Jordan Love vs Tua Tagovailoa: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Jordan Love and Tua Tagovailoa for your lineup, you are not alone. Jordan Love finished the 2025 season at 16.1 PPG for the Green Bay Packers (15 games), and Tua Tagovailoa averaged 12.6 for the Atlanta Falcons (14 games).
That 3.5-point weekly advantage for Jordan Love is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Jordan Love threw for 3381 yards and 23 touchdowns, while Tua Tagovailoa posted 2660 yards and 20 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.
One scheduling note: Jordan Love is off Week 10 and Tua Tagovailoa Week 12. 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.
