Fantasy football playoffs are inching closer! Who should you start and who should you sit in week 12 of the regular season?

Fantasy football has just six weeks left (assuming it ends when the regular NFL season does), but the playoffs are likely kicking off shortly. This is crunch time in fantasy football and by this point, you probably know whether or not your team is destined for the playoffs or participating in a consolation bracket.

These next few weeks could make or break your team. The bye weeks are over, so we’ll see a full 16 games played every week for the rest of the season.

Before we dive into the Starts and Sits, let’s take a look at my best prediction and my worst prediction from a week ago.

LEIGH’S HIT OF THE WEEK – STARTING CHARGERS DEFENSE/SPECIAL TEAMS

Nathan Peterman threw five interceptions. ‘Nuff said.

LEIGH’S MISS OF THE WEEK – STARTING REX BURKHEAD

Rex Burkhead was a disappointment for fantasy owners last week. He only had five carries for 16 yards and four receptions for 21 yards. Of course, I could have went with the Sterling Shepard, who I suggested to start, but that news didn’t come out until late on Saturday and I typically write these on Wednesday or Thursday.

All right, onto the Starts!
