Brian Hoyer (QB, CHI) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Stream in Two-Quarterback Leagues

OWNED IN: 5% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: In two starts for the Bears, Brian Hoyer has been better than what anyone could have hoped for, completing 68.23% of his passes for a combined 619 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions.

For his next act, Hoyer and the Bears get to take on the Colts in the friendly confines of Lucas Oil Stadium. Indianapolis is surrendering 277 passing yards per game, good enough for 24th in the league, and yielded more than 25 points to Blake Bortles this past weekend in London. The Chicago offense under Hoyer has been interesting, with targets being spread out much more than they were with Jay Cutler under center. This bodes well against a Colts defense that has been hits by the injury bug. Start Hoyer with confidence as a QB2 this week.
