Fantasy football Week 8 Start 'Em & Sit 'Em: Trevor Lawrence enters electric mode in juicy matchup vs. Colts

With four teams on bye and the playoff push underway, here is how to navigate tricky lineup choices, bench struggling early-round picks and target high-upside matchups

Trevor Lawrence headlines Week 8 Fantasy Football starts as Jamey Eisenberg breaks down start/sits at every position. It's Week 8, and by now you should know what works and what doesn't for your Fantasy roster. You know the players who are helping you win — and the ones who are dragging you down. If your roster is struggling, don't be afraid to make a change. You don't have to start someone just because you drafted them with an early-round pick. Trust me, you aren't hurting anyone's feelings by benching a player in your Fantasy lineup. For those of you who are 4-3, 5-2, 6-1 or 7-0, it might be time to start thinking about the Fantasy playoffs.

Find players with long-term success who have high ceilings and don't worry about the floor. You want league-winners who can carry you across the finish line. It's different for Fantasy managers who are 3-4, 2-5, 1-6 or the dreaded 0-7. You need to do whatever it takes to win now. And it's not too late to still make the playoffs. Of course, injuries and bye weeks are an issue, and we have four teams off in Week 8 (Houston, New Orleans, the Giants and San Francisco). That's a lot of star power missing. But, as always, we'll help you manage with your start
