  "account": "Week 9 of the fantasy football season brings a mix of start and sit recommendations. For quarterbacks, consider starting Malik Willis, Dolphins at Lions. Willis has been playing well and the Lions' defense allows many fantasy points to quarterbacks. However, don't bench Drew Lock, Seahawks at Cardinals, as he has already played well against the Cardinals' defense. Sit Geno Smith, Jets at Chiefs, as they have one of the top pass defenses in the league. In the running back position, start Jonah Coleman, Broncos vs. Panthers, as they have the second-most fantasy points allowed to running backs per game. Sit Ollie Gordon, Dolphins at Lions, as the Lions' defense allows few rushing yards and touchdowns to running backs. In the wide receiver position, start KC Concepcion, Browns vs. Saints, as he is the Browns' No. 1 receiver and the Saints' pass defense is middle of the road. Sit Jalen Coke, as the Eagles have allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers.",
