Week 8 fantasy football rankings: Lamar Jackson leads Ravens' resurgence

2024-12-24 10:14:32 source: category:Finance

There's no greater weapon in fantasy football than a running quarterback. The Ravens' Lamar Jackson reinforced that axiom last Sunday by accounting for four total touchdowns − three through the air and one on the ground − on his way to being the week's QB1. He has another good matchup this week against the Arizona Cardinals, who allow the fifth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks on the season.

START OR SIT? 15 tough lineup calls for Week 8

Fantasy football rankings for Week 8 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.

Rankings are compiled by Daniel Dobish, TheHuddle.com.
