Who Should I Start? Sam Darnold or Tua Tagovailoa

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.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa completed 14 of 20 pass attempts for 171 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero turnovers during Sunday's Week 11 overtime win against the Washington Commanders in Madrid. He also took three sacks in the victory. Tagovailoa didn't light the stat sheet on fire, but he also played clean football, delivering just his fourth turnover-free game of the season. However, from a fantasy perspective, his quiet day equated to a very disappointing fantasy performance, especially just one week removed from a two-touchdown outing against the Bills. Tagovailoa finished Week 11 with his third-lowest fantasy total of the season, and he'll remain a low-end QB2 on the other side of Miami's Week 12 bye.
