Who Should I Start? Lamar Jackson or Jordan Love

Saturday, December 21, 9:04 PM

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson completed 15-of-23 passes for 207 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday's 34-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He also threw an interception and rushed nine times for 22 yards. The 27-year-old got one over on Pittsburgh in their rematch after scoring just once in the two teams' first meeting, an 18-16 loss. It was Jackson's sixth outing of the year with three or more TD passes. With his total on Sunday, he's up to 37 passing scores on the year -- a career-high -- opposed to just four interceptions -- two of which have come against the Steelers. The MVP candidate will get another tough matchup in championship week when he squares off against the Houston Texans on the road. Still, he'll be a high-end QB1.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has a great matchup on tap as the Packers host the New Orleans Saints in Week 16. Love has been solid this season, but for fantasy purposes, it's left fantasy managers wanting a bit more. With just one top 12 finish among fantasy quarterbacks in the last four weeks, Love has been a floor play in fantasy despite multiple touchdowns in three of those four weeks. The lack of passing volume and increasing willingness to lean into the run with Josh Jacobs has impacted the fantasy viability of not just Love, but Green Bay's pass-catchers too. With a great matchup against the Saints who give up the seventh-highest passing yards per game this season, Love is a low-end fantasy starting quarterback, but realistically, he's more of a streaming candidate for Week 16.
