Welcome everyone to the score fantasy football podcast.

I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at the score.

Appreciate you downloading and listening to the show today.

It's the weekly start, sit, stash, quit episode. And I know a lot of people miss that SSSQ article that I used to do in past years. Don't worry. I'm going to do our best to bring it back next season. It just comes down to the amount of hours in the week. And unfortunately, there is no way that I can work more than I already do during the NFL season.

But that's why we love it this time of year. That's why we love the grind that comes with it. And we'll have three weeks left in the fantasy regular season. We'll get six weeks left if you may get to the fantasy championship. And that is the goal here. So let's kick things off with some of the notable starts for week 12. And we've been loving the rookie class all year long, especially the quarterbacks. And Jaden Daniels, he has a great matchup with the Cowboys this week, but he's a little bit too obvious for this space. So I'm going to go with Bo Nix. I only have Nix a few spots behind Daniels. And Nix has finished as a top 12 fantasy QB in five of his last

seven games and his opponent this week, the Raiders, they're giving up the seventh most fantasy

points to quarterbacks on the year, including five top 10 weekly fantasy finishes.

And that includes the game that they played against Nix back in week five.

He ended up as the QB eight on the week in that one, and he

accounted for three touchdowns in that game, two through the air and one on the ground. So I

would expect another solid performance from Knicks here. For my start at running back,

we're going back to an old faithful James Connor at the Seahawks. And Connor has over 100

scrimmage yards and or a touchdown in eight of his

10 appearances on the season. He just keeps getting better no matter how old he is. He's the RB 10

in fantasy points per game over the last five weeks. And now he's coming off a buy. So he should be

nice and rested here for the stretch run. And that starts in Seattle this week. Seahawks, they're allowing the 11th most fantasy points to running backs.

They've also given up at least 95 scrimmage yards to a back in six straight games.

And in their last meeting with Connor back in 2023, Connor put up 150 rushing yards and 54 receiving yards.

And on top of that, he found the end zone one time. So expect another big stat line here from Connor. He's going to be a strong fantasy RB1 in week 12. At receiver, we're going to go to the other side of the field in that game because you got to like the recent usage that the Seahawks have been given to Jackson Smith and Jigba. In the first half of the season, he popped up. he had a couple good games, but it wasn't the same. It wasn't what we're seeing from him now. In the first half of the season, he was just like a borderline fantasy starter. It kind of depended on the matchup. But the last two outings here, he has seen his numbers spike. Seven catches, 180 yards, and two scores on 13 targets against the Rams.

And you could say in that game, well, D.K. Metcalf was sideline.

He was hurt.

So that's why JSN went off.
