Fantasy Football 2017: Thursday Night Football Start Em, Sit Em Week 8
START ‘EM
Despite their inability to stop the run, the Ravens defense and special teams is still a very start-able unit in fantasy football. They’re the seventh best team against the air attack, according to NFL.com, which makes them a great option against a team with a backup quarterback.
The Ravens are also in the top half of the league in sacking the quarterback, which should be another perk when it comes to starting them this week. There isn’t much else to like about the Ravens when it comes to fantasy football, but their defense seems like an easy choice.
Justin Tucker is also a good choice, but I didn’t need to waste a Start ‘Em spot to tell you that. He’s also likely unavailable to pick up off the waiver wire due to being the best kicker in the NFL.
Oh right, where were we? Start Baltimore’s defense for this Thursday night match-up against the Fins.
