QB
Start 'Em
Matthew Stafford (vs. Packers)- Stafford rebounded last game with 5 touchdowns (with Kevin Smith providing a much needed running game for Detroit) and should be able to build on it against Green Bay. This game should be a shootout between 2 offensive juggernauts providing a feast of fantasy points and Stafford will be right in the middle of it.
Matt Ryan (vs. Vikings)- this is the second straight week that a quarterback facing Minnesota's defense is in this list. Ryan has been hot in his last 3 games and even if Julio Jones is out again this week, he should continue against a Vikings defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to quarterbacks.
Tim Tebow (at Chargers)- Tebow is in this list for the sixth straight week. Last week in his toughest matchup of the season, he was still able to produce a good amount fantasy points (most of them in his 95 yards game winning drive). This week he face an easier matchup against San Diego and the same line of reasoning still applies from previous weeks, which is that Tebow should be able to produce fantasy points (and that's all that matters in here) if he can avoid injuries or being benched.
Sit 'Em
Ryan Fitzpatrick (at Jets)- Fitzpatrick started the season on fire, but has cooled off considerably in recent weeks. It will not be easy for him to restart that fire against Darrelle Revis and the Jets. He will not only have to deal with Revis Island (probably covering Stevie Johnson), but will also not be able to count with top running back Fred Jackson's services for this game and the rest of the season. With disappointing C.J. Spiller as the starting running back and going against the Jets defense, Fitzpatrick has a tough road ahead to recover the early season magic.
Joe Flacco (vs. 49ers)- this is the second straight week that a quarterback facing San Francisco is in this list. Flacco has been a model of inconsistency and will face a tough 49ers defense on Thursday. There is no reason to expect much out of Flacco in this matchup in a game that will probably turn out to be a defensive struggle.
Alex Smith (at Ravens)- this is the second straight week that a quarterback going against Baltimore is in this list. Smith has been a pleasant surprise this season a game manager that produced some fantasy points. On Thursday he will be going up against a Ravens defense that has allowed a league low 7 touchdown passes so expectations of Smith should be kept to a minimum for Week 12.
Ryan Fitzpatrick (at Jets)- Fitzpatrick started the season on fire, but has cooled off considerably in recent weeks. It will not be easy for him to restart that fire against Darrelle Revis and the Jets.
