Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Jordan Love

Saturday, December 6, 10:06 AM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift is looking to sustain his elite productivity in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers. Swift had a monster game in Week 13, totaling 138 scrimmage yards and a touchdown against the defending champion, Philadelphia Eagles. While Swift has averaged 14.4 PPR fantasy points per game this season, rookie running back Kyle Monangai has been performing like a number-one running back as well. Over the past three weeks, the split has been nearly even, with Swift playing 52% of the snaps and Monangai playing 46%. The matchup is not ideal as well, with the Packers ranking as the seventh-best run defense in the NFL this season. Swift's fantasy value will come down to game script, as he should be considered a low-end RB2 in Week 14.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has been QB11 or better in three of his last four games, but draws a tough assignment as the Packers head to Denver to take on the Broncos. Love has back-to-back 20+ fantasy point outings against the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears, with three or more touchdowns in both games. Making that three straight games, with a road game in Denver, will be a tall order. The Broncos allow the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and the ninth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers as well, making it a tough matchup across the board for the Packers' pass-catchers and Love. For fantasy purposes, Love is a low-end streaming quarterback in single quarterback leagues, but a mid-range QB2 in two-quarterback formats.
