Who Should I Start? J.K. Dobbins or Drake Maye

Monday, November 18, 1:02 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins scored two touchdowns in a Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Dobbins ran the ball 11 times, gaining 56 yards and scoring on the ground twice. He was only targeted once in the passing game and made the grab for a three-yard gain. Dobbins ran well in this one despite a usually strong Bengals run defense. His first touchdown was on a one-yard goal line plunge in the second quarter, and his second was a game-clincher in the fourth quarter that came on a 29-yard rush with 18 seconds left. Dobbins was once again in charge of this backfield despite only tallying 11 carries, as all other Chargers running backs combined for eight total carries. Dobbins will again be on the RB2 radar next week on Monday Night Football against the Ravens.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye remains a low-end QB1 option heading into Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins. Outside of an elevated turnover rate, Maye has been everything the Patriots hoped he would be so far. The No. 3 overall pick has been a top-14 fantasy quarterback in three of his six starts, and he has finished within the top 18 in each of the five games that he's played in full. He threw for a career-high 282 yards and two touchdowns last week, and he has continued to produce solid rushing production in each of his appearances so far. This week, he faces the Dolphins, who have statistically fared well against opposing quarterbacks this year, but some of those numbers are skewed from when Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined and opposing teams were able to adopt a run-heavy approach against Miami. Between Weeks 9 and 10, they surrendered a total of 528 passing yards and three touchdowns to opposing signal-callers. If Maye can exceed 250 yards and tally a couple of scores, he'll crack the top 12 for fantasy quarterbacks.
