Fantasy Football 2019: Thursday Night Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Week 14

The Cowboys and Bears will take the field on Thursday for one of the final Thursday night games of 2019. Many fantasy football players will be called upon in this game. Here’s who to start and sit.

We have arrived, fantasy footballers. It’s playoff time for most of you and this game may be crucial to many when it comes to fantasy football playoff season.

The Cowboys, as always, are a fascinating team to watch altogether. They are somehow still leading the NFC East with a 6-6 record and control their own destiny for hosting a playoff game. The Bears, on the other hand, have virtually no chance of the playoffs, but anything is possible, and they will look to stay competitive for at least one more week.

Now in December, weather is something fantasy fans will need to keep track of, especially with a night game in Chicago. However, all signs are looking good as of right now with the wind in the area, but fantasy owners need to check back before game time in case snow is on the horizon.

The Bears are coming off a win against a terrible Lions team and the Cowboys are a franchise at a crossroads. Ezekiel Elliot has been a major fantasy disappointment, though he should still be started everywhere.

Much of the rest of the guys in this game have been fringe-starters this season, meaning it could require one of these guys going off for a win in round one for you. This week will emphasize minimizing risk as much as possible, especially on Thursday night.

With this being the first week of the fantasy playoffs, this will be the last article I’ll be writing as a result. That being said, let’s get to the Cowboys, Bears fantasy implications.
