Kansas City Chiefs 9-3 at Washington Redskins 3-9
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Alfred Morris
#14 Ranked WR
In general, the Washington Redskins are not the role model of consistency. Morris has been all over the board this year. Last week he had 26 yards rushing and a TD and another 27 yards receiving. 11.3 fantasy points in standard leagues was his best performance in the last three weeks. He is a top 10 RB so you should play him. Kansas City gives up the 15th most fantasy points to RBs and that is why we think that, if Washington scores, it will be Morris.
Gut Calls
Robert Griffin lll
#4 Ranked QB
The “garbage time man” has returned. RG3 passed for 207 yards, one TD and ran for 88 yards. We could feel the pressure on his shoulders. Although he performed better last week against the Giants the Redskins still lost. Kansas City gives up the 16th most fantasy points to QBs but that includes two games with Peyton Manning. RG3 has the potential to get you lots of points at the end of the game but this is a hard defense coming off some hard games. He is a risky pick every week, which you already know because you own him. Good luck and may the garbage man be with you.
Pierre Garcon
#14 Ranked WR
Garcon struggled last week against a beatable Giants secondary and worried his owners. Averaging 5.5 fantasy points over his last three games, Garcon now faces the Kansas City Defense. Eric Decker burned them last week by scoring 41 fantasy points, but don’t expect those types of numbers from Garcon this week. With Jordan Reed’s questionable return, the defense will focus on Garcon and force RG3 to use other options.
Bench Warmers
Jordan Reed
#15 Ranked TE
Reed was out again last week against the Giants with a concussion. He hasn’t played a full game since Week 10. This might not be the best week for him to return to your lineup either. Kansas City gives up the fewest fantasy points to TEs.
