Week 11
Quarterback
Russell Wilson vs. Atlanta Falcons $37
Analysis: It’s always tough to spend this amount on a quarterback at Yahoo with their tough pricing, but if you want to spend it’s clear to me that Wilson is the best spot. He’s at home against the Falcons who rank 24th in pass DVOA this season and allow an above average success rate to opposing wide receivers per Sharp Football (25th best). Why are receivers the key?, because Seattle has three deadly ones that should be the focus of a volume based pass game as the Seahawks appear to have very little run game right now. The Seahaks lost top cornerback Richard Sherman last week, which should allow the Falcons to have an easier time moving the ball, and is one of my favorite games of the week to go over the total.
