Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Rome Odunze

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin led all Washington pass-catchers with 98 yards in their victory over the Carolina Panthers. He brought in all six of his targets, which tied for a team-high. Even though he was without his QB1 through most of the game, the 29-year-old has continued his impressive stretch as he has tallied at least 15.0 PPR points in every game since Week 3. During this span, McLaurin found the end zone four times and has been the clear lead option in the Washington air attack. Fantasy managers should continue monitoring Jayden Daniels' status (ribs) throughout the week, but McLaurin remains a safe, high-end WR2 facing the Chicago Bears next weekend.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze had a modest outing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 6, catching two passes for 40 yards and no touchdowns. One highlight was his impressive 28-yard reception, showcasing his strong playability. However, with Cole Kmet and Keenan Allen enjoying standout performances in the passing game, Odunze didn't see enough opportunities to make a significant impact. This marks the second time he has received three targets or fewer in three weeks. With all three receivers and Kmet healthy, the Bears' receiving hierarchy appears to be taking shape, positioning Odunze as the fourth option. The Bears will have a bye week next week before facing the Commanders in Week 8.
