Fantasy Football Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em: Week 10 Players to Upgrade & Tough Matchups

Fantasy football start ’em sit ’em strategy is a pivotal part of the game. It revolves around the weekly challenge of deciding which players from your fantasy team should be in action and who should take a backseat. These decisions are influenced by a range of factors, including match-ups, player injuries, and recent performance.

“Start ’em” signifies players who deserve a spot in your starting lineup because they either have favorable match-ups or have been in great form recently. Conversely, “sit ’em” refers to players who should be benched because they are facing tough opponents or have shown inconsistent performance.

*More from Fantasy Football Week 10: Sneaky Starts & Sleepers*

To make informed choices, it’s crucial to delve into statistics, consider expert opinions, and gain insights into player conditions. However, fantasy football always has an element of unpredictability. Even the most promising players can have off-days, while underappreciated ones can unexpectedly shine.

Therefore, maintaining flexibility and being open to adjusting your start ’em sit ’em decisions during the season is essential. Continuously keeping tabs on player news and updates and evaluating your team’s overall performance can help you optimize your fantasy football experience. Ultimately, your fantasy team’s success hinges on your ability to determine which players to start and sit each week accurately.

Maybe all the properties and businesses that surround the Cubs - but aren't technically Cubs revenue - aren't cash cows.

His line with Erik Haula and Joel Armia didn't get on...
