Fantasy Football Week 12 Rankings – Quarterbacks

To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy QB rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a Traditional scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

    290 Passing Yards, 3 Pass TDs, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Sam Darnold has a much easier matchup this week.

  3. Josh Allen, QB, Bills (at Texans)- 24 Points

    Josh Allen won’t do as well this week against Houston’s defense.

  5. Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs (vs. Colts)- 21 Points
    270 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 30 Rushing Yards.
    Patrick Mahomes barely ran in his previous game. He’ll need to do much more of that against this improving defense.

  6. Jaxson Dart, QB, Giants (at Lions)- 21 Points
    200 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 50 Rushing Yards, 1 TD.
    Jaxson Dart can be started, even against the Lions, because of his mobility.

  7. Brock Purdy, QB, 49ers (vs. Panthers)- 20 Points
    250 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Brock Purdy looked healthy last week, and he has a good matchup here.

  8. Lamar Jackson, QB, Ravens (vs. Jets)- 20 Points

    Lamar Jackson doesn’t look healthy.

    Jared Goff goes into a much easier matchup.

  10. Jordan Love, QB, Packers (vs. Vikings)- 18 Points
    230 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 10 Rushing Yards.
    The Vikings allowed some big plays last week.

  11. Matthew Stafford, QB, Rams (vs. Buccaneers)- 18 Points
    260 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs.
    Matthew Stafford looks healthy, and he’ll be going against a pass-funnel defense this week.

  12. Caleb Williams, QB, Bears (vs. Steelers)- 17 Points
    210 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 30 Rushing Yards.
    Pittsburgh has issues defensively.

    Dak Prescott will see lots of pressure in this matchup.

  15. Daniel Jones, QB, Colts (at Chiefs)- 16 Points
    290 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 30 Rushing Yards.
    Daniel Jones doesn’t have the best matchup this week.

  16. C.J. Stroud, QB, Texans (vs. Bills)- 16 Points
    260 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Status unknown.

  17. Jacoby Brissett, QB, Cardinals (vs. Jaguars)- 15 Points
    230 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Jacoby Brissett probably won’t throw nearly as much this week.

    Aaron Rodgers got hurt against the Bengals.

  19. Trevor Lawrence, QB, Jaguars (at Cardinals)- 14 Points
    260 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Trevor Lawrence has been a disappointment thus far. He has a tougher matchup this week.

  20. Geno Smith, QB, Raiders (vs. Browns)- 13 Points
    250 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.
    ESPN DEI hire Mina Kimes said that Geno Smith is a top-10 quarterback.

  21. Bryce Young, QB, Panthers (at 49ers)- 12 Points
    220 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.
    The 49ers are missing lots of personnel, so this isn’t a tough matchup.

    200 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.
    The Falcons are usually strong against the pass.

    Justin Fields doesn’t have the best matchup against the Ravens.

  24. J.J. McCarthy, QB, Vikings (at Packers)- 11 Points
    210 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 2 INTs, 30 Rushing Yards.
    J.J. McCarthy should have been a UDFA.

    220 Passing Yards, 20 Rushing Yards.
    Terrible.

  26. Kirk Cousins, QB, Falcons (at Saints)- 10 Points

    160 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 2 INTs, 10 Rushing Yards.
    Cam Ward will struggle again.
