Who Should I Start? Andy Dalton or Jacoby Brissett

Carolina Panthers veteran quarterback Andy Dalton (thumb) is active for the Week 9 contest against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday and will serve as the backup to Bryce Young, who is returning from a one-game absence due to an ankle sprain, according to Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer. The 38-year-old Dalton made his first start of the year in place of the injured Young last weekend and fell flat in the blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills, going 16-for-24 passing for 175 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception. The Red Rifle sustained a broken right thumb in the process, which limited him in practice this week. Dalton is apparently good to go as the backup this weekend, though, so third-stringer Mike White will be a healthy scratch.

The Arizona Cardinals were blown out on the road 44-22 by the division-rival Seattle Seahawks in Week 10, but veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett was able to rack up yardage and throw two more touchdowns for fantasy managers in two-QB leagues on Sunday. Brissett finished the day 22-for-44 passing for 258 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions while adding four carries for an additional 31 yards on the ground. The 32-year-old was sacked five times for a loss of 52 yards. Seattle went up 35-0 in the first half, so all of Brissett's fantasy production on Sunday was basically in garbage time. Brissett's 258 passing yards were actually his fewest in his four starts with Kyler Murray (foot) injured, but he's now thrown eight touchdowns and only one pick in his time as Arizona's starter. He'll be in play as a QB2 again in another divisional matchup in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. With Murray now on Injured Reserve, Brissett is guaranteed to make at least three more starts.
