Mariotta vs Winston vs Cousins

[luckyheel317 1]

standard scoring...only start 1QB and I have been playing Cousins most of the year, started Winston this week just because of the weather in Baltimore potentially impacting the passing game.

 

That said, Mariotta is on waivers and I am struggling to decide whether to pick him up and drop Cousins or Winston. My gut tells me to drop Cousins because of Winston's next 4 opponents after this week's bye (SF, OAK, ATL, CHI), but my head tells me to keep Cousins since Winston isn't exactly 'consistent', unless you call throwing an average of 1.6 INT/week consistent.

 

Mariotta's match-up this week is strong vs CLE but he also has been inconsistent save his performance this past weekend.

 

Anyway, just wanted some thoughts on whether to ride Cousins this week or go with Mariotta and then who to drop.

 

TIA

Maybe Alex Smith is on waivers?

I like the upside of Winston, especially with Mike Evans blowing up. I would drop Cousins, as Washington is imploding. Pick up Mariotta or an Alex Smith if he is on waivers too...good luck brother.

Mariota had a good game last week .

 

That's one out of five.

 

I wouldn't pick him up.

 

After Walker they don't have a lot of good play makers in the passing game. M

Washington imploding? They have won three in row.
