That had to have been the best horrible game ever. If you watched Sammie Coates play this Sunday, you probably wanted to pull your hair out on several different occasions. He dropped three passes (some say up to five, depending on the source), but was peppered enough by Ben Roethlisberger (11 targets) to finish with a huge fantasy day (6-139-2).

As long you can refrain from breaking your TV while watching him play, the end result is more than likely going to continue to be positive if he continues to be this involved for Pittsburgh. Over the past two weeks, Coates has seen 19 targets funneled his way, which he has turned into an average line of 6 catches, 109 yards, and a touchdown.

In Week 6, Coates and the Pittsburgh Steelers will face off against the Miami Dolphins, who have one of the league's worst secondaries. Heading into Week 5, Miami had allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing receivers. It was more of the same yesterday, as Marcus Mariota torched them for three touchdowns. Coates is worth an add based on his potential to fill the Martavis Bryant role for Pittsburgh's high-powered offense -- his appealing matchup this week is just an added bonus.
