Who Should I Start? Russell Wilson or Joshua Dobbs

Wednesday, November 20, 7:41 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson was disappointing in last week's win over the Baltimore Ravens and gets another divisional opponent in the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football. The Browns have been middle-of-the-road against the air attack and fantasy QBs this season. While Wilson averages over 235 passing yards per contest, touchdowns have come inconsistently for this Steelers offense, specifically in the red zone. Additionally, this showdown is projected for a meager point total with the over/under sitting at just 36.5. Because of this, Wilson is not a recommended option in most leagues this week, but he can be deployed as a middling QB2 in superflex or two-quarterback formats.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joshua Dobbs took the bulk of the offensive snaps for the team in a 16-10 preseason victory over the New Orleans Saints in Santa Clara on Sunday night. The 29-year-old entered the game for San Francisco's fourth possession following a struggling Brock Purdy offense. Dobbs would remain at the helm for three point-generating possessions before yielding to Brandon Allen at the half. Dobbs totaled 12 of 21 passes completed for 133 yards with no sacks or interceptions. He added three carries for 25 yards, including an impressive reverse-field scramble for a first down and a one-yard touchdown plunge. While preseason successes -- and failures -- should be taken with a grain of salt, San Francisco has to be happy to see a continuation of the skills Dobbs flashed in 2023 with Arizona and Minnesota. Dobbs is not fantasy-rosterable at this point but should draw some waiver-wire action if Purdy misses time.
