Who Should I Start? Graham Gano or Jason Sanders

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano will look to bounce back in Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after a mixed performance in Week 10 against Carolina, where he went 1-for-2 on field goals, including a clutch 42-yard game-tying kick in regulation. Gano, who has played just three games this season due to injury, has made three of four field goal attempts, including a long of 50 yards, for a 75% conversion rate. The Buccaneers' defense, ranked 30th against the pass, could allow the Giants' offense to generate scoring opportunities, giving Gano a chance to capitalize. With the Giants' offense still finding its footing (with Tommy Devito at the helm), Gano is a risky fantasy option.

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has been one of the most productive fantasy options at his position lately, and he'll look to extend his hot streak during Week 12 versus the New England Patriots. Sanders has posted double-digit fantasy points in back-to-back games and three of his last four contests. Over the last two weeks, he has gone 6-for-6 on extra points and 5-for-5 on field goals, including two from beyond 50 yards. This week, the 29-year-old faces a Patriots defense that has been somewhat stingy against kickers but is also quite capable of surrendering points. Thus, Sanders ranks just inside the top 12 for this week. He's worth starting in leagues with at least 12 teams, and he can even be considered in 10-team formats.
