Monday Evening Edition
Sunday
Heroes (Week 10)
Another Sunday filled with big hits, big
plays, and lots of surprises makes for good day in fantasy. Whether it’s your
studs or back-ups playing big, it’s all good, but when it’s not
The-Usual-Suspects, sometimes you just need luck, hope, a prayer, or one of
these guys;
QB-CJ
Beathard;
The Niners quarterback played very well on Sunday throwing for 288 yards on 19
of 25 passing with 2 passing touchdowns and one rushing score. It was a great
game for Beathard, but not one that will change the inevitable of Jimmy
Garoppolo eventually becoming the starter.
QB-Case
Keenum;
The Vikings starter played a perfect first half on Sunday, and aside from a
couple of poor passes and ugly picks, Keenum still finished with a solid line
of 21 of 29 for 304 yards passing and 4 touchdowns. Despite the strong play,
Keenum is not guaranteed to be the starter for too much longer.
QB-Deshone
Kizer;
It wasn’t a prolific performance from the rookie passer, but it was nice game
on Sunday as Kizer had his best game of the season (fantasy scoring-wise).
Kizer passed for 232 yards and added a passing and rushing score. He also
posted a season high 57 rushing yards. It was a great sign of growth, but it’s
still too soon to consider him a fantasy option in redraft leagues.
RB-Austin
Ekeler;
The Chargers running back got extra run on Sunday and took advantage. Ekeler
rushed for 42 yards and added 5 receptions for 77 yards and two touchdowns. It
was a nice game for the rookie, but not one fantasy owners can count on too
often with Ekeler playing behind Melvin Gordon.
WR-Chester
Rogers;
The Colts 2nd year receiver had a breakout Sunday with 6 catches for 104 yards
receiving and a touchdown. It was his first big game of the season and far too
soon to bank on him going forward; he’s a wait and see option for now.
WR-Brandon
LaFell;
The Bengals wide receiver turned in his best game of the year catching 6 passes
for 95 yards and a touchdown. In Cincy AJ Green is the clear-cut number one, so
owners may have to wait a while for a repeat play from LaFell.
TE-Garrett
Celek;
Normally the Niners number 2 tight end, Garrett Celek got more run on Sunday
with George Kittle inactive and he took advantage. Celek caught 4 passes for 67
yards and a score on six targets. With Kittle likely to return soon, Celek’s
luster could fade.
That's My Take.
