Fantasy Football Week 13: 10 matchups to attack
By Joe Romano
The fantasy football playoff push is here! Week 12 of the NFL season has come and gone, a weird one for fantasy football player.
An odd week for all fantasy football players was Week 12 of the NFL season. The three Thanksgiving games and usually long weekend, throws off the normal routine. If you were in a situation like me, you wrapped up your game on Thursday with a big game from someone like Keenan Allen or Case Keenum.
The results played out with little unexpected outcome. Most favorites won, and won big. The top teams in each conference impressed. New England beat up on the Dolphins. Philadelphia laid the smack down on Chicago. Those two are sitting comfortably atop their respective conference.
There were some monster fantasy performances as well. Aforementioned Keenan Allen continued his impressive 2017 season. Alvin Kamara is beginning to run away with rookie of the year after another top five finish. At quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and Philip Rivers dialed back the clock to put up big numbers and Case Keenum added a rushing score to keep pace.
