Who Should I Start? Tua Tagovailoa or Brock Purdy

Friday, December 5, 6:36 PM

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa continues to post lackluster numbers while continuing to dink and dunk. Last week, he completed 12-of-23 passes for 157 yards and an interception in his team's win over the Saints. While the team has won three straight games, he has thrown for under 200 yards in each contest with two touchdowns and three interceptions. He's averaging 190 passing yards per game on the season with 17 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. The Dolphins have been winning by relying on De'Von Achane and their defense, and they'll likely follow that formula again this week against the Jets, leaving Tua with limited upside. He's the No. 22 QB in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, so he can be left on the waiver wire or bench even in two-quarterback leagues.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy went 16-for-29 for 168 yards and one touchdown in the team's 26-8 win over the Cleveland Browns in Week 13. Purdy's production reached season lows in completions, completion rate, and passing yards, but it was enough to finish as a top-12 quarterback in fantasy. Despite Purdy's mediocre stat line, it was an improvement over his performance against the Panthers, when he threw three interceptions and completed just one pass of 10 air yards or more. Against Cleveland, Purdy managed to complete six of his 11 such pass attempts, including a 30-yard bomb to George Kittle that set up a chip-shot field goal for Matt Gay at the end of the first half. San Francisco is on bye in Week 14, but it has favorable matchups in the fantasy football playoffs with meetings against the Titans in Week 15 and the Bears in Week 17.
