This is the best Thursday Night Football match-up so far and that makes it very appealing for fantasy football aspects.

Obviously owners are going to start Todd Gurley and Brandin Cooks, but the rest of the Rams offense has tons of players worth keeping in your starting lineup. I mentioned Cooper Kupp with my first Start ‘Em suggestion and he’s been top notch for owners so far.

The defense is worth starting too because the Rams D has been electric to this point. While they’ll be missing their two starting corners, they’re still a favorable match-up against a Vikings team that got taken to the woodshed last week by Buffalo.

As for the sits, Kirk Cousins isn’t a great option this week. He’s not a MUST sit, but if you have better options, roll with one of them. A rough outing last week mixed with a tough Rams defense isn’t a good recipe for success.

The Minnesota defense is one to keep on the bench too. The Rams offense can fly and they’ll be putting up a lot of points this week. If the Bills were able to roll against the Vikings D, Los Angeles shouldn’t have any problem whatsoever.

Good luck this week!
