Seattle Seahawks – Fantasy Forecast – Week 13
Seattle Seahawks vs New Orleans Saints
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Marshawn Lynch
#5 Ranked RB
The Saints defense is the middle of the pack when it comes to stopping RBs. Lynch scored over 20 fantasy points in the two weeks before the bye, so a well rested Lynch + a so-so DEF = 20+ points. Start him.
Gut Calls
Percy Harvin
#31 Ranked WR
There is a lot of hype around Percy Harvin coming back and Coach Carroll said there will be no more restrictions on Harvin the rest of the season. That doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t restrict him on your roster until you see actual production from him.
Bench Warmers
Seahawks DEF
#8 Ranked DEF
No, your eyes are not deceiving you. Yes, the Seahawks Defense is on the bench. When you play against the Saints, you need to expect Jimmy Graham to live in the end zone and Brees to pick a random WR to throw to all game long. The Saints are an offensive powerhouse which means low points for the Seahawks Defense.
Russell Wilson
#12 Ranked QB
Wilson will go up against a defense that gives up the 3rd fewest points to opposing QBs. Wilson, we hate to tell you, is not an elite QB in the NFL and will not be the one to blow up on the Saints. All season long Wilson should have been your back up for bye weeks so this isn’t the week to put him in. Keep him on your bench.
