Who Should I Start? DJ Moore or Justin Herbert

Saturday, September 27, 12:07 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore finally found the end zone in Week 3, his first touchdown of the 2025 season. It's been a slow start for the veteran, who has caught 12 of 16 targets for 135 yards and one score through three games. With second-year breakout Rome Odunze taking over as Chicago's WR1, Moore has seen a shift in usage, even taking on a hybrid role with six carries for 15 yards. Quarterback Caleb Williams even compared him to a potential "Deebo Samuel" piece in the offense. Moore gets a favorable matchup in Week 4 against a Raiders defense that has given up the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. While no longer the locked-in fantasy option he once was, Moore still carries upside and profiles as a high-end WR3 against a vulnerable secondary.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert had his worst game of the season, completing 22 of 29 passes for 166 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the team's 27-10 loss to the Washington Commanders. The offense looked disorganized, burdened by costly penalties and sloppy play for most of the afternoon. Herbert also led the team in rushing with four carries for 60 yards, showing how often he was pressured behind a depleted offensive line. Herbert has been hit 35 times in the last three games, as a wave of injuries on the offensive line continues to mount. As the team prepares for Week 6 against a struggling Miami Dolphins defense, the Chargers might need to rely more on the passing game since they just placed rookie running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) on IR. Herbert should have a chance to bounce back if his offensive line can give him some protection.
