Who Should I Start? J.K. Dobbins or Sam Howell

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins scored a touchdown in a Week 8 win over the New Orleans Saints. Dobbins led the Chargers backfield in all categories, running the ball 17 times for 57 yards and catching four of seven passing game targets for 11 yards. Dobbins scored on a one-yard goal line run in the second quarter. Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins combined for just seven carries and 16 yards, showing once again that Dobbins has this backfield locked down. He'll be in the RB1/2 conversation most weeks, including in Week 9 when the Chargers travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Howell went 11-for-14 for 153 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's loss to the Tennessee Titans. Howell looked shaky early on as the Titans blitzed aggressively out of the gate resulting in back-to-back three-and-outs. Howell actually fumbled while being sacked on the second drive but had the good fortune that a teammate was in position to fall on the ball. Howell recovered well on the team's third possession resulting in a touchdown to Easop Winston Jr. This was Howell's second start in as many preseason games for the Seahawks. Geno Smith (hip/knee) returned to practice last week and carried no designation coming into Saturday but ultimately sat. Howell will be backing up Smith to start the season but it was an encouraging effort after the early miscues.
