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 |
 | Tony Romo |
DAL |
PHI |
This is what it's all about!!! Romo is hot now and playing Philadelphia for the division title in the regular season finale! He threw for 307 yards in Philadelphia back in November and he's playing even better now. ( 290 yds pass with 2 TDs; 5 yds rush ) |

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 ) |
| 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 ) |
| 18 |
RB |
| Thomas Jones |
NYJ |
CIN |
Jones will see plenty of action at home against the Bengals. ( 70 yds rush and 1 TD; 3 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 19 |
RB |
| Ryan Grant |
GBP |
ARI |
Will find the end zone at least once this week. ( 75 yds rush and 2 TDs ) |
| 26 |
WR |
| Randy MossP |
NEP |
HOU |
Expect another productive week from Moss as he has rebounded from his week 14 performance. ( 6 catches for 80 yds and 2 TDs ) |
| 22 |
WR |
 | Sidney Rice |
MIN |
NYG |
Needs to have a big game. ( 7 catches for 90 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 11 |
WR |
| Marques Colston |
NOS |
CAR |
Plays just enough to find the end-zone. He's a risky play if the Saints decide to sit their starters which it appears they will. ( 2 catches for 30 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 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 ) |
| 8 |
TE |
| Dallas ClarkP |
IND |
BUF |
Stats will suffer if he doesn't play a full game ( 4 catches for 40 yds ) |
| 12 |
PK |
| David Akers |
PHI |
DAL |
You can confidently put Akers in your lineup one last week as the Eagles meet the Cowboys and many points will come! ( 2 XPs, 3 FGs ) |
