Who Should I Start? Matthew Stafford or Patrick Mahomes

Sunday, November 2, 8:32 PM

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 24 of his 32 pass attempts for 281 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 victory over the New Orleans Saints. He also took two sacks and finished with a loss of four rushing yards. The veteran quarterback is enjoying an MVP-caliber campaign at the age of 37, racking up 21 touchdowns and just two interceptions through eight games. He ranks third among quarterbacks in fantasy points per game since Week 4, and he's eighth in fantasy points per game for the full season. Stafford lacks rushing upside, but his spectacular passing stats should keep him in the mid-range QB1 tier for Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers. In his last outing against the Niners, Stafford racked up 389 passing yards and three passing touchdowns.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will take on the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. Mahomes continued his dominant run in last week's contest against the Washington Commanders. The Chiefs quarterback completed 25 of 34 pass attempts (74%) for 299 yards and three touchdowns in the 28-7 victory. Mahomes has now completed at least 70% of his passes in four straight games. The 30-year-old will now face the Bills, who allow the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. That said, the Kansas City offense has been rolling, and they face the fourth-highest scoring team in the league on a points-per-game basis. Mahomes can have a ceiling performance in a matchup with the second-highest Over/Under of the week. Mahomes is ranked QB1 in our RotoBaller rankings, making him a must-start player this week
