Who Should I Start? C.J. Stroud or Caleb Williams

Saturday, December 6, 7:45 AM

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud got a big win over the Colts in his return from a concussion last week, and he'll be in another huge matchup this week against the tough Chiefs' defense on Sunday Night Football. Stroud completed 22 of 35 passes for 276 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in last week's win, but looked very sharp overall, even though his fantasy numbers weren't huge. One encouraging sign is that he did have 35 pass attempts, continuing the team's recent trend of throwing the ball more during their current winning streak. If that trend continues again this week, Stroud has good upside if he can convert touchdowns. He's the No. 21 QB in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, making him a low-end QB2 that does bring potential upside despite his tough primetime matchup.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is hoping to lead the Bears to their ninth win in their last ten games when they face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13. Williams has ascended in his second season, completing 213 of 360 passes for 2568 yards, with 16 touchdowns and four interceptions in 11 games. Williams has also improved his rushing production in 2025, totaling 293 yards and three touchdowns on 56 carries. The 2024 first-overall pick is averaging 19.7 fantasy points per game, which puts him on pace to finish as the QB8 in fantasy this season. Philadelphia's pass defense has been middle of the pack this season, but has improved since acquiring Jaelan Phillips at the trade deadline. The key will be if Williams can play mistake-free football, as fantasy managers can feel comfortable starting him in Week 13.
