Thursday Night Football means the first start/sit decisions of the week.
Whether you're sitting comfortable atop your league's standings or fighting for a playoff chance, these decisions are important as ever. That's why I outline the initial version of my weekly fantasy football rankings into tiers — so you can start making these calls at every position.
These rankings will undoubtedly change before Sunday's games kickoff, so be sure to check my updated tiers on Saturday. And, as always, you can see my real-time rankings at any point here.

Fantasy QB Rankings & Tiers
Tier 1
Josh Allen (vs. MIA)
Tier 2
Patrick Mahomes (vs. NYG)
Kyler Murray (vs. GB)
Jalen Hurts (@ DET)
Tier 3
Matthew Stafford (@ HOU)
Dak Prescott (@ MIN)

Tier 5
Matt Ryan (vs. CAR)

Rodgers opened the week as my QB9, but now that Davante Adams and Allen Lazard are expected to miss, Rodgers is closer to a high-end QB2 option.
