Who Should I Start? Jason Myers or Evan McPherson

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has had a relatively safe floor in 2024 due to the Seahawks' ability to move the ball down the field. He has remained relatively accurate, but he has not reached the double-digit fantasy heights since Week 2. That could change in Week 7 when the Seahawks visit the Atlanta Falcons. While the Falcons defense is solid, they have been susceptible to opposing offenses putting up big numbers. The Seahawks should have no issue moving the ball. The only thing that may slow down Myers' fantasy production is that he may be kicking a lot of extra points rather than field goals. If you have a kicker such as Brandon Aubrey on bye this week, you could do worse than Myers in your lineup.

Cincinnati Bengals kicker Evan McPherson had a productive game for fantasy managers in the Week 2 meeting against the Chiefs. After making one kick in the Week 1 loss to the Patriots, the 25-year-old had four on Sunday, including a 53-yarder in the fourth quarter. Unfortunately, a missed extra-point attempt would prove costly, with the Chiefs winning the contest by one, thanks to a field goal from Harrison Butker as time expired. At any rate, McPherson is one of the best kickers in the National Football League, meaning he deserves starting consideration in all fantasy lineups when the Bengals meet the Commanders in the Week 3 Monday Night Football matchup.
