Fantasy Football Week 8 PPR Cheat Sheet: Caleb Williams Takes on the Patriots, Starting/Sitting Tips for Every Game

Your fantasy football season can hinge on a single roster decision, and Week 8 is shaping up to be another tough week for managers trying to separate reliable starters from potential disappointments. With four teams out, injuries continuing to reshape depth charts, and several big-name players struggling to live up to expectations, finding the right options for your roster could be the difference between a win and a frustrating loss.

That’s where Dave Richard’s Week 8 PPR Cheat Sheet comes in. With detailed match analysis and confidence scores for each player involved, you’ll have the information you need to make tough start/sit decisions, identify favorable opportunities, and give yourself the best chance of coming away with a victory.

What do the numbers mean? All weekly analysis, from data points to matchup prospects to game-play predictions, is represented by a number on a confidence scale of 1 to 10. The higher the number next to a player’s name, the more convinced I am that you should start him. The numbers are not projections but confidence scores to help you decide who to start with. All players affected for this week are listed, so if you don’t see a player’s name, don’t start it.

To find a specific drive, use your search function (CTRL-F on PC and Command-F on Mac). If none of these options are possible or you are using a mobile device, you can search by typing the name in the URL bar or scrolling down by game. If you are always I’m not sure, just send Dave a note (@DaveRichard), and he will take a look, time permitting. Don’t forget to use the hashtag #AskFFT!
