Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Bryce Young

Saturday, December 13, 11:30 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is coming off his highest passing yardage total of the season in Week 14 and will take on the Miami Dolphins at home on Monday Night Football. Miami enters on a hot streak, having won four straight games while limiting opposing quarterbacks to the 10th-fewest fantasy points per contest over that span. That said, the Dolphins' run defense has been even more formidable than their pass defense. With Pittsburgh struggling to establish the ground game lately, the Steelers could be forced to lean more heavily on Rodgers' arm. Still, while this matchup is expected to be competitive, it is not projected to be particularly high-scoring, which caps the 41-year-old's fantasy upside. Fantasy managers should avoid relying on Rodgers as anything more than a low-end QB2 in superflex formats in Week 15.

Bryce Young led the Panthers to a shocking 31-28 upset win over the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13 before the bye. In that game, Young logged 22.5 fantasy points with three passing touchdowns. He also completed 15-of-20 attempts for 206 passing yards. Young is one of the more inconsistent QBs in the league this season. Through his last three games, he registered over 20 fantasy points twice. In his previous five starts, he finished with less than 11 fantasy points three times. Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints for the second time this year in Week 15. New Orleans ranks 11th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs this season. In Week 10 against the Saints, Young finished with 124 passing yards and 2.6 fantasy points, his lowest total in a single game this season. Due to his inconsistency throughout the year and his performance vs. the Saints in the last matchup, Young cannot be trusted to help teams in the opening round of the fantasy football playoffs.
