Fantasy Football 2017: Thursday Night Football Start Em, Sit Em Week 13

START ‘EM

Kirk Cousins got off to a slow start last week, but a lot of that was due to the lack of protection he was getting up front. He was sacked six times against the Giants.

This week, however, Cousins should do better. The Cowboys defense surrendered over 400 yards passing to Philip Rivers last week and were unable to pick him off at all. The Dallas D isn’t that awful on a week to week basis, but Cousins should put up decent numbers.

Per Michael Fabiano of NFL.com,

"Dallas has also allowed a top-six fantasy quarterback in each of their last two games."

Last week Cousins threw for 242 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. He should have had a better game against the Giants and I think this week, he’ll put up good numbers… hopefully his offensive line can protect him better.
