    Default Week 8 QB

    Gotta make a call on a QB for a 4 point/TD league. Been rolling with Watson lately but he's clearly hurt and don't love that he;s on a short week.

    Options on the wire are:

    Luck @ Oak
    Mitch vs NYJ
    Watson vs Mia on TNF

    I feel like Luck is obvious, BUT....it's FAAB so i bet someone else will bid on him. Plus Indy traveling to Oakland....probably some stat in there about teams traveling West.....?

    I agree. Something is off with Watson right now, and I'd sit him on Thursday night.

    4 pt passing TD hurts Luck more than Trubisky, and Oakland being a total dumpster fire on both sides of the ball could hurt him from getting 4 full quarters of action, but he'd still be my call here. Given what Trubisky has shown with his legs and a pretty favorable matchup overall against the Jets, he'd be my next choice.

    Watson has the talent to pop off for sure. But like you said, something just hasn't been right so I also think he has the lowest floor of the 3 for the time being.

    Definitely Luck--better pedigree and major passing volume. You could do worse than Trubisky as a second option, though. That CHI offense is rolling, though he isn't throwing many TDs (with the exception of the TB game).

    Yep. But how could you know? He had a partially collapsed lung last week and hasn't been putting up numbers lately. Plus, his TD rate was unsustainably efficient last nite. The process was correct, and thats all you can do sometimes.

    Haha I know. Just sucked waking up to 5 TDs. I would sit him again though for sure.

    I'm actually kinda bummed because my plan was to drop him after game time! Next week at Denver isn't great....then on a bye.

    But oh well....
