Should You Start or Sit Brissett in Week 14?
This is a volume-based business, and it would appear that you’re never going to get cheated on that front when you invest in Brissett.
The “backup” QB has put the ball in the air 40+ times in four straigh,t and he’s completed over 72% of his attempts in two of his past three. The touchdown came in the red zone last week against the Bucs, a crushing mistake in a game that ended up being a 20-17 loss, but for our purposes, he continues to pay the bills with an elevated floor.
Brissett has multiple TD tosses in six of seven starts, and it’s really not a complicated formula: throw it to your best players.
Marvin Harrison was welcomed back with seven targets, combining with Trey McBride for 48.3% of Arizona’s receptions. Much like the initial Joe Flacco burst, opponents know precisely where the targets are going, and they can’t do anything about it.
Bryce Young completed 75% of his passes against the Rams last week. That’s not to say that this elite defense is now vulnerable, but it’s a gentle reminder that matchups are a single data point, not the entire story. I’ve got Brissett ranked as a low-end QB1 and think you’re going to keep rolling him out there until we have a real reason to pivot.
