The Official I'm benching Dak in favor of ___________

Hard to trust with playoffs just around the corner.. Who are you benching him for .. Watch this guy blow up tonight on peoples benches 

 

[need2know]

Anybody

 

[BobbyLayne]

Alex Smith?

   

Lets put it this way...I was bummed someone sniped Josh McCown. Contemplating Gabbert, Hundley or Winston from the WW.

I typed that. Oh my.

Yep.  I picked up Winston yesterday and am probably starting him over Prescott.  I just can't trust Dak until he shows me he can do anything without Zeke.

All your talk in the WW thread, and you left yourself with Smith vs. Dak?  Eesh ... I'd play Dak and hope he gets on track.  Not sure I'd trust any of those other guys personally.

I say all this as I'm set to start McCown over Dak in 2 leagues where I have to win to make the playoffs (and get help for that matter, but control what you can control).  I think Dallas should return to their early season roots in this game and saddle up Morris for 20 carries and give another 10+ to Smith.  Then let Dak throw off play action.  If they do that, I could see a solid game from everyone.  If the scoreboard gets away from them though ... I don't like it for Dak after what we've seen the last 5 weeks.

Go get em, McCown.

But Dallas won't be able to run like that when they go down by multiple scores cause the defense blows

 

[eNdblu]

Never thought I'd say this, but considering benching him for Gabbert.... 16tm dynasty lg, so options are slim

I wanted McCown, 8th Place team bid a third of his FAAB.

Spoiler

Now I’m stuck because I have JuJu (Q) & Robert Woods (O) on IR. Would have to cut two players & move them to the active roster before I make a FA claim (can’t make moves if you have players on IR who are not O.) Hoping RW is declared out today - hate this system, everyone knows the Rams WR is missing this week, but until the team declares that on their injury report...

Anyway, still not convinced Gabbert or Garrapolo or Hundley (2 more weeks?) or Winston are a better solution than holding & hoping. Rest of the team is solid - 2nd in points - just need a decent floor at QB.

 

[DarkKnightsGuru]

I would bench him for Tyrod Taylor and Case Keenum and Mcnown and not even look back

 

[squistion]

Derek Carr, who is my only other option.

 

[Zyphros]

I'm benching for Hundley in 1 league and Alex Smith in the other.  It's a 2QB so there's nothing on waivers to find.  

 

[gianmarco]

Matt Ryan in 1.

McCown in another :X

 

[Weebs210]

Was able to get Goff after someone dropped him after a down game a few weeks ago. Hopefully Dak can get it right because Goff and Dak have perfect schedule synergy down the stretch.

 

[The Dude]

McCown

You're a month late.

 

[Interseptopus]

Why would you bench him? According to Football Jones he's the best 4th round QB in the history of the NFL

 

[DarkKnightsGuru]

because hes missing Zeke and hes hit for goose eggs last 2 games and Dallas is a mess.. Things change.. He will be benched till he shows me other wise

I was being facetious. "The best 4th rounder of all time" should be able to over-come a missing RB. 

But yes, his success is highly tied to Zeke. We are perhaps seeing the "real" Dak now that he has to do it without a pro bowl RB. 

I'd bench Dak for anyone at this point. 

 

 

[tombonneau]

Jimmy G or Bortles. Flat out unstartable until he shows anything.

 

[Peak]

Torn between McCown and Cousins in a must win situation.  But either way, Dak isn't sniffing my lineup.

 

[avina1]

dropped for Keenum. Feels good.

 

[ahartig]

Tyrod

 

[Arodin]

Winston.  Ugh.

 

[wormburner]

Good call.  Turns out, I "Liked" the wrong post!  

 

[candian fantasy guy]

I'm now stick handling 3 QB's which is highly unusual for me. Dak on the bench with Bortles and Gabbert on the bench. Probably going to go Bortles with the championship on the line ... it's not how I saw this team going only 3-4 weeks ago as I didn't even have a back up QB. That's FF though, gotta roll with the punches! 

good luck all!
