Week 8 at Los Angeles Rams
Jimmy Garoppolo had a decent game against the Chiefs last week, despite the lopsided outcome. He finished with 303 yards, two touchdowns, and a pick in a losing effort. Garoppolo isn’t known for prolific passing, but he now has three straight games with multiple touchdown passes and in a season where quarterbacks are a bit shaky week-to-week, he’s been a surprisingly viable streamer.
This week, Garoppolo has a tough matchup against Aaron Donald and the Rams. The Los Angeles defense ranks sixth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks, and held Garoppolo to 239 yards and a lone touchdown pass back in Week 4 – though that was admittedly impacted by game script, as the 49ers controlled the game throughout. Expect a boost from the addition of Christian McCaffrey for a full week of practice, and we have Garoppolo ranked right in quality streaming territory this week.
