Week 12 Start Sit: 5 things to know about week 12 fantasy football!

Every single week, 300+ fantasy football players are using a lineup setting resource called the Heat Map to dominate their friends, set money-making DFS lineups, and cash in on player prop bets.


The Heat Map offers contextual analysis and expectations for every single player in every single game, every single week, so you know exactly what to expect from any player taking the field.


It's backed by 30+ hours of research per week, often leading me to interesting discoveries and nuggets that fantasy football players and bettors need to be aware of.


I share all of them in the Heat Map each week, but here are 5 interesting things to know before the week 12 fantasy football madness begins on Sunday morning!


By the way, if you want to give the Heat Map a try, I'm giving it away for just $1.99 this week!


🏈 Amon-Ra St. Brown has scored 16 or more PPR points in every single game this season. All 10 of them.


Better yet, Sun God has scored 21 or more PPR points in 4 of the last 6 games, including 30+ in 2 of the last 6.


🏈 Dak Prescott over his first 5 games: 1061 passing yards with 5 TDs and 4 INTs, adding 45 scoreless rushing yards for 11.8 fantasy points per game, scoring fewer than 15 fantasy points in 4 of 5 games.


Dak Prescott over his last 6 games: 1874 passing yards with 18 TDs and 2 INTs, adding 106 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs for 27.6 fantasy points per game, scoring 24 or more fantasy points in 5 of 6 games.


🏈 Over his first 5 games, CeeDee Lamb caught 27 of 35 targets for 358 yards and 1 TD, averaging 14.2 PPR points per game with 4 games under 15 PPR points.


Over his last 6 games, CeeDee Lamb caught 51 of 69 very nice targets for 708 yards and 6 TDs, averaging 26.9 PPR points per game with 6 straight games over 15 PPR points (including 3 games over 30).


🏈 Amon-Ra St. Brown in 3 games that Tim Boyle started in 2021: 26 targets, 21 catches, 220 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns.


He also added 4 carries for 42 yards and 1 TD.


But even without the rushing stats, he averaged 18.3 PPR points per game.


This is a Garrett Wilson tweet.


🏈 Derek Carr's week 12 matchup looks like a good one on paper considering the Falcons are allowing the 5th most passing touchdowns and 5th most fantasy points per game despite holding QBs to the 9th fewest passing yards.


Of course, plenty of that has to do with allowing 24.8 QB rushing yards and 0.4 rushing TDs per game, something Derek Carr is not at all likely to take advantage of while averaging just 3.3 rushing yards per game with NO rushing TDs on the season.


8 QBs in 10 games have been able to score 16 or more fantasy points against the Dirty Birds, but if you eliminate rushing statistics, that number drops to just 3 QBs in 10 games.


(This is why it's really important to dig deeper into the numbers, or let me do it for you).
