week, the Broncos will face a Carolina Panthers protection that allowed the fourth-most fantasy factors per recreation to opposing quarterbacks to date this season. I count on this to be a decent recreation, with Nix discovering the top zone a number of occasions. He ought to present Prime 10 worth.
Drake Maye
Maye, who was amongst my must-start performs in Week 7, returns to the checklist in Week 8. The New England Patriots rookie totaled the sixth-most factors amongst quarterbacks final week, when he threw for 276 yards and two scores in a loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
This week, Maye and the Patriots will face a New York Jets protection that simply allowed 264 passing yards and three whole scores to Russell Wilson.
Maye, my No. 11 possibility, may be plugged in as a streaming starter.
Matthew Stafford
Stafford is available in at No. 13 in my Week 8 rankings. The Los Angeles Rams veteran has struggled this season, however is about to get again one in all his prime weapons: large receiver Cooper Kupp. Kupp’s presence, paired with what I consider might be a high-scoring recreation script, ought to end in starter-worthy statistics from Stafford.
The Rams are set to host the Minnesota Vikings, who allowed the second-most passing yards (285.3) per recreation to opposing quarterbacks by way of seven weeks.
Search for Stafford to log a season-high in cross makes an attempt on this assembly. He ought to eclipse 250 passing yards and has a shot to seek out the top zone greater than as soon as.
