Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott are two of the top QBs in the NFL. Both players have been having strong seasons and are viable fantasy options. If you are lucky enough to have both players on your roster, it might be tough to decide which player to start week to week. Here is a look at the pros and cons of starting each QB in your fantasy lineup.
Jordan Love Fantasy Outlook
QB Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are playing the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday at 8:20 p.m. ET. In his third season as the starter for Green Bay, Love has had a strong season. He has completed 122 of 176 passing attempts for 1438 yards and 10 TDs. However, he is coming off his worst game of the season against the Cardinals.
While Love is a good real-life QB, he has been disappointing for fantasy owners. He only has one finish above the QB 13 position, and as a result, is not typically a starting QB for fantasy owners. However, he can be a solid streamer if your starter is injured or on a bye.
Dak Prescott Fantasy Outlook
QB Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys are playing the Denver Broncos at 4:25 p.m. ET. While the Cowboys have been a wildly inconsistent team this season, it is not the fault of Prescott. The Cowboys’ offense has been stellar this year, with Prescott emerging as an MVP candidate. The team’s issue is its defense.
Through seven games this season, Prescott has completed 185 of 259 passing attempts for 1881 yards and 16 TDs. He is a consistent offensive force and a must-start in nearly all fantasy lineups. While the Broncos have a solid defense, Prescott should still be expected to have a strong week.

Verdict
There is an argument that Love is close to Prescott’s level as a real-world QB. However, when it comes to fantasy, Dak Prescott is the clear option. Love has not been consistent in putting up starting-caliber fantasy points, whereas Prescott has emerged as one of the top options this season.
So, if you are trying to decide who to put in your starting lineup, you should pick Dak Prescott over Jordan Love. There could be some concerns around the Broncos’ strong pass rush, but Prescott has not been stopped by any defense yet this season.
