Fantasy Football 2015: Start Em, Sit Em for Week Six

Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks are off to a very slow start this season, starting 2-3 and not looking like the team they have been in recent years.

The Seahawks had a tough matchup last week against the surprisingly stingy Cincinnati Bengals defense.

I had Wilson as a sit last week for this reason. Not thinking he would be able to succeed against the aggressive Bengals front seven.

He ended up struggling to put up good fantasy numbers and now has a similar problem this week as the Seahawks matchup with the Carolina Panthers, who are ranked 3rd against quarterbacks in terms of fantasy points allowed.

Russell Wilson is one of the top options at quarterback in the NFL for fantasy football purposes, but given tough matchups, he hasn’t come through for the most part in his career.

If you can, I would go ahead and sit Wilson this week, as I see him struggling for a second straight week.
