Sit Em #1
Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks matchup with the smoking hot 4-0 Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5 this season.
The Bengals have not only been hot on the offensive side of the ball this season, but the defensive side as well, with their defensive line looking like the best in football right now.
Wilson and the rest of the Seahawks offense should struggle this week in a matchup that might actually make them the less physically imposing team, in a very rare occasion for one of the best teams in the league.
I don’t see Wilson having much of a game again this week, and his numbers should look like they have for the majority of the season so far, which is quite mediocre.
I wouldn’t start him in Week 5 unless you simply don’t have another option that is viable at all. Don’t expect big things this week from anyone on the Seahawks offense in terms of fantasy production.
