Who Should I Start? Dak Prescott or C.J. Beathard

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a mediocre performance in a Week 3 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Prescott attempted 40 passes, completing 25 of them for 249 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He added 24 yards on the ground with three carries and took two sacks. It was an uninspiring performance for Prescott and the Cowboys against a previously winless Arizona team. Week 4 against the Patriots will be a chance for the Cowboys to get back on track.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback C.J. Beathard went 8-for-10 for 134 yards, a touchdown, and a near-perfect passer rating of 152.1 in Saturday's 31-18 preseason win over the Miami Dolphins. The vet came into camp with a leg up on rookie Nathan Rourke for the QB2 spot behind Trevor Lawrence, but the latter has been applying some pressure with his play through two games. Beathard was the second QB to take over after Lawrence in this one, leading three consecutive scoring drives to close out the first half. The performance was highlighted by a 74-yard touchdown strike to sophomore wide receiver Tim Jones, who broke open on the left side of the field and cruised in untouched for the score. Rourke quarterbacked the entire second half of the game, which saw the Jaguars put up two more touchdowns. Still, the Ohio native finished with a measly 74 passing yards on only six attempts, as Jacksonville opted to go with a more ground-heavy attack. At this point, Beathard has held onto his QB2 position but is still firmly off the fantasy radar unless something happens to Lawrence.
