The struggling Jets offense gets the target-worthy Dolphins in Week 9. New York is a solid road favorite but with a low Vegas total. Is this a target matchup to find a passing game stack or roll with LeVeon Bell this week despite the Jets' recent fade from productivity on offense? Whom are your favorite Jets plays in Week 9 and why are you targeting them or staying away?

Both of these teams are so bad, it’s hard to imagine a sudden offensive explosion. Making matters worse, Bell is the third highest-priced running back on the main slate (DraftKings). Perhaps he’s worth a few shares if his price keeps his ownership down in tournaments. But otherwise, this feels like a “matchup trap” where the only reason we’re considering this situation is because of defense vs. position fantasy points. Robby Anderson is worth a few tournament shares to save salary and hope he connects on a few big plays.

I don’t mind the Sam Darnold, LeVeon Bell, and Jets defense in this game as a viable tournament stack. The Dolphins clearly don’t want to win any football games at this stage of the season and the Jets have talent but have had a season full of misfortune so far. If there ever was a week to stack the Jets offense this would be the week. I can see the Darnold to Bell stack going off and with the QB/RB combo it might go over looked as far as ownership goes. Bell has potential to lead the team in receptions each week and this is the perfect week for him to sneak into the endzone once or twice. As far as the Jets defense goes it is simple, you just play defenses against the Dolphins each week no matter the matchup.

Yes, the Jets are absolutely a target of mine this week because the lowly Dolphins are averaging a league-worst 34 points per game against on defense. Part of that is skewed by an opening-round game against the Ravens where they let up 59 points, however, they have given up at least 27 points in six of their seven games. The Dolphins also have three games where they've allowed both a 100+ yard runner and receiver in the same game.

On the season, Miami has allowed 27.3 points per game to opposing quarterbacks, 23.7 points per game to opposing running backs, and a whoppping 31.6 points per game to wide receivers and tight ends (25.9 and 5.7 ppg, respectively).

I'm not interested in Darnold, at all, in cash or GPP formats. His "I'm seeing ghosts" microphone miscue was alarming, and I'll need to see him play with composure and confidence before committing capital to his efforts. Le'Veon Bell rates as an option because of the matchup. If not now, when? But he sits 9th in both FD and DK rankings, for me, so he's not a mandatory part of a lineup build. I like Robby Anderson as a GPP differentiator, but he's too volatile for cash lineups.

Justin Howe

LeVeon Bell makes all the sense in the world due to his usage. There's not a game script I can think of that doesn't get him 20+ touches, and the matchup tells us to boost his efficiency projections. I'm almost always overweight on Robby Anderson, which may not even be possible this week. He'll draw tons of exposure against the Xavier Howard-less Dolphins, who weren't any good even with Xavien Howard.

If I put together 100 lineups, I'll stack Darnold-Anderson (running it back with Preston Williams or DeVante Parker) in maybe 8 of them. Darnold is roughly 23 years old and far from hopeless. He's got a live arm and an aggressive mindset, and I don't see the Dolphins putting up much of a fight.
