We’ve reached the fantasy football playoffs. Hopefully, your team made the postseason.
If not, better luck next year. However, it’s win-or-go-home mode now for fantasy football managers. And we're here to help as always set those winning lineups.
Should fantasy players start Bo Nix, Patrick Mahomes, or Tua Tagovailoa in Week 15? Which quarterback is the best starting option for fantasy players? Let's take a look.
Should I Start Bo Nix For Fantasy Football?
Nix has surprised many this season. The rookie is the QB8 for the year, averaging 17.4 fantasy points per game. He has 17 passing touchdowns and only eight interceptions despite playing with one of the worst receiving cores in the NFL. More importantly, Nix has been on fire lately.

The rookie has averaged 2.3 passing touchdowns and 19.1 fantasy points per game over his past four contests, totaling two scores in all but one matchup. Meanwhile, Nix faces an Indianapolis Colts defense that has surrendered 16.8 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, the 12th-most in the NFL. He is a solid low-end QB1 option this week.
Should I Start Patrick Mahomes For Fantasy Football?
Mahomes is the top quarterback in the NFL. However, he is only the QB11 in fantasy football, averaging 16.7 fantasy points per game. The superstar has 20 passing touchdowns, totaling eight over the past four weeks. Mahomes has averaged 19.8 fantasy points per game over his past three outings.

More importantly, he faces a Cleveland Browns this week that has held quarterbacks to 242.5 passing yards, 1.5 touchdowns, and 15.8 fantasy points per game since their Week 10 bye. Fantasy players should start Mahomes as a high-end QB2 against the Browns.
Should I Start Tua Tagovailoa For Fantasy Football?
Unfortunately, Tagovailoa missed four games earlier this season with a concussion. The veteran quarterback has played well lately, averaging 325.3 passing yards, 2.8 touchdowns, and 25.2 fantasy points per game over the past month, totaling 23.5 or more in every contest.

Fantasy players should start the former Alabama star as a low-end QB1 against the Houston Texans in Week 15. The Texans have surrendered 16.5 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks, slightly above the league average. However, they have given up 302.7 passing yards, 1.7 touchdowns, and 17.6 fantasy points per game to quarterbacks in their past three matchups.
