Ryan plays CAR
Osweiller plays @ OAK
Hoyer v NE
Bradford v BUF

I have Osweiler pencilled in for now, but the Broncos seem to be using him as more of a game manager.

Personally, I would go Osweiler. Denver O has opened up since he took over, he is gaining confidence, has been able to get the ball to his receivers...and Oakland is ranked 21st against QBs giving up an average of 22.1 pts.

Carolina is ranked 4th against QBs, giving up avg 16.9 pts and Ryan has been terrible. NE is ranked 9th, giving up 19.0 and it's Hoyer. Buffalo is ranked 19th, giving up 21.2 and it's Bradford.

You have some tough choices, and this is just my opinion...good luck!

Full disclosure...I am a woman (no pics or sammiches) who takes FF very seriously. I've done A LOT of research this year and am in the playoffs.

Denver O has opened up since he took over


Denver's offense has opened up to more runs since Osweiler has taken over. Under 30 pass attempts in 3 of 4 games.

12.82 24 14 146 1 1
24.35 27 20 250 2 0
18.27 42 23 270 1 1
13.35 26 16 166 1 1


Hoyer, meanwhile, has only attempted less than 30 passes in 2 of 9 games. One of those was against the Saints in which they were in control of the game. The other was against Cincy in which he got knocked out of the game.


Go with the volume in Hoyer. They aren't going to be in control of this game. Better floor AND ceiling with Hoyer.

The decision is really only between Osweiller or Hoyer.

Osweiller is probably the safer bet, with a lower ceiling.

Hoyer could either have a big game or just as easily lay an egg.

The only "egg" that Hoyer has laid (in my leagues) was Week 1. And, obviously, when he got hurt.

Look at these point totals in my league:

Week 5: 28.33
Week 6: 33.85
Week 7: 29.85
Week 8: 24.77
Week 9: Bye
Week 10: 5.60 (hurt)
Week 11: Hurt
Week 12: 21.63
Week 13: 32.77

I don't even know how this is a discussion. I posted Osweiler's point totals earlier in this thread.
