FanHouse fantasy positional rankings are compiled weekly by the staff in order to provide answers to possible lineup questions. These are assuming most leagues use Fleaflicker's standard scoring structure. If you need clarification, you need more players ranked, or have funky league rules, feel free to shoot us an email question.Though this is the most fickle and unpredictable aspect of fantasy sports, you have to just do your best with kickers. Doing your best is trying to find a team that can move the ball a bit, but also can get stopped in field goal range a few times. Sometimes it works. Sometimes you end up with one extra point and that's it. Thus is the life of trying to predict where the next bolt of lightning will strike.
For this week, I like the Bears and Titans defenses to hold down the offenses a bit. Each offense, however, has enough weaponry to get the ball into field goal range a few times.
Also, Rian Lindell of Buffalo has been very consistent this season, a rarity at this position. Bills against Pats seems to qualify for the above conditions.
