The Top QBs To Start in Week 2
Jared Goff, Detroit Lions
Jared Goff didn’t necessarily light the world on fire in Week 1 against the Chiefs, but he didn’t crush your lineup if you decided to start him. He now gets a much easier matchup in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks that just saw Matthew Stafford and the Cooper Kupp-less Rams march all over them.
With the receiving weapons that Goff has available to him, he should be on the streaming radar this week, and he has enough upside to finish as a top-10 option.
Daniel Jones, New York Giants
Start Daniel Jones? Are you insane?Â
It wasn’t pretty in Week 1, but we need to remember just how dominant the Cowboys’ defense is and that we shouldn’t project Jones forward for the entire season based on that one performance.
He gets a much easier matchup in Week 2 going up against the Cardinals’ defense that made Sam Howell look like a rockstar at certain points during that game. With the amount of rushing attempts that Jones saw in Week 1 (13), plus the matchup, he’s a top-15 play against Arizona.
