Here is a quick rundown of the latest news on the most important injuries heading into Week 1:
The biggest injury news in the fantasy world obviously revolves around Cardinals RB Chris “Beanie” Wells, who missed practice on Thursday. Wells is dealing with a knee issue and it certainly sounds like he can be classified as a dreaded “game-time decision.”
The Week 17 start em, sit em lineup advice post is up.
——————–
Well, I was not a very good QB prognosticator last week.
I looked at Tony Romo’s struggles and his matchup (OAK) and figured he was a good sit candidate. What I failed to consider was his consistently strong play on Thanksgiving Day. He ended up busting my QB sit ‘em pick.
I looked at Carson Palmer playing the Browns and figured he was about as slam dunk a start candidate as there was, especially after the Browns made Matthew Stafford look like Drew Brees last weekend. Palmer, however, threw only one TD pass and had only 110 yards passing overall. Solid numbers, but probably not top 10 or 12.
Other than the QBs though, I was pretty solid, nailing the Justin Forsett start for the highlight of the week.
We’re now one monster fantasy game (New England-New Orleans on Monday night) away from Week 13, so let’s take a quick peek into the future and answer your burning start ‘em, sit ‘em questions for this week.
Week 10 has passed and fantasy owners are on the grind to get over the top and make a run to either lock up a playoff spot, or are trying to thrash their way into a playoff spot.
Regardless of your position, you are here to see what week 11 has in store, so let’s get to it with our weekly play ‘em/bench ‘em feature here at MSF.
