Who Should I Start? Jared Goff or Joshua Dobbs

Wednesday, September 27, 4:25 PM

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has thrown for 819 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions through three games this year. For what it's worth, he's also rushed for a touchdown. He is the overall fantasy QB10 thus far and has plenty of upside in any matchup due to his high-powered offense. That said, pure pocket passers usually need at least two touchdowns to pay off in fantasy football. Against the Green Bay Packers, who have allowed the 14th-most fantasy points to the position, two touchdowns are well within his range of outcomes. It's worth noting Jaire Alexander (back) could miss this game.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon announced on Monday that quarterback Joshua Dobbs will make another start under center in Week 2 against the New York Giants. Dobbs wasn't good at all in the season opener on Sunday in a 20-16 loss to the Washington Commanders, going 21-for-30 for 132 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. He carried the ball three times for a loss of three yards and also fumbled three times, losing two of them. It was just the 28-year-old's third NFL start, though, and it came against a pretty tough defense. Dobbs will have the opportunity to bounce back this weekend against a Giants D that just allowed 40 points to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. Still, Dobbs should be viewed as only a desperation QB2 play in deep superflex leagues.
