Who Should I Start? Marcus Mariota or Josh Allen

Wednesday, November 5, 10:09 AM

With Jayden Daniels (elbow) expected to miss time following a gruesome Week 9 injury, Marcus Mariota is set to take over as the Washington Commanders' starting quarterback for the foreseeable future. In three starts this season, the veteran has completed 52 of 78 passes (66.7%) for 576 yards, throwing four touchdowns and three interceptions, while adding 102 rushing yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. Mariota draws a favorable Week 10 matchup against the Detroit Lions, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. With his dual-threat ability and favorable matchup, Mariota profiles as a low-end QB2 for Week 10, and potentially beyond if Daniels remains sidelined.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 23 of his 26 pass attempts for 273 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He also had 19 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. The MVP candidate led Buffalo to a huge victory at home and fended off a late Kansas City comeback effort. He was highly efficient through the air and continued to flash impressive skills on the ground. Allen is now the overall QB4 in fantasy football through nine weeks, cementing himself as a top fantasy option once again heading into Week 10 against the Miami Dolphins.
