QBs with .5 Points Per Completion (1 Viewer)

I'm in a league where, as the title says, get .5 points per completion (6 pts per rushing TD and 4 pts for pass TD).

REALLY struggling trying to wrap my head around who should be the guys to target week to week. In my draft, all the top ranked QBs went in the first two rounds so I built my team and ended up with Goff late. I was totally satisfied with that as they have a good offense with a good schedule and a ton of indoor games. But he's not been good for me.

What I've noticed is these settings water down the rushing of the running QBs. Where everywhere says you NEED a running QB and a guy like Richardson (as bad as he is in real life) could be a league winner, this league doesn't look that way (in now the 3 seasons I've been in it). Alternatively, this week, I was surprised that Darnold (with 4 passing TDs) was not one of the week's top scorers. It appears that maybe the top QB scorers are ones who get the passings yards along with TDs of any kind. I would think a guy like Goff would be great with the presumed amount of completions he would get but, as I said, it appears that the .5 ppc is only upping the overall scores of all the QBs and not really being the difference between each one.

Anyone have any experience with scoring setting like these and have any advice? Really contemplating dropping Goff for J Daniels or Caleb.
 
I would stick with Goff. You want a guy that has a high throwing volume as it sets a high floor based on completions. Going 22-30 every week gets you a base of 11 pts no matter what. Goff with be better than either Daniels or Williams for that.

Now Daniels has looked good for sure and his rushing TD's help off set his lower passing TD's because of the two point difference. But I could see games where he has 15 or less completions lowering his floor (kind of as the rushing yards then increase the floor).

Bottom line If you want upside in your QB get Daniels. If you want floor with upside possible then go with Goff.
