Who Should I Start? Jimmy Garoppolo or Patrick Mahomes

Sunday, January 5, 7:54 PM

Los Angeles Rams Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo made his Rams' debut on Sunday against the Seahawks. Despite playing mostly with second-string skill players, he racked up 334 passing yards to go with two touchdowns and one interception along with five rushing yards. Without much of a ground game, Jimmy G attempted 41 passes finishing with 27 completions (65.8% completion). Next week, he's expected to return to his role as backup QB to Matthew Stafford as the Rams host a game in the Wild Card game. Whenever the Rams' season concludes, the veteran will be a free agent, but his strong showing in Week 18 should help him find work as a backup either with the Rams or another team next season.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is well on his way to being available for the Divisional Round game this Saturday against the visiting Houston Texans after putting in a second straight full practice this week on Wednesday. Mahomes suffered a right high-ankle sprain in a win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 15 but managed to play the following two weeks before being rested in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Denver Broncos. He's now had the last two weeks to heal up with the Chiefs having a bye in the wild-card round. Although the 29-year-old might not be 100%, he should be well enough to play as the Chiefs seek an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl title. Mahomes was only the QB11 in fantasy during the regular season, though, and his fantasy ceiling won't be very high against an underrated Houston defense this weekend.
