In the Game
Quarterbacks:
Ben Rothlisberger - The Bear defense is injured and the secondary is suspect. If Big Ben can carve up the Titans, he should be able to do nearly as well against Da Bearz.
Matt Ryan - The Panthers seem a team in decline, fast decline, both offensively and defensively, while the Falcons are headed in the other, better direction, including Ryan
Aaron Rodgers - Rodgers will go off against the Bengals, take last week, he was a couple drops and a couple yards from a have a huge game against the Bears
Runningbacks:
Matt Forte - Most owners are looking to sit Forte this week, yet the loss of Polamalu hurts the Pittsburgh defense and they will not be nearly as flexible, and while Forte might not knock it out of the park, a 100 combined yards with a TD is reasonable.
Leon Washington - Washington will create match up issues for the Patriot linebacks, if Sanchez can get him the ball, 100 combined yards and a TD is likely here as well
Chris Johnson - The Texan defense was steady, but did allow Thomas Jones over 100 yards, and Johnson is a more dynamic back.
Brandon Jacobs - This is a feeling pick, but I think Jacobs is going to do well against the Boys
Wide Receivers:
Larry Fitzgerald - Without a late TD, his day last week would have been a bomb, this week is all good.
Marques Colston - He got lost in the fray and the party against the Lions, but Drew will find him often against the Eagles
Santonio Holmes - I have never been impressed with Holmes, but his growing consistency is winning me over.
Wes Welker - if you have him in a PPR league, start him!
Tight Ends:
John Carlson - He made a believer out of me, and I am not sure Matt Hasslebeck will stop throwing his way or that the 49'er defense can stop it.
Chris Cooley - I am not a Jason Campbell fan, but I see just enough balls coming to Cooley to make his day good
On the Bench
Quarterbacks:
Mark Sanchez - The Hoodie will have some surprises for the rookie, and even though he looked very good in the opener, the Patriot defense will confuse and pester him all day.
Tom Brady - The Jet defense is going to bring the house and a lot of creative looks. Brady is too good to put down entirely, but he won't have an exceptional game
Eagles QBs - If Donovan starts, he won't finish the game, and Kolb is basically a rookie. Neither will point well from a fantasy perspective, especially if time is split
Runningbacks:
Ray Rice - The Charge defense is strong, and will key on Rice.
Tim Hightower - Anyone who is betting on a repeat of his 12 catch, 100+ yards last week is either stupid or an idiot or both
Frank Gore - The Seahawk defense looked good last week, I know it was the Rams, but a shut out is a shut out after all
Thomas Jones - Where Leon Washington has the right match up, a traditional back like Jones will not see great success against the Pats.
Wide Receivers:
Donnie Avery - The Skins will shut down the main threat for the Rams.
Vincent Jackson - It is the Ravens after all, and Jackson is still not quite ready for prime time
Reggie Wayne - Somehow, I don't feel the Colt offense, it is not as explosive, it lacks a marque runner, which hurts the passing game, and while I wouldn't sit Wayne, I dont see 100+ yards this weekend
Devin Hester - He was here last week too and he made a fool of me, if he does it against the Steelers, I will put him permanently on the MUST start list.
Tight Ends:
Dustin Keller - I see the Patriots shutting this option down against the young Sanchez, taking away one safety value
Kellen Winslow - I sit him until he proves me otherwise. He is out of Cleveland because he lost his explosiveness, and without that, he is just another TE.
