QB |
| Aaron Rodgers |
GBP |
ARI |
Probably not a full game's worth of stats, but good numbers. ( 250 yds pass with 2 TDs ) |
| 25 |
RB |
| Jonathan StewartP |
CAR |
NOS |
With Smith out, Carolina will rely heavily on the ground game. Stewart showing he can more than shoulder the load when given the opportunity. ( 120 yds rush and 2 TDs; 1 catch for 10 yds ) |
| 27 |
RB |
 | Adrian Peterson |
MIN |
NYG |
Giants have packed it in, will run wild. ( 120 yds rush and 2 TDs; 3 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 13 |
WR |
| Reggie WayneP |
IND |
BUF |
Actually gets decent stats, even playing less than a full game ( 4 catches for 50 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 14 |
WR |
| Vincent Jackson |
SDC |
WAS |
May or may not play the whole game, but Washington has struggled mightily against opposing wideouts. Besides, it makes little sense for fantasy owners to bench him now. ( 4 catches for 65 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 16 |
WR |
| Michael Crabtree R |
SFO |
STL |
Strong finish to a rookie campaign many doubted. ( 6 catches for 75 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 11 |
TE |
| Todd HeapP |
BAL |
OAK |
Heap's on a TD streak! Just when he's written off he bounces back, which means once fantasy owners take notice he'll go back to doing nothing again. Such is life with Heap... ( 3 catches for 40 yds and 1 TD ) |

Def |
| Denver Broncos |
DEN |
KCC |
Great matchup for this defense; the Chiefs don't protect Matt Cassel very well and have been turning the ball over a lot. ( 3 sacks, 2 INTs, 1 Fumble, 10 Points, 300 Yards ) |

QB |
| Jason Campbell |
WAS |
SDC |
Regardless of San Diego mostly playing their backups (as they are expected to do), Campbell has played horrible these last two starts and is way too risky. ( 215 yds pass with 1 TD and 1 Int; 15 yds rush ) |
| 4 |
RB |
| Shonn Greene R |
NYJ |
CIN |
Greene sees some limited action in relief of Jones. ( 40 yds rush ) |
| 8 |
RB |
| Darren Sproles |
SDC |
WAS |
Has a shot at even more production, depending upon how soon the Chargers ground game becomes the Sproles & Tolbert show. ( 45 yds rush; 3 catches for 30 yds ) |
| 6 |
RB |
| Lex Hilliard |
MIA |
PIT |
Upgrade Hilliard if Williams can't play. ( 30 yds rush; 2 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 3 |
WR |
| Patrick Crayton |
DAL |
PHI |
Has no value in any fantasy format. ( 2 catches for 25 yds ) |
| 7 |
WR |
| Jerricho Cotchery |
NYJ |
CIN |
Cotchery hasn't seen any red zone action since week 11. ( 4 catches for 50 yds ) |
| 7 |
WR |
| Mario ManninghamP |
NYG |
MIN |
New York now has an excellent trio of receivers with Smith, Nicks and Manningham. They should all get decent yardage, but don't expect Manningham to score in the finale. ( 4 catches for 55 yds ) |
| 3 |
TE |
| Ben Watson |
NEP |
HOU |
Avoid Watson as he has only been targeted 1 time the past 2 weeks. ( 2 catches for 20 yds ) |
| 8 |
Def |
| Cincinnati Bengals |
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. ( 2 sacks, 2 INTs, 1 Fumble, 27 Points, 394 Yards ) |
