Week 11 of the NFL season is upon us, as we evaluate potential start or sit candidates in your fantasy football team’s quest to win.
As the weather begins to cool down, expectations across both the NFL and the fantasy football landscapes follow suit. Whether you’re a real GM of an actual team or running a virtual fantasy squad, you typically have a good feel if your constructed line-up sits pretty in the playoff picture, or if you are already looking forward to 2019.
However, many of us fantasy players (including yours truly) sits in the dreaded fantasy football middle ground, having to fight to the last week in order to gain clarity on your final destination of 2018. As the fantasy football regular season winds to an end, most leagues typically have their trade deadline approaching.
Week 10 brought us many surprises, and per status quo, it was a mixed bag of results. Nick Chubb held his breakout party at home against the Atlanta Falcons, Cooper Kupp suffered a torn ACL, and Le’Veon Bell officially holds the crown of “Hide and Seek Champion 2018” after not reporting to the team this week.

As we move forward to Week 11, six teams will be on bye weeks: Buffalo, Cleveland, Miami, New England, New York (Jets), and San Francisco will have the opportunity to rest up as other teams prepare for battle. Fun Fact: The last time an entire division shared the same bye week was back in 1998.
Yet we can’t focus on the past, for that only distracts time and attention away from the future. While that’s some solid life advice, you’re here for fantasy football guidance, where the same rules apply. Battling for a playoff spot and need help at your running back slate? One solid quarterback performance away from saving yourself last place humiliation?
With little time left to save your campaign, set your worries next to facing your in-laws across from the dinner table this holiday season and let us do the heavy carving for you.
