PodcastWeek 1 Start/Sit: The Toughest Fantasy Football Lineup Decisions (Ep. 2185)September 12, 2026

From the episode

If you're going YOLO ceiling, then it's QJ in the matchup for me. Houston defense has shut down Josh Allen pretty good the last couple times.

Mentioned at 12:10 – 12:33

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

QJ offers ceiling upside but Houston's defense limits Josh Allen.

Johnson is the ceiling play in a start/sit decision versus DJ Moore if you are willing to go for upside; however, Houston's defense has shut down Josh Allen well in recent matchups, which creates concern for Johnson's ceiling in this specific game.
