Who Should I Start? Jake Browning or Bryce Young

Tuesday, October 7, 11:19 AM

According to Cincinnati Bengals beat writer Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic, the team's internal options at quarterback are "not in consideration" to replace current starter Jake Browning in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. As such, any potential replacement would have to come from outside the building. In three starts since replacing Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (toe) under center, Browning has thrown for 516 yards, four touchdowns, and five interceptions while leading the team to an 0-3 record. However, it does not appear Cincinnati has confidence in current backup QB Brett Rypien or practice squad QB options Mike White and Sean Clifford. Most likely, Browning will be the signal-caller in a difficult Week 6 matchup against the Packers.

Bryce Young delivered another underwhelming performance in the Panthers' 17-7 loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Carolina QB went 17-for-25 for 124 yards with no TD passes. For the second consecutive game, Young recorded fewer than five fantasy points as he logged only 2.6. He threw an interception and fumbled once. This Panthers' loss also ended a streak of four victories in a row with Young as the starting QB. He did not record any touchdowns in back-to-back games for the first time this season. Through nine games, Young has scored 20-plus fantasy points only once. In Week 11, the Panthers will face the Atlanta Falcons, who ranked seventh in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs leading up to Week 10. Fantasy players who roster Young in superflex leagues simply aren't getting enough production to even start Young as a QB2. Keep him reserved in Week 11 if possible.
