Jets vs. Titans start/sit advice: Chris Ivory, Chris Johnson, Delanie Walker

Man, are these two teams terrible.

Brace Hemmelgarn-USA TODAY Sports

Hoo boy, this one will be a barn-burner. The 2-11 New York Jets against the 2-11 Tennessee Titans lead off the late-afternoon games of Week 15. The Jets have lost three in a row, while the Titans have dropped their last seven. But hey, we're here to talk fantasy.

The Jets have running back Chris Johnson, wide receiver Percy Harvin, tight end Jace Amaro and even kicker Nick Folk on the week's injury report. Johnson and Folk should be fine, and Amaro should return from his concussion and play as well. Harvin, who injured his ankle a week ago and initially looked like he might be done for the season, now appears to be a strong possibility to be active Sunday, though it's hard to imagine he'll be near 100 percent. For the Titans, quarterback Zach Mettenberger is injured and isn't likely to play again this season. Wide receiver Kendall Wright, who missed Week 14 with a hand injury, is shaping up as a game-time decision.

The Titans host the Jets Sunday, with the game scheduled for 4:05 p.m. ET. Here’s a look at the fantasy considerations:

JETS

Start 'em?: Both Chris Ivory and Chris Johnson look like good options against an awful Tennessee run defense; the only problem is that both guys are there, and it's tough to say which will be better. If I'm using one, I'd prefer Ivory. ... Eric Decker looks like a low-end flex option as the best, fully healthy wide receiver on the Jets' roster. ... Nick Folk is coming off his best fantasy game of the season, and it's easy to see the team giving him a lot of kicking chances Sunday. ... The Jets' defense isn't very good, but with that sorry Tennessee offense, you might use the Jets anyway.

Sit 'em: It was a moderately competent Week 14 for Geno Smith, with 15 fantasy points, but come on, it's Geno Smith. ... Percy Harvin's recovery from that ankle injury is impressive, but it's hard to imagine he'll be near 100 percent Sunday. Steer clear. ... Jace Amaro hasn't done anything to warrant using him in fantasy.

TITANS

Start 'em: There is only one Titan you want to even consider using in fantasy, and it's Delanie Walker, who seems like he'll rise back up after a couple of down weeks.

Sit 'em: After a lot of back and forth all season, Jake Locker is back in the starting role for Tennessee, but man is he not a fantasy option. ... Bishop Sankey? Still unusable. ... Kendall Wright might return Sunday, but either way, you want no part of him, no part of Derek Hagan, no part of Nate Washington. ... Fewer than four points a game for Ryan Succop in his last seven. ... Even in what looks like a dream matchup, it's impossible to trust the Titans' defense, with zero points in its last three games combined.

SUMMARY

Start in every league: Delanie Walker

Start if you're desperate: Chris Ivory, Chris Johnson, Eric Decker, Nick Folk, New York defense

Bench: Geno Smith, Percy Harvin, Jace Amaro, Jake Locker, Bishop Sankey, Kendall Wright, Derek Hagan, Nate Washington, Ryan Succop, Tennessee defense
