Should I start Trey McBride or Mark Andrews in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 2:46 PM ET.

Start Trey McBride: 91 percent of the snaps and 25 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Mark Andrews's 57 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the targets. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
