Jeremiyah Love or Rashee Rice: Who Should You Start?

Rice's target share beats Love's tougher game script and health question

Jeremiyah Love actually out-projects Rashee Rice on paper, but that gap shrinks fast once you factor in what's dragging his floor down. Arizona's implied total of just 17.0 points caps how many touches turn into production, and the Questionable tag adds real downside that a straight point projection can't capture. Rice, meanwhile, sits in a game state (Chiefs implied at 22.5, spread near even) that all but guarantees volume, and a 30% target share on a bell-cow route diet gives him a much steadier path to his number. This isn't really about who scores more on paper — it's about whose role survives contact with Sunday.

What flips it: A cleared injury report for Love paired with Arizona's implied total climbing toward the high teens would tighten this considerably.
