Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or Chase Brown

Sunday, November 9, 1:17 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor had 32 carries for 244 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns during Sunday's overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. He also caught all three of his targets for an additional 42 receiving yards. The superstar running back strengthened his candidacy for the NFL rushing title, and he also improved his unlikely but not impossible odds in the MVP race. Taylor is now the overall RB1 in fantasy football this season. He remains an undisputed must-start on the other side of Indianapolis' Week 11 bye.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown hasn't played as well as expected. He began the 2025 campaign by finding the end zone in Week 1 against the Browns. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old didn't score again until the narrow one-point loss to the New York Jets back in Week 8. It's safe to say he has a way to go before earning back the trust of fantasy managers, especially since he's struggled to get much going on the ground. However, Brown has at least made up for it by scoring two touchdowns against the Jets and totaling eight catches in the Week 9 meeting with the Chicago Bears. He's trending in the right direction and should see even more snaps with Samaje Perine (ankle) ruled out. As a result, Brown can continue to be viewed as a starting fantasy option in Week 11 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.
