Week 14 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Matt Ryan Will Bounce Back After Letdown

Ryan RudnanskyDec 8, 2011

Atlanta Falcons franchise quarterback Matt Ryan had a rough game against the Houston Texans in Week 13. He completed 42 percent of his passes and threw two interceptions, giving fantasy owners a mediocre 13 fantasy points in the process.

However, the Texans are a top defense this season, and Ryan is a top quarterback.

Ryan will rise while another big-time quarterback won't give fantasy owners a whole lot.

Here's your "Start 'Em, Sit 'Em" for Week 14.

Start 'Em: Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta Falcons

Matt Ryan has averaged 17 fantasy points this season, ranking ninth among quarterbacks.

However, it wasn't a surprise he struggled against the Texans given, well, a lot of quarterbacks have this season.

But Ryan faces the Carolina Panthers in Week 14, who have an average pass defense. The Falcons' franchise quarterback will bounce back against the Panthers and make fantasy owners happy in the process.

Sit 'Em: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Pittsburgh Steelers

As good a quarterback as Ben Roethlisberger is in real life, he's never been a great fantasy asset, given the Steelers offensive game plan year in and year out.

When he faces a tough pass defense, his numbers fall even further, as evidenced against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 13.

Roethlisberger faces the Cleveland Browns in Week 14, who, believe it or not, have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.

You can find better options out there this week.
