Jared Goff Fantasy Week 4 Start or Sit: Start Him in a Shootout Nobody Can StopSunday night in Carolina sets up beautifully for Goff, who lands fifth among quarterbacks in PFN’s Week 4 rankings. His own defense is allowing a league-high 31.7 points per game, so the aggression never lets up, and he has multiple touchdown passes, zero interceptions and a rising completion rate in every game, with 53.2% of those completions going to Amon-Ra St. Brown or Jahmyr Gibbs. Carolina’s recent defensive improvement came against Cooper Rush and Deshaun Watson, and Ben Johnson’s former employer is a long way from either of those offenses. If you think the Lions push for 30 points, he belongs inside your top 10.Should You Start or Sit Jared Goff in Week 4?The Lions are allowing a league-high 31.7 points per game, and while Goff doesn’t get the luxury of playing against his own guys on game day, he does have to keep up with the opponents, and that constant state of aggression is optimal for those of us riding his right arm.With multiple touchdown tosses, zero picks, and an increasing completion percentage in every game, this is the rare pocket-locked QB who we can count on. Ideally, Jameson Williams gets going, but if you’re going to tell me that 53.2% of his completions go to Amon-Ra St. Brown or Jahmyr Gibbs, I’ll tell you that I’m starting that QB every single week.SET YOUR LINEUPS:PFN’s Free Fantasy Football Start/Sit OptimizerThe Panthers’ defensive metrics look better in the two weeks since letting the Bears hang 59 on them, but those improvements came against Cooper Rush and Deshaun Watson.Yeah, I think it’s safe to say that Ben Johnson’s former employer is closer to his current one than either one of those offenses, and if you think the Lions push for 30 points on Sunday night, you’re ranking Goff inside of your top 10 the same way I am.Looking for analysis on every fantasy-relevant player beyond Goff in Week 4?
