Who Should I Start? Brian Robinson Jr. or C.J. Stroud

Sunday, December 22, 4:48 PM

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. tallied only 24 yards on 10 attempts during their victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. He caught two of his three targets for 17 yards. While Robinson dominated the work in the backfield, he was not given as many attempts as he usually sees with the Commanders trailing throughout the afternoon. This caused quarterback Jayden Daniels to attempt a hefty 39 passing attempts. His 24 rushing yards was his lowest total in a single game this season. Fantasy managers should not be overly concerned with Robinson heading into Week 17, as the No. 2 option behind him, Jeremy McNichols, logged only two rushing attempts. The Alabama product will look to bounce back next Sunday against the Falcons, who have allowed the 10th-fewest PPR points to the position this season.

C.J. Stroud of the Houston Texans delivered a dud in Week 17, finishing 17-for-31 for 185 yards with no touchdowns and an interception as the Houston offense failed to score in a 31-2 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The sophomore was off target on a number of throws, and he was done no favors by a Texans offensive line that allowed five sacks and paved the way for only 58 rushing yards. The young quarterback and the Houston offense couldn't establish much of anything as Baltimore completely dominated the game from the outset. Stroud now has an 8:6 touchdown-to-interception ratio in the past six games, during which he hit 250 passing yards only once. Houston will look for better as it concludes the regular season in Week 18 at Tennessee.
