Joe Burrow vs Kyler Murray fantasy outlook: Who should you start in Week 15?

Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals and Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals are two quarterbacks poised to be big stars in the NFL. Both were drafted number one overall in the NFL Draft and won the Heisman Trophy in their collegiate careers. However, when it comes to fantasy football this season, both quarterbacks have been very different.

Until Week 15, the Cincinnati Bengals star has been great for fantasy football owners. He's averaged 22.4 fantasy points per game, including a 39.2 fantasy performance back in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Arizona Cardinals quarterback has averaged 18.2 fantasy points per game this season. Murray is currently ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury. Moving forward, Burrow is the best option to start in Week 15 and beyond.

Burrow and the Bengals will face Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15. The Buccaneers defense has allowed 206 fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. The same defense has also allowed the sixth-most touchdown passes with 20.

Expect the Bengals star to have at least two touchdowns versus Tampa Bay, as he's thrown at least two touchdowns in nine games this season. With Murray's fourth season coming to an end, let's take a look at how the quarterbacks have played this season.
