Who Should I Start? Joe Mixon or Trey McBride

Saturday, December 21, 4:15 PM

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon compiled 71 total yards with no touchdowns in a 27-19 defeat at Kansas City on Saturday. The first-year Texan had a decent day on the ground against a strong Chiefs run defense, compiling 57 yards on 14 carries, but wasn't involved much as a receiver, drawing just two targets for one catch and 14 yards. The veteran has now gone back-to-back weeks without a score after compiling 11 touchdowns in the prior eight games. Mixon and the Texans will be back in action in short order, taking on the Baltimore Ravens on Christmas Day.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride is arguably the number one overall tight end play in fantasy football in Week 16 when the Cardinals travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers. McBride is having one of the best seasons we've seen from a tight end in recent memory and, statistically, the best in Arizona in a long time. One statistical category that is lacking is touchdown production. McBride just broke the record for most receptions in a season (89) without a touchdown. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray has been vocal about getting McBride into the end zone, and they will have a good opportunity to do so, as the Panthers are allowing the most passing touchdowns in the NFL. It's hard to find a better option at the tight end position than McBride, and he should be started in all league formats.
