Start or Sit Tom Brady, Baker Mayfield, or Carson Wentz in Week 13

Start or Sit Tom Brady in Week 13?

Fact: Tom Brady hasn’t had a top-12 finish since week 6. Fact: Tom Brady’s wide receivers are still banged up.

On the other hand, Brady faces Houston’s porous defense, and the domed stadium means the weather won’t come into play.

However, consider this fact: Tom Brady hasn’t had a top-12 finish since week 6. And this fact: Repeating facts makes people believe you without actually making new arguments. I’m gonna need to see at least one week of a turnaround before I start considering him, again. Sit Tom Brady in Week 13.

Yahoo! has Brady ranked a whopping 7th among quarterbacks, so they want you to Start Tom Brady.

Start or Sit Baker Mayfield in Week 13?

Baker Mayfield is coming off a tremendous day where he threw for 30 fantasy points against Miami! What could stop him from repeating this week? The answer is the Pittsburgh Steelers, who allow the tenth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks. This is an AFC North matchup that could very well end up a slog, so I say sit Baker Mayfield in week 13.

Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football predicts Mayfield to finish 23rd among QBs, well out of starting range in one quarterback leagues. They want you to sit Baker Mayfield in week 13.

Start or Sit Carson Wentz in Week 13?

Another QB who hasn’t had a top 12 finish since week 6, but has a dynamite matchup (vs Miami) this week. Again, I’m going to need to see him play well before I gamble: He also has a bruised hand. Sit Carson Wentz in week 13.

NOTE: I realize I said to sit everyone. For further enlightenment, here is a list of QBs I think will have a stronger day than any of these 3 players: Mahomes, Rodgers, Jackson, Wilson, Brees, Winston, Foles, Cousins, Darnold, Tannehill, Ryan, Allen.

Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football says Wentz will finish 6th among QBs so they want to start Wentz in week 13.
