A toss-up

On Sleeper's projections, Jordan Love and Drew Lock are projected level. That's close to a coin flip: on these projections neither is the better start, and an injury report or a projection update before kickoff can tip it.

What the call rests on

  • Jordan Love: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Nov 4, 6:50 PM ET
  • Drew Lock: Sleeper's projection, last changed Wed, Nov 4, 6:50 PM ET
  • Sleeper's projections read Wed, Nov 4, 7:01 PM ET.
  • Injury statuses read Wed, Nov 4, 7:01 PM ET, with the projections (hourly). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.

What could change it before kickoff

  • Drew Lock's status (questionable): if he's ruled out, Jordan Love is the start.
  • A projection update of 0 points or more in the other direction flips the call; Sleeper keeps adjusting its projections until kickoff, and this page reads them again at most an hour after it last did.
