Fantasy Start/Sit

Hey guys, today I will hopefully help anybody who needs help with who to start and sit this week in fantasy football. However for the rest of the season this segment will be on Friday rather than Saturday.
Byes- Bills, Browns, Jets, Raiders, Rams, Vikings

QBs
Start of the Week
Tom Brady- Tom Brady will be going up against the 21st Ranked Dolphins Pass D, not to mention their Ranked 6th run D. The reason I mention that is because the patriots don't run it too often anyway, and they will likely attempt to take out the dolphins through the air. Also Brady had a bye week to prepare for this game. Look for big numbers out of Brady this Week.



Other Qbs To Start

Philip Rivers- The Giants have really struggled against the deep pass lately, which Rivers Excels at.
Peyton Manning- He is simply too good to bench
Matt Schaub- The texans will likely be needing to use their explosive passing game to stay in this one.
Matt Hasselbeck- Though he hasn't been the best, he has a pretty easy game against the 27th ranked pass defense in the NFL.

Qbs To Sit
Sit of the Week
Kyle Orton- After a terrible game last week, Orton goes up against the always tough pass defensed Steelers. Will all the pressure thrown at him, orton will likely struggle to get the ball off to his good recievers.

Other Qbs to Sit
Josh Freeman- Not only is this his first career start, but he goes against the 9th Ranked Pass Defense in the Packers.
Jake Delhomme- Sure he had a decent game last week, but now he goes against the Saints, who had 3 picks on Ryan last week.
Eli Manning- He has struggled alot lately, and the Giants will like use the running game to get downfield against the Chargers.

RBs
Start of the Week
Brandon Jacobs- Jacobs will likely be carrying the weight of the game on his shoulders. Eli manning has been independable, not to mention the Chargers rank 27th in Run Defense. Look for big numbers out of Jacobs and small numbers out of Eli.


Other Runningbacks to Start
Michael Turner- The Redskins have suprisingly the 2nd ranked pass defense in the NFL, but rank 22nd against the run.
Maurice Jones Drew- One of the best Runningbacks in the game vs. the 26th ranked rush defense= Huge numbers.
Ronnie Brown- The dolphins won't try to pass very much against the 5th ranked Pats pass defense, and the wildcat has continued to work for them.
Pierre Thomas- The Panthers rank first in the league against the pass, so the Saints may run the ball more than usual.

Runningbacks to Sit
Sit of the Week
Matt Forte- He continues to dissapoint fantasy owners everywhere, and this week he goes up against the 8th ranked Run, and the Cardinals rank 20th in Passing D, so Jay Cutler will likely pass the ball alot.


Other Runningbacks To Sit
Ladainian Tomlinson- Though he is getting better, the Chargers will likely pass against the weak Giants pass d.
Knowshon Moreno- He isn't the greatest, and the Steelers rank first in the league at stopping the run.
Beanie Wells/ Tim Hightower- Doesn't matter which one, the Cardinals rank dead last on the ground.

WRs
Start of the Week
Vincent Jackson- The Giants have shown weaknesses in defending the pass. Jackson went up against the best corner in the league and still had 103 yards and a touchdown. Expect to continue to see these types of numbers this week against the Giants.

Other WRs to Start
Randy Moss/ Wes Welker- The two main targets for Brady this week, who should put up huge numbers this week.
Nate Burleson (Sleeper)- Nate Who? Hes going up against the Lions, so start him.
DeSean Jackson- One of the most explosive players in the game going up against the
22nd ranked pass D.
Andre Johnson- With Owen Daniels out, he will be targeted even more.

WRs To Sit
Mario Manningham/ Steve Smith (Giants)- If the Giants are going to pass to anyone, it will most likely be the Tight End
Brandon Marshall- If Orton Doesn't play well, how can you expect the Wide Recievers to play well?
Marques Colston- Suprised? Don't be, Carolina is the best pass defense in the league.

TEs

Start of the Week
Dallas Clark- He is one of the best recieving TEs in the league and has Peyton Manning throwing him the ball. Why wouldn't you start him against a decent but not great Texans pass defense?

Other TEs To Start
Kevin Boss- Most of the yards let up by the San Diego Pass defense has been by the Tight End.
Antonio Gates- With Jackson playing better, Coaches may start focusing their players more on him and leave Gates open.
Todd Heap- A good target for Flacco against the 30th ranked pass defense in the Bengals.
Tony Schefler- Though the Steelers are great at defense, Orton may look to take some safe dumps to the TE during this game.

TEs to Sit
Heath Miller- The Broncos are 8th in the League in Pass Defense, and will likely focus on one of the Leagues best tight ends.
Ben Watson- With Brady tossing it deep to Moss all day, he will likely use Welker to run those tight end like routes and use Watson less.
Tony Gonzalez- The Falcons will run all over the Redskins, so they probably won't need to pass too much.

Defenses
Start of the Week
Pittsburgh- They are 8th ranked overall defense in the league, and after seeing how Kyle Orton Performed Last week, it don't expect much better out of the Broncos.


Other Defenses to Start
Atlanta- Washington is pathetic on offense.
Green Bay- Against a rookie quarterback on his first start, expect a pick fest.
New Orleans- Jake Delhomme Has the most picks in the nfl, so does the Saints defense.

Defenses to Sit
You Know Most of the Defenses you don't want to start, but The only two I recommend is the Eagles and Cowboys. Both of these teams have a history of big scores against eachother, and they are two of the NFLs most productive offenses.

Thanks for reading guys, hope this advice helps you at all.
