Jimmy G. leads trio of hot QBs

- Tony Holm, FantasySha­rks.com

These players saw their fantasy values increase or decrease most based on their performanc­es in Week 11:

Sizzlers

QB Jimmy Garoppolo, San Francisco 49ers: While Garoppolo had some ill-timed passes and a pair of costly intercepti­ons, he also threw for 424 yards and four TDs.

QB Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals: Taking Murray No. 1 overall looks like a smart move. He can shuffle through his reads and run with devastatin­g effectiveness.

QB Jeff Driskel, Detroit Lions: With Matthew Stafford likely out for an extended period, Driskel has thrown for over 200 yards in consecutiv­e starts. He accounted for three scores (two passing, one rushing) against Dallas.

WR John Brown, Buffalo Bills: Brown has consistent­ly delivered for the Bills; he’s coming off an impressive nine receptions for 137 yards and two touchdowns at Miami.

WR D.J. Chark, Jacksonvil­le Jaguars: Quarterbac­k Nick Foles favored Dede Westbrook earlier in the season, but fears Chark would suffer with Foles’ return were unfounded. He was targeted 15 times and scored a pair of touchdowns.

Fizzlers

RB James Conner, Pittsburgh Steelers: Conner had to leave early after aggravatin­g his AC joint injury and is again questionab­le to suit up this week.

RB Ronald Jones, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Game script forced the Bucs to go the air early and often. As a result, Jones rushed just four times for 13 yards.

WR Allen Robinson, Chicago Bears: Robinson seems to have disappeare­d in recent weeks, but it’s probably more a testament to the Bears’ overall offensive struggles. His latest effort: four catches for 15 yards.

WR Tyler Boyd, Cincinnati Bengals: Despite an injury-ravaged receiving corps, Boyd caught just one of his three targets for no yards. QB Ryan Finley needs more time to throw than he is getting.

WR Zach Pascal, Indianapol­is Colts: Pascal has had some flashes with T.Y. Hilton out, but he’s struggled overall. He hauled in just two receptions for 17 yards versus Jacksonvil­le.
