BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues in Week 8
Owned in 76% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has played excellent football of late, racking up ten TDs in the last four weeks while only throwing three INTs. Excluding a lackluster performance at Lucas Oil Stadium in week five, Flacco has bolstered his fantasy value by a ton with his touchdowns and yardage, throwing less than 225 yards only twice this year.
The Cincinnati team that Flacco faces this week has been able to keep the passing touchdown total low against other opposing quarterbacks this year, only giving up 1.33 passing TDs per game (ranked 6th). On the other hand, the Bengal’s secondary has given up 280.17 yards per game passing (ranked 29th) and also has handed opposing quarterbacks the sixth most fantasy points per game on the season according to FleaFlicker. If you’re lucky enough to find Flacco on the waiver wire in your league, grab him. If you’ve got Flacco on your team this week, give him a start. He should produce once again this week.
