Who Should I Start? Anders Carlson or Joshua Karty

Sunday, December 22, 4:54 PM

New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson made one of his two field goals and missed his lone extra-point try in a 19-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 16. Carlson struggled with his accuracy in the close loss to LA, missing on a 49-yard attempt and also misfiring after the Jets' lone touchdown of the contest. Carlson has now hit 13 of his 15 field goals while appearing in games for the Jets and the San Francisco 49ers this season. He will take on the Buffalo Bills on the road in Week 17.

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty went 4-for-4 on field goal attempts on Thursday evening during their victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Karty scored all 12 points for the Rams as the offense was unable to get into the end zone. Karty's longest kick came from 48 yards in the second quarter. Then in the fourth, Karty hit his three other field goals all from within 30 yards. After posting a 62.5% FG rate during Weeks 10 through 13, Karty has gone perfect on attempts over his past two games. However, he did miss one PAT last weekend. Despite his struggles, Karty remains a decent low-end K1 given Los Angeles' potent offense. Next weekend, he will face the New York Jets, who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing kickers this season.
