Who to start and who to sit? It’s the one question you need to answer right to do well in fantasy football. You won’t get it right every time. But at Bruno Boys, we help you work through those tougher decisions. That way, you make informed decisions on your starting lineup and will be confident in locking it in.
Our Quarterback Starts and Sits look at the line that separates QB1s and QB2s. We will rarely cover studs, unless it’s a sit recommendation based on matchup or we want to make note of a significant angle in the Quick Hits section at the end. Injuries happen too, which affects other players’ fantasy outlook.
We also consider super flex and two-quarterback leagues, which have become increasingly popular. There are owners who need to know when it’s safe to put Jameis Winston into a lineup or when the stars align to start rookies Mac Jones or Justin Fields. Lastly, bye weeks are a factor now.
Here are the Week 9 Fantasy Football Quarterbacks to Sit.
Ryan Tannehill, Tennessee Titans at Los Angeles Rams
This is a big wait-and-see week for Tannehill owners. Can the veteran quarterback produce points without Julio Jones AND Derrick Henry? Can he elevate the play of his teammates against a stout defense? Yes, Tannehill is coming off back-to-back victories where he put up good numbers. He’s finished three times in the top 12 and had his best game of the season in Week 8.
However, the reality is that the Rams are a stubborn bunch. They’ve allowed an opposing quarterback to throw over 300+ yards and more than one touchdown twice all season long. The game script will be all about managing the game without Henry and not throwing into towards Jalen Ramsey’s way.
