BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1
ANALYSIS: Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has been on another level over the past few weeks. Goff is averaging 23.7 fantasy points per game across the last three games. In each of those contests, he threw for at least 280 yards and two touchdowns and finished as a top-10 fantasy quarterback.
As a result, he is a solid QB1 option in 12-plus team leagues and a must-start in Superflex formats in Week 8 against the Titans. Tennessee has allowed a top-12 fantasy quarterback in three of the past five games while giving up multiple passing touchdowns in back-to-back weeks.
Jared Goff in his last 10 quarters:
🎯 48/55
🎯 763 passing yards
🎯 7 total TDs
🎯 0 INTs

The only problem with starting Goff in this game is that a potential blowout could be in store. The Lions are 11-point favorites on Sunday, so the team might not need to rely on him for most of the contest. Still, given how he has thrown the ball recently, he should be started in most 12-plus team leagues this weekend.
