Need one QB have Aaron Rodgers, J. Allen and D. Lock who should I play. Or should I go and get E. Manning or Rivers?
Rivers could be a good game I think. His only downside is all the interceptions and turnovers.
If your in these forums you shouldn’t have Rodgers anymore. Drop him.
Here is how my model has each of them projected this week and next week:
Rivers - QB24, 10
Lock - QB16, 7
J. Allen - QB20, 24
Rodgers - QB23, 16
Manning - QB10, 18
For reasons I outlined in my streaming post two weeks ago, I would rank Allen a little higher than my projection model, but he is still a very low-end QB 1 to me. Lock was impressive last week, but with only two full games of data and playing against an underrated KC defense on the road, I would try to avoid him this week.
I would pick up and play Manning personally. I’ll give the standard caveat here - Rodgers and Allen are both clearly better talents that can go off any given week, and if you would have a problem losing with them putting up a big game on your bench, you should probably stick with them. I think the probability is higher that Manning has a better game due to the matchup, so that’s how I would go this week. Given the options you have, I would also consider stashing Lock. If he plays well again, he faces a very QB-friendly Detroit defense at home next week.
My QB model is below for reference. Hope that helps. Good luck!
