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

SIT ‘EM

Well, we now know that without Ezekiel Elliott, the Dallas Cowboys are hot garbage. Many hoped that Dak Prescott would be able to make some noise and shred the label of needing Elliott in order to succeed, but that has not been the case at all.

Without Ezekiel Elliott, this Cowboys offense is nothing.

As a result, you should keep Prescott on the bench this week and probably for the duration of the season. The offensive line hasn’t been as dominant, allowing Prescott to get hit more frequently, and that’s definitely exposing him.

Last week against the Chargers, Prescott threw for just 179 yards and was picked off twice. He was also sacked twice and did not have a single touchdown on the day (not passing or rushing).

Without Ezekiel Elliott, this Cowboys offense is nothing, and teams know that now, so they’re going to force Prescott to make big plays without relying on his All-Pro running back. It hasn’t panned out all that well for Dak Prescott throughout the first half of Zeke’s suspension.

Oh and for what it’s worth, Washington allowed Eli Manning to throw for just 113 yards last week, but a lot of that was more on how bad the Giants are. Still… Keep Dak Prescott on the bench this week.
