Can these QBs get it done?

So I've been able to stream Dalton and Goff to a 7-1 record this season. Am I in trouble for playoffs starting these two or should I just roll with them? I don't want to give up too much for a QB right now

Well, you've been able to go 7-1 with them, and I'm assuming they're not the reason you've done well. As long as the rest of your team continues to produce, I don't see why they wouldn't be good enough. I'd be more worried about what's going to happen with Zeke, because losing him can really crush your chances.

I am worried about Zeke, but somewhat addressed that by grabbing Lamar Miller for cheap.

I m just wondering if going after a better QB is a smart way to bridge the gap between Zeke and Miller.

Depends on who's available and what it would cost to get them, but never a bad idea trying to upgrade players. Go after teams who aren't competing and have older guys like Brady, Rivers, Brees who you might be able to get cheap.

Neither have great playoff matchups. I'd probably look to add a cheap vet, but I wouldn't pay anything of consequence until I heard the Zeke news.

Agreed on the QB discussion. You should pick up a vet, maybe someone from a warm-weather or dome team if you can find them (18 teams is a lot of teams). Weather is not pretty in December for either of those two QBs.

Agreed on the Zeke conversations, you need to protect. I did Morris as my priority vs McFadden, but it's a toss-up.

Again, 18 teams is a lot of teams. Who are some of the top players at your waiver wire? I think you could drop (or trade) the LAR DST to get a player if needed.

First, it's a 12 team league with 18 roster spots (that's changing this off season).
I addressed the Zeke situation already by adding Miller. I have a free bench spot after this week as I'm holding two defenses(I want to keep the Rams D).
I have been trying to upgrade my QB for a few weeks, but sitting at 7-1, the other owners are asking for an overpay to do it.
