Should You Start or Sit Smith in Week 14?
If you need me to sell you on fading Smith, you haven’t been paying attention.
If you need me to sell you on fading the Broncos matchup, you haven’t been paying attention.
This very movable force met the immovable object a month ago, and it went about how you’d expect: 5.5 yards per attempt, zero touchdowns, and six sacks.
I’d rarely advocate for a reasonable WR3 over a QB in a Superflex setting, but yeah, I’d rather play Smith’s former teammate in Jakobi Meyers (vs. IND) if stuck between a rock and a hard place in a league like that. Smith has two finishes better than QB15 this season, has two multi-pass-TD games over his past eight games, and hasn’t reached 15 rushing yards in a game since September.
