Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Najee Harris

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.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris handled six carries for 17 yards and came down with all three of his targets for 41 receiving yards in a Wild Card Round loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers had very little success on the ground throughout the contest and were forced to lean on the passing game after trailing 21-0 at halftime. Harris contributed in the third quarter as he turned short completions into nine, 21, and 11-yard gains. Although his play this season was not necessarily consistent for fantasy purposes, Harris turned in a fourth-straight campaign with at least 1,000 rushing yards. Because Pittsburgh declined to pick up his fifth-year option in 2024, the 26-year-old will search for a new deal and potentially a new home this offseason.
