Championship QB insights

[Z-DubbsParticipant 224]

I have Nix and Darnold. Although I have similar pt expectations, I think Nix will have a better stat line.

I am lucky enough to have started the Ravens D and Kelce vs. him having Pickens and Fairbairn so I have some cushion.

He has JJ. Do I hedge against a HUGE game by JJ and start Darnold? I normally don’t hedge, but a decent amount of money is on the line.

I would love any seasoned vet perspective. I just want to play smart vs. gut.

Agree Nix.

[Christopher WernerParticipant 15]

I would lean Nix.

Hmm, could go either way. Darnold is harder to sit tho if that makes sense. Doesn’t mean they dont have similar upside.

Yep… Nix has been a breathe of fresh air and has a better matchup. But Darnold has been rebuilt and has 2 awesome weapons

<be> yeah – I am just looking at what is more of an analytic type play – smart vs. gut. I like Nix but I think the smart play is Darnold since I have very little to worry about regarding JJ doing a jet sweep for a TD. (there – I said it – and watch JJ is going to take a jet sweep 70 yards…)

I lean Darnold. He has better weapons and it’s not really a playoff game environment like Cincy vs Denver.

I had Nix going for me in my consolation tournament where the bottom 4 teams play a round-robin for the 2025 1.01 / 2.10

Nix MIGHT have done enough for me to win it. Darnold will have to go along way to surpass Nix, but I also have JJ in my game so I am hoping

I went with Darnold. My bench points count though for total points. As long as he finishes out the game – I should be ok but man…gut told me to use Nix. Glad to have him as mg keeper for next year.
