Who Should I Start? Nate Sudfeld or Josh Allen

Friday, August 9, 3:30 AM

Detroit Lions quarterback Nate Sudfeld completed just 13 of 24 passes for 96 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception during Thursday's preseason opener against the New York Giants. He also rushed three times for an additional 14 yards on the ground. The 30-year-old played most of the game, only ceding reps to Hendon Hooker (head) in the third quarter. (Hooker departed after two drives and entered concussion protocol, bringing Sudfeld back into the game.) Neither player led a touchdown drive, and while Hooker was quite impressive on the ground, his new injury could give Sudfeld the early advantage in the fight to be Jared Goff's backup. If Hooker is expected to miss time, Detroit could add another quarterback to compete with Sudfeld ahead of the 2024 campaign.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 21 of 33 pass attempts for 323 yards and two touchdowns in the team's 34-10 victory over the Tennessee Titans. He rushed three times for one yard. Allen was on his way to a respectable, but not great, stat line until the fourth quarter. He tossed his second touchdown to running back Ty Johnson and added 125 passing yards to his total on the two subsequent drives. Allen's first score was a red zone strike to the newly acquired Amari Cooper. He and the healthy return of Khalil Shakir give Allen reliable options in the passing game. Allen and the Bills will travel to Seattle for their Week 8 matchup.
