QB |
| Ben Roethlisberger |
PIT |
MIA |
All of the stops will be pulled out in this soon-to-be route, Miami can be beaten through the air and that's exactly what Pittsburgh will do, early and often. ( 355 yds pass with 3 TDs; 7 yds rush ) |
| 10 |
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 ) |
| 16 |
RB |
| Jason Snelling |
ATL |
TBB |
Norwood played a larger role than we expected last week. Snelling will see the touches that matter. A visit to the end-zone is expected. ( 60 yds rush and 1 TD; 2 catches for 22 yds ) |
| 16 |
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 ) |
| 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 ) |
| 19 |
WR |
| Derrick MasonP |
BAL |
OAK |
He makes up for that awful, awful drop this week. ( 6 catches for 70 yds and 1 TD ) |
| 13 |
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 ) |
| 13.8 |
PK |
| Matt Prater |
DEN |
KCC |
Another great week to play Prater, as Denver is poised to score a ton of points against the Chiefs at home. ( 2 XPs, 3 FGs ) |
| 12 |
Def |
| Chicago Bears |
CHI |
DET |
The Lions opponent is always ready for a big fantasy day. ( 1 TD, 4 sacks, 3 INTs, 1 Fumble, 10 Points, 200 Yards ) |

QB |
| Donovan McNabb |
PHI |
DAL |
Dallas has only allowed one QB to throw for 300+ yards and that was back in week 2. McNabb threw two picks earlier this season against these Cowboys. ( 280 yds pass with 2 TDs and 2 Ints; 10 yds rush ) |
| 8 |
RB |
| Julius Jones |
SEA |
TEN |
The only holes are on the offense line. Sit him. He's also dinged up. ( 55 yds rush; 2 catches for 11 yds ) |
| 4 |
RB |
| Brian Westbrook |
PHI |
DAL |
You can expect Westbrook to have a similar, limited role as last week. Yes, this is an important game, but Philadelphia is certain of a playoff spot and will more require his services once Week 18 comes. ( 30 yds rush; 1 catch for 5 yds ) |
| 0 |
RB |
| Brandon JacobsI |
NYG |
MIN |
Ruled OUT for the final game of the year. |
| 6 |
RB |
| Reggie Bush |
NOS |
CAR |
Saints players are a risk for production on any given Sunday due to play-maker saturation. Now that they've clinched home field throughout it's even more difficult. ( 20 yds rush; 2 catches for 25 yds ) |
| 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 ) |
| 10.8 |
PK |
| Jay Feely |
NYJ |
CIN |
Feely has been one of the better fantasy kicker options the past few weeks. ( 2 XPs, 2 FGs ) |
| 11.8 |
PK |
| Adam VinatieriP |
IND |
BUF |
Gets more action as the starters come out of the game ( 3 XPs, 2 FGs ) |
