Justin Herbert vs. Tua Tagovailoa: Who To Start In Fantasy Football? NFL Week 14 Sunday Night Football

In one of the most exciting matchups of the season, the Miami Dolphins take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football. Out of Justin Herbert vs. Tua Tagovailoa, which quarterback will have a better game?

On Sunday Night Football, the Los Angeles Chargers and Miami Dolphins will both be trying to right the ship after coming off losses. While both the teams are trying to make the playoffs, it is unlikely both do.

Justin Herbert and the Chargers are coming off of a loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, who have been playing below their level all season. Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins just lost to the San Francisco 49ers and their 3rd string quarterback.

Both teams went into Sunday confident that they would win but quarterback play among other factors came into deciding the outcome of the games. However, this does not mean that both quarterbacks had a bad day.

Herbert put up 18.1 points which is not impressive but his statline is another story. Herbert’s 335 passing yards should have yielded more points but it was capped by his 1 and only touchdown pass.

Tua Tagovailoa recorded 295 passing yards and 2 touchdowns along with 2 interceptions and a fumble. Tua had one of his weakest performances of the season and understandably so against the league best 49ers’ defense.

Both quarterbacks are ready for a shootout in primetime

Against a high scoring Miami team, Herbert should at least throw for 2 touchdowns and a lot of yards. And Tua should throw multiple touchdowns along with plenty of yards as they boast a pass first offense.

The Chargers offense relies heavily on Austin Ekeler in the pass and run game. But the Dolphins rely on Tua, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle to score points. Considering both defenses have average to subpar pass defense, both quarterbacks are in line for a good week.

But if one had to be chosen, the quarterback to go with is Tua Tagovailoa. Tagovailoa and head coach Mike McDaniel will be looking to go back to their winning ways with what they do best. Throwing the football and getting yards after catch.

Tyreek and Waddle boost Tua’s value, especially this week where the duo will be facing a constantly underperforming defense. Ekeler is more likely to vulture touchdowns and yards away from Herbert than Raheem Mostert or Jeff Wilson Jr.
