BALLER MOVE: Stream in 14- and 16-Team Leagues

ANALYSIS: Joe Flacco has done his part to take advantage of a weak schedule— over the last three weeks, he’s averaged 17.45 fantasy points. Baltimore’s nice schedule continues in Week 12 when they stay at home to take on the division rival Bengals.
Cincinnati’s defense isn’t one you would normally think to stream against, but they are simply bleeding fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. The 19.75 fantasy points they’re allowing to quarterbacks each week is the fifth-highest in the NFL, a far cry from the Bengals defense we’ve seen the last few years. They managed to keep Tyrod Taylor in check in Week 11, but in three of their last four games prior to that, they allowed either 400 yards passing or three touchdown passes. This defense isn’t getting the job done this year, and Flacco should be the next QB to benefit from its ineptitude.
