Fantasy football 2018, Week 12 rankings: Who to start and sit
By Jon Dove
Start: Nick Chubb, Cleveland Browns
@ Cincinnati Bengals
Since being handed the starting job, Nick Chubb has average over 100 yards per game in the last four contests. He’s getting the job done with a combination of vision, power and quickness. Chubb might not be the fastest player on the field bu the knows when to accelerate.
The Cleveland Browns have shown a commitment to getting Chubb the ball despite the game flow. His someone they realize needs to touch the ball in order for their offense to be successful.
This week is a very favorable matchup for Chubb and the entire Browns offense. The Cincinnati Bengals defense has been among the worst in the entire NFL. Look for the Browns to get Chubb the ball early and often.
Sit: Phillip Lindsay, Denver Broncos
vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
The Denver Broncos continue to give fantasy football owners nightmares with their running back rotation. Phillip Lindsay is the team’s top rusher and the guy who gets the most touches. However, Royce Freeman is still getting some work.
This past weekend Freeman got a goal line carry that could’ve very easily went to Lindsay. Luckily, Lindsay already had two touchdowns to his name.
The Broncos face a tough Pittsburgh Steelers defense this weekend which hurts Lindsay’s potential.
