Who Should I Start? Jordan Love or Cameron Ward

Monday, October 27, 12:53 AM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love completed 29 of his 37 pass attempts for 360 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 8 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Green Bay got out to a bit of a slow start on primetime television, but the Packers ultimately outscored the Steelers 28-9 in the second half to pull off a two-possession victory. Love showcased a great rapport with tight end Tucker Kraft, as the two connected for seven completions, 143 yards, and a pair of touchdowns. The 26-year-old now ranks 13th among quarterbacks in fantasy points per game. He is a top-12 fantasy option heading into a favorable Week 9 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Cameron Ward has been playing better lately, but is still off to a slow start to his rookie campaign. Over the last three games, Ward has thrown for over 220 yards in each of those contests. The biggest problem is that Ward has thrown an interception in each of the last five contests. The 23-year-old is also missing his top wide receiver in Calvin Ridley (hamstring) again this weekend. It's hard to imagine Ward having much success against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 8. Due to bye weeks, fantasy managers might have no choice but to start Ward. However, he should be viewed as a low-end option.
