Fantasy football advice, Week 11: Who to start/sit for Tennessee Titans vs. Indianapolis Colts

The playoff push gets more intense in Week 11, and fantasy owners have less and less room for error as the season goes on. More than ever, sleepers and busts need to be accounted for over the course of every game to avoid making a season-dooming mistake. When the Titans square off against the Colts, several notable players who garner fantasy consideration need to be accounted for.

Marcus Mariota remains the No. 1 quarterback in fantasy football since Week 5, and it’s hard to imagine that changing against a Colts pass defense which ranks dead last. Rishard Matthews and Delanie Walker remain in starting consideration under Mariota’s stellar play and are both upside options at their respective positions. Oh, and Demarco Murray? He’s pretty good, too. He remains a no-brainer RB1 for Week 11 and beyond.

Upside exists for the Titans’ committee of receivers, but the volatility behind Kendall Wright and Tajae Sharpe doesn’t inspire much confidence. If fantasy owners are in need of a boom-or-bust option due to injury or bye weeks, they could certainly do worse than either of the two.

What began as a steady defensive unit has declined rapidly over the last few weeks, and the Titans now house the NFL’s 24th-ranked pass defense. It’s music to the ears of Andrew Luck owners, and T.Y. Hilton, Donte Moncrief and Jack Doyle can all be considered start-worthy in a potential shootout. With Moncrief, Dwayne Allen and Philip Dorsett out of action when these teams last met, Doyle and Hilton combined for 16 catches, 211 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Frank Gore remains a focal point of the offense and hasn’t totaled fewer than 78 yards in any game in 2016. He remains a high-floor RB2 for Week 11 and beyond.

Dorsett, Allen and the rest of the Colts’ complementary receivers and backs can remain on benches in all formats.
