Week six of the NFL season is underway and it’s time to get those fantasy football lineups set! Who should you start and who should you sit for week six?

We’re heading into the sixth week of NFL action and it’d be difficult to be 5-0 in your fantasy football leagues at this point, but if you are, congrats! This is the time of the season where you’ll start to figure out what kind of team you have. Are you going to be vying for a playoff spot or will you be on the outside looking in?

This week might be a bit tougher for you as far as getting those lineups set, as this will be the first week where more than two teams are on bye weeks. Those teams are listed below.

Before we dive into my featured five, let’s check out how I did with my selections last week, starting with my suggested Start ‘Ems.

  • Jameis Winston (17.5) – He was fine, but expectations were higher.
  • LeSean McCoy (2.3) – Eek. Sorry about this.
  • Larry Fitzgerald (11.8) – Decent outing by the future Hall of Famer.
  • Tyler Eifert (3.4) – That’s the last time I recommend a Bengals offensive player.
  • Philadelphia D/ST (35) – Boom goes the dynamite!

Now, let’s see how I did with my featured five Sit ‘Ems.

  • Marcus Mariota (8.6) – He struggled to do much, as expected.
  • Matt Breida (27.9) – If only I had swapped him and McCoy, I’d have looked like a genius!
  • Terry McLaurin (8.1) – Washington is where receivers go to die.
  • Trey Burton (4.6) – Not a surprising lack of production here.
  • Denver D/ST (11) – Broncos forced their first turnover. That was the difference here.

Not my best week, but it could have been a lot worse. Time to dive into this week’s Start ‘Em and Sit ‘Em candidates!
