Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or Dorian Thompson-Robinson

Monday, December 15, 12:11 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen staged yet another comeback victory on Sunday against the division-rival New England Patriots, completing 19 of 28 passes for 193 yards and three touchdowns while adding 11 carries for 48 yards as a runner. Allen and the Bills punted on their first three drives and spotted the Patriots a 21-0 lead in the first half, but the reigning MVP then led five consecutive touchdown drives as the Bills stormed back to win 35-31. The superstar quarterback found tight end Dawson Knox for two touchdowns and running back James Cook for the other. Allen has now compiled 444 passing yards, 126 rushing yards, and seven total touchdowns with zero turnovers in the past two games, building a legitimate case to repeat as the league's MVP. Allen will profile as the overall QB1 in fantasy football again in Week 16 against the Cleveland Browns.

The Philadelphia Eagles have released third-year quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson. Thompson-Robinson was acquired via trade and a 5th-round pick in a deal that sent Kenny Pickett to the Browns in March. The Eagles traded for Sam Howell earlier on Sunday, and with fellow third-year quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) looking like one of the stars of this year's preseason, Thompson-Robinson became expendable. McKee is dealing with a fractured thumb and his status for Week 1 is in doubt. The Eagles' backup quarterback job has been extremely fantasy relevant of late, with Pro Bowler Jalen Hurts missing late-season action in two of the past three seasons. With a plentitude of offensive weapons at their disposal, whoever can hold the job between McKee and Howell will be worth stashing in deep Superflex and dynasty leagues.
