Chickie 73 Posted September 1, 2023 Anyone looking to stream a QB in place of Burrow @Clev. Questions about Burrow’s mobility playing v an aggressive defense at home. Wondering if someone else might be a safer play than the *limited* Burrow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never bench your studs. if he proves hes unable to perform, then you bench him. so due to the injury you may want to carry a second qb (just in case) for the first couple weeks of the season 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 3,009 Posted September 1, 2023 I disagree with you don’t ever bench your studs, I’ve done it when the matchup was just to one sided, and it’s paid off plenty. But in this case Burrow is playing , he’s going to be good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supposed to play, although limited. Others in this thread have already stated you play him if he plays no matter what, hence the prediction. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 918 Posted September 11, 2023 Browns have had Burrow's number (1-5 record now), and they have a good defense. That still doesn't explain everything. Either lack of practice, the calf strain, or just a fluky bad game. Probably ain't practice given Burrow's history and the team is mostly unchanged. That means... fluky bad game hopes every Burrow owner. Burrow was 2nd favorite to win MVP. 82 yds passing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There really wasn't a QB that played exceptionally well outside of Tua, at least for fantasy. Mac Jones was 2nd in my league. He was good, but I don't think anybody started him. Jordan Love and Cousins were decent too but nothing spectacular. Just kind of a slow day overall for QBs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IGotWorms 4,028 Posted September 11, 2023 These teams are not ready for the season. Truncated training camp, nobody plays meaningful snaps in pre-season… is it any wonder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickie 73 Posted September 12, 2023 So much for the play your studs rant. Looks like it wasn’t the craziest question on the board now, was it? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
