Is Jordan Love a good pick for fantasy football Week 9?

Jordan Love, who was listed as questionable for this game after dealing with a groin issue, is expected to start for the Packers on Sunday. ESPN ranked him as QB12 this week.

Love is projected to rack up 265.9 passing yards and 2.3 passing touchdowns, meaning he would have a busy game against his divisional rivals. He's expected to get 10.7 rushing yards to add more numbers to the stat sheet.

Is Baker Mayfield a good pick for fantasy football Week 9?

Baker Mayfield is right behind Love on the ESPN ranking for this week. The Buccaneers have struggled to find consistency after eight weeks of action (4-4) and a win against the Kansas City Chiefs could be a turning point in their season.

Mayfield is projected to collect 216.9 passing yards,1.5 passing touchdowns and 12.1 rushing yards. The Chiefs are the only unbeaten team in the NFL this season and beating them could put the Bucs in a good position moving forward
