QB |
| Philip Rivers |
SDC |
WAS |
What passing numbers QB2 types cobble together over the course of a game fantasy studs such as Rivers are sometimes capable of in just two or three quarters. ( 165 yds pass with 1 TD ) |

QB |
| Drew Brees |
NOS |
CAR |
Is the 3rd QB on the depth chart this week. |
| 37 |
RB |
 | Ray Rice |
BAL |
OAK |
This week's #1 scorer! Oakland's run defense is non-existent, expect a show. ( 134 yds rush and 1 TD; 7 catches for 55 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 19 |
RB |
| Ryan Grant |
GBP |
ARI |
Will find the end zone at least once this week. ( 75 yds rush and 2 TDs ) |
| 4 |
RB |
| Cedric Benson |
CIN |
NYJ |
They're not playing for anything and are too likely to be pulled early to reliably start anybody. Look elsewhere. The Jets benefit for the second week in a row. ( 37 yds rush; 1 catch for 8 yds ) |
| 29 |
RB |
| Adrian Peterson |
MIN |
NYG |
Giants have packed it in, will run wild. ( 120 yds rush and 2 TDs; 3 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 5 |
WR |
| Julian Edelman R |
NEP |
HOU |
Edelman is buried too far down the depth chart. ( 2 catches for 30 yds ) |
| 18 |
WR |
| Larry FitzgeraldP |
ARI |
GBP |
Will face a solid secondary but still get his usual stats. ( 5 catches for 70 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 24 |
WR |
| Miles Austin |
DAL |
PHI |
Austin had his 4-game scoring streak stopped last week, but he'll be good for a TD in the finale which the winner will claim the NFC East title! ( 7 catches for 110 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 15 |
WR |
| Reggie WayneP |
IND |
BUF |
Actually gets decent stats, even playing less than a full game ( 4 catches for 50 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 15 |
TE |
| Brent Celek |
PHI |
DAL |
Celek now has to be considered to be in the upper echelon of NFL TE's. He consistently gets the yardage and will score every other game. ( 4 catches for 55 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 9 |
PK |
| Jay Feely |
NYJ |
CIN |
Feely has been one of the better fantasy kicker options the past few weeks. ( 2 XPs, 2 FGs ) |
