Who Should I Start? Chris Boswell or Cameron Dicker

Saturday, November 29, 12:52 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was quiet in last week's loss to the Chicago Bears, but he should bounce back in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Although the Bills haven't given up a ton of fantasy production to kickers, their defense has been subpar overall, allowing nearly 23 points per game. With this contest taking place in Pittsburgh, Boswell's outlook only improves. The 34-year-old has scored at least nine fantasy points in all five of his matchups at Acrisure Stadium this season and is averaging more than five additional fantasy points per game at home than on the road. The inconsistent play of the Steelers' offense caps his reliability a bit, but not enough to remove him from starting consideration. Boswell profiles as a top-10 option on Sunday.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker went 2-for-2 on field goals in Week 11 despite the team's struggles on offense. The Chargers possessed the ball for only 22 minutes and reached the red zone once against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Dicker now faces a matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders, whose middle-of-the-road defense has surprisingly allowed the tenth-fewest first downs this season. This creates a favorable situation for Dicker, as the Raiders' stout defense might lead to more field goal attempts than touchdowns. RotoBaller projects Dicker as K5 for the week. Fantasy managers should trust this ranking and consider Dicker a strong high-end K1, expecting more field-goal opportunities in this game.
