Every Thursday, we discuss NFL trends and tendencies here as they apply to fantasy football. And we'll do that again today, but I want to keep this more matchup-focused as we head into the Week 11 slate of games.
Now, I'm not going to tell you to play Lamar Jackson or Saquon Barkley. We know they're in. This isn't a start/sit column, either. That's not really what I do. However, we can look at some players who have both positive and negative matchups this week. And we'll use the tendencies I see on the game tape, along with the metrics, because at 6-4 in my home league, I need a win, too.
Here are three matchups to play in Week 11, and three more to question, as you begin to set your lineups.
Matchups to play in Week 11
Josh Jacobs, RB, Green Bay Packers (at Chicago Bears)
Do the Bears find some juice on offense this week with new coordinator Thomas Brown? Maybe. And that could impact game flow on Sunday at Soldier Field. But I'm looking at this from the perspective of Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and how he will scheme that Chicago defense.
