QB12: Jared Goff (vs. MIN). Boring, old, pocket passer Jared Goff is the QB2 in fantasy points per game this season. And yet, we've only seen the veteran crack 300 yards once in six tries against Brian Flores and company... now faces the possibility of having a banged-up safety blanket depending on the final status of Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle)... these Vikings are getting it at a 47.6 percent rate that also includes an absurd 68.4 percent blitz rate on pass plays.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

QB2 in PPG but limited vs. Vikings; 1 of 6 games over 300 yards; pressure concerns with St. Brown banged up.

The source ranks Jared Goff QB12 for Week 8 vs. Minnesota. While Goff is the QB2 in fantasy points per game this season, the source expresses concern about his matchup: he has only cracked 300 yards once in six tries against Brian Flores' Vikings and hasn't thrown for three touchdowns in any of those games. Goff now faces the possibility of having a banged-up safety blanket depending on the final status of Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle). The source notes Goff isn't the world's best QB under pressure, and the Vikings are getting pressure at a 47.6 percent rate with an absurd 68.4 percent blitz rate on pass plays—both marks rank first by easy margins since at least 2020. The source suggests it's probably not the week to expect too many fireworks from this crew.
