Who Should I Start? Matthew Stafford or Marcus Mariota

Saturday, November 15, 11:44 AM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford continues to play at an MVP level, and he should be started in all fantasy leagues ahead of Week 11 against the Seattle Seahawks. Despite having no rushing upside, Stafford has been delivering some of the best fantasy performances of his career lately. He has a whopping 20 passing touchdowns over his last six games and ranks as the overall QB7 in fantasy football this season. Sunday's matchup will pit two divisional foes head-to-head with a chance to gain -- or lose -- key ground in the NFC West. The Seahawks have been tough on quarterbacks this year, but they still surrendered 258 passing yards and two touchdowns to Jacoby Brissett last week. The ceiling remains incredibly high for Stafford, who has repeatedly proven that he is matchup-proof.

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota finished Sunday with 213 yards passing, 49 yards rushing, one touchdown pass, and an interception in an overtime loss against Miami. Filling in for starter Jayden Daniels (elbow), the veteran was solid if unspectacular by completing 20 of 30 passing attempts and breaking a 44-yard run that accounted for most of his rushing yardage. Mariota briefly departed the game to be checked for a concussion, but re-entered and finished the game. Unfortunately for Washington, his lone pick was a big one: Miami intercepted him on the first play of overtime and was able to kick a short field goal to clinch victory. From a fantasy perspective, Mariota should maintain Superflex value as long as Daniels is hurt.
