Who Should I Start? Josh Johnson or Jalen Hurts

Saturday, August 9, 9:49 AM

Well-traveled Washington Commanders quarterback Josh Johnson completed 15 of 22 passes for a game-high 173 yards with one touchdown and an interception on Friday against the New England Patriots. Jayden Daniels is the no-doubt starter for Washington with Marcus Mariota also in the fold as the likely backup, leaving Johnson and Sam Hartman competing for the third spot. Hartman struggled while the 38-year-old Johnson proved to be the more effective of the two, at least in the opener. Washington will next take on Cincinnati on Aug. 18.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts comes off of the bye week to an immediate challenge as he travels to Green Bay to face a Packers defense allowing just 197 passing yards per game, which is the ninth-lowest average in the league. But, in his most recent outing, Hurts put up a season-high four touchdowns against the Giants right after his three-touchdown performance in Week 7, giving him all the momentum and a good amount of rest heading into Monday night's clash of NFC titans. In a preview of what could very possibly be a playoff matchup down the line, he also has his star receiver A.J. Brown back in the mix. Hurts has a lot going in his favor and holds a high-end QB1 spot for this primetime Week 10 battle.
