To help you win one of your final fantasy matchups of the week, here are my Week 15 fantasy football players to start and sit:

Guys to Start:

QB Matt Ryan, ATL (@ NYG) – Ryan faces the 27th-ranked pass defense, so expect a big game from “Matty Ice” this weekend.

RB Darren McFadden, OAK (vs. KC) – McFadden has been a questionable start all year, but when he faced the Chiefs in Week 8, McFadden rushed for 114 yards. Start RunDMC with confidence this weekend.

WR Justin Blackmon, JAC (@ MIA) – Miami is currently ranked 25th in the NFL against the pass, so expect Blackmon to abuse the Dolphins’ lackluster corners this weekend.

TE Greg Olsen, CAR (@ SD) – The tight end has caught four touchdowns passes in his last five games alone. He is a must start this weekend.

Guys to Sit:

QB Joe Flacco, BAL (vs. DEN) – Flacco has yet another tough matchup this weekend, as he faces a Denver defense that is ranked seventh against the pass and sixth against the rush.

RB Michael Turner, ATL (vs. NYG) – Turner is getting fewer and fewer carries as the weeks go on, and he seems to be losing more carries each week to Jacquizz Rodgers. Leave Turner on your bench in Week 15.

WR Brandon Lloyd, NE (vs. SF) – Lloyd may have hauled in 89 yards and a score last weekend, but expect him to have a much tougher time finding space against an angry 49ers’ defense.

TE Owen Daniels, HOU (vs. IND) – Daniels has been plagued by drops lately and has only caught 5 passes in the last two games despite being targeted 13 times.

To help you win one of your final matchups of the year, here are my Week 12 fantasy football players to start and sit:

Guys to Start:

QB Eli Manning, NYG (@ WSH) – Manning may only have three touchdowns in his last four games, but all three of them came last weekend. He has finally turned the corner on his mid-season slump and should be considered a great starter this weekend. He will easily eclipse 300 yards and 2 touchdowns in the game against an overaggressive Washington secondary.

RB Beanie Wells, ARI (@ NYJ) – Wells scored twice last week in his return to action, so expect another solid outing from him against a New York defense that is ranked 30th against the run.

WR Brandon Marshall, CHI (vs. SEA) – Seattle’s secondary is looming with uncertainty,  so expect Marshall to torch them as home.

TE Owen Daniels, HOU (@ TEN) – Daniels has scored a touchdown in three of his last four games and has become Matt Schaub’s favorite red zone option.

Guys to Sit:

QB Joe Flacco, BAL (vs. PIT) – Flacco only has one multi-touchdown game in his last eight performances. Now factor in that he plays a tough Pittsburgh defense in Week 13, and it would be wise to leave him on the bench once again.

RB Marshawn Lynch, SEA (@ CHI) – Lynch had four straight 100-yard games before being held to 46 yards on 19 carries last week against the Dolphins. Lynch will have another rough game against an elite Chicago defense, so do not expect much more than 60 rushing yards.

WR Greg Jennings, GB (vs. MIN) – Jennings will most likely return this weekend, but it is better to wait one more week before starting him.

TE Heath Miller, PIT (@ BAL) – The Steelers are down to their third-string quarterback, Charlie Batch, so do not expect many fantasy points from any Pittsburgh players this weekend.

To help you set your final lineup this weekend, here are my Week 12 fantasy football players to start and sit:

Guys to Start:

QB Andrew Luck, IND (vs. BUF) – Buffalo has allowed 19 passing touchdowns this season, so expect the rookie quarterback to have a monster game at home this weekend.

RB Marcel Reece, OAK (@ CIN) – Starter Darren McFadden is out again this weekend, and since Reece had 193 all-purpose yards last Sunday, start him with confidence this weekend.

WR Demaryius Thomas, DEN (@ KC) – Thomas has had three games with over 130 receiving yards this season, and he will have another huge game this weekend against a hated division foe.

TE Jermaine Gresham, CIN (vs. OAK) – Gresham has gone over 65 receiving yards in three of his last five games and has a great matchup this weekend against a horrid Raiders defense.

Guys to Sit:

QB Josh Freeman, TB (vs. ATL) – Freeman has been one of the hottest quarterbacks over the last couple weeks, but he faces a very tough Falcons secondary this weekend. Keep Freeman on the bench for Week 12.

RB Michael Turner, ATL (@ TB) – Tampa Bay is allowing a meager 81.8 yards per game on the ground and is currently ranked number one in the NFL in run-defense.  Expect the aging Turner to look his age this weekend.

WR Steve Smith, CAR (@ PHI) – Philadelphia’s secondary has looked very strong as of late, so expect them to be all over Smith this weekend.

TE Martellus Bennett, NYG (vs. GB) – After grabbing a touchdown in his first three games this year, Bennett has certainly cooled off.  The tight end has only gone over 40 receiving yards once in his last nine contests.
