Who Should I Start? Tom Brady or Josh Allen

As recently as last week, there was a feeling inside the Las Vegas Raiders' team headquarters that owner Mark Davis would give head coach Antonio Pierce and general manager Tom Telesco another year to figure things out after a 4-13 finish in 2024. However, seven-time Super Bowl-champion Tom Brady, who purchased 5% of the team last October, felt a total reset was needed and persuaded Davis to fire both Pierce and Telesco. "This is Tom's show now," a person with knowledge of the situation said. Davis will make the final call on decisions for the franchise, but Davis wants Brady to have a "huge" voice and has a lot of trust in him. By firing Telesco, the Raiders have made the head-coach job more attractive to potential coaches, and the Raiders are willing to consider a package deal if their top coaching candidates have preferred front-office leaders in mind.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 19 of his 30 pass attempts for 317 passing yards, three passing touchdowns, and two interceptions during Sunday's Week 11 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He also added six rushing attempts, 40 rushing yards, and three rushing touchdowns. Allen was highly efficient in Sunday's explosive outing, both in terms of scoring and yardage. The two turnovers did make his job slightly harder, but he certainly made up for it with the six touchdowns. He continues to be a spectacular, must-start fantasy option and will rank as a high-end QB1 heading into Week 12 against the Houston Texans.
