Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Joe Burrow

Sunday, December 7, 10:01 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett completed 25 of 44 pass attempts for 271 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in his team's 45-17 Week 14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Arizona's pass-happy attack continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers. Across 10 games (eight starts) worth of action in 2025, the 32-year-old has thrown for 2,459 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five picks. Brissett has thrown for at least 258 yards in all eight of his starts and topped 300 passing yards in four separate contests. He's also attempted at least 40 pass attempts in five straight weeks and is averaging an incredible 43.3 pass attempts per start so far in 2025. As long as the Cardinals continue to find themselves in pass-heavy game scripts every week, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback. However, Arizona has a difficult matchup in Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow came ready to play despite the snowy conditions in Buffalo on Sunday. This was his second game back after missing nine games due to a turf-toe injury. Burrow threw two touchdowns during the Thanksgiving night victory over the Baltimore Ravens last Thursday in his first game back. The 28-year-old was able to top that performance on Sunday. Burrow completed 25 of 36 passing attempts for 284 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss. One of his two picks was costly, though, with Buffalo returning it for a pick-six. This was a stellar performance by Burrow until he threw back-to-back interceptions in the fourth quarter. Despite the turnovers, this was still Burrow's best fantasy performance of the season. He'll get a rematch against the Ravens next weekend, where he'll be a strong QB1 choice for fantasy managers.
