Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Drake Maye

Friday, November 7, 10:55 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been steady this season, ranking fourth among all signal-callers in passing touchdowns heading into a Week 10 away matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers surrender the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and could pose Rodgers' toughest challenge yet. On the other side, however, Pittsburgh's defense has been inconsistent, allowing over 30 points in half of its games. If Los Angeles can keep rolling offensively, Rodgers should see enough passing volume to deliver for fantasy purposes. He's not the safest streaming option this week, but he can be started in a pinch and viewed as a low-end QB2 on Sunday night.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has been one of the best storylines this season, completing more than 75 percent of his passes for 2,026 yards, 15 touchdowns, and three interceptions. He also has 250 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. The UNC product has taken an extraordinary leap in his second pro season, leading the Patriots to a 6-2 record while entering his name into the MVP race. From a fantasy perspective, Maye is the overall QB2 and has established himself as a must-start player every week, regardless of matchup. That remains the case in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons. Even though Atlanta has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, Maye should capitalize on a home matchup against a struggling Falcons squad. After all, Atlanta surrendered four touchdowns to Tua Tagovailoa last week. Maye is a strong, mid-range QB1 option once again.
