Tennessee Titans at Baltimore Ravens Week 10 – Baltimore Ravens Fantasy Forecast Tennessee gives up 11th fewest fantasy points to QBs 8th most to RBs 13th fewest to WRs 11th most to TEs Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Owen Daniels – 6th Ranked TE I know that when we saw that TD go to Gillmore, we all wanted to throw our drinks thru the TV but Daniels still got 53 yards and 6 receptions. That isn’t too shabby in PPR leagues. Still like him for this week. Start him. Steve Smith Sr. – 19th Ranked WR Do you remember when he would get double digits all the time? Ya, that was 4 weeks ago. Now I just want him to stop using his walker on the field and speed up. Until he isn’t getting targeted anymore I say play him. Justin Forsett – 13th Ranked RB Forsett is a 10-point RB. This week should be a little better against the Titans. Hopefully they won’t fall behind early and abandon the run. I don’t see that happening at home. Go ahead and start him and prepare yourself for Lorenzo to steal a few points from him. Justin Tucker – 2nd Ranked K and Baltimores Defense – 7th Ranked DEF Gut Calls Torrey Smith – 29th Ranked WR Next week Smith Jr. and Smith Sr. might be switching spots. Last week was Torrey’s 4th week in double-digits in the last 6 weeks. He is a little of a boom or bust player but more of a Boom then a bust. He did zero out last week and that...

Every week we go match up by match up and tell you who your must starts, gut calls and bench players are for the game. We can’t cover every player but we should be able to answer those burning questions as to whether or not this is a good week for one of your questionable players. We were in the midst of traveling to New York so there is no Thursday night game analysis this week but listen to the rest of the match ups for your line-up decisions. Let the fun begin....

Baltimore Ravens 5-3 at Pittsburgh Steelers 5-3 Week 9 – Baltimore Ravens Fantasy Forecast Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Justin Forsett – 16th Ranked RB He is listed as probable on Sunday. Forsett has yet to be a big number back but he is consistent and as a Running Back/Flex that is all we can ask for. He should continue to be steady this week against a burnable Pittsburgh Steelers. Steve Smith Sr. – 7th Ranked WR Smith has only had 1 good game in the last four but it’s triple S. Don’t give up on him yet. I think he still has gas in the tank. These kinds of games are what Smith Sr. is all about. Expect him to come out ready to get dirty against the Steelers. Gut Calls Joe Flacco – 19th Ranked QB This is a huge rivalry and I expect both teams to come and play. Flacco sucked last week no questions about that but he should do much better this week. Lets just try to get more touchdowns then interceptions this week Flacco. He is not my favorite start this week for Quarterbacks but only you know how desperate you are. Torrey Smith – 34th Ranked WR Zeroed out last week. Boo!!! Torrey is just a boom or bust player. Torrey will need to be a lot better then his Week 2 showing were he only scored 1 point, if the Ravens expect to win this game. Baltimore Defense – 14th DEF The Baltimore’s Defense has been up and down, like the rest of the team in 2014....

Pittsburgh Steelers (5-3) vs Baltimore Ravens (5-3) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Le’Veon Bell– #4 Ranked RB Will this week be Le’Veon Bell’s best week…probably not. The Ravens give up the fewest points to running backs so it will be a tough battle on the line. The good news is that Bell has great hands and is incorporated into receiving plays often so he should still be able to get you points. Bell is a top 5 back so you never bench him. Antonio Brown– #1 Ranked WR We say it every week but we will say it again. Antonio Brown is a must start. He is the top receiver in the league by 18 points over Demaryius Thomas. He scored 25 points last week off 133 yards and 2 touchdowns, thank you very much! He will be looked to a lot since the Ravens secondary is the weakest part of their defense. Gut Calls Martavis Bryant– #45 Ranked WR Bryant has had 2 solid back to back weeks. Two weeks ago he scored 10 points and had a touchdown and last week he scored 20 points, and had 2 touchdowns. He also doubled his yardage week over week. He is establishing himself as a solid WR2 option in Pittsburgh and might have some fantasy value for you as well in a Flex or WR3 role. Ben Roethlisberger– #9 Ranked QB Let’s be clear, last week was a freak week and probably will be the highest fantasy scoring game all year long but Ben Roethlisberger has been creeping his way up the standings all season...

We partnered with RotoBaller to give you accurate and timely Week 9 waiver wire adds, running backs and more. In turn, they post our podcast to their site (which is centered around setting your weekly lineups). Enjoy! This article originally appeared on RotoBaller, our new partner. In Week 8, some newly emerging running backs cemented themselves as the lead backs on their team. Others have seen their opportunities increase due to underperformance or injuries. That’s good news for those of you who are in desperate need of a waiver wire running back for Week 9 and beyond, which I imagine is a lot of you. Let’s get rolling on which running backs and potential sleepers that you should be willing to spend some FAAB bucks on in Week 9′s waiver wire. Fantasy Football Running Backs (RB) – Week 9 Denard Robinson (RB, JAX) – 40% owned on Fleaflicker Well, if you didn’t believe last week, it’s time to believe this week. Robinson rushed for 106 yards on 18 carries and added a reception for 12 yards. In the first half, he was nearly unstoppable, ripping off big gain after big gain against what is supposed to be a strong Miami front (they have struggled somewhat recently). Despite statements to the contrary from Jaguars staff, Robinson was very clearly ahead of a “healthy” Toby Gerhart, as he should be, and he should see a majority of snaps week in and week out after two solid performances. Against a Bengals team that’s been well below average against the run this year, look for Robinson to continue his hot stretch. I’d start him as...
