Predicting Week 8's Top 10 Fantasy QBs

Aaron Rodgers and the Packers offense have been starting to click on all cylinders in the past few weeks. Given the talent within that unit, that’s not great news for the rest of the NFL. Is it enough to land Rodgers at the top of the list for fantasy quarterbacks in week 8, though? (Note: Quarterbacks from the Thursday game are not included.)

Coming off of a bye, the Eagles are going to be looking to keep pace with Dallas atop the NFC East. Though the banged up Arizona defense has performed well this year, Foles and Chip Kelly should have a plan to have a nice day against them in a game that could become a shootout.

Speaking of that game becoming a shootout, Palmer’s looked good since getting back on the field and the Eagles pass defense isn’t necessarily frightening. He should be able to put up nice fantasy numbers versus Philly.

Romo has been solid along with most components of the Dallas offense thus far this season and now he has a great matchup with a lackluster Washington defense. Though the narrative may say don’t trust Romo because he’ll fold, this season thus far says he’ll have a good day at the office on Monday night.

7. Joe Flacco

Flacco is another guy that’s been hard to trust over the past couple of seasons, but he’s been tearing it up as of late. Putting him up against an ailing Bengals defense and you have to like the Ravens QB’s chances for yet another big day.

6. Matthew Stafford

There’s a strong argument to be made that Stafford has been a disappointment so far this year. Though it’s a possibility that he’ll be without Calvin Johnson again on Sunday in London, he’s going against an awful Falcons defense that he should be able to dice up.

5. Tom Brady

Tom Brady looks like Tom Brady after many people thinking that Tom Brady was done looking like Tom Brady. That said, Tom Brady should be able to have a good day against a struggling Bears defense.

Tannehill hasn’t proven himself wholly just yet, but he has proven that he can be a stud against bad team. Though the Jaguars are coming off a win, it’s safe to still classify them as a pretty bad team in this league.

3. Andrew Luck

Luck has been a fantasy giant this season in the best offense in the league. Putting him up against the trick-or-treat defense of the Steelers that has been a lot of trick so far this year, Luck should be a safe bet for solid numbers in fantasy.

2. Aaron Rodgers

Rodgers doesn’t land at number one this week, but he’s awfully close. The Green Bay signal-caller playing against a struggling Saints defense in a dome is exactly what Rodgers owners want to see in the hopes of him having a monster day.

Wilson has been putting up some humungous fantasy days as of late. Now that you put him up against a Carolina defense that couldn’t seemingly stifle an elementary school flag football team, Wilson should be able to produce with his arm and with his legs on Sunday.
