Who Should I Start? Tyreek Hill or Isiah Pacheco

Monday, September 15, 9:31 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill turned the page after a disappointing Week 1 with a big Week 2. He only had four catches for 40 yards in the season-opening loss to the Colts, but against the Patriots, he posted 109 receiving yards by catching six of his seven targets. Tua Tagovailoa was more aggressive passing the ball down the field, especially late in the game, but Tua missed Tyreek on a play that could have kept the game-winning drive going. There continues to be plenty of drama with Hill in Miami, but at least with his performance, we know he still has the ceiling to be a productive receiver going forward. This week, he and the 0-2 Dolphins play on a short week against the 2-0 Bills on Thursday Night Football.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2. The defending Super Bowl champions defeated the Chiefs in their last matchup, and Pacheco only had seven rushing yards on three carries. The 26-year-old will have the chance to exact some revenge, but he must first overcome the timeshare he's in with Kareem Hunt. Pacheco and Hunt had the same number of opportunities in Week 1; both handled five carries and two catches on three targets. The former ultimately finished with more total yards, but it was not an impressive performance by either back. Pacheco did manage 5.0 yards per carry when given the opportunity, so maybe he can build on that efficiency with more usage. That said, the Eagles defense was one of the toughest in the league to run against last season, and that looks to be the case again this year. Pacheco will have his work cut out for him if he wants to carve out a larger role in the Kansas City backfield. Pacheco is ranked RB35 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him an RB3/Flex option. He'll be a tough player to trust this week.
