Fantasy football 2018, Week 12 rankings: Who to start and sit
By Jon Dove
Start: Mitch Trubisky, Chicago Bears
@ Detroit Lions
The Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy has developed a tremendous game plan that features the strength of Mitch Trubisky’s game. This attack features a lot of moving parts that are aimed at creating easy decisions for the young quarterback.
Nagy has also given Trubisky the green light to run when he feels it necessary. It’s this use of his legs that has really helped Trubisky excel as a quarterback and fantasy option.
This week the Bears take on a Detroit Lions team that has struggled on the defensive side of the ball. Despite the short week, look for Nagy to develop a strong plan in order to attack this Lions defense.
Sit: Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers
vs. Seattle Seahawks
Cam Newton is a little banged up and coming off a disappointing loss. His inability to convert a two-point conversion cost the Carolina Panthers a chance at a win. Newton is having a strong season overall, but faces a tough task against the Seattle Seahawks.
Seattle’s defense took a little bit to adjust to some new parts, but are now playing at a high level. Their pass rush should make things difficult for Newton this weekend.
