Who Should I Start? Andy Dalton or Teddy Bridgewater

Monday, October 27, 8:37 AM

Andy Dalton went 16-for-24 for 175 yards with no TD passes and three turnovers in the Carolina Panthers' 40-9 loss on Sunday. The 15-year veteran had a miserable day, as he was sacked seven times, threw an interception, and fumbled twice. Before this week's matchup against Buffalo, the Panthers' QBs had not been sacked more than three times in a single game. In Dalton's first outing as the starting QB this season, the Panthers registered a season low in points and only put up a garbage time TD in the fourth quarter. Head coach Dave Canales said after the game that Bryce Young was close to suiting up for the game vs. Buffalo, suggesting that Dalton may not start in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers. It could be another situation where Carolina falls behind, as Green Bay has scored 27-plus points in its last four games. If Young is the starter, he should only be used as a QB2 in superflex formats.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (illness) won't play in Saturday's preseason finale versus the Buffalo Bills. The signal-caller appeared in one game this preseason, throwing for 85 yards and two touchdowns off 6-for-11 passing in the meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bridgewater's absence should mean more work for Kyle Trask and rookie Connor Bazelak. However, as long as Baker Mayfield is healthy and on the field, the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart will remain mostly irrelevant for fantasy purposes.
