Who Should I Start? Ja'Marr Chase or Drake London

Saturday, November 1, 11:51 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase entered the Week 8 loss to the New York Jets by catching at least one touchdown in each of his previous three games. While the former LSU Tiger didn't find the end zone in that one, he still had 12 catches for 91 yards. With the Bengals coming off a disappointing loss, they will try to get on track on Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Quarterback Joe Flacco (shoulder) didn't practice on Wednesday, which is not uncommon for older players, before being limited in Thursday's session. However, panic set in for fantasy managers when he didn't practice on Friday and was slapped with a questionable designation for Week 9. Fortunately, there's reason to believe the signal-caller will be out there on Sunday. It appears Flacco and Chase have quickly developed strong on-field chemistry in a short span, so the duo should continue to connect in the meeting with the Bears. If Flacco can't suit up, Jake Browning would be back under center. Although Browning's presence would presumably lower Chase's ceiling, the wideout remains a must-start for obvious reasons.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London caught nine of his 14 targets for 118 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the New England Patriots. London had an impressive game despite playing against a strong Patriots secondary featuring Christian Gonzalez, Marcus Jones, and Carlton Davis. Not only did he set a new season-high in fantasy points, but he also had his first multi-touchdown showing of the year. London accounted for the bulk of Atlanta's scoring and gave them a chance to tie the game late, but kicker Parker Romo missed an extra point to keep the Falcons in a one-point deficit that they did not overcome. London is a mid-to-high WR1 heading into Week 10 against the Indianapolis Colts.
