Fantasy Football: Week 11 predictions to count on

The Yahoo team delivers their most steadfast predictions for Week 11.

Just four weeks ago, during the first quarter of Wilson’s first start of the season, many of us were begging for Pittsburgh to pull the plug and reinsert Justin Fields at QB.

As ever, the NFL remains the wildest and least predictable league. Russ is currently undefeated and coming off a signature win in which he tossed three TD passes.
