Baker Mayfield makes his debut on my Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em list and it should be a decent game for him. Mayfield struggled in his previous game, but he’s at home against a vulnerable Carolina secondary this week.
Aaron Jones, despite splitting carries in last week’s loss to Arizona, still put up double digit fantasy points, making him a must start nearly every week. Brandin Cooks has a tough match-up, but the Bears aren’t great against slot receivers, making him a good option.
Vance McDonald, a Sit ‘Em last week, will face a Raiders defense that was gashed by Travis Kelce for 150+ yards a week ago. Lastly, the Broncos are going against a punchless 49ers offense.
Now for the Sit ‘Ems! Nick Mullens had okay numbers a week ago, but he was facing a bad defense. This week he goes against a much tougher defense in Denver. Marlon Mack will have his work cut out for him in Houston.
DeVante Parker found the end zone last week for the first time in forever, but don’t chase the points. He won’t follow up against the Patriots. Christopher Herndon is a good bench option at tight end at best. Lastly, the Vikings defense might have a tough time slowing down the Seahawks offense.
Good luck in the first round of the playoffs and hopefully my advice serves you well!
