Should I start Jared Goff or Chase Brown in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 3:16 PM ET.

Start Jared Goff: his market-based projection is 1.0 points a game ahead of Chase Brown's this season.

Should I drop Chase Brown for Jared Goff?

Not on these numbers alone. Chase Brown projects 129 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (16.1 a game over 8 games) and Jared Goff 132 (16.5 a game over 8 games), too close to separate, so the roster spot decides it.

Their 2025 seasons

He threw for 4564 yards on 578 attempts with 34 touchdowns and 8 interceptions, and ran for 45 yards and 0 touchdowns.

Side by side

In 2025 Jared Goff scored 17.9 PPR points a game and Chase Brown 16.6, 1.3 a game between them.

Jared Goff finished QB9 and Chase Brown RB7, which are two different ladders.

Jared Goff is a quarterback and Chase Brown a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 6, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

1.0 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
