Who Should I Start? Matthew Stafford or Cooper Rush

Thursday, November 27, 12:07 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has played at an elite level this season, throwing 30 touchdowns to just two interceptions in 11 games. Stafford lit up the Bucs for three first-half touchdowns before throttling down in the second half in the Week 12 blowout win. The 37-year-old ranks as the QB4 in fantasy points per game this season, while his elite wide receiver duo of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams both rank in the top 10 for PPR points per game. Stafford profiles as a high-end QB1 again in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Cooper Rush was benched during Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Los Angeles Rams. He has been replaced by Tyler Huntley, who is currently on his third stint with the organization. Rush has struggled immensely while filling in for Lamar Jackson (hamstring). Last week, he had 179 yards and three interceptions. This week, through three quarters of play before being benched, he amassed 72 yards, one interception, and one last fumble. Trailing by multiple possessions in the final quarter, Baltimore decided that a change was necessary. The pivot to Huntley gives the Ravens a more mobile and athletic option under center. He'll likely quarterback the Ravens for the rest of Sunday's contest and could be in the conversation to start Baltimore's next game in Week 8 if Jackson remains sidelined.
