Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Luke McCaffrey

Friday, October 17, 12:39 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 23 of his 34 pass attempts for 249 yards, four touchdowns, and two interceptions during Thursday's Week 7 loss against the Cincinnati Bengals. He also rushed for six yards and didn't take a sack. The four touchdowns worked wonders as Rodgers attempted to mount a late comeback on national television, but you could also argue that his two interceptions were the difference between a win and a loss in Cincinnati. One of the two turnovers wasn't exactly Rodgers' fault as his sideline pass was ripped out of DK Metcalf's hands, but the other came on an overthrown pass that the veteran quarterback would have loved to get back. With that being said, fantasy managers won't gripe too much about the two turnovers, as his four touchdowns were more than enough to boost his point total. He's a solid mid-range QB2 heading into Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Luke McCaffrey will serve as the No. 1 wideout for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. The Commanders will be without Terry McLaurin (quad), Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel), and Noah Brown (groin) for this Week 7 contest. McCaffrey will serve as the top option against the Cowboys defense that is without starting defensive back Trevon Diggs (concussion) for this game. McCaffrey has been quiet this season, but could offer flex value for needy fantasy managers. The Commanders are limited on options, so McCaffrey should see plenty of opportunities.
