Who Should I Start? Jordan Love or Michael Wilson

Friday, October 31, 4:11 PM

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is coming off his best fantasy outing of the season against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he looks to carry that over in Week 9 as the Packers host the Carolina Panthers. Love was the overall QB1 last week, throwing for 360 yards and three touchdowns in their Sunday Night Football win in Pittsburgh. Despite that huge game, it's hard to imagine Love stringing together multiple fantasy-worthy games, as his last two back-to-back top-12 games came in Week 4 and Week 5 of the 2024 season. But we know Love has the potential to put up yards and fantasy points each week. It's also possible the Packers lean more on the run as the Panthers' defense is one week removed from letting Buffalo's James Cook run wild for 215 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. In this matchup at home against Carolina, consider Love a low-end QB1 with some boom-or-bust potential.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has been quite the disappointment so far this season. Through seven games, he still has yet to crack double-digit fantasy points in PPR leagues and hasn't broken into the top 40 either. Even though he has seen nine targets in the two games that Jacoby Brissett has started, that's turned into a total of 84 yards and no visits to the end zone. The Dallas Cowboys, in Week 9, present one of the easiest matchups for the Cardinals' passing game, but Wilson still doesn't project higher than WR60. Fantasy managers should be able to find better options on the waiver wire unless it's a deeper league. In that case, godspeed.
