Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Bryce Young

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown had a subdued performance in Sunday night's 22-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers, recording just one reception for 10 yards. However, Brown's impact extended beyond the stat sheet as his crucial downfield blocking played a significant role in Dallas Goedert's highlight-reel touchdown catch and run. With the Eagles leaning heavily on their running game and defense, Brown's services as a primary playmaker were not needed against Green Bay. Nevertheless, his presence on the field commands defensive attention and keeps opposing secondaries honest. As the Eagles prepare to host the winner of Minnesota Vikings/Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round, Brown remains a formidable weapon capable of making game-changing plays when called upon.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young went 25-for-34 with 251 yards and three scores during their overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons. He added 24 yards and two touchdowns on five rushing attempts. This was his best performance of his young NFL career. After having a quiet first quarter, Young was able to punch in a five-yard score with his legs and threw a 33-yard TD pass to Miles Sanders in the second frame. In the third quarter, he found tight end Tommy Tremble and wide receiver David Moore on a 21-yard and nine-yard TD pass respectively. Then in the fourth quarter, Young tallied his second rushing score of the afternoon, this time from ten yards out. The former first-overall pick would then lead the Panthers to a game-winning drive in overtime which was capped off by a Miles Sanders TD run. Despite his struggles last season and at the start of this season, Young has begun to turn the corner. During Weeks 12 through 17, Young averaged a solid 22.0 PPR points per game and will carry some solid momentum into the offseason.
