Fantasy Football 2017: Thursday Night Football Start Em, Sit Em Week 5
For the first time this season, the NFL has actually given fans a decent game for Thursday Night Football. Who should you start and who should you sit for fantasy football in this game?
Thursday Night Football hasn’t exactly been exciting this season, but this week there’s a decent match-up taking place. The New England Patriots will be facing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in what should be an offense-heavy game.
When looking at this game, there probably won’t be a lot of defense. The Patriots’ defense has been an absolute train wreck so far and while the Bucs’ isn’t nearly as bad, Tom Brady is capable of making any defense look vulnerable.
Before we get into the official starts and sits for this game, I should note that I won’t be listing Tom Brady among the starts. If you lucked out into drafting the future Hall of Famer, you know better than to bench him, unless he’s on a bye. I won’t be wasting a spot to talk about how great Brady is, no matter who he’s up against.
All right, now let’s get to this week’s Start Em/Sit Em for week five of Thursday Night Football!
