Top QBs To Start in Week 15

Jared Goff, Detroit Lions (vs. DEN)

Goff returns home after spending a disappointing week in Chicago and few people like sleeping in their bed as much as Goff. He has multiple TD passes in three of his past four home games, a continuation of a trend from last season when Goff had 23 touchdown passes against just three picks in front of the Detroit faithful.

He draws a defense that creates pressure at a bottom-10 rate and, on a per-attempt basis, is a bottom-five unit against the pass.

Brock Purdy, San Francisco 49ers (at ARZ)

We know that Purdy is capable of being as efficient as any signal caller in the league and he should have no issues in doing that against a Cardinals defense that ranks among the very worst in QB contact rate and completion percentage.

Need proof? Purdy has made two starts against Arizona in his career — 35-of-41 for 461 yards and four scores (one rushing touchdown for good measure). That lands him as a top-five play at the position and a strong start in all formats!
