Here are three players worth starting/sitting this week:
Start:
Doug Martin (RB, Buccaneers): Martin can be put back in your lineup now that he is healthy, and Tampa Bay started showing some signs of life.
Marques Colston (WR, Saints): Colston has the perfect skillset to take advantage of the Bucs’ zone defense.
Ben Roethlisberger (QB, Steelers): New rule: If you are a half-decent QB and you face the Jaguars, you should be started in fantasy football.
Sit:
Montee Ball (RB, Broncos): Ball’s schedule will get easier eventually, but he should be avoided against the Cardinals this week.
Pierre Garcon (WR, Redskins): Given his brutal matchup against the Seahawks, Garcon can be benched if you have other decent options.
Alex Smith (QB, Chiefs): He was great last week, but he should be on your bench given the tougher matchup against his former team, the 49ers.
