Flacco or Bortles? (1 Viewer)

[walbridge20]

10 team 0.5 ppr with decimal scoring (so 0.1 points for every rushing yard).

Ive started Bortles every week so far and while his final totals haven't been back breaking thanks to garbage time he just has not been very good at all to the tune of 19th highest scoring QB.

I went back and looked at his previous games in London and he has not been very good in any of them.

Flacco entices me against a shoddy Raiders defense. The other thing is Bortles is on by next week anyway so I will be dropping him regardless on Tuesday

I would start Flacco over Bortles. Is Flacco on the wire? (like you are going ot drop Bortles and pick up Flacco?)

Either way, I say do it.

Honestly, I don't see an argument for Flacco at all. Even though Bortles has looked shoddy, the final numbers have been there, and those numbers have been better than Flacco's. Indy's pass defense is awful, and Jacksonville can't run the ball at all. 

I'd stay the course with Bortles, he's still a likely top-10 QB, by sheer volume, even if it is ugly.

Flacco is currently on the wire. I would be dropping Bortles for Flacco as I don't have anyone else on my team that I would feel comfortable dropping at this point. Unless Bortles has a huge game tomorrow I am planning on dropping him next week anyway due to his bye week so I was kind of thinking of planning ahead and saving myself a wednesday morning waiver claim.
