Who Should I Start? Baker Mayfield or Kyler Murray

Monday, January 13, 12:10 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 15 of 18 pass attempts for 185 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's playoff loss to the Washington Commanders. He also took one sack and rushed for 23 yards. It was an uncharacteristically quiet showing for Mayfield, who hadn't completed fewer than 18 passes since Week 2 of the regular season. With that said, fantasy managers and bettors have to be pleased with his high completion rate and overall clean performance as he didn't turn the ball over. Mayfield finished the 2024 campaign with the NFC's most passing touchdowns, but he also led the whole league in interceptions. His high passing output keeps him in the mid-range QB1 conversation for 2025 fantasy football.

During a trip to South Korea, where he ran a QB clinic, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray expressed his excitement for the team and their trajectory in 2025. "I'm looking forward to this next season," said Murray. "I think, as an organization, we're on the up and up, and I'm looking forward to it." Murray is coming off his first full season since 2020, tossing 3,851 yards and 21 touchdowns on a 68.8% completion percentage. However, Arizona has made just one playoff appearance during his tenure -- a 2021 loss to their division-rival Los Angeles Rams in the wild-card round -- and the 27-year-old understands it's partly on his shoulders. When asked how far Arizona is from a Super Bowl, Murray responded, "Not far at all. I think anything's possible." The Cardinals made just one big-ticket signing thus far in pass-rusher Josh Sweat, but they'll need to surround the Oklahoma product with a few more weapons as they've finished above .500 just once since selecting him first overall in 2019.
