Who Should I Start? Sam Darnold or Jalen Hurts

Friday, November 14, 5:26 PM

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is not someone you should look to stream this week. Darnold has been on a tear of late. He has been lighting up opposing defenses left and right. Week 11 will present the toughest task of the season. Seattle will travel to Los Angeles to face an excellent Rams defense. The Rams are No. 9 against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy this season. They have allowed some wide receivers to get loose, but quarterbacks have been stifled. Additionally, despite the excellent nature of both of these offenses, the real defining factor in this game will be each team's defense. As such, this could be a lower-scoring game than anticipated or desired. Darnold's overall passing volume could be much lower than usual. With that in mind, it is best to look elsewhere at quarterback this week. Darnold checks in as a mid-tier QB2. However, roster Darnold through this matchup because better days are ahead.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts saved what would have been an abysmal fantasy performance last week with a 36-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, but still had an overall disappointing night. This was Hurts' second game in a row with less than 200 passing yards, and he coughed up a fumble in the red zone on his first drive of the game. This week, he'll look to bounce back as the Lions come into town on Sunday Night Football. Detroit allows the 12th-least amount of passing yards per game this season (199.7), but they're also tied for the seventh-most passing touchdowns given up (18). While Philly and the Packers combined for just 17 points, this upcoming matchup is full of high-octane offensive juggernauts and is primed to be more of a shootout. Believe in Hurts to get back to his normal self as a trustworthy QB1 in Week 11.
