Week 15 Fantasy Football Flex Rankings for Superflex, 2-QB leagues

As the 2020 NFL season goes along, the quarterback play just continues to get better, and fantasy owners are reaping the rewards of what is the deepest position in fantasy football. With all 32 teams in action, 23 quarterbacks ended up being top-50 scorers on the week, according to fantasydata.com. That's nearly 75 percent of the quarterbacks who started and accounted for 46 percent of the top-50 players. That continues to prove the well-known thesis that QBs always have high floors and will be productive even when they have an off day. It's also why our Week 15 fantasy Superflex rankings value QBs highly.

Simply put, there isn't any reason to start a non-quarterback in your Superflex spot. Bye weeks are now over, so all 32 starting QBs are available to be played. Unless you have multiple injuries at the position like Drew Brees (ribs) or Matthew Stafford (ribs), you need to fire up two QBs. They simply give your lineup a sky-high floor and improve your ceiling far more than any other RB or WR could in that Superflex spot.

It's fair to be apprehensive of starting a guy like Sam Darnold against an elite Rams defense. The same can be said when looking at Ryan Finley's matchup with the Steelers. Still, we have seen teams put up solid numbers on these defenses at times, and if these games turn into blowouts, there is always a possibility for garbage-time production. Very rarely will you see a quarterback completely and utterly fail, and all you need to get from them to have them pay off is one TD. That often gets a QB into double digits when factoring in other yardage totals from the day.

WEEK 15 FANTASY: Sleepers | Busts | Start 'em, sit 'em

So, yes, being skeptical of Darnold, Finley, Gardner Minshew, and Tua Tagovailoa in tough matchups is entirely fair, but don't start them over boom-or-bust flex options. If you have many high-volume RBs who are playing well, then you can bench one of these players. That said, if you're thinking about playing David Johnson, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Tee Higgins, or Kareem Hunt over them in tough matchups, those would qualify as risks, as they simply don't have the same floors of these types of quarterbacks in shaky matchups.
