It\u2019s been brutal so far. Not only has Daniel Jones not been a good fantasy quarterback so far, but he\u2019s also been really bad in real life as well. He\u2019s had a rough schedule to this point having had to face the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/nfl-teams\/steelers\/\" target=\"_self\">Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/nfl-teams\/bears\/\" target=\"_self\">Chicago Bears<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/nfl-teams\/49ers\/\" target=\"_self\">San Francisco 49ers<\/a>, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/nfl-teams\/rams\/\" target=\"_self\">Los Angeles Rams<\/a> so far, but he\u2019s also looked worse than I expected he would. Luckily for Jones, the schedule gets much easier and that starts this week against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/nfl-teams\/cowboys\/\" target=\"_self\">Dallas Cowboys<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>This is a game in which Daniel Jones should be able to thrive. The Cowboys are playing at the fastest pace in the NFL so far and should be able to turn this into a carnival. Both teams have terrible defenses and the game is in a dome. Game script projects for Jones and the Giants to be chasing points as well. All of this combined should bode well for Jones as a fantasy option this week.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">How the hell did Daniel Jones get out of this <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hvOrbC63sL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/hvOrbC63sL<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/barstoolsports\/status\/1312886797656096772?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 4, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Honorable Mentions \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/2020\/07\/30\/gardner-minshew-fantasy-football-preview\/\" target=\"_self\">Gardner Minshew<\/a><\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0(JAX\u00a0\u2013 50%) @ HOU,<strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/B\/BridTe00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Teddy Bridgewater<\/a> <\/strong>(CAR\u00a0\u2013 47%) @ ATL<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Running Back \u2013\u00a0Justin Jackson\u00a0(LAC \u2013 37%) @ NO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s not get it twisted, Jackson was extremely good in 2019.
