RECORD LAST WEEK: 13-7
OVERALL: 56-41-1
New York (A) at New England
Start: Rob Gronkowski, TE, NE
Gronk is finally back to “must start” status. Considering the few weapons the Patriots have to work with, Brady’s favorite target will see plenty of action.
Sit: Geno Smith, QB, NYJ
While he could have been worse last week, he could have been a lot better too. Stay away.
Miami at Chicago
Start: Brandon Marshall, WR, CHI
Both Marshall and Alshon Jeffrey are coming off a big win, and you know Marshall would like some words with his former squad.
Sit: Mike Wallace, WR, MIA
Matched up against either Tim Jennings or rookie sensation Kyle Fuller will be a bad week for Wallace.
Atlanta at Baltimore
Start: Julio Jones, WR, ATL
You really think Jones is going to have bad weeks back-to-back? His owners hope he is not reverting to bad habits.
Sit: Justin Forsett, RB, BAL
He has been a fantasy surprise thus far, but it is doubtful Joe Flacco is going to throw five touchdowns in one half again.
Tennessee at Washington
Start: Kirk Cousins, QB, WSH
While Cousins may throw a bunch of interceptions each week, he does give a high volume of yards as well.
Sit: Tennessee Defense
This defense just gave up almost 400 yards to Jacksonville. No thank you.
Seattle at St. Louis
Start: Marshawn Lynch, RB, SEA
If Lynch does not get violent against the Rams after that loss last Sunday, I will eat my hat.
Sit: Tavon Austin, WR, STL
He may never be used to his fullest potential in St. Louis.
Cleveland at Jacksonville
Start: Brian Hoyer, QB, CLE
The Jaguars held Charlie Whitehurst in check. That does not mean much. Ride the hot hand.
Sit: Blake Bortles, QB, JAX
His career is actually off to a good start (better than Blaine Gabbert’s but that is not saying much). However, this defense is better than the last one he faced.
Cincinnati at Indianapolis
Start: Andrew Luck, QB, IND
This will be a shootout, and Luck has the best chance to put up the best numbers.
Sit: Giovani Bernard, RB, CIN
Dalton and Luck will decide this game. Bernard may not get the carries.
Minnesota at Buffalo
Start: Buffalo Defense
They have a real chance to do some real damage this week, especially after Teddy Bridgewater’s awful game.
Sit: Matt Asiata, RB, MIN
Facing the best run defense in the league, Asiata may find himself losing his job completely to Jerick McKinnon.
New Orleans at Detroit
Start: Brandin Cooks, WR, NO
Look for this to be the week Cooks breaks out with the Saints running game in flux.
Sit: Golden Tate, WR, DET
Calvin Johnson will miss the game again, so the Saints will look to key in on Detroit’s next best option.
Carolina at Green Bay
Start: Eddie Lacy, RB, GB
If Rodgers gets hot, this game could be over in a hurry, meaning a lot of carries for Lacy.
Sit: Cam Newton, QB, CAR
With the Panthers running game depleted on an entirely new scale, Newton finds himself in a bad situation at Lambeau.
