Who Should I Start? Dak Prescott or Justin Fields

Saturday, November 15, 4:48 PM

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott enters Week 11 looking to bounce back after a rough two-game stretch where he averaged just 11 fantasy points, easily his coldest run of the season. Even with the slump, Prescott has been one of the top quarterbacks in fantasy this year, and the underlying metrics still point to a player performing at a high level overall. This week sets up nicely for a rebound. Dallas plays the Las Vegas Raiders, a defense that gives up 214 passing yards per game and struggles to consistently pressure quarterbacks, ranking in the bottom 10 in sacks. Opposing passers have regularly outperformed expectations against this unit, which should give Prescott cleaner pockets and more chances to push the ball downfield. Coming out of the bye, the Cowboys' offense should reset and get back to its usual rhythm. Add in one of the highest implied totals of the week at 49.5, and Prescott is positioned for a strong fantasy outing with plenty of scoring opportunities on the table. He remains a confident QB1 play and is RotoBaller's 4th-ranked quarterback for Week 11.

The Athletic's Dianna Russini reports that the New York Jets are making a change at quarterback and will bench Justin Fields in favor of veteran Tyrod Taylor, according to a source. Through 11 weeks, the Jets rank dead-last in the league in passing yards per game under Fields. The 26-year-old has limited the turnovers (one interception) in his first year with the Jets, but he's thrown for only seven touchdowns and 1,259 yards on 204 attempts in nine starts. While last Thursday night's loss to the New England Patriots was one of his better performances, he still threw for only 116 yards and also lost a fumble. Fields has gone under 100 yards passing in four of his nine games in 2025. He could get another shot before the end of the season if Taylor isn't much better, but for now, there's no reason to keep him rostered in redraft fantasy leagues.
