Fantasy Football Quarterback Streaming Week 11: Let Russ Cook

Nov 12, 2024

There weren’t a ton of juicy stat lines from quarterbacks in Week 10. Only three players threw for at least 300 yards. On the bright side, there were 10 quarterbacks who had multiple touchdowns passes, including three players with at least three passing touchdowns.

There will be four teams on a bye during Week 11, including the Cardinals and Buccaneers. That means that fantasy managers who have benefited from having Kyler Murray or Baker Mayfield on their squad might need to hit the waiver wire for a replacement.

For streaming purposes, 4for4’s Schedule-Adjusted Fantasy Points Allowed (aFPA) is a metric we rely heavily on to determine weekly matchup strength. As the season progresses and more data is available, aFPA becomes more and more reliable, using rolling 10-week data. Targets and efficiency metrics are also considered when choosing weekly streamers.

Week 10 Recap

Our biggest hit of Week 10 was Russell Wilson, who was one of the three quarterbacks who had at least three touchdown passes. While he only threw for 195 yards and completed just 50.0% of his pass attempts, the three scores helped him finish as QB10. He has posted at least two touchdown passes in two of three games since taking over as the Steelers starting quarterback.

There were no real flops last week as all four streamers finished inside the top 16 at the position. Daniel Jones didn’t record a touchdown pass again for the Giants in a disappointing loss to the Panthers, but his rushing touchdown helped him finish as QB13. The Giants are on a bye in Week 11, and with how poorly Jones has performed for much of the season, it’s possible that he doesn’t return from the bye with his starting job still in hand.

Russell Wilson (Steelers) vs. Ravens

Wilson has six passing touchdowns over three games as a starter. Justin Fields only had five passing touchdowns across his six starts, so Wilson has certainly provided a boost to the Steelers passing attack. Fields averaged 6.9 yards per pass attempt, while Wilson averaged 8.7 yards per pass attempt.

The Steelers like to run the ball, but they might be forced to throw more than usual in Week 11 to keep up with a Ravens offense that is averaging 31.8 points per game. The Ravens don’t have a great secondary, so with teams needing to throw a lot against them, the result has been the Ravens being ranked 30th in aFPA to quarterbacks. Another top-10 finish could be in the cards for Wilson based on this matchup.
