Fantasy Football Week 2 Rankings – Quarterbacks

To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy QB rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a Traditional scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

Josh Allen, QB, Bills (vs. Raiders)- 27 Points
290 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 40 Rushing Yards, 1 TD.

This is a much easier matchup for Josh Allen.

Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs (at Jaguars)- 25 Points
310 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 40 Rushing Yards.

The Jaguars had no answers for Patrick Mahomes in two matchups last year.

Jalen Hurts, QB, Eagles (vs. Vikings)- 25 Points
290 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 60 Rushing Yards.

Jalen Hurts will bounce back against one of the worst defenses in the NFL.

Justin Herbert, QB, Chargers (at Titans)- 24 Points
310 Passing Yards, 3 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.

The Titans have a pass-funnel offense, so Justin Herbert will have a great game.

Justin Fields, QB, Bears (at Buccaneers)- 22 Points
230 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 100 Rushing Yards.

The Justin Fields magic should continue in an easier matchup.

Trevor Lawrence, QB, Jaguars (vs. Chiefs)- 22 Points
320 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 10 Rushing Yards.

Trevor Lawrence’s matchup will be much easier if Chris Jones is out.

Lamar Jackson, QB, Ravens (at Bengals)- 21 Points
240 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 60 Rushing Yards.

Lamar Jackson had a sloppy performance in Week 1, but perhaps he was looking ahead to this matchup.

Daniel Jones, QB, Giants (at Cardinals)- 19 Points
280 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 50 Rushing Yards.

Daniel Jones will bounce back in a much easier matchup.

Joe Burrow, QB, Bengals (vs. Ravens)- 18 Points
260 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Joe Burrow should be healthier this week, so he’ll rebound off a loss.

Anthony Richardson, QB, Colts (at Texans)- 18 Points
190 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 90 Rushing Yards.

Anthony Richardson has a low floor, but he possesses Justin Fields-type upside.

Jared Goff, QB, Lions (vs. Seahawks)- 18 Points
270 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs.

Jared Goff will be better in his dome against a poor defense.

Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Dolphins (at Patriots)- 17 Points
260 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.

Tua Tagovailoa looks unstoppable. Bill Belichick has never had an answer for him.

Brock Purdy, QB, 49ers (at Rams)- 16 Points
290 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 10 Rushing Yards.

Brock Purdy had a great performance in Week 1, and yet this is an easier matchup.

Kirk Cousins, QB, Vikings (at Eagles)- 16 Points
290 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT.

There could be lots of garbage-time opportunities for Kirk Cousins this week.

Russell Wilson, QB, Broncos (vs. Redskins)- 15 Points
270 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 30 Rushing Yards.

Russell Wilson couldn’t take advantage of an easier matchup last week, so it’s tough to have any faith in him.

Deshaun Watson, QB, Browns (at Steelers)- 15 Points
250 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 40 Rushing Yards.

I wouldn’t expect Deshaun Watson to perform like Brock Purdy did last week.

Baker Mayfield, QB, Bucs (vs. Bears)- 15 Points
280 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD.

Dak Prescott, QB, Cowboys (vs. Jets)- 15 Points
220 Passing Yards, 2 Pass TDs, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.

Dak Prescott will have to do more this week, but he’ll also have a much tougher matchup.

Sam Howell, QB, Redskins (at Broncos)- 15 Points
250 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 30 Rushing Yards.

Sam Howell was a disappointment last week, and yet, he wasn’t too bad fantasy-wise.

Geno Smith, QB, Seahawks (at Lions)- 15 Points
290 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Geno Smith could get some garbage time against the Lions.

Ryan Tannehill, QB, Titans (vs. Chargers)- 15 Points
290 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Jordan Love, QB, Packers (at Falcons)- 14 Points
260 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Believe it or not, this is a tougher matchup than the Week 1 battle versus the Bears.

Mac Jones, QB, Patriots (vs. Dolphins)- 14 Points
250 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Derek Carr, QB, Saints (at Panthers)- 14 Points
280 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.

Pass protection was a big issue for Derek Carr in Week 1.

Kenny Pickett, QB, Steelers (vs. Browns)- 14 Points
250 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Kenny Pickett faces a defense that just shut down Joe Burrow.

C.J. Stroud, QB, Texans (vs. Colts)- 14 Points
240 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 30 Rushing Yards.

C.J. Stroud will be better this week against a softer opponent.

Desmond Ridder, QB, Falcons (vs. Packers)- 13 Points
230 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

Matthew Stafford, QB, Rams (vs. 49ers)- 13 Points
280 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT.

Enjoy Matthew Stafford while he’s healthy … but not in this matchup.

Zach Wilson, QB, Jets (at Cowboys)- 12 Points
240 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 10 Rushing Yards.

Bryce Young, QB, Panthers (vs. Saints)- 12 Points
200 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT, 20 Rushing Yards.

It’s hard to trust Bryce Young with his current supporting cast.

Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Raiders (at Bills)- 12 Points
190 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 10 Rushing Yards.

Josh Dobbs, QB, Cardinals (vs. Giants)- 10 Points
210 Passing Yards, 1 Pass TD, 1 INT.

Aaron Rodgers, QB, Jets (at Cowboys)- 0 Points

Tyler Huntley, QB, Ravens (at Bengals)- 0 Points

Anthony Brown, QB, Ravens (at Bengals)- 0 Points

Jacoby Brissett, QB, Redskins (at Broncos)- 0 Points
