Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or Tua Tagovailoa

Saturday, December 13, 5:14 AM

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen enters Week 15 in elite form after posting 944 passing yards with seven touchdowns across his last four games while adding 176 rushing yards and five rushing touchdowns on the ground. The 29-year-old has been particularly dangerous in the red zone, accounting for 12 total touchdowns over the past month. Allen faces a Patriots defense that ranks middle-tier against opposing quarterbacks, allowing 220 passing yards per game and 23 touchdown passes through 14 games. The Bills' receiving corps has stabilized around Khalil Shakir, Gabe Davis, and Tyrell Shavers, with Dalton Kincaid expected back from his month-long absence. The matchup at Gillette Stadium sets up favorably for Allen's aggressive downfield approach, as New England's secondary has generated just six interceptions this season. Allen's dual-threat upside, combined with consistent volume, makes him a must-start, ranking as RotoBaller's QB1 for Week 15.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has given some underwhelming performances over the last few weeks. In fact, Tagovailoa has thrown for fewer than 200 passing yards in four straight games. The 27-year-old hasn't posted a multi-score game since Week 10 versus the Buffalo Bills, either. Tagovailoa does have a plus matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15, though. The Steelers' defense has given up nearly 250 passing yards per game this season. However, it's worth noting that Tagovailoa has notoriously struggled in cold weather. He hasn't thrown for over 200 yards in a road game since Week 8 in Atlanta, which was indoors. The sixth-year quarterback could be worth a look in two-quarterback leagues, but his ceiling for fantasy purposes remains low.
