Josh Allen and Justin Fields, two top quarterbacks in the NFL, are in very different situations as we enter Week 15 of the season. Which of the two top quarterbacks is more deserving of a start this week?
Josh Allen is the stronger candidate for the Week 15 starting job, and this is why we think so.
Why is Josh Allen a better fantasy pick than Justin Fields in Week 15?
This week, Josh Allen is a QB1. In Week 15, there are no bye weeks; therefore, all of the quarterbacks in good health will be active.
Over the course of his last three games, Allen has scored, at least, two touchdowns overall. He recently had to contend with challenging defensive matchups, but on Saturday, his Buffalo Bills will visit the Miami Dolphins. Due to his rushing prowess, we anticipate that Allen will continue to be the best choice in fantasy football.
Through 14 games, the Dolphins have given up the second-most rushing yards per game, the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks, and the eighth-most passing yards.
Justin Fields' opponent is not the easiest one to beat. In terms of the fewest fantasy points given to opposing quarterbacks, the Eagles rank No. 4. Fields still holds some fantasy value, mainly due to his potential for rushing. He hasn't really been capable of advancing as a passer this season, primarily due to a shortage of quality supporting players.
Josh Allen's stats and fantasy prediction for Week 15
Fantasy managers should expect Allen to contribute three or so total TDs. He might decide the outcome of your playoff game.
Josh Allen turned around yet another rough day with his ground game against the New York Jets. With four games remaining, Allen's 628 running yards are only 135 off his career-best mark from last campaign. It would be the ninth-highest QB tally in league history if he finishes with 821, which he is currently headed for.
Justin Fields' stats and fantasy prediction for Week 15
The Chicago Bears will host leaders the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend. Even if the odds are already heaped against the Bears, Justin Fields has scored a touchdown and rushed for a minimum of 60 yards in six straight contests. In his latest outing, he threw for a season-high 254 yards against the Green Bay Packers. He did, however, throw just two interceptions in that game. In Week 15, Fields still stands a chance to finish among the top five quarterbacks.
The Eagles defense has provided the most challenging tests for passers this season, but no opponent has been able to contain Fields on the ground.
