Who Should I Start? Matthew Stafford or Josh Allen

Saturday, November 29, 6:36 AM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford continues to rank as a strong fantasy QB1 as he carries his MVP candidacy into Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Stafford continues to play at an elite level, amassing 25 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last eight games. Between his prolific passing skills and the strong supporting cast around him, Stafford has not only cemented himself as a must-start quarterback in fantasy football, but he's also putting together a very strong bid to win MVP. He'll build on both of those campaigns against the Panthers, who have allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025, but also the 13th-most passing yards. Stafford, who is a must-start regardless of matchup, ranks as the overall QB6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice, according to the team. Allen is listed with a right-elbow injury on the Week 13 injury report, but he should be fine to play this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 29-year-old had his left shoulder examined by trainers in last Thursday night's loss to the Houston Texans in a game in which he was constantly being hit and sacked by the No. 1 defense in the league. Allen was also seen shaking his right hand, but he assured us after the game that everything was fine. He scored a whopping six touchdowns (three passing, three rushing) in Week 11, but then laid an egg last week with zero touchdowns. He should be able to bounce back against Pittsburgh this weekend, but it sure would be nice if he could get tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) and receiver Keon Coleman back.
