QB – Justin Herbert
There’s no denying that Herbert has had a lackluster season thus far, especially for a Chargers team that was expected to compete for the AFC West. That said, this week gives a favorable matchup against a struggling Broncos squad. There is huge boom potential for Herbert in week 12.
RB – Christian McCaffrey and AJ Dillon
McCaffrey gets Miami, giving up an average of 18 points per game to opposing fantasy RBs. Dillon gets the Rams, giving up an average of 17 points per game to opposing fantasy RBs. Two favorable matchups.
WR – Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers, Diontae Johnson
Adams will also get the Rams, whose secondary outside of Jalen Ramsey has been suspect this season. Meyers and Johnson are plays where you are looking for an easy matchup with a cheap price tag to get some average production to allow flexibility in the rest of the lineup.
TE – Geoff Swaim
Let’s face it, the Titans are doing things this season with players nobody has ever heard of, so why not give Swaim a shot and hope he gets in the end zone?
FLEX – Jared Cook
Stacking the Chargers offense is never a bad idea, although Cook is a TD-dependent play, he can become a huge red zone factor in a must-win matchup for the Chargers.
DEFENSE – Texans
Are we still getting Joe Flacco at QB for the Jets? What a joke franchise. Their offense is anemic and this will show on Sunday against the Texans, who are coming off a huge win against the AFC-leading Titans.
Good luck to everybody on Sunday and let’s win some cash!
