Fantasy football 2018, Week 13 rankings: Who to start and sit
By Jon Dove
Start: Phillip Lindsay, Denver Broncos
@ Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals have the second worst rushing defense in the NFL allowing just under 150 yards per game. This unit just allowed Nick Chubb of the Cleveland Browns to rush for 84 yards and a touchdown.
Phillip Lindsay continues to pace the running back rotation for the Denver Broncos. He’s quickly approaching the 1,000 yard mark while averaging nearly six yards per carry.
Lindsay is an explosive runner who is always a threat to break of a long run. He brings added value in PPR formats thanks to his pass catching skills. Denver kept their playoff hopes alive this past weekend and will be counting on Lindsay to keep the momentum going.
Sit: Sony Michel, New England Patriots
vs. Minnesota Vikings
Sony Michel is back to full health and is coming off a stellar performance. He was able to run up and down the field on the New York Jets. However, this week he and the New England Patriots face a different animal.
The Minnesota Vikings defense is very stout against the run. They feature run stuffing defensive linemen like Linval Joseph. This looks more like a game where James White is featured in the passing attack.
