Who to start: Jeff Reed or Lawrence Tynes (yes it matters)?

Of course kickers matter even in traditional leagues. It's just that week to week performance is more of a guess with kickers. Right now, Reed is the #2 fantasy kicker in standard Yahoo scoring while Tynes is #25. While you may not be in a traditional scoring system, this is relevant to you because the Steelers are moving the ball but not getting into the end zone resulting in a lot of opportunities for Reed. Tynes actually has one more extra point than Reed but only 2 FGs vs 8 for Reed. I would expect the trend to continue against the Ravens - the Steelers will be in a low scoring game with a lot of FG attempts. The Giants look like a team in trouble to me. I wouldn't even have Tynes on the roster at this point. There should be options who are outperforming him - like Gano for the Redskins.
