BALLER MOVE: Start in Superflex Formats
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2
ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford had his best game of the season last week, throwing for 279 yards and four touchdowns. With Stafford getting back both Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua in that game, the veteran scored 25.8 fantasy points and finished as the QB5 on the week.

Assuming Nacua -- who injured his knee in practice on Thursday -- can suit up in Week 9, Stafford will be a strong QB2 option in Superflex formats this weekend. The Seahawks have allowed a top-14 fantasy quarterback in four of the past five week while giving up 10 passing touchdowns during those last five games.
As a result, Stafford could be a potential start in one-quarterback leagues as well. He is likely a solid play in 16-plus team leagues, especially if Nacua can play through the same knee injury that landed him on injured reserve for multiple weeks.
