Who Should I Start? Justin Herbert or Justin Fields

Monday, November 10, 5:43 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert threw for 220 yards and one touchdown, while rushing five times for 19 yards in Sunday night's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was another gritty performance as he continued to play behind a severely depleted offensive line. Herbert was sacked five times and took numerous hits, which led him to tape both ankles during the game. The Chargers relied more on their ground game, helping to reduce some of the pressure throughout the night. Looking ahead to Week 11, Herbert faces a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that ranks second in interceptions (12) but has also allowed the fourth-most passing touchdowns. Jacksonville's secondary is opportunistic yet inconsistent, offering Herbert a potential rebound opportunity... if the offensive line can hold up. Keep an eye on his ankle health throughout the week, but expect mid-tier QB1 production if he's fully healthy.

When asked about who will get the starting nod in this Thursday's road matchup with the New England Patriots, head coach Aaron Glenn declined to say whether it'd be quarterback Justin Fields or Tyrod Taylor. Glenn has been playing this game for a few weeks now, and it doesn't appear that he'll relent in doing so. For what it's worth, Glenn noted that he "liked his [Fields] aggressiveness on the interception," presumably insinuating that he enjoyed watching his QB attempt to fit it into a tight window. As it stands, the 26-year-old will likely remain the Jets' signal-caller for the remainder of the season. With that said, it doesn't seem that Glenn is willing to shut the door on the possibility of Taylor playing altogether. Stay tuned, as it likely won't be official until much closer to game time on Thursday.
