I'm sorry to report that I don't have time to make my normal, thorough "Start 'Em/Sit 'Em" article this week as I normally do, but I still wanted to put up something so we'd still have a forum for fantasy advice with a big week looming. I'll still recommend some players and give my two cents in the comments section as time allows.
Just to continue letting you all know how I'm doing in my personal leagues, I had a down week last week. Very down. 0-3 down. I'm not at 8-4, 7-5, and 8-4 (23-13 combined). My rankings are: 2/10, 6/12, and *3/14 (* = clinched playoff spot).
For this Thanksgiving week 13 slate, here's a few "starts" and "sits":
Quarterbacks
Start 'Em
- Ryan Tannehill, MIA (@ New York Jets)
- Ben Roethlisberger, PIT (vs New Orleans Saints)

Sorry about the abridged version this week, but it'll be back to full strength next week.
Please leave any fantasy related questions you might have in the comments section and I'll try to answer as many and as quickly as I can. It's fun to get everyone's perspectives on this week's matchups floating around down there and I'm always interested to see what kind of decisions different fantasy players have to make. These are just general ideas for standard leagues, but we can all give and receive advice for unique situations as they come up. Good luck!
