What our analysts say

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jacoby Brissett (ARI QB), our QB26 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at DAL, projecting 8.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 8.5 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. The projection sits about 50% under what a startable QB returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. On the road against DAL, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.

Tina's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Jacoby Brissett (ARI QB), our QB26 this week for Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season at DAL, projecting 8.5 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 8.5 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. He grades 50% below the average weekly QB number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. DAL is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
