Who Should I Start? Joe Burrow or Caleb Williams

The Cincinnati Bengals believe that quarterback Joe Burrow "just enjoyed the best training camp of his career," according to Jeff Howe of the Athletic. The 28-year-old is coming off a stellar 2024 campaign, amassing career-highs in passing yards (4,918), touchdowns (43), and completion percentage (70.6). Unfortunately, his efforts weren't enough to lead the team into the postseason. Without question, the Bengals defense struggled last season. While not much is expected to change on that front, Burrow is ready to spearhead one of the NFL's most explosive offenses. Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Mike Gesicki all received new deals in the offseason. In addition, Chase Brown was one of the league's most improved running backs. All things considered, it appears Burrow has all the tools necessary to finish the year as the top fantasy quarterback. However, the offensive line must keep him upright, especially since he's had issues staying healthy over the years. Chase, Higgins, and Brown will also need to avoid the injury report.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams said he is regaining his enthusiasm during his second year, according to a piece written by Courtney Cronin of ESPN. The Bears plucked head coach Ben Johnson away from the rival Detroit Lions during the offseason, then committed to their offense by spending three picks in the first two rounds on tight end Colston Loveland, left tackle Ozzy Trapilo, and receiver Luther Burden III. Williams spoke glowingly of Johnson, who will be tasked with helping the former No. 1 overall pick turn around the franchise, which has posted just one winning record since 2013.
