Fantasy Football 2019: Start Em, Sit Em for Week 2
START ‘EM – QB
. Quarterback. Dallas Cowboys. Dak Prescott. 1. player. 123
Not a lot of teams received more hype after week one than the Dallas Cowboys and for good reason! They were absolutely dominant in their win over the G-Men and they’ll look to up their record to 2-0 when they travel to D.C. for a date with the Redskins this weekend.
Dak Prescott proved he’s more than deserving of an extension after throwing for four touchdowns and over 400 yards against the Giants last week. The Redskins secondary was destroyed by the Eagles last week and that spells good things for those of you who drafted Prescott.
Start him in week two.
SIT ‘EM – QB
Minnesota Vikings. Kirk Cousins. 2. player. 60. . Quarterback
The Vikings had a big win on Sunday, but not much of it had to do with Kirk Cousins‘ abilities. In fact, very little of it had to do with that. Cousins finished the victory against the Falcons with just ten pass attempts, completing eight of them for 98 yards and a touchdown.
Minnesota won the game convincingly, so who cares how Cousins did? Well, his fantasy owners might care, and they’ll likely want to sit him in week two, as Cousins’ Vikings will travel to Lambeau for the Packers’ home opener.
Green Bay’s defense looked much improved against the Bears in the season opener last week and with Cousins’ tendencies to struggle both on the road and against good teams, this doesn’t bode well for the signal caller up north. Keep Kirk on the bench this week.
