In Week 11, Jared Goff set the pace as the top fantasy QB with a massive four-touchdown game as the Lions continue to roll. Joe Burrow was right behind him in another loss for the Bengals as they head into their bye week. In Denver, Bo Nix had another big game for the Broncos while Jameis Winston and Anthony Richardson rounded out the top five at the position. Richardson’s return was not only a fantasy football success, but he also led his Colts to a road win over the Jets.
After a very crowded top 10 the last few weeks, this week things are much thinner with only 26 teams in action and six teams on a bye. The Bengals are joined by the Bills, Falcons, Saints, Jets and Jaguars getting the week off.
Last week, I ranked Lamar Jackson as my No. 1 QB, but he was a letdown in a loss to the Steelers. After that tough loss, he has another tough matchup this week against the Chargers on Monday Night Football. As a result, I moved him out of the top spot in favor of Jalen Hurts and the surging Eagles, who go on the road on Sunday Night Football to face the Rams.
Here are my top 10 QBs for Week 12:
- Jalen Hurts ( at LAR)
- Jayden Daniels (vs. DAL)
- Lamar Jackson (at LAC)
- Jared Goff (at IND)
- Justin Herbert (vs. BAL)
- Bo Nix (at LV)
- Patrick Mahomes (at CAR)
- Kyler Murray (at SEA)
- Baker Mayfield (at NYG)
- Tua Tagovailoa (vs. NE)
These rankings are based on news and information available as of Monday evening. Stay tuned to DraftKings Network throughout the week for ongoing coverage as matchups and situations develop.
