Fantasy Football: Start ‘Em Week 12

Quarterback

Philip Rivers, San Diego Chargers

No other quarterback in the league this season, with the exception of Michael Vick over the past few weeks, has been more consistent in terms of fantasy football numbers than Philip Rivers.

This week the San Diego Chargers will be going up against Indianapolis Colts and Rivers has the potential to have yet another big day against a fairly weak secondary.

Running Back

Peyton Hillis, Cleveland Browns

Even though no one expected much from this kid, Peyton Hillis has quickly become one of the best running backs in the league this season as he has been the go to guy in the Cleveland Browns offense.

A lot of people have been waiting for Hillis to fall flat on his face and back into mediocrity, but that isn’t going to happen anytime soon and this week is a must start in my opinion as the Cleveland Browns will be taking on one of the worst teams in the league in the Carolina Panthers.

Wide Receiver

Roddy White, Atlanta Falcons

A lot of people consider Andre Johnson of the Houston Texans to be the best all around wide receiver in the league, but this season the Atlanta Falcons Roddy White has made a case for himself and will continue to prove that against the Green Bay Packers this Sunday.

No matter who the Falcons face for the rest of the season, White is a must start every single week!

Tight End

Zach Miller, Oakland Raiders

The tight end position has had somewhat of a down year this season in terms of fantasy football as Antonio Gates has been the only guy around the league that has that “must start” distinction, but this week the Oakland Raiders Zach Miller should be in your lineup as he could blow up against the Miami Dolphins.

Defense

New York Jets

There is no question that the New York Jets have arguably the best defense in the league, but in Week 12 they could have a huge day against the lowly Cincinnati Bengals.
