Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or Drake Maye

Sunday, October 26, 9:58 PM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a modest day from a yardage perspective in his team's 40-9 Week 8 win over the Carolina Panthers, completing 12 of 19 pass attempts for 163 yards and rushing three times for seven yards. However, Allen saved his fantasy production by throwing a touchdown pass and rushing for two more. The 29-year-old remains a touchdown-scoring machine. Across seven games played in 2025, Allen has thrown for 1,560 yards and 12 touchdowns and run for 261 yards and five scores. As long as he's healthy, Allen is a must-start fantasy quarterback. He and the Bills will host the rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 18 of his 24 pass attempts for 282 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 8 win over the Cleveland Browns. He also took six sacks and rushed for 50 yards. The former No. 3 pick continues to dominate during his breakout campaign, as he now has 17 total touchdowns and just three interceptions in 2025. He is also completing passes at an elite rate, maintaining a completion percentage north of 75 percent. All the while, he has looked like one of the NFL's better rushing quarterbacks and has led the Patriots to an AFC East-leading 6-2 start. Maye's six sacks and one interception on Sunday weren't ideal, but he made up for it with his completion rate, yardage, touchdowns, and the win. The 23-year-old remains a mid-range fantasy QB1 heading into a clash with the Falcons, who just surrendered four passing touchdowns to Tua Tagovailoa.
