Who Should I Start? Michael Penix Jr. or Bo Nix

Saturday, November 14, 5:40 AM

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. began the season with a 9:1 TD:INT over his first five games, but has since thrown just one touchdown and five interceptions over the last two contests. The former first-rounder has failed to go over 200 yards passing in either of those games, and hasn't topped 256 yards all season, although two three-touchdown performances have shown what he is capable of. After two down performances, the 6-foot-3 quarterback out of Washington will look to get back on track in Week 10, though a home matchup against the Chiefs awaits. Kansas City is middle of the road in terms of passing yards allowed per game (223.8), but is allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing signal callers, with just seven passing TDs surrendered so far through eight games. On the bright side, the defense ranks near the bottom in terms of sacks per game (1.3), which could allow Penix some time to find an open receiver, but with a ranking of QB23 this week at RotoBaller, there are likely streaming options in better environments for Week 10.
