Who Should I Start? Cairo Santos or Daniel Carlson

Sunday, December 15, 10:30 AM

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos hasn't made a field goal in two straight weeks, but is hopeful to bounce back in Week 15. Santos has made three extra point attempts and has zero field goal attempts in each of the last two games. The Bears having been playing from behind by big scores lately which has limited the opportunities for Santos. It doesn't look like it's going to get easier for the Bears as they play a tough Minnesota Vikings squad in Week 15. Santos hasn't given fantasy managers any reason to trust him heading into important fantasy playoff games this weekend.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson has mostly done a solid job making field goals, and his offense will face one of the worst defenses in the league when they take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16. His accuracy on FGs under 50 yards has been impressive, though he's faltered numerous times on the long-range shots. He's made 83.6% of his field goal tries this season, though if you remove those attempts over 50 yards, he's nailed over 95% of the others. He's 95% on extra point tries as well. This week should finally see him getting more opportunities, at least in a way we can predict, so he's a decent option at kicker in deep fantasy football leagues.
