Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Jameis Winston

Friday, November 22, 7:12 PM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is in a great position to succeed against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 12. The Cardinals are allowing 218.5 passing yards per game which is No. 21 in the league. The Seahawks were much more efficient as an offense and displayed balance in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. If the team made substantial changes during their Week 10 bye, then Smith should be able to take advantage of this positive matchup. The Cardinals roll into Seattle hot off a four-game winning streak and will be well-rested after a Week 11 bye. However, the Seahawks' receiving core should be fully healthy with wide receiver DK Metcalf off the injury report. Smith should be able to pass for over 200 yards and deliver a couple of touchdowns. In a week in which six teams are on a bye, Smith deserves to be in fantasy lineups.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston completed 18 of his 27 passes for 219 yards and an interception while adding three carries for seven yards, a touchdown, and a lost fumble in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. It was a cold, snowy day in Cleveland, which dampened the Browns' passing attack as they leaned on the running game for all three of their touchdowns. Winston did have a short touchdown pass dropped by David Njoku in the second half as several receivers had difficulty squeezing the ball in the cold conditions. Settling in as a boom/bust QB2 in fantasy, Winston will now have extra time to prepare to take on the Denver Broncos in Week 13's Monday night game.
