Minnesota Vikings Fantasy Start/Sit: Week 10 vs. Dallas Cowboys

Vikings to sit in Week 10:

Kirk Cousins – QB

Kirk Cousins went from having a great four games in October to starting out November with a stinker. The three touchdowns may have saved your fantasy days, but looking closer at the contest, his fantasy numbers lie to you.

He completed just 50 percent of his passes for only 220 yards, he overthrew Stefon Diggs a few times, and he missed on multiple swing passes.

The Cousins that won Offensive Player of the Month in October was not there last Sunday and may not be there this Sunday either. The Vikings may have to rely more on Dalvin Cook this week if they want a chance on winning Sunday night since we all know how poor Cousins plays in primetime.

Adam Thielen – WR

Minnesota thought it was a good idea to let Adam Thielen play last week against the Chiefs. He got a few snaps on offense, but he then left for the rest of the game after tweaking his hamstring again. He is going to be out of Sunday’s matchup, so he better be on your fantasy bench.

Cowboys to sit in Week 10:

Dak Prescott – QB

There’s no denying that Dak Prescott has had an amazing first half of the year. He has thrown for nearly 2,400 passing yards and 15 touchdowns in addition to rushing for three scores.

He’s been a top option that fantasy owners have enjoyed putting in their lineups week in and week out. But he has yet to face a defense that’s in the top half of the league in either rushing or passing.

He’s going to get his first real test of the season this week on Sunday night and the Vikings’ defense should be able to cause problems for Prescott and the Cowboys’ offense.
