Who is the best quarterback fantasy pick for Week 10 - Justin Fields or Jalen Hurts?

The Chicago Bears are having a rough season, but Justin Fields has established himself as a sound starting quarterback. The Bears lost their Week 9 game against the Miami Dolphins 32-35 and are currently 3-6 this season.

Justin Fields has played all the games for the Bears this season and has recorded 1,322 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and six interceptions so far. In the last game against the Dolphins, he threw for 123 yards and scored three touchdowns.

His rushing game has also been excellent. In the last five games, he has recorded 408 rushing yards in 49 attempts and scored three touchdowns.

But if we compare him to the league's undefeated QB, Philadelphia Eagles' Jalen Hurts, then he definitely falls short. Hurts has started in all the games this season for the Eagles and hasn't lost a single matchup.

Both players are healthy and are not suffering from any injuries. In Week 10, the Bears will face the Detroit Lions, so Fields has an advantage in scoring more fantasy points. The Bears have added another offensive weapon, Chase Claypool, at the trade deadline, which will add value to Fields' passing game performances.

But if we talk about consistency, Hurts has thrown for 200+ yards in seven of the eight games he has played in. In the last three games, he scored two or more touchdowns and is expected to continue with the same performance in the upcoming game against the Washington Commanders.
