Episode notes
Prioritize Rushing Upside For QB Streams
- If you need a QB with rushing upside, add Daniel Jones or Jackson Dart as streaming options this week.
- Prioritize quarterbacks who rush or face favorable matchups over purely high-floor pocket passers.

- If you're desperate at QB, consider Jake Browning as a stash because the Bengals' schedule softens.
- Avoid long-term reliance unless he proves consistent or no better option emerges.
Elite Passing Doesn’t Equal Fantasy Ceiling
- Matthew Stafford grades as an elite passer but lacks rushing value, limiting his fantasy ceiling.
- He offers a high floor but rarely reaches quarterback-one upside without rushing.
