Who Should I Start? Jameis Winston or Josh Allen

Saturday, November 15, 9:29 AM

New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston is set to make his first start of the season in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, filling in for an injured Jaxon Dart (concussion). Winston will get the start over Russell Wilson as he is demoted to QB3. The former first overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft takes over at the helm with interim head coach Mike Kafka after Brian Daboll was fired earlier this week. Winston produced his standard numbers in seven games as a starter in Cleveland last season, completing 61.1% of his passes for 2,121 yards with 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The 31-year-old will be without one of New York's top wideouts in Darius Slayton (hamstring), in a stiff test against a stout Green Bay Packers defense that has allowed the second-fewest net yards per pass attempt (5.1) this season. Winston provides plenty of volatility in a given week, and he'll project as a low-end QB2 for Week 11.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was sacked a career-high eight times and hit four other times in the Thursday night loss to the Houston Texans. Allen took a beating, but he said he's fine after having his left shoulder examined by athletic trainers. The 29-year-old stayed in the game and finished with no touchdowns for only the third time in his career. Allen was also seen shaking his right hand after taking a sack, but he said after the game that "we're good." It was a rough game for Buffalo's offense, but the good news is that Allen will have extra time to rest before a Week 13 game on Nov. 30 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Allen's fantasy managers will be hoping that tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) will be back by then, and it's likely that the team will end receiver Keon Coleman's two-game absence for disciplinary reasons. Allen should be able to bounce back against Pittsburgh if he's healthy.
