Fantasy Football Week 9: Mark Sanchez, Tim Tebow and Borderline QBs to Start

Fantasy QBs have been an absolute crap-shoot this year.

One week Brees is dropping 62 points on the Colts, the next he’s getting pummeled by the winless Rams.

It’s a different story every week and unless you have the luxury of owning Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady, deciding who to start at QB is a weekly process.

Here are some of the best bets to have gigantic Week 9s:

Mark Sanchez @ Buffalo Bills

Sanchez has at least two TDs passes in every game but one this season. Sure he has struggled at times, but Sanchez is quietly a top 12 fantasy QB.

He will be going against the Bills 24^th-ranked pass defense that has a horrific pass rush (aside from last week).

Expect another big day from Sanchez.

Tim Tebow @ Oakland Raiders

Timmy Touchdown may struggle to complete a pass, but he is fantasy gold.

In the worst QB performance of the season, Tebow still put up double-digit points.  

It’s the dual-threat of Tebow that gives him so much value. He averages over six yards per rush and carries the ball at least 6-to-12 times a game.

Considering he’s the goal line back, Tebow is going to be involved in 80-90 percent of all Broncos touchdowns.

Don’t be blinded by last Sunday, Tebow is a must-start.

Tony Romo vs. Seattle Seahawks

The most inconsistent QB in the league, Romo feasts on the bad teams and gets devoured by the good ones.

Lucky for him, he’s playing a horrific Seahawks team that is one week removed from giving up big-time fantasy numbers against game-manager Andy Dalton.

Expect the Cowboys to throw the ball early and often on the below-average Seattle pass defense, especially when you consider they are surprisingly stout against the run.

Romo isn’t trust worthy enough to start every week, but you have to take advantage when he has a matchup like this.

Joe Flaco @ Pittsburgh Steelers

This one is a complete gut call, but I think Flacco is able to take advantage of all the Steelers injuries on defense to shred them for the second time this season.

If you are potentially without all three of your starting linebackers…the opposing QB should have a field day, right?
