Fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em: Week 12

It’s hard to believe it’s already Week 12 of the NFL regular season, and we’re rounding the corner — headed for Thanksgiving soon and nearing the end of the fantasy football regular season.

We have six teams off this week, too, so Week 12 will be a challenging time for some fantasy managers. The Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans Saints and New York Jets are off, which means some significant holes on fantasy rosters. Managers have to scramble for fantasy replacements, especially if you have a players from a combination of those teams.

We saw in Cleveland in the Thursday night game that weather can also start playing a factor this time of year, too, so make sure to be cognizant of that situation, as well. Nothing is worse sitting down with your popcorn and soft drink to watch your fantasy player(s) in a particular game, only to see a maelstrom out on the field, and a slow go on offense or in the kicking game.
