Who Should I Start? Sam Darnold or Breece Hall

Monday, September 15, 3:29 PM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold looks like a potential streamer candidate moving forward. Darnold endured a tough first half in Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he rallied to throw for 295 yards and two touchdowns. Darnold finished the week with 17.8 fantasy points, which is enough to hold down the quarterback spot on your roster for a week. Most importantly, Darnold looked comfortable in his new offense. He was spreading the wealth around as well. Five Seahawks earned multiple targets in this game. Darnold's chemistry with wide receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp was also apparent. He was efficient throwing to both players, and they combined for 193 receiving yards. If Darnold keeps up this level of play and cuts down on the interceptions, he is going to be a player worth rostering in fantasy. Darnold will face New Orleans, Arizona, and Tampa Bay over the next three weeks. He should be on the streaming radar in each of those games.

Week 2 didn't go as expected for running back Breece Hall and the New York Jets' offense. The 24-year-old exploded for 107 rushing yards in the team's season opener, notching his first 100-yard effort on the ground since Week 6 of last season. However, Buffalo's defense proved too much for quarterback Justin Fields, who seemed to regress after his superb outing against the Steelers. Now, it's unclear which version we'll get from week to week. It isn't all doom and gloom for Hall, as he's either tied for or outright been the team's second-leading target getter in both games. Furthermore, he's very clearly the No. 1 option out of the backfield. Expectations need to be tempered for the time being, but the fourth-year pro still has a clear path to production. He'll look to get back on track in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
