Russell Wilson, Sea, QB (88 percent started, $37 in Yahoo DFS)
Matchup: at Cin
Cardboard cut-outs of One Direction. Magnetic football figurines. Friendly apparitions. No matter what the Seattle offensive line is constructed from, it's highly permeable, to say the least. The Wilson pressure cooker is stuck on 11. Under duress a league-high 43.9 percent of the time, he's had to fend off relentless zombie herds in an attempt to move the chains and, most importantly, remain upright. If not for his shiftiness and quick-thinking, Wilson would be laid out on a hospital bed. Through four games, he's on pace for a David Carr-like 72 sacks. Evidenced in his 44.3 rushing yards per game owners have benefited from the constant badgering, but it seems the QB, and the organization as a whole, are playing with fire. Bank on Wilson to again sit firmly on a bunsen burner this week, especially if hamstrung Marshawn Lynch is unavailable or limited. The Bengals boast a formidable defense. They swarmed under Alex Smith five times last Sunday and have surrendered only one 18-plus point fantasy QB in four games, Joe Flacco in Week 3. Corners Leon Hall and Pacman Jones, who each rank top-20 in pass coverage per Pro Football Focus, have given up just 8.3 yards per catch this year. Toss in Seattle's struggles on the road and confidence for Wilson to finish top-12 this week isn't high. Jay Cutler (at KC), Marcus Mariota (vs. Buf) and Philip Rivers (vs. Pit) are more attractive alternatives.
Fearless Forecast: 19-31, 215 passing yards, 1 passing touchdown, 1 interception, 38 rushing yards, 15.4 fantasy points
In the bold print, if this is the case, then Kirkpatrick must be terrible or our safeties are. We gave up 380 passing yards last week. We have been giving up passing yards to Flacco the week before. If our secondary is getting lit up like this, and Jones and Hall rank top 20 among CB's, then Kirkpatrick and our safeties have to be terrible, right?
At any rate, let's hope the streak continues and Wilson has a day that is projected above. 215 yards with only 38 yards rushing means their offense struggled as long as our run defense keeps playing like it has. It will be tough to score on Seattle with Kam back anyways, so we have to hope their offensive woes continue.
