Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Jordan Love

Monday, December 15, 9:11 PM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett has quietly been putting together strong numbers since taking over as the starting QB in Week 6. Since he took over for the injured Kyler Murray (foot), Brissett has thrown at least two touchdowns in every game except one. The 33-year-old has surpassed 300 passing yards in three of his last five contests. Brissett is posting strong numbers in this pass-heavy Cardinals offense. It has helped that the Cardinals have been playing from behind quite often, forcing Brissett to pass frequently. Fantasy managers in need of a streaming option for Week 16 should take a hard look at Brissett. He'll draw a plus matchup against the Atlanta Falcons defense this weekend. Brissett has been posting nearly top-10 QB numbers every week since he took over under center, and he is a viable option for fantasy managers in need of help.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love had a subpar outing in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos, but he will look to correct course when the Packers head to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears. Love faced these Bears just two weeks ago and finished as QB11 for fantasy in Week 14, with three touchdown passes and 234 passing yards. It's fair to expect about the same for Love this week, with the matchup flipping to the Bears' home field. With Josh Jacobs (knee/ankle) having a true questionable designation on Saturday, in addition to multiple wide receivers banged up, Love may be relied upon even more to help carry the Packers to a much-needed divisional win to put them ahead in the NFC North. For fantasy, Love is a fringe starting option this week, with a bit more upside as one of the healthier Packers' offensive players.
