Geno Smith Offers Week 7 Streaming Appeal Against Miami

Saturday, October 24, 6:56 AM

New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is a QB2 and streaming consideration in deeper one-quarterback leagues because the Miami Dolphins, visiting Sunday, have converted an NFL-low 8.2% of their pressures into sacks, while Smith has faced pressure on 42.7% of his dropbacks. He completed 20 of 30 passes for 252 yards, a touchdown, and an interception against the New England Patriots in Week 6, bringing his season totals to 1,336 passing yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception with a 68.9% completion rate. Adonai Mitchell's return gives him another receiving option alongside Garrett Wilson and Omar Cooper Jr. He has thrown multiple touchdown passes only once this season and has contributed just 42 rushing yards.

Jared Goff News

Jared Goff a Must-Start Quarterback in Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 6:10 AM

Across five games so far in 2026, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has completed 67% of his pass attempts for 1,485 yards, 12 touchdowns, and zero interceptions. While Goff does not provide any fantasy production with his legs, he's been one of the more productive throwers of the football in the NFL this season. Detroit's brutal defense has also forced Goff and the Lions' offense into pass-heavy game scripts. The 32-year-old is currently averaging 38.2 pass attempts per contest. In Week 7, Goff and the Lions could find themselves in another high-scoring affair against the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay has defended the pass well in 2026, ranking third in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (6.0) and eighth in passing touchdowns allowed (seven). Still, Goff's production this year and the potential for a favorable game script make him a must-start quarterback for fantasy managers in Week 7.
