Who Should I Start? Joe Flacco or Caleb Williams

Friday, November 21, 8:55 AM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco (shoulder) is likely losing his starting job soon, with Joe Burrow (foot) logging two straight full practices on Wednesday and Thursday this week. Flacco has performed admirably in Burrow's absence, bringing fantasy life back into players like Chase Brown, Tee Higgins, and Ja'Marr Chase. In his five starts with the Bengals, he has 2,268 passing yards, 14 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. He also has a 46.4 QBR and a 108.6 passer rating as the team went (1-4), which was no fault of the offense, as they put up 18, 33, 38,42, and 12 points in all of his starts. Burrow is the team's clear franchise quarterback, so if the Bengals feel he is ready to go, he will. At this point, considering Flacco will likely only start one or maybe two more games, it's okay to drop him to the waiver wire in all formats once Burrow is announced as the starter.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has been a fantasy superstar in November, averaging 31.9 fantasy points in the last two weeks. Not only has Williams been fantastic through the air, but he's been elite on the ground as well. The second-year quarterback is in the midst of a breakout season, ranking as the QB6 on a per-game basis. He faces the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11, a defense that he has had plenty of success against in his career. In three career games against Brian Flores' defense, Williams has averaged 21.9 fantasy points per game and no interceptions. Williams is a QB1 in Week 11 and is a sure-fire start in all fantasy formats, as he looks to continue his hot streak.
