Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Justin Herbert

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett only caught one pass on three targets for nine yards in Seattle's Week 8 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Seahawks had trouble getting anything going on offense and Lockett was the odd man out. He was in position for a massive workload with top wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) out. However, the Bills had other plans and severely limited the upside of all of Seattle's skill players. Still, Lockett's output was puzzling. He had earned at least six targets in every game but one this season. He should have at least delivered flex value in this game. Look for Lockett to bounce back in Week 9 when the Seahawks host the Los Angeles Rams. If Metcalf misses again, then Lockett should be able to meet his usual target number.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert tossed two touchdowns in a Week 8 win over the New Orleans Saints. Herbert attempted 32 passes, completing 20 of them for 279 and the two touchdowns. He also added 49 yards on the ground on four carries, including one for a huge 38-yard gain. Herbert's two passing touchdowns went to rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey, who had an excellent game. That's now two weeks in a row of strong quarterback play from Herbert after a mediocre start to the season. His fantasy arrow is pointing up heading into a Week 9 game against the Cleveland Browns.
