FSH NOTEBOOK: DAVID'S DAILY DIGEST

Saturday Night Edition

Week 8 QB Rankings

Topping the charts this week, to be expected is Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, as he should be facing the lowly Niners defense. Wentz has been solid this season the Niners are coming off a week 7 throttling by the Cowboys Dak Prescott.

After falling flat last week against the Bears, a week 8 meeting with the Buccaneers is just what Cam Newton may need to bounce back. Newton has been solid this season and last week may have just been an anomaly. Fantasy owners can look for Newton to have much greater success this Sunday against a defense that allows the 3rd most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks.

The Falcons defense has been trending the wrong direction of late, enter Jets quarterback Josh McCown. It’s not a prime week for big numbers, but with so many teams on Bye, McCown (the No.13 fantasy QB) could still be in play as a streaming option. He has posted back-to-back 20-plus fantasy point games.
