Quarterbacks: Start 'Em

  • Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs): Despite a tough matchup last week, Mahomes remains a top-tier QB1. His ability to extend plays and find open receivers makes him a weekly must-start.
  • Joe Burrow (Bengals): Burrow is gaining momentum. His connection with Ja'Marr Chase is improving, making him a solid start against favorable defenses.

Quarterbacks: Sit 'Em

  • Russell Wilson (Broncos): Wilson has struggled to find consistency this season. Facing a strong defensive line, he’s a risky play this week.
  • Kenny Pickett (Steelers): Pickett's performance has been underwhelming, and he should remain on your bench until he shows signs of improvement.

Running Backs: Start 'Em

  • Bijan Robinson (Falcons): Robinson’s workload makes him a valuable asset. Expect a heavy dose of carries and targets in the passing game.
  • Zack Moss (Colts): With Jonathan Taylor dealing with injuries, Moss steps into a lead-back role, offering significant upside.

Running Backs: Sit 'Em

  • Damien Harris (Bills): Harris’s touches are inconsistent, and the Bills' backfield is crowded. He's a volatile option.
  • AJ Dillon (Packers): Dillon hasn't lived up to expectations. Until he shows more explosiveness, keep him sidelined.

Wide Receivers: Start 'Em

  • Justin Jefferson (Vikings): Jefferson is a target monster and a threat to score every week. Lock him into your lineup.
  • Chris Olave (Saints): Olave is the clear top receiver in New Orleans, with a high floor due to consistent targets.

Wide Receivers: Sit 'Em

  • Michael Thomas (Saints): Thomas's production has declined, and he's no longer a reliable fantasy option.
  • Kadarius Toney (Chiefs): Toney's role in the Chiefs' offense is too inconsistent to trust him in your starting lineup.

Tight Ends: Start 'Em

  • Travis Kelce (Chiefs): Kelce is a dominant force at tight end. Start him with confidence.
  • Darren Waller (Giants): Waller is a key target in the Giants' offense and has the potential for big games.

Tight Ends: Sit 'Em

  • Tyler Higbee (Rams): Higbee's production has been limited, and he’s not a reliable option.
  • Cole Kmet (Bears): Kmet's role in the Bears' offense is too unpredictable to warrant a start.

Actionable Advice: Stay updated with injury reports and adjust your lineup accordingly. Check player matchups and consider potential game scripts. — Wystri: The Loser Gooner?
