Who Should I Start? Michael Pittman Jr. or Zay Flowers

Monday, November 24, 5:54 AM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. caught five of his eight targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in a 23-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. Pittman scored the first touchdown of the game when he pulled in a six-yard pass from Daniel Jones with 8:06 left in the first quarter. It was mostly a quiet day after that for Pittman as the Colts only managed two field goals in the second half. Pittman has been a solid fantasy receiver this season as he has 59 catches for 607 yards and seven touchdowns in 11 games this year. He will look to keep it going in Week 13 against the Houston Texans.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers is quite possibly one of the most consistent options in PPR leagues. Not consistent as in always in the running for WR1 overall, more like consistently putting up average fantasy numbers that are good if he's the flex player every week. He still has a touchdown-less streak and non-WR1 streak going since Week 1. In Week 13, he'll take on the Cincinnati Bengals, who have rolled out quite the atrocious defense over the last couple of seasons. For fantasy purposes, however, the Bengals actually rank tenth against receivers and have only given up six receiving touchdowns all season. Rashod Bateman (ankle) also returns to the lineup, so Flowers is still projected as a mid-level WR2.
