Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Bo Nix

Monday, December 9, 6:58 PM

Despite being officially eliminated from playoff contention with their Week 14 loss to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, the Cleveland Browns are sticking with Jameis Winston as their starting quarterback, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Winston will start this coming Sunday against the visiting Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15, where he'll be a QB2 in superflex leagues against a tough KC defense. While Winston has helped upset the division-rival Baltimore Ravens and Steelers after taking over for Deshaun Watson (Achilles) in Week 8, he's also thrown a league-high nine interceptions since. The Browns are 2-4 with Winston as the starter. Dorian Thompson-Robinson started three games as a rookie in 2023. Fantasy-wise, Winston has given desperate fantasy managers in superflex leagues more upside at the position than Watson did before his Achilles tear.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix led his team to their eighth win of the season in a 41-32 shootout win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday night in Week 13. There wasn't much in the way of defense in this one on either side, with Nix getting out-gunned by Jameis Winston, who threw for nearly 500 yards on the night. The 24-year-old Nix avoided sacks and finished just shy of 300 yards passing for the second time in three weeks, but he also threw two interceptions, with the first being a tipped ball that caromed high into the air, and the second one being an aggressive deep shot down the field in which he overthrew his receiver. The picks were his first since Week 9 against Baltimore, and his TD pass was a 93-yard strike to receiver Marvin Mims Jr. that was a perfect pass in a tight window. Nix has entered the low-end QB1 picture with strong performances of late and will get the Colts in Week 15 after a bye.
