Who Should I Start? Cameron Dicker or Riley Patterson

Friday, October 17, 6:39 PM

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker has been perfect so far this year and is coming off a last-second, game-winning field goal against the Miami Dolphins, one of five successful field goals on the day. Dicker enters Week 7 in a high-scoring game environment against the Indianapolis Colts, with the game total set at 48.5 points, indicating a likely offensive shootout. Given the Chargers' ability to move the ball and Dicker's consistent accuracy, he should get plenty of chances to score points. RotoBaller ranks Dicker as the K2 this week, and he is a must-start.

Miami Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson was signed to the active roster before Week 4's win over the Jets and will continue to fill in for as long as Jason Sanders (hip) remains sidelined. Patterson has connected on all four of his field goal attempts and all nine of his extra points this season. He hasn't attempted anything from beyond 50 yards, and the Dolphins' offense has struggled, which has limited his opportunities. He is in a favorable environment and matchup this week, though, so he's a workable bye week fill-in if you need him. He's the No. 18 K in RotoBaller's rankings, so he works as an option in deep leagues if you're desperate.
