Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Dak Prescott

Saturday, October 25, 12:19 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has thrown 14 touchdown passes through his first six games of the season and appears set for another solid outing against the team that drafted him, the Green Bay Packers. A victory on Sunday night would make Rodgers just the fifth quarterback in NFL history to defeat all 32 teams. Though Green Bay's defense has shown flashes of excellence, it has been middle-of-the-pack against opposing signal-callers and far more effective against the run. If Pittsburgh is forced to lean on the passing game, Rodgers will have his full complement of weapons, with wide receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder) suiting up for the first time since Week 4. While the 41-year-old can't be considered a must-start, he offers plenty of upside in this revenge spot and can be viewed as a high-end QB2 with streaming appeal.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott played a clean game in his team's 44-22 Week 7 win over the Washington Commanders, completing 21 of 30 pass attempts for 264 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Prescott's Cowboys are now averaging 31.7 points per game so far this season. Through seven games, Prescott has thrown for 1,881 yards and 16 touchdowns. He will face perhaps his toughest test so far this season in Week 8 when Dallas travels to Denver to take on the Broncos. Still, Prescott is playing at a high level and will be difficult for fantasy managers to go away from, even in a difficult matchup.
