Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Jalen Hurts

Wednesday, October 15, 8:27 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has played turnover-free football over his past two games and is primed for another solid showing against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. Cincinnati's defense has struggled this season, allowing the second-most passing yards and 11th-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Although he'll once again be without wide receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder), Rodgers has developed strong chemistry with DK Metcalf while also finding success targeting his tight ends and running backs. The 41-year-old is likely available in most single-QB formats but can be streamed as a solid option in this divisional clash.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 24 of his 33 pass attempts for 283 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during Thursday's Week 6 loss to the New York Giants. He also added seven carries for 13 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Hurts set a season high in passing yards but also threw his first turnover of the year -- both of which are somewhat expected when a low passing volume quarterback suddenly has to throw the ball 33 times. The Eagles have now lost two straight games, and some of Hurts' passing struggles could be a reason why. His schedule doesn't get any easier as he takes on a talented, well-coached Vikings defense in Week 7.
