I'm never sitting Jakobi Meyers

For the time being, it appears us speculators are out of permanent answers at quarterback. So what do we do? What we do best — get dirty doing the work as we tackle it case-by-case. If you’re in need of a QB for just this weekend, plant your flag on the burly Tennessee rookie Will Levis. First off, I’m glad to see the Titans take a proactive approach and give him the keys to the car. As an organization, they need to figure out just where they stand going forward, for better or worse. We need to see more of this. Levis pops up on all three of our lists, paving the way to fantasy potential. Levis has combined volume, depth, and efficiency by dropping back 37.5 times a game while challenging the secondary often and adding expected points to the offense. This weekend, the Titans head to sunny Florida to face the pass-funnel Buccaneers. Tampa’s pass defense ranks poorly under the season-long lens, and it’s gotten much worse of late due to injuries. Over their past three contests, the Bucs are 31st or worse in Def. EPA/Dropback (-0.33), Opponent Passer Rating (123), Yards Per Reception (13.1), Passing Yards Allowed Per Game (333.3), +20 Yard Completions (14), and Passing Touchdowns (7). Levis faces the Jaguars and Panthers after that, though — tough sledding worthy of an immediate eject button.

If you’re battling for a playoff spot and worried beyond Week 10, you could pivot away from Levis toward Gardner Minshew. The Colts gets two juicy matchups in a three-week span. Unfortunately we won’t even get a chance at a floor game Week 11 because it’s a bye sandwich for Indy. You get the same horrendous Tampa Bay stats above, except in Week 12, along with the leaky Patriots in their place this Sunday. The once vaunted Pats are in a downward spiral and currently pulling up the caboose for the AFC at 2-7. Injuries have decimated their defense, in particular the secondary, and New England should be considered a streaming target going forward until something changes. Over the past month, Minshew is seventh in dropbacks and eighth in passing yards with a QB3 weekly finish jammed in there. We could do a lot worse.
