The San Diego Chargers give up the 18th most points to Quarterbacks in fantasy football according to NFL.com. So that’s roughly in the middle of the pack as far as points go. Considering the options that Flacco has, he’s still averaging 265 yards and 2 TD’s per game.
That’s enough to earn him the starting job if you’re in the market for a better QB1 (especially for the Andrew Luck or Colin Kaepernick owners…). Nonetheless, against these San Diego Chargers, Flacco is in a position to put up decent numbers and help you earn a fantasy win.
Next: Start or Sit Steve Smith, Sr.?
