Who to Start for Week 14 of Fantasy Football
Start Pierre Garcon, Was WR – If he’s not in your starting lineup you better make the switch now because he will have one of his better games of the year this week. I know he hasn’t played in many games this year because of his injured toe but since his return to the field, he has been the hot wide receiver to own in Washington. If you have watched any of his games, you see a strong chemistry that he has developed with his quarterback (Robert Griffin III) and how they are in unison. In the last two weeks, Garcon has had 17 targets and has caught 12 of them for 192 yards and two touchdowns. This week he’ll face off against the Baltimore Ravens who have been shredded in the passing game.
The Ravens do not have anyone that can keep up with the speed that Garcon possess and Griffin III likes to take a couple deep shots a game to him, making him worthy of a starting spot, knowing that it just takes one play to hit pay dirt.
Week 14 Projections for Pierre Garcon – six receptions for 128 yards and a touchdown.

Who to Sit for Week 14 of Fantasy Football
Sit Stevan Ridley, NE RB– Riddle me this, Riddle me that, who is going to give you a stinker this week: it’s Stevan Ridley. He has had the hot hand of late; in the last five weeks he has scored a touchdown in each game and has averaged 84 rushing yards, not bad for a running back that at the beginning of the season people thought would be an afterthought in this pass first offense. You’re probably wondering to yourself, why is Sid Says saying to sit him? Because all good things have to come to an end sometime and this is that week for Ridley. This week is going to be a challenge for Ridley as he is going up against the Houston Texans and that run stopping of a defense.
So far, the Texans are the number two ranked rush defense and have allowed a pedestrian two rushing touchdowns all year, that’s right, two rushing touchdowns. The Texans also have given up the second fewest rushing yards and have recovered the fourth most fumbles this season. Another factor working against Ridley this week is that two of his starting linemen are banged up and have been limited in practice all week which the Texans know and will take advantage of. Week 14 Projections for Stevan Ridley – 71 rushing yards, no touchdown and a fumble
