Week 17 quarterback start or sit
Which quarterbacks to start in week 17, and why.
Almost all of a quarterback's points come from passing yards and passing touchdowns, so the weekly call usually turns on the matchup and the pace of the game rather than on volume.
No call for week 17 quarterbacks yet. Calls publish once the week's player markets open, which they do over the Tuesday and Wednesday of game week, and nothing is invented before then.
Every call is published with its reasoning, locked at kickoff and graded in public.
Start the running back, sit the receiver.
- His team is a home favourite with the higher implied total, so there are more scoring plays to go round.
- Both are cleared to play, with no designation on either at kickoff.
- The receiver's market receiving line sits below his season average this week.
Locks at kickoff, graded after.
