START ‘EM

1. player. 35. . Quarterback. Titans. Marcus Mariota

For the most part, Marcus Mariota has been a disappointment in fantasy football this year. His Titans are 6-4 on the year and look primed for a playoff berth though, and Mariota has a very favorable match-up this week.

The Titans will head to Indianapolis for a week 12 game against the Colts. Indy’s defense has not been very good this year, which provides Mariota with a chance to make his fantasy owners proud.

The last time these two teams met (week six), Mariota threw for 305 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He didn’t make an impact running the ball that day, but he was just coming off of an injury, so that is likely why.

Mariota looks to be healthy now. He should throw the football and run the ball well against this not-so-great Colts defense. Let Mariota make it up to you this week because he should be a great starting option in week 12.
