Start: Joe Mixon — Cincinnati Bengals (at NE)
In Cincinnati’s last game before its Bye, Mixon singlehandedly won fantasy matchups for thousands of people. The star back recorded just his second 20-point fantasy score of the season in Cincinnati’s win over the Falcons. Mixon finished the afternoon with 153 rushing yards, 58 receiving yards, and FIVE touchdowns — good for a PPR score of 55.10. Mixon returned two weeks ago following a two-game absence, and the star didn’t disappoint. Mixon rushed for 96 yards on just 14 carries and caught two passes, as well. While Mixon struggled against Tampa Bay (54 total yards), we think he will slice up the Patriots.
