Week 11 of the NFL season gives us 15 games, with only the Saints and Colts having off for their bye. It’s the closest thing we’ve had to a full schedule since Week 7, when the Bills and Ravens were the only teams with a week off. For the quarterback position, it was one of the lowest-impact bye weeks of the season when we were drafting our teams, since we didn’t even know who would even be starting for the Saints and Colts. As it turns out, some fantasy managers may actually miss Daniel Jones, who has appeared in our top 10 quarterback rankings a few times this season, and if you’ve been playing Tyler Shough, then this list isn’t going to be much help for you.
Let’s take a look at who our top options are for this week, as we will have to get by without the aforementioned players on bye and injured players like Jaydin Daniels, as well as Jaxson Dart, who is expected to miss the game against Green Bay this week, with Jameis Winston slated to take the start.
Week 11 Quarterback Rankings
1) Josh Allen vs. Tampa Bay
Week 10 quarterback rankings
Last week was a stinker for Allen and the Bills, but guess what? It was just fine for our fantasy football teams as Allen was able to pile up 23+ fantasy points during his futile attempts to score on the mighty Dolphins defense. There’s a reason why we drafted him before anybody else in our leagues took a QB. He’s the epitome of consistency. He has now scored 20+ points in seven of his nine games after back-to-back strong performances, and he should be able to make it three in a row this weekend at home against the Buccaneers in what should be a competitive game. Tampa Bay is tough against the run but beatable through the air, so Allen will most likely need to keep throwing the ball for the Bills to pile up points. He remains the best option at QB in the game on a week-to-week basis.
2) Lamar Jackson vs. Cleveland

He has looked great since coming back, and it was nice to see him using his legs a bit more last week. The last time he faced this Cleveland defense, he lit them up for 4 touchdown passes and over 26 fantasy points. While I doubt that he repeats the passing touchdown numbers, he should be able to match the yardage and improve upon the 13 rushing yards he had back in week 2. Overall, we’ve seen Lamar running less this year, even before he sustained a hamstring injury, but the ability is still there when he needs it. With Myles Garrett breathing down his neck, he’s going to need it.
