Who Should I Start? Jordan Love or Jayden Daniels

Monday, December 23, 11:35 PM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love was quiet and didn't have to do a lot of heavy lifting as the Packers blanked the New Orleans Saints 34-0 in Week 16. Love was 16-of-28 passing for 182 yards and one touchdown; a two-yard strike to Dontayvion Wicks to kick off the scoring for the Packers in the first quarter. Love also added two yards rushing in the win. With the run game a massive part of the production for the Packers against the undermanned Saints, Love didn't have to expend a lot of energy in this game as he bowed out in the fourth quarter for Malik Willis to finish out the game. In Week 17, the Packers will head to U.S. Bank Stadium to face the Minnesota Vikings, where Love will be a low-end QB1 for fantasy managers.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels went 24-for-39 with 258 yards and five scores during their victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Daniels added 81 yards on the ground on nine attempts. He also threw two interceptions. In the first half, Daniels and the Commanders had trouble finding much consistency but were able to score 14 points. Daniels found Jamison Crowder on a six-yard TD strike and Terry McLaurin on a 32-yard pass. However, Daniels put the team on his back in the fourth quarter as he led the Commanders to a victory by putting 22 points on the board. In this quarter, Daniels found Olamide Zaccheaus twice, once from four yards out, and the other from 49 yards out. Then, the LSU product would go one to throw his fifth TD pass of the afternoon in the final seconds to clinch the victory. He found Crowder for the second time from nine yards out. This was his first five-touchdown performance of his career and he was able to do it against one of the league's top defensive units. Daniels remains a must-start QB1 heading into a Week 17 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons.
