Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Jordan Addison

Friday, November 14, 10:18 PM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts saved what would have been an abysmal fantasy performance last week with a 36-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, but still had an overall disappointing night. This was Hurts' second game in a row with less than 200 passing yards, and he coughed up a fumble in the red zone on his first drive of the game. This week, he'll look to bounce back as the Lions come into town on Sunday Night Football. Detroit allows the 12th-least amount of passing yards per game this season (199.7), but they're also tied for the seventh-most passing touchdowns given up (18). While Philly and the Packers combined for just 17 points, this upcoming matchup is full of high-octane offensive juggernauts and is primed to be more of a shootout. Believe in Hurts to get back to his normal self as a trustworthy QB1 in Week 11.

While Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy has had his share of struggles as he adapts to the NFL, wide receiver Jordan Addison accepted blame for Minnesota's issues in the passing game last week. The Vikings dropped six passes in Sunday's loss against Chicago, including two by Addison, both would-be first downs, one of which had a chance to score a long touchdown. "If I make those types of plays, we win. No doubt," Addison said, according to The Athletic. The third-year receiver had two catches for 20 yards and connected with McCarthy on the go-ahead touchdown in the final minute, but the Vikings' lax kick coverage quickly gave up the advantage as the Bears kicked a field goal as time expired. From a fantasy perspective, Addison has now had four straight weeks of fewer than four catches, making him difficult to trust in standard formats for the time being.
