10 QB sleepers to target for fantasy football 2021 Week 8
By Brad Weiss
8. Taylor Heinicke at Denver
The Denver Broncos were considered one of the better teams in the NFL early on, as they got out to a 3-0 start to the season, albeit against terrible opposition. On Sunday, the Broncos will be taking on another struggling team in the Washington Football Team, but the results will be different this time around.
Taylor Heinicke may not be the long-term solution in Washington, but he is a guy who can put up numbers in bunches at times, and I believe that will be the case in this one. Despite going on the road and playing Denver, the Washington Football Team should win on Sunday, and Heinicke is going to be a big reason why.
7. Ben Roethlisberger at Cleveland
The Pittsburgh Steelers go into Cleveland for an AFC North battle against the Cleveland Browns, who are banged up on both sides of the ball. In this matchup, look for a big game from Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who is playing better football as of late.
Big Ben has plenty of experience against this Cleveland team and will have no problem going on the road in this one. Look for the Steelers to come away with the victory on the road, and Big Ben to throw for over 300 yards against a depleted Browns defense.
