Week 14 Fantasy Flops: Who can you trust in the playoffs?
D'Andre Swift
Swift is the RB17 on the year, but he was much higher just three weeks ago. After a terrible start to the year in Week 1 (1.30 points), Swift ripped off 7 straight weeks of double digits, a 9.40 game, and then a 19.7 game against Kansas City.
Starting with the win against Buffalo three weeks ago, Philadelphia has shut Swift out of the passing game. He had four yards against the Bills, seven against the 49ers, and 0 against Dallas. The last three weeks he has averaged under 5 Fantasy points/game.
Philadelphia, and Philadelphia's offense, has been unproductive the last two weeks as they have been blown out by the 49ers and Cowboys (two of the best defenses in the league). Next week they get Seattle. Against running backs, Seattle gives up the fifth most Fantasy points, the 11th most rushing yards, the second most rushing touchdowns, the 12th most receptions, ninth most receiving yards, and 12th most receiving touchdowns.
Philadelphia needs a morale boost this week and Swift can be a big help. Swift was a Blip last week, and he should be in your lineup this week.
