Week 8 Start/Sit Part 1: QBs

This topic will take a look at some weekly matchups not involving top-tier players such as Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Arian Foster, Adrian Peterson, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson, Darren McFadden and Calvin Johnson. Here are the starts and sits for Week 8:

QB

Start 'Em

Tim Tebow (vs. Lions)- Tebow faces a tougher Detroit defense this week, but he should still produce enough fantasy points especially with no Willis McGahee to compete for goal line carries. 

Joe Flacco (vs. Cardinals)- Flacco was terrible against the Jaguars on Monday night, but he will be going up against one of the weakest secondaries in the league. 

Ben Roethlisberger (vs. Patriots)- Roethlisberger has been on fire the past 3 weeks and should be able to continue along against a weak New England pass defense.

Sit 'Em

Colt McCoy (at 49ers)- McCoy struggled Week 7 against Seattle and will be going against a strong San Francisco defense without Mohamed Massaquoi and Benjamin Watson.

Christian Ponder (at Panthers)- Ponder had a decent debut against Green Bay last week, but will be on the road against a Carolina team with suspect run defense so expect a big dose of Adrian Peterson.

Kevin Kolb (at Ravens)- Kolb surprisingly had a good game against Pittsburgh in Week 7, but it is still questionable whether he has turned the corner and he will be facing a still top Baltimore defense.
