Who Should I Start? Baker Mayfield or Bryce Young

Friday, November 14, 5:29 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield is coming off a solid bounce back performance against the New England Patriots last weekend. Mayfield completed 28-of-43 passing attempts for 273 yards with three touchdowns and zero interceptions in the loss. The Bucs remain shorthanded on offense, but that hasn't stopped Mayfield from posting strong numbers. This is a pass-heavy offense that continues to find ways to get it down despite the injuries. Fantasy managers should continue plugging in Mayfield as a QB1 for the upcoming matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

Bryce Young is not worth consideration for fantasy lineups in Week 11. The Carolina QB logged under five Fantasy Points Per Game and did not throw any passing touchdowns in Weeks 9 and 10. This season, Young has averaged 11.6 Fantasy Points Per Game and registered over 20 points only once. Fantasy players should not expect an adequate performance out of Young against the Atlanta Falcons. In Week 3 against Atlanta, Young finished with 121 passing yards, scored one rushing TD, and earned just 11.6 fantasy points. Leading up to Week 11, Atlanta ranks seventh in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs. The Falcons have a vulnerable run defense, allowing 26.59 Fantasy Points Per Game, which ranks 29th in the league to RBs this season. Expect Carolina to rely on their running game in Week 11 to stay competitive. Fantasy players should leave Young reserved for Week 11. He should only be considered in superflex leagues if your regular QB2 is out and there are no options available otherwise.
