Fantasy Friday Week 13: Start'Em, Sit'Em
Alex Malchow
After a thrilling Week 12, that featured some amazing Fantasy performances from Zach Edwards, Austin Mitchell, and Jadrian Clark, we have everything you need to move up the leaderboard this weekend. Make sure to login every week and check on where you are in the leaderboard standing of thousands of Fantasy manager players across the globe.
With that out of the way, let me, Alex Malchow, take a look at some key players to consider in your lineup this week!
Start'Em Week 13
QB Ben Holmes, Vienna Vikings (3,120,000 GC)
Holmes and the Vikings are coming off of a bye week and should be well rested. Expect Holmes to have a big day as Vienna hopes to hit the playoffs playing at a high level, as well as finish out the season with a perfect regular season record. With Toure, Horn, Bierbaumer, Pajarinnen and others, Holmes has all the tools to have another big day against the Enthroners defense.
WR Louis Geyer, Stuttgart Surge (2,670,000 GC)
Believe it or not the Surge lost last week. Based on that alone I'm tempted to start all of their players as coach Neuman will certainly do everything he can to get this team back on track. Especailly as they face a Dragons team that gave up 90 points last week. Geyer was relatively quiet against the Raiders last week and will be a key to their success this week and the rest of the season.
WR Carlos Hill, Cologne Centurions (2,750,000 GC)
Two weeks ago Hill had perhaps the best receiving game of the ELF season putting up an eye-popping 16 catches for 206 yards and three total touchdowns. However, last week the 5 '9 speedster was held to only 55 yards. In what should be a close game with Hamburg, I expect Cologne's quarterback Isaiah Weed to look for Hill all day long.

Sit'Em Week 13
QB N’Kosi Perry, Raiders Tirol (3,070,000 GC)
Perry was phenomenal against the Surge last week putting up 265 passing yards and four total touchdowns. Most importantly he led the game winning drive and threw a laser touchdown in crunch time. This week, however has all the makings of a let down game for the Raiders as they host the 3-7 Seamen. Expect a slow start from Tirol and Perry after what was the biggest win of the season last week.
RB Sandro Platzgummer, Frankfurt Galaxy (2,420,000 GC)
The NFL IPP running back played well last week and finally looks to be healthy after battling injuries all season. Platzgummer put up 122 total yards as the Galaxy beat the Bravos. This week he will be lining up across from the league's best defender in AJ Wentland. Expect Wentland to meet Platzgummer in the backfield repeatedly this game. Wentland has held rushers in check this season and I see the trend continuing this week.
WR Aaron Jackson, Berlin Thunder (3,120,000 GC)
Jackson has been one of the ELF’s Fantasy Managers top scorers week in and week out. However, against a Rhein Fire defense that seems to be hitting its stride i’d rather leave him on the bench. Berlin played (and won) its super bowl last week against the Panthers. Now going up against the Rhein Fire’s defense could be a tough ask to have Jackson produce at a star level once again.
