Pair of Giants, 49ers with favorable matchups

First of all, congratulations to Daniel Jones! He threw a touchdown pass. In his home stadium no less. For most rookie quarterbacks in the NFL, that’s not a problem. Most starting quarterbacks in the NFL aren’t Daniel Jones.

Ultimately, Mr. Dimes had his best fantasy day of the season last week, despite posting his second-lowest passing yardage total of the year. It’s amazing what a rushed production can do.

This week, Jones and the G-Men travel to Germany to take on a Panthers team riding high after its second win of the season. That doesn’t mean this isn’t still a good match. Carolina’s numbers against fantasy quarterbacks have improved slightly as the season has progressed. That means it’s gone from terrible to mere not good. The Panthers rank 27th against the pass with 18 surrendered touchdowns and just three interceptions. Four quarterbacks have had top 12 weekly finishes against this defense over the past six weeks. Jones won’t have much appeal in one-QB leagues, but is almost a must-start in two-QB formats.
