Who Should I Start? Patrick Mahomes or Jaxson Dart

Wednesday, November 26, 4:20 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, battled back from an 11-point deficit to defeat the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12, and he will look to carry that momentum in their Thanksgiving matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Mahomes completed 29 of 46 pass attempts (63%) for 352 yards and zero touchdowns. The superstar quarterback did not find the endzone through the air or on the ground while also taking four sacks and throwing an interception. It was a mixed bag for Mahomes because he set a new season-high in passing yardage, but he finished with zero touchdowns for the second time this year. Both of his zero-touchdown games have come in the past three contests, which is discouraging for fantasy managers, but he could turn it around this week. The Chiefs take on the Cowboys, who have given up the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Mahomes was listed on the injury report with a groin injury, but practiced in full all week and does not have an injury designation for Thursday's game. Mahomes is ranked QB1 in our RotoBaller rankings, meaning that fantasy managers can feel confident with him in their starting lineups.

New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart returned in Week 13 against the New England Patriots after missing the past two games due to a concussion, completing 17 of 24 passes for 139 yards and a touchdown while adding four rushes for 20 yards on the ground. Dart wasn't as active as a runner in his first game back from injury, with the four carries being his fewest in a game as a starter. He still took a huge hit on a scramble on the Giants' second drive of the game, but he managed to avoid any big collisions from that point forward. Despite the blowout loss on Monday night, the 22-year-old has been impressive in eight starts this season, completing 63.6% of his passes for 1,556 yards with 11 touchdowns and three interceptions to go with 61 carries for 337 yards and seven touchdowns as a runner. Dart will get a chance to regroup during the team's bye in Week 14. The first-rounder will next take the field in Week 15 against the division-rival Commanders, the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues.
