Start or Sit These Players on Monday Night to Win Week 6 Fantasy



I will be with you every step of the way with recommendations on who to start and who to sit for every Monday Night Football matchup. With out further ado, let’s make the moves required to wrap up your Week 6 victory.



Quarterback



Start or Sit These Players on Monday Night to Win Week 6 Fantasy



Josh Allen – Buffalo Bills



There are some players that you will employ on your fantasy rosters week in and week out regardless of matchup or scenario. One of those players is Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen. Allen took a major step forward last season and became an every week starter. After a slow start to the season in which he averaged 17.43 points in the first two weeks, Allen has bounced back to elite QB status the past three weeks.



Josh Allen was the QB18 through 2 weeks, and QB2 in Weeks 3-5. Life is hard enough full of difficult daily decisions. Starting Josh Allen shouldn’t be one of them. Start Allen with absolute confidence weekly. The fact that the Titans are 4th worst in the league against opposing QBs just makes this opportunity even juicer.



Ryan Tannehill – Tennessee Titans



Ryan Tannehill emerged as a week-in week-out starting QB after he won the job in Tennessee. From Week 7 through the end of the year in 2019, Tannehill was QB3 averaging 22.50 points a game. In 2020, Tannehill finished the season as QB7 averaging 21.90 points per game. This season after five weeks, he sits at QB20, averaging 17.21 points a game.



Facing the Bills this week, you likely have to start him if you roster him, but I would advise against it if you have a viable option to do so. I have Tannehill ranked 14th this week. Starting him won’t kill you, but he won’t win you this week either. I would prefer to start Taylor Heinicke, Joe Burrow, and Sam Darnold this week.



Running Back

Zack Moss / Devin Singletary – Buffalo Bills



After being a somewhat surprising healthy scratch in Week 1, Bills RB Zack Moss has been a consistent PPR producing back averaging 14.45 points a game. His high on the season is 18.10 and his low is 12.10. If you start Zack Moss you can bank on double digit fantasy points. The Titans are yielding 22.5 points a game to opposing backs, so I am starting Moss here without question.



Devin Singletary finished Week 1 as RB29 with 11 PPR points. Since then his average has dropped to 8.4 points a game and down to 5.5 over the past three outings. Devin Singletary is being phased out of the Bills’ lineup and should be phased out of you lineup as well. Sit Devin this week.



Derrick Henry / Jeremy – Tennessee Titans



Josh Allen, as I mentioned earlier, is one of those set it and forget it fantasy assets. Derrick Henry might very well be the poster child. Henry is a monster, a back that is in your lineup weekly regardless of who, what, or where he is playing. Last season, Derrick Henry became the 8th running back in NFL history to rush for over 2,000 yards in a single season. Henry finished with 2,027 yards on 397 touches and scored 17 times.



In 2021, he is on pace for 530 touches, which is pure insanity. The best part of rostering Derrick Henry is his work in the passing game. Henry is 5 catches away from tying his career high of 19 receptions and its only Week 6. You don’t need me to tell you that Derrick Henry is a slam dunk start each and every week.
