Who Should I Start? Younghoe Koo or Greg Joseph

Saturday, October 12, 11:15 AM

Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo ranks near the top in fantasy points at the position so far in 2024, with his last seven makes coming from 40 yards or more. The Atlanta offense really got rolling last week and gets another favorable matchup in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have been terrible against both the pass and run, so the Falcons should have no problem moving the ball down the field which should provide Koo with plenty of opportunity. The drawback perhaps is that Carolina has been too forgiving, which could lead to touchdowns and only extra points for the 30-year-old kicker, but with one of the higher projected totals on the board (46.5) and beautiful weather conditions projected in Charlotte, this game sets up nicely for the seven-year veteran.

New York Giants kicker Greg Joseph will look to rebound in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles after a disappointing Week 6 where he missed both of his field goal attempts, potentially costing the Giants a chance to stay competitive in their 17-7 loss to the Bengals. Joseph has struggled with consistency this season, hitting just 72.7% of his field goals and missing three from the 40-49 yard range. For Joseph to make a fantasy impact, he'll need to capitalize on every opportunity moving forward as starter Graham Gano may be returning soon from injury.
