Who To Sit

More from Fantasy Football

Alex Smith

Kansas City Chiefs fans should not take this the wrong way. Sitting Alex Smith this week isn’t necessarily an indictment of him, but rather just a realization that the Denver defense is good. That is especially true of the pass defense. The Broncos have excellent corners and a very strong pass rush. That will make it tough for Smith to succeed this week.

Chris Conley

Unfortunately, we just have not seen the development from Chris Conley that was hoped for at the beginning of the year. Chiefs fans shouldn’t give up on Conley, but I’m not going to advise anyone to play him in Fantasy Football until he shows he can put up numbers. He’s got a bright future, but he isn’t there yet.

Jeremy Maclin

The Kansas City Chiefs star receiver has had a very disappointing season in 2016. Apart from being largely ineffective in the passing game, Maclin is also dealing with a groin injury. The Chiefs say the injury isn’t a long-term concern. However, for Fantasy Football owners it should be. Until Maclin shows more on the field, I advise to stay away.

The Kansas City Chiefs are in line for a very difficult match up this week in Fantasy Football. The Broncos defense is very tough and is playing at home. I would expect a limited offensive attack from the Chiefs. Of course, that may not be the case. Last time the Chiefs played the Broncos, they put a bit of a stomping on them.
