kilroy69 994 Posted November 18, 2020 I swooped him up to play over cousins. Anyone else gonna roll the dice on him against the leagues worst pass D with a better Offense and Coach than he has ever had? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easilyscan 558 Posted November 18, 2020 I had to do a Google search 'NFL quarterback nicknamed crab legs' to find out who you were talking about...LOL It's certainly tempting. The only fly in the ointment would be Taysom Hill. Definitely a high risk, high reward play. Good luck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobSanders_33 127 Posted November 18, 2020 I'd say Cousin has weapons and also has a favorable match up without the concern that a wildcat qb steals points around the goal line. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polecatt 402 Posted November 18, 2020 I think he's a decent play this weekend. Winston is certainly capable of putting up big numbers, it's just his tendency to throw it to the other team that keeps him down. I would probably play him over Cousins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In a 2 QB league, I have Josh Allen (bye), Drew Brees (out), and Carson Wentz. I needed to pick him up to start opposite Wentz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coach may run a conservative offense to keep him from the INTs. he may be a great play, but he also may not. at this point i'd say its a bit of a crapshoot.

pipeman 16 Posted November 19, 2020 I've been streaming QB since Dak snapped his leg. I picked him up and am considering him over Carr. In an even sneakier move, is anyone considering picking up Hill, since ESPN is listing him as QB/TE? In a year of constant TE issues, inserting Hill and picking up some QB points in the tight end slot could be a game-changer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone else has him as a qb only which would not make him worthwhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hill is averaging 4.16 fantasy points per game, so if your current TE is scoring less than that, then Hill would definitely be an upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 994 Posted November 19, 2020 In nine games against Atlanta Winston has averaged 277.7 yards per game while throwing 25 touchdowns and just nine interceptions. And again. Atlanta is 31st against the pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUsualSuspect 207 Posted November 20, 2020 Over Tanne, Tua, and Carr. Not over Cousins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 994 Posted November 20, 2020 According to ESPN's Dianna Russini, Jameis Winston "will not be part of any offensive packages" Week 11 against the Falcons. Well thanks coach. That makes my choice easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he does play the whole game @ QB, & does well, I have to think this is going to start a firestorm of complaints from those who lost to the opponent who picked him up & played him @ the TE position.

QB scoring is the same as RB's WR's, etc. 6 pts for td's & 1 pt per 10 rushing/passing yards. 300 yds passing + 3 td's = 48 pts. That would be insanely unfair! And I'd be the one listening to the screaming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaylon Samuals had TE designation as a Rb and Colston had Te designation as a Wr but I have never seen a qb/te combo. That seems super odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted November 21, 2020 Just saw that the Saints coach said, he hasn’t named a starter at Qb for this weekend yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh wiley 27 Posted November 21, 2020 So with Michael Thomas finally getting healthy does this just knock him back to mediocre ceiling numbers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,459 Posted November 21, 2020 I was thinking the opposite if Winston was going to be the starter, but if it’s T Hill, I wouldn’t like M Thomas as much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
