Start:

Ben Roethlisberger, PIT, vs. CLE

Ben Roethlisberger has officially found the form that he had prior to an injury last season, making him a fantasy QB for the rest of the season. A matchup between the 4-0 Steelers and surprising 4-1 Cleveland Browns will be a time for Roethlisberger to ball out and could be a back and forth game depending on the play of the Browns. Add in the emergence of Chase Claypool and it’s had to go wrong with the 2-time Super Bowl champion this week.

Kirk Cousins, MIN, vs. ATL

So close Kirk Cousins came to pulling off the upset over Russell Wilson. Unfortunately, that was not the case. But a matchup with the 0-5 Atlanta Falcons should set him up for a phenomenal output and very well worth the stream in all fantasy formats. One of the best start and sit options of the week.

Sit:

Carson Wentz, PHI, vs. BAL

If you have stuck this long with Carson Wentz, bravo, as he has had some huge games despite tough matchups and none of his starting receivers being healthy. That said, you need to find a better option than him this week. A matchup with the Baltimore Ravens could be a problem, especially if his backup receivers are his No. 1 options this week.

Baker Mayfield, CLE, @ PIT

Baker Mayfield has been a really good real-life quarterback this season. He’s made plenty of awesome throws, helped his team get to 4-1, all good things. But when it comes to fantasy football, he is not a real option right now. And against the swarming Pittsburgh defense, it seems like a bad idea to roll with him out there.
