Week 13 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Ben Roethlisberger Will Struggle vs. Bengals

Ben Roethlisberger has had a decent season for the Pittsburgh Steelers this season, but he hasn't exactly lit up the scoreboard.

He ranks 12th among quarterbacks in fantasy points per game and he's struggled in recent weeks.

In Week 13, Roethlisberger faces a tough Cincinnati Bengals pass defense and he will struggle, even at Heinz Field.

 

Here's your Start 'Em, Sit 'Em for the week.

 

Start 'Em: Tim Tebow, QB, Denver Broncos

Despite his accuracy problems, Tim Tebow has actually been a consistent fantasy football performer this season because he can give you points with his arm and his legs.

In Week 13, Tebow faces the Minnesota Vikings, who just so happen to be giving up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.

Even with Tebow's accuracy issues, he should have a big game against a bad pass defense and I could see him giving you 20 fantasy points or more.

 

Sit 'Em: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers

In Yahoo! Sports fantasy leagues that count fractions, Roethlisberger is actually averaging only 0.2 more fantasy points per game than Tebow.

Last week, he had only 11 fantasy points against the Kansas City Chiefs, and against the Bengals in Week 10, he had only 12 fantasy points.

Roethlisberger faces the Bengals again in Week 13, and I don't see it working out any better for him.

The Bengals are giving up the sixth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.
