Who Should I Start? Dak Prescott or Bo Nix

When discussing the Dallas Cowboys' offense with the media on Thursday, quarterback Dak Prescott made it clear that he thinks they can do more. "There's meat left on the bone. There's a lot of plays out there that we can make. And when you're hungry like all of us are, you want to make every play. I'm not gonna put any limitations on (the offense). We can be very explosive. It's gonna be a fun offense to play in, if we just continue to be multiple, as we continue to marry the run game with the pass game, get those actions going even more. Yeah, it can be scary," Prescott said. Through two games, Prescott checks in as the QB21 in fantasy with 549 passing yards, two touchdowns, and an interception on 86 pass attempts. His 361-yard performance in the Week 2 overtime win over the Giants was his highest yardage total since Week 3 of 2024. A second straight big performance could be coming for Prescott against a banged-up Bears defense that just gave up 50-plus points to the Lions.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has had his share of ups and downs through the first three weeks of the season. He threw two interceptions and completed only 62.5% of his attempts in the Week 1 win over the Titans. While the signal-caller played much better in Week 2, his efforts weren't enough to lead Denver to another win. Most recently in Week 3 versus the Los Angeles Chargers, Nix would finish that one by tossing for 153 yards and one touchdown off a rough 14-for-25 passing (56.0%). Without question, he hasn't been the most reliable fantasy quarterback. Although Nix has a chance to get it together on Monday night against the Bengals, a team that could be without Shemar Stewart (ankle) and Cam Taylor-Britt (hamstring), fantasy managers in single-QB setups will still be rolling the dice by starting him. On the other hand, Nix should still find a home in Superflex lineups, especially with so many ailing quarterbacks around the National Football League.
