With the weekend fast approaching and Fantasy Football obviously on the mind, we present to you our five must starts for NFL Week 11.

By Ryan Reynolds

This time during the week marks the point when owners start developing conflicts on whether who should start or who should ride the pine for their upcoming fantasy game, and with the playoffs rapidly approaching, making the right decisions have never been more crucial.

“Should I start Matt Ryan or Aaron Rodgers? I know Rodgers is struggling and he’s playing a tough Minnesota Vikings defense, but Ryan could produce well against the Indianapolis Colts secondary. I’m scared to start Ryan though because Rodgers can have a fantasy explosion at any moment. What do I do?”

This is exactly how the dilemma goes when fantasy owners are forced to make a tough decision.

Believe it or not, going through a start’em/sit’em situation can be both mentally and physically draining.

Week 11 especially could lay stress on owners because this week contains a substantial amount of bye weeks for plenty of productive fantasy players, forcing some owners into making uncomfortable roster moves and sliding players they aren’t familiar with into their starting lineups.

(Teams who have the week off: New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants)

Here are my five must-starts for Week 11 at each position.
