Who Should I Start? Patrick Mahomes or Lamar Jackson

Saturday, September 13, 4:36 AM

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes will take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2 for a Super Bowl rematch. The last time these two teams matched up, the Eagles ended up taking home the Lombardi trophy. Jalen Hurts and the gang are coming off a Thursday night win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1, while the Chiefs suffered a one-possession loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Friday. The 29-year-old had a decent performance against the Chargers, passing for 258 yards and a touchdown while adding 57 yards and a score on the ground. That said, Mahomes will have the odds stacked against him on Sunday, facing one of the best defenses in the league without two of his top offensive weapons. Rashee Rice is still serving his suspension, and Xavier Worthy is listed as doubtful for the upcoming matchup. Despite playing at Arrowhead this weekend, Mahomes and the Chiefs are home underdogs against the Eagles. The Chiefs quarterback is ranked QB11 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him a fringe-QB1.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is leading the team into their first divisional matchup with the Cleveland Browns in Week 2 after a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills. Even though Jackson turned in a great performance, the team gave up 22 points in the fourth quarter to eventually lose by one. The Browns don't present nearly the same level of talent on offense, but they do have one of the more tantalizing defensive units. Last year, Jackson's second-worst completion percentage was against the Browns at 55.71% in two games. With that being said, he still amassed 506 yards and four touchdowns through the air with 109 yards on 17 carries. This is also his first home game of the year, which gives another reason for Jackson and company to be amped up for this matchup.
