Week 12 Start em/Sit em



Start em
 

Brent Celek


Brent Celek is really emerging as a viable option for the Eagles. I’ve been talking up this guy for a few weeks now, and the trend seems to be continuing, as he’s become a major target for whomever the Eagles put in at QB.  Don’t be fooled by the way the Patriots secondary took apart the Chiefs… It’s not very good. Celek will continue to get his looks and I expect him to get into the endzone this week for the first time since Week 8.





Tim Tebow

In a dual QB league, this one is obvious. In a single QB league, not so much. There are a lot of good QBs to start out there, but the rushing threat that Tebow brings to the table has to count for something extra. Tebow has seen the Chargers defense already this year and almost brought his team back from the dead after relieving Kyle Orton at half time. If Tebow can figure out how to stretch the D like he did last time he matched up against the Bolts, he may be looking at his first 200+ yard game of the season throwing, and another 50+ rushing with a touch down in each category. You heard it here first.


Sit em 

DeAngelo Williams

Receiving a lot of emails on this guy who found a little running room on Sunday, giving him his best outing since week 5 against New Orleans. He rushed for 73 yards on 10 carries and grabbed +30 on receptions. Don’t be fooled by this performance… This is still not the DeAngelo from the past. Cam Newton and Jonathan Stewart are, and will continue to be the rushing attack for this athletic offense, and DeAngelo will continue to receive less than 11 touches, even against the abysmal run D of the Indianapolis Colts. If he busts one, I apologize, but you sit him because his lack of touches makes the big yards unlikely.

Chris Ogbonnaya
Last week we saw a stellar performance from the Cleveland Browns interim premier back, rushing for 115 yards on 21 carries with a TD. Here’s the kicker; Ogbannaya obtained half of those yards on two carries. While the Jacksonville run D has been solid this year, they are still a bad team that makes mistakes, and these two plays were examples of that.
Going up against Cinci, Ogbannaya is expected to get the majority of the touches (Thomas Clayton might see some action), but I don’t expect it to total more than 55 yards.
