STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Smith projects as middling QB2 despite strong underlying stats; limited by game script last week.

Smith is QB23 in fantasy points per game; his only massively successful fantasy outing was against the Lions' woeful secondary. Last week he had a horrible box score, but the Jets only had the ball for 17:15 with just 15 passing attempts due to the Bears controlling the clock. However, Smith has actually been playing quite well statistically: among 29 qualifying passers, he ranks eighth in yards per attempt, tenth in passing success rate, 12th in highly accurate throw rate, and first in catchable target rate. The source projects him as a middling QB2 this week. Cleveland's pass defense has allowed the 13th-fewest EPA per dropback, 14th-lowest passing success rate, and ninth-lowest CPOE.
