Bo Nix vs Jordan Love: Who Should You Start?
Bo Nix and Jordan Love are both viable fantasy quarterbacks heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Bo Nix averaged 18.6 PPG across 17 games with the Denver Broncos, while Jordan Love posted 16.1 PPG in 15 appearances for the Green Bay Packers.
A 2.5-PPG gap gives Bo Nix the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Bo Nix threw for 3931 yards and 25 touchdowns, while Jordan Love posted 3381 yards and 23 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.
One scheduling note: Bo Nix is off Week 14 and Jordan Love Week 10. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in quarterback for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
