Fantasy Football, Week 14: Best lineup with start/sit advice
By Dylan Broady
Ezekiel Elliott, Dallas Cowboys
Stats: 1,150 rushing yards, 6 touchdowns, 423 receiving yards, 3 touchdowns
What else can we say to convince you to start Elliott? He is currently second in rushing yards, first in carries and seventh in receptions. This man has balled out big time. The Cowboys arrow is pointing up and even though the Philadelphia Eagles are 10th-ranked against the rush Elliott won’t be stopped.
He is averaging 20 carries, 95 rushing yards, five receptions and 35 receiving yards per game. He has nine total touchdowns this season. Since acquiring Amari Cooper, Elliott has posted 470 rushing yards, 197 receiving yards and five total touchdowns.
This offense needs a primary receiver to operate at all cylinders. The last time Zeke played Philadelphia he had 187 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns. Can the Eagles defense slow him down? We are in Zeke’s corner once again and we think he will have another big game. Even in a low-scoring affair against the New Orleans Saints, Elliott had 76 rushing yards, 60 receiving yards and a touchdown.
He is an every-week player who won’t be sat during the fantasy playoffs. We need to take advantage of this and play him as much as possible. He is an obvious start each and every week.
