From the article

Brissett has been a rather inefficient passer this year (5.4 AY/A), but he has still been a functional contributor (16.2 fantasy points per game, 1,600 yards passing, 10 TDs, 6 INTs with 26-80-1 rushing), and it's encouraging that he's No. 4 in designed rush share (9%) and goal-line rush share (38%, per our Fantasy Life Utilization Report). The Cardinals have a one-day edge over the Cowboys coming off Monday Night Football, and Brissett did well against them last year in their one matchup (24.8 fantasy points, 261 yards passing, 2 TDs, 0 INTs with 5-4-1 rushing).

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Brissett's rushing upside and Cowboys' injuries support No. 12 ranking in indoor spot.

Brissett is ranked No. 12 for Week 8 at Dallas and receives an indoor upgrade; he has been a functional contributor this year (16.2 fantasy points per game, 1,600 yards passing, 10 TDs, 6 INTs with 26-80-1 rushing) despite inefficient passing (5.4 AY/A), and he's No. 4 in designed rush share (9%) and goal-line rush share (38%); the Cardinals have a one-day edge off Monday Night Football, and Brissett performed well against Dallas last year (24.8 fantasy points, 261 yards passing, 2 TDs, 0 INTs with 5-4-1 rushing); the Cowboys are No. 30 in defensive pass DVOA (32.9%) and could be without LB Dee Winters (calf), SS Jalen Thompson (hamstring, IR), and S P.J. Locke (foot, IR).
