Just realized Jayden is out.

Options are:

Aaron Rodgers
Russel Wilson
Marcus Mariota (Jayden's backup)
Mac Jones (looked good against the saints)
Carson Wentz
Bryce Young

Leaning towards Arod b/c of matchups but some of the options could be a good gamble

If you dont mind a little risk, I'm starting Penix over all those guys this week.

Yeah a little. Hes been really good 3 out of his last 4 (according to NFL Fantasy Live) and he torched the Panthers last year. The Panthers defense may be worse this year. IMO there's more risk with the other retirees that were mentioned.

I'm starting Penix with Fields out. Be nice if he has a good game and he can be a good fantasy backup.

I have Jayden as well, but picked up Caleb Williams off of waivers over Penix. Now I’m second guessing with how many of y’all seem to be rolling with Penix.

Well, Williams wasn't available. Bears and Cowboys is probably gonna be a score fest. Here's the ECR for QBs this week.

Yeah that heavily influenced my decision to pick up Williams. Plus, I’ve watched both Falcons’ games this year and imo they’re calling a pretty conservative playbook for Penix, so I worry about his ceiling. I’m just caught up in the usual Sunday morning line up second guessing.

I think playing Caleb Williams would be a good play. The bears may suck, but he should still put up some points.

Why are people responding with someone who probably isn’t available?

ESPN was talking him up earlier. Obviously take that for what it's worth.

Supposedly KOC said that they can run the same offense and Wentz does give you the rushing TD upside. It's indoors and MIN is his hometown team, etc. That was their rationale.

would probably just get his backup for the time being. might make the decision easier.

too late now though. hope you avoided penix.

Wish I saw this earlier. Carolina was ranked 11th in pass defense coming in. They've actually improved a whole alot this year

They were talking about that on the morning shows as well saying that it was more about who Carolina had played and not how good they are. Like I was saying, almost everyone was on starting Penix. It just didn’t work out this time. That's the risk of streaming QBs.
