Who Should I Start? Spencer Rattler or Drake Maye

Saturday, October 11, 1:49 AM

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler finally broke through and earned his first win as a starter against the Giants in Week 5. He completed 21-of-31 passes for 225 yards and a touchdown with no turnovers in the 26-14 victory. Rattler also added six rushes for 21 yards and connected with Rashid Shaheed on a perfectly placed deep ball for an 87-yard touchdown, giving the Saints' offense a much-needed vertical spark. He now faces a New England defense that just allowed 253 passing yards to the Bills and is surrendering 242.2 yards per game. Rattler ranks as a solid QB2 with upside for Week 6.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 18 of his 26 pass attempts for 261 yards, three passing touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 6 win over the New Orleans Saints. He took just one sack and was the Patriots' leading rusher with an additional 28 yards on the ground. Maye has taken a major leap during his second pro season, ranking as a fringe top-five fantasy quarterback so far. He has scored three total touchdowns in half of his games this season, making him an impactful player for both the Patriots and his fantasy managers. His impressive accuracy, improved decision-making, and dual-threat ability are among the factors that make Maye one of the most impressive and fastest-rising quarterbacks in fantasy football. He'll remain a mid-range QB1 option heading into a favorable Week 7 matchup against the Tennessee Titans.
