Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Cameron Ward

Tuesday, November 18, 9:55 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed an NFL record 47 passes in their 41-22 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11. Brissett's 452 passing yards trail only Joe Flacco's 470-yard performance in Week 9 for the most passing yards in a game this season. His passing volume has been among the highest in the league since taking over as the starter in Week 11. The 32-year-old signal caller has 212 pass attempts in that span, behind only Flacco, and is the QB4 in points per game (22.5). The Cardinals have often found themselves in negative game scripts, which has led to Brissett slinging it at a high rate. For fantasy managers looking for a viable quarterback with the slew of injuries at the position this year, Brissett is one of the better adds off the waiver wire this week and is only rostered in 23.6% of ESPN leagues.

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cameron Ward went 24-for-37 for 194 yards with one touchdown in the crushing 16-13 loss on Sunday to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Ward also had three carries for a career high of 33 rushing yards with one lost fumble. The 23-year-old first overall pick put together his best fantasy performance of his young career, scoring over 14 fantasy points. Ward threw his lone touchdown to veteran wide receiver Van Jefferson on Sunday, making it his third game in four weeks throwing a touchdown. However, Ward had another turnover, bringing his total to 12 this season. Ward will once again be a QB3 in fantasy in a difficult matchup against a top-ranked Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 12.
