Who Should I Start? Joe Flacco or Zack Moss

Tuesday, October 29, 3:02 PM

The Indianapolis Colts have named veteran quarterback Joe Flacco the starter for the Week 9 game against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football. This move comes after the continuous struggles of second-year quarterback Anthony Richardson despite the belief that he would take time to develop as a raw prospect out of the 2023 draft class. Through Richardson's first 10 starts, he has compiled a 5-5 record while completing just 50.2% of his passes for 1,535 yards, seven touchdowns, and eight interceptions. Flacco led the Cleveland Browns to the playoffs in 2023 and has the chance to do the same for Indy in 2024. Flacco has appeared in four games this season, throwing for 716 yards, seven touchdowns, and one interception. He is now a must-add fantasy option in two-QB and Superflex leagues. His return to the starting lineup should provide a boost for wideouts Josh Downs and Michael Pittman Jr.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Zack Moss had five carries for 11 yards in Sunday's loss to Philadelphia. He added four catches for 28 yards. The 26-year-old began the 2024-25 campaign by finding the end zone in three of the team's first four contests. However, he's gone cold since then, with Chase Brown emerging as the Bengals' preferred rusher out of the backfield. At this point, Moss will need to turn things around before working his way back into fantasy lineups. Keep him on the bench in Week 9 against the Raiders, although he's still worth stashing for those with room to spare.
