Welcome to the best time of the year Sports Fans. Here is where I will tell you who I think you should start or who I think you should sit for your fantasy team. This year, I will give you your obvious must starts (guys you start every week no matter who they play), a few players from each position who you should start, a sleeper start em’, and a must sit em’. Also, I will be giving projections for those players. If you have more questions, don’t forget to join me for my Sunday Morning Start Em’/Sit Em’ Chat from 10:45am to 12:45pm. Go to www.Sportmeisters.com for more info. Enough talk, let’s get down to business!
QB Obvious Must Starts
Drew Brees – NO vs. STL – Projection: 350 Yards, 3 TD, 1 INT
Peyton Manning – IND vs. NE – Projection: 300 Yards, 2 TD, 1 INT
Tom Brady – NE vs. IND – Projection: 300 Yards, 2 TD, 1 INT
Philip Rivers – SD vs. PHI – Projection: 275 Yards, 2 TD, 0 INT
Aaron Rodgers – GB vs. DAL – Projection: 285 Yards, 2 TD, 1 INT
Kurt Warner – ARI vs. SEA – Projection: 295 Yards, 2 TD, 1 INT
QB Start Em’
Brett Favre – MIN vs. DET – Favre has 16 touchdowns to just three interceptions on the year and threw for 155 yards and two touchdowns earlier in the year against the Lions, who are ranked 31st against the pass. Start Em’. Projection: 275 Yards, 3 TD, 0 INT
Joe Flacco – BAL vs. CLE – Wasn’t extremely accurate last week, but should bounce back nicely against the 22nd ranked pass defense of the Cleveland Browns this week. Start Em’. Projection: 255 Yards, 2 TD, 0 INT
Mark Sanchez – NYJ vs. JAX – Sanchez wasn’t all that bad in the last two games before the bye week. He threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns without throwing an interception, but he did fumble twice. This week, he faces the 25th ranked pass defense of the Jacksonville Jaguars and could be a nice bye week filler and a possible Sleeper Start Em’. Projection: 240 Yards, 2 TD, 1 INT
QB Sit Em’
Matt Ryan – ATL vs. CAR – Has thrown just two touchdowns to four interceptions in the last two games and faces the sixth ranked pass defense of the Carolina Panthers this week. Sit Em’. Projection: 225 Yards, 1 TD, 1 INT
Carson Palmer – CIN vs. PIT – Palmer was decent in the week three matchup against Pittsburgh, throwing for 183 yards and a touchdown. However, that was when Pittsburgh was without S Troy Polamalu. Pittsburgh is ranked 14th vs. the pass and are coming off a week where the held the Denver Broncos offense scoreless. Sit Em’. Projection: 230 Yards, 1 TD, 1 INT
Kyle Orton – DEN vs. WAS – Threw three interceptions last week and faces the best pass defense in the NFL this week in the Washington Redskins. Must Sit Em’. Projection: 175 Yards, 1 TD, 2 INT
