Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown's Instant Fantasy Reaction After Week 4

Timothy RappSep 28, 2014

It's about time we all started addressing Antonio Brown by his new title—Captain Consistency. 

With his two touchdown receptions on Sunday versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver has now reached 10 or more fantasy points in 11 of his last 13 games and has seven or more points in 17 of his last 20 contests.     

In other words, Brown must now be considered matchup-proof for fantasy owners. Here's what he did on Sunday:

While his chemistry with quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has aided his fantasy value, it hasn't necessarily done wonders for Roethlisberger's fantasy stock. The quarterback remains a very nice QB2 to have on your bench and a player worth gambling on in certain weeks, but he simply isn't consistent enough through the air to rely on as a top option.

This week certainly would have been a good one to give him a start, however, especially if you had a player like Peyton Manning or Russell Wilson on bye. Here's what Big Ben did on Sunday:

And it doesn't help Roethlisberger's value that the Steelers have a talented runner in Le'Veon Bell they'll continue to feed the ball to. 

In Pittsburgh's offense, the only must-start players for fantasy owners are Brown and Bell. Big Ben will have some big weeks, but not with enough regularity to consider him a weekly QB1. 

Hit me up on Twitter—I'll answer your fantasy questions and make some corny jokes, too. It's more fun than a Jay Cutler Fumblerooski.
