Who Should I Start? Geno Smith or Kenny Pickett

Monday, September 25, 3:50 AM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith came up four yards shy of his second 300-yard game in as many weeks in Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. In Week 3, he went 23-for-36 for 296 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Smith made things work from behind a makeshift offensive line, though Carolina's defensive front kept the quarterback on his toes and registered two sacks. Next week, the Seahawks take on the New York Giants in a Monday night matchup. The Giants allowed Brock Purdy to throw for 310 yards and two touchdowns on Thursday night in Week 3. Look for Smith to keep building on his recent success in Week 4 and push his way into QB1 territory again.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett completed 16 of his 28 pass attempts for 235 yards and two touchdowns in a 23-18 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. He also added 11 rushing yards on three carries. Pickett had by far his best performance of the season on Sunday night, passing for multiple scores for the first time in his young career. He connected with wide receiver Calvin Austin III on a deep ball for a 72-yard touchdown in the first quarter and later found tight end Pat Freiermuth in the end zone from 13 yards out. Although Pickett himself is not yet on the fantasy radar in most formats, this showing was a good sign for the outlook of Pittsburgh's offensive weapons. A bout with the Houston Texans is on tap for Week 4.
