I have a lot of respect for one of Pat McAfee’s favorite quarterbacks. Wentz works his butt off to make plays with his sprained ankles and his arm, and although he might put himself in harm’s way as often as Travis Pastrana and could suffer another season-ending injury sooner rather than later. Using him now while he is healthy and productive is a sneaky smart fantasy play.
Wentz has thrown for 630 yards and four touchdowns over Indy’s past two contests and has really started to gel with an underrated Colts receiving corps. Zach Pascal catches the touchdown tosses, Michael Pittman Jr. catches the passes between the 20s, and Nyheim Hines and Jonathan Taylor can both catch passes out of the backfield and turn them into long gainers. Plus Wentz has a decent tight end twosome with Mo Alie-Cox and Jack Doyle. As long as Wentz does not get himself dinged against a Houston defense that only has eight sacks in five games, he should throw for 250-275 and two-to-three TDs.
