Who Should I Start? Daniel Carlson or Tyler Loop

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson hasn't been able to offer fantasy managers much value over the last few weeks. Over the last three games, Carlson is 1-for-2 on field goal attempts, while making 3-of-4 extra point attempts. The 30-year-old hasn't been great this season, but he also doesn't get a ton of chances. The promising news is that Carlson is heading into a favorable matchup in Week 11. The Raiders will face off against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night. The Cowboys have struggled to contain anyone this season, so the Raiders should be able to get into scoring position. Carlson isn't an ideal fantasy option, but he should offer better value than he has the past few weeks.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop finished as the K2 in Week 10 despite missing one of his five field goal attempts against the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie made four of them from 44, 28, 30, and 22 yards away while knocking through his only extra point attempt. He's now 16-for-18 overall on the season and 23-for-24 on extra points. The Ravens take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 11 after they went for 41 points against them in Week 2. In that game, Loop finished as the K8, and could very well finish even higher now that the team has even more trust in him. Fantasy managers can comfortably start Loop this week as he projects to be a K1 yet again.
