When the 2021 fantasy football season began, we had an embarrassment of riches when it came to quarterback play. Now it’s just an embarrassment.
In each of the first eight weeks of the season, no fewer than 10 quarterbacks scored at least 20 fantasy points. There haven’t been 10 QBs hitting the 20 mark in any week since then. In Week 10, only three QBs scored at least 20.
It’s never good news for the NFL when quarterback play is subpar, but it’s even worse for fantasy managers. If your QB1 is Josh Allen or Jalen Hurts or Dak Prescott, you’re mostly fine — no tough lineup decisions, and the results are good more often than not — but figuring out which quarterbacks to start is no longer a no-brainer.
