Fantasy Football 2017: Start Em, Sit Em for Week 14
SIT ‘EM
Blake Bortles. 1. player. 52. . Quarterback. Jaguars
Don’t be fooled by Blake Bortles‘ sparkling performance in week 13 against the Colts. He was playing against one of the worst defenses in football and it showed.
In the two weeks prior to this Colts game, Bortles hadn’t even gotten past the 200 yard mark.
Bortles finished last week with 309 yards and two touchdowns as the Jaguars continued to be one of the most fun teams to watch this year. This week, don’t fall for the Bortles epidemic. He’s got a much tougher match-up with the Seahawks coming to sunny Florida.
In the two weeks prior to this Colts game, Bortles hadn’t even gotten past the 200 yard mark. He’s only thrown 14 touchdowns so far this year and the Jags haven’t been winning games because of him. They’ve been winning thanks to their run game and amazing defense.
So no, I wouldn’t advise getting cute and starting Blake Bortles against the Seahawks this weekend. It should be a really good game though and pretty low scoring.
