Russell Wilson or Sam Darnold or Justin Herbert Week 11 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Fantasy football projections for QBs
Russell Wilson, Sam Darnold and Justin Herbert are all trying to lead their respective franchises to the playoffs, but first, they need to overcome their Week 11 opponents. The Pittsburgh Steelers and LA Chargers have the most complicated matchups against the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals, respectively, while the Vikings will visit the struggling Titans at Nissan Stadium.
If you're a fantasy manager wondering who should be the starter for your fantasy team this week, check out everything you need to know to make that decision.
Is Russell Wilson a good pick in fantasy football Week 11?
Russell Wilson is coming off one of his best performances with the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Washington Commanders, taking his team to a close win. The Ravens are coming off a close victory in Thursday night's clash of Week 10, allowing four passing touchdowns from Joe Burrow. If these two situations merge again, Wilson could be in for a big game on Sunday.
Is Sam Darnold a good pick in fantasy football Week 11?
Sam Darnold had a poor performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, getting intercepted three times despite throwing for 241 yards. The Vikings relied on kicker John Parker Romo to take them to the promised land, while Darnold was unable to impact the game. The Titans held Justin Herbert to only 164 passing yards, which could be a problem for Darnold this Sunday.
Is Justin Herbert a good pick in fantasy football Week 11?
Justin Herbert didn't have the most spectacular game against the Titans, but he recorded one touchdown pass and a rushing touchdown to secure the win. The Chargers have relied on their run game, as Jim Harbaugh often does, but against a team that only allowed 68 rushing yards to Derrick Henry, this matchup could favor the quarterback.
Russell Wilson, Sam Darnold or Justin Herbert: Who should I start?
According to Sportskeeda's Sit/Start optimizer, Russell Wilson should get the nod over Justin Herbert and Sam Darnold in Week 11 of fantasy football. The Steelers quarterback has looked better by the week, and his three-touchdown performance against the Commanders confirmed that he is in the right situation to showcase his talents.
He's projected to get the edge over Herbert in fantasy points (19.0 against 18.6), while his 1.6 passing touchdowns are tied with Herbert's projections. His projected 15.6 rushing yards appear to be the tiebreaker in this situation (13.8 from Herbert).
