Who Should I Start? Joe Flacco or Daniel Jones

Monday, November 3, 11:41 AM

Despite falling to the Chicago Bears 47-42, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco lit it up again in Week 9, further solidifying his case to be a weekly option for fantasy managers. The University of Delaware product has been otherworldly since the Browns flipped him to Cincinnati. Over that four-game stretch, Flacco has accrued 1,254 passing yards (313.5 p/g) and an 11:2 TD:INT ratio across a 64.7% completion rate. Cincinnati has unfortunately dropped three of those four contests, but the veteran has been excellent for fantasy. Since Week 6, Flacco has racked up a scintillating 25.4 fantasy points per outing, with only the Chargers' Justin Herbert ahead of him (25.9). As it stands, fantasy managers could do worse than the 40-year-old as a streaming option. Furthermore, he's justifying becoming an every-week starter. Cincinnati will take on the Steelers again in Week 10. Flacco torched them a few weeks back for 342 passing yards and three scores.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has been one of the most exciting comeback players of the year, throwing for 2,404 yards, 14 touchdowns, and six interceptions while rushing for five scores on the ground. That being said, he turned in his worst game of the season in a Week 9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, throwing one touchdown and three picks. Jones will look to bounce back against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany in Week 10. The Falcons have been a tough challenge for quarterbacks in 2025, allowing just the 27th-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, Jones has been a reliable fantasy option almost every week and can be trusted as a low-end QB1 in Week 10.
