SIT ‘EM

. Quarterback. Vikings. Kirk Cousins. 2. player. 60

Kirk Cousins did not do well against the Bills last week, but the Vikings as a whole struggled in week three (except for Thielen). With Cousins having a rough game a week ago and a tougher defense on this week’s schedule, it’s probably best to keep the new Minnesota quarterback off your starting roster.

Cousins had just ten fantasy points last week and the only reason he mustered up that many was due to his team being so far behind and him being forced to throw the football. He attempted 55 passes and completed 40 of them, but didn’t find the end zone until the fourth quarter. Not exactly what people who started Cousins last week had in mind.

If Buffalo dealt Cousins fits, just imagine what the Rams will be able to do to him. They might not have their two starting corners, but that defensive front is scary and will be after Cousins all night long.

Keep Captain Kirk on the bench this week.
