Before I get to my Week 10 selections, let’s check last week’s picks for accuracy. 

Good Starts from Week Nine:

Mike Sims-Walker, WR (JAC): Sims-Walker recorded a career-high 147 receiving yards on six receptions and scored a touchdown last week against the Chiefs.

Julius Jones, RB (SEA): Jones had 114 total yards of offense and scored a touchdown against the Lions last week.

Ben Roethlisberger, QB (PIT): Roethlisberger continued his great season last week recording three touchdowns on 233 yards against the Broncos.

Donald Driver, WR (GB): Driver continued to be the Aaron Rodgers number one target, catching four passes for 71 yards and a touchdown.

Bad Starts from Week Nine:

Clinton Portis, RB (WAS): Portis suffered a concussion in the first quarter of last week’s game against the Falcons.

Brian Westbrook, RB (PHI): Westbrook was a game-time decision last week and ended up being sidelined for the second week in a row.

Good Sits from Week Nine:

Anquan Boldin, WR (ARI): Boldin was a game-time decision and decided to sit out last week’s matchup with the Bears to rest his ailing right ankle for one more week.

Nate Washington, WR (TEN): Washington only recorded three receptions for 30 yards in the Titans victory over the 49ers last week.

Bad Sits from Week Nine:

Laurence Maroney, RB (NE): Maroney continued to run the ball well last week recording 82 rushing yards and a touchdown.

Matt Cassel, QB (KC): Cassel had a great game in Week 9 scoring two touchdowns on 262 yards passing against the Jaguars.

Here is my Week Ten list of who to start and who to sit: 

Chicago Bears at San Francisco 49ers                                     

Start: Alex Smith, QB (SF)

Explanation: Although Smith didn’t look too good last week, he should be able to help out your fantasy team this week.  The Bears secondary has been atrocious as of late, giving up three touchdowns per game to opposing quarterbacks.

Sit: Bears Defense/Special Teams
