Who Should I Start? Jordan Love or Trey Lance

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love is currently outside of the top 12 as fantasy football's QB13 and should be considered as such for Week 7 as the Packers square off with the Arizona Cardinals. Love came back down to earth in Week 6, with a meager 19-of-26 passing line, with a touchdown and an interception against the Cincinnati Bengals. With such a porous Bengals' defense, the hope was that Love could exploit a team in the bottom ten of fantasy defenses through the air. Love now faces the Cardinals in Week 7, who give up the 11th-fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. With a low fantasy points ceiling, Love is merely a streaming fantasy quarterback option.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Trey Lance started the second quarter of the team's 27-13 preseason win against the New Orleans Saints and eventually led a 14-play, 85-yard scoring drive towards the end of the half. The 25-year-old, a former first-round pick, got it done more with his legs than his arm, completing seven of 14 passes for 55 yards through the air while rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Although he was up and down with his accuracy and had a fumbled snap, Lance looked confident and poised, building off the momentum he gained in the Hall of Fame Game last week. Overall, Lance easily outplayed backup Taylor Heinicke and made a strong case to be Justin Herbert's primary backup this season.
