Who Should I Start? Brett Maher or Greg Joseph

Saturday, October 21, 4:13 AM

Los Angeles Rams kicker Brett Maher is currently the second overall kicker through the first six weeks of the season. The 33-year-old has hit 16-of-20 field goal attempts and is perfect on extra-point tries. The Rams have been very aggressive offensively, creating constant opportunities for Maher to knock down field goals. He has proven to be a top-three option at the position weekly and should not be on any waiver wires anymore. Fire Maher up with the utmost confidence in the team's Week 7 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Minnesota Vikings kicker Greg Joseph will look to keep his perfect start to the season going in Week 5, as he has connected on both of his field goal attempts and all 12 extra-point attempts through four games. Although reliable when called upon, Joseph hasn't got much of an opportunity to put points on the board this year, and a matchup with the Chiefs could suggest more of the same. In what could be a game script where the Vikings battle from behind, there is the possibility that Joseph will continue to get limited opportunities to kick field goals. Fantasy managers should treat him as nothing more than a risky streaming option.
