Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or Bo Nix

Saturday, October 4, 5:34 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen continues to justify his elite fantasy status, entering Week 5 as the top-scoring player at his position. Allen has been electric through the air and on the ground, and he'll look to keep rolling in Sunday's matchup against the division rival New England Patriots. While New England's defense could provide a stiffer test than some of Allen's previous opponents, his dual-threat ability and chemistry with tight end Dalton Kincaid make him nearly matchup-proof. The duo's growing red zone connection has been a major boost for fantasy managers, and Allen remains an automatic QB1 start in all formats. Expect another strong outing from one of the game's premier fantasy weapons.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton will need a good game out of quarterback Bo Nix this week to best the reigning Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles defense. After coming off a 326-yard outing last week, Nix should keep his confidence rolling in a game that will be a great test for him this season. The Eagles are 15th in passing defense, allowing 215 yards per game through the air, while 21st against the run, allowing 126 rushing yards per game. With bye weeks and injuries, Nix is a solid start and should produce this week against the Eagles. As RotoBaller's 10th-ranked quarterback this week, feel free to start Nix with confidence as a low-end QB1.
