Who Should I Start? Jake Elliott or Evan McPherson

Saturday, December 13, 12:49 PM

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott set his season high for field goals made in his most recent outing against the Chargers, hitting four of his attempts, but also registered his sixth missed kick of the season-a 48-yard field goal try at the end of the first half. After starting perfect through the first six weeks of the season, Elliott has gone on to miss at least one kick in five games since. He'll try to get back on track this weekend as Philly hosts the Raiders, who allow the ninth-most points per game to opposing offenses (25.5). What's also frightening about Elliott's prospects is that the Eagles have scored more than 20 points only once in their last five games. While they should have an easier time with Las Vegas, Elliott's accuracy woes are still concerning enough to warrant looking for better options in Week 15.

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson had a career-high six field goals in the Week 13 win over the Baltimore Ravens. However, his services weren't needed much in the recent loss to the Buffalo Bills, ending the day without an attempt. With that said, McPherson has been a top-10 fantasy kicker this season. While it's illogical to assume the 26-year-old will have another career showing, he's still a must-start in the rematch versus Baltimore in Week 15 in a game that should feature plenty of scoring from both sides.
