Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or C.J. Stroud

Friday, November 22, 10:36 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson completed 21 of his 28 pass attempts for 270 yards and a touchdown in a 24-19 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He added 10 rushing yards on three carries but lost a fumble. Although Wilson completed his first 11 passes and made some impressive deep throws, he struggled to get the ball into the end zone for a second consecutive week. Pittsburgh's first touchdown, a 3-yard run by Jaylen Warren, came in the fourth quarter with Justin Fields in at quarterback near the goal line. The Steelers experimented with Fields throughout the contest, but it was Wilson who managed to hit Calvin Austin III for a 23-yard score that gave the team a 19-18 lead with just over six minutes remaining. Wilson is now 4-1 as a starter this season and will hope to get back on track in Week 13 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud should mostly be kept to Superflex duty as his team takes on the solid Tennessee Titans defense in Week 12. The Ohio State product has had an up-and-down second season, ranking a disappointing 17th among fantasy quarterbacks after his breakout rookie campaign. Part of the struggle has been pass protection, as Houston has allowed the third-most sacks in the league. Tennessee, despite its 2-8 record, has allowed the fewest air yards in the league and has been a competent defense. Stroud has his top playmaker back in receiver Nico Collins, but with this matchup, managers in 1QB formats should be weighing their other possible options.
