Who Should I Start? Marcus Mariota or Jordan Love

Monday, December 15, 9:20 PM

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota will remain under center for the rest of the regular season after the team officially shut down Jayden Daniels (elbow) for the final three games. Mariota has started seven games this season and has posted top-10 fantasy value in three of them. The 32-year-old had a less-than-ideal outing versus the New York Giants on Sunday, throwing for 211 yards with a touchdown while rushing the ball 10 times for 43 yards on the ground. He doesn't have the strongest arm, but his dual-threat ability gives Mariota streaming appeal the rest of the way. He'll head into a challenging matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16. Mariota should still offer superflex value as a QB2 in a difficult home matchup.

Across 13 games this season, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has completed 67.1% of his pass attempts for 3,028 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four interceptions. The 27-year-old has played some of his best football in recent weeks, recording seven touchdown passes over his last two games. The Packers prefer to operate with a run-heavy approach, which limits Love's production upside. He's attempted fewer than 30 passes in seven out of 13 starts this season. However, Love is highly efficient, averaging 7.8 yards per pass attempt. If he can continue his recent run of touchdown production, Love could emerge as a consistent fantasy QB1 down the stretch of the season. The Packers will take on the Denver Broncos, Chicago Bears, and Baltimore Ravens over the next three weeks.
