Matthew Stafford A Risky Play In Tough Matchup

Sunday, December 3, 2:45 AM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is coming off his most productive game of the season. Stafford threw for four touchdowns in the team's blowout victory against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 12. However, he now faces a dominant Cleveland Browns defense that has been number one against the pass this season. Led by Defensive Player of the Year candidate Myles Garrett, Cleveland has been a nightmare for opposing offenses through 12 weeks. Despite the team getting Kyren Williams back and being at full strength, Stafford should be treated as a high-end QB2 with an extremely low floor in Week 13.

Mac Jones Benched For Bailey Zappe In Week 12

Sunday, November 26, 2:42 PM

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones was benched and replaced by Bailey Zappe during halftime of Sunday's game against the New York Giants. Jones had completed 12 of 21 passes for 89 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions at the time of his departure. He now has a horrendous ratio of 10 touchdowns to 12 interceptions this season. He also fumbled on Sunday, but it was recovered by New England. Week 12 marks the fourth time this season that Jones has been benched for Zappe. It last happened in Week 10 when Bill Belichick made the switch ahead of a decisive fourth-quarter drive versus the Colts. In that scenario, Zappe threw a game-ending interception. Zappe doesn't represent a major drop-off from Jones, so Demario Douglas, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Hunter Henry should continue to warrant fantasy consideration.
