Fantasy Football Start/Sit Week Seven: Ben Roethlisberger Primed To Dominate

Kevin RobertsOct 20, 2009

We had great success in Week Six, as you can see in the Start/Sit Week Six Review. But now we're on to greater pastures after running high on last week's 12-3 record.

Some of the matchups are difficult to predict, but we'll do our best to lead you in the right direction.

Read on for the five guys in which you should confide, the five to ride the pine, and the five you might want to give a try:

Start

Aaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay Packers

Some guys with Matt Schaub on their team may elect to go the Houston Texan route, but I say nay, revert back to Rodgers, who has a tasty matchup with a horrible Cleveland Browns defense.

Just ask Ben Roethlisberger.

Prediction: 23-30, 314 yds, 3 TD, 0 INT

How Garrett Trade Shakes Up Draft ✍️

Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers

Speaking of Big Ben, you have to like the roll he's on. Combine that with a nice matchup with a likely Antoine Winfield-less Minnesota secondary, and the Steelers passing game could have a field day.

The Vikings will likely stop the run fairly well, anyway, so Big Ben was likely in for a big day, regardless.

Prediction: 22-31, 334 yds, 3 TD, 1 INT

Cedric Benson, RB, Cincinnati Bengals

Benson had an off-game against a supposedly soft Houston run defense, but don't count on that happening against his former team. The Bears basically called him a bust and sent him packing, so he'll be determined to give them an up-close-and-personal view of just how good he is.

Expect a ton of touches. Am I reaching? Maybe, but sometimes you have to ride the wave of upside.

Prediction: 23 car, 144 yds, 2 TD

LaDainian Tomlinson, RB, San Diego Chargers

Tomlinson put up solid yardage against a tough defense in the Denver Broncos, so there's room for optimism with him facing a team he has terrorized over the years.

With Darren Sproles pretty much a non-factor, look for LT to look like his old self for at least one week.

Prediction: 16 car, 97 yds, 2 TD, 3 rec, 29 yds, 0 TD

Santonio Holmes, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

It's amazing how effective the passing game has been this season despite Holmes not yet getting back into the end zone since Week One.

For the same reasons Roethlisberger should have a huge day, you can expect big numbers for Holmes (and Hines Ward).

Prediction: 7 rec, 108 yds, 2 TD
