Teams on bye this week : Houston Texans, New York Giants

Chicago Bears @ San Francisco 49ers

QB Jay Cutler: Cutler played well last week and the 49ers can be passed on. ****
RB Matt Forte: 49ers haven't been great against run, but hes been slacking. ***
WR Devin Hester: At least six grabs in four straight games makes him a dependable WR3. ***
WR Earl Bennett: Caught a good amount of balls last week, but isn't a great option. **
WR Johnny Knox: Always has the potential to get a couple deep, but not consistent. **
TE Greg Olsen: He won't get three scores again, but his stock is rising. ***

QB Alex Smith: Kurt Warner lit up the Bears for 5 TD's, so there's promise there. ***
RB Frank Gore: Bears defense isn't itself, and Gore has been solid. ****
WR Michael Crabtree: Had a down week last week, but could break-out on Sunday. ***
WR Jason Hill: Scored twice last week, but unlikely to match that production again. *
TE Vernon Davis: Getting tons of targets and should be very active. ****

Atlanta Falcons @ Carolina Panthers

QB Matt Ryan: Facing elite pass defense and hasn't looked good. **
RB Michael Turner: Has been on fire and Panthers can be run on. *****
WR Roddy White: Poor showing last week, but should bounce back as solid WR2. ****
WR Michael Jenkins: Could get some looks, but not a great play. *
TE Tony Gonzalez: Always has potential to do damage, so you have to play him. ***

QB Jake Delhomme: Falcons pass defense isn't great, but neither is Delhomme. **
RB DeAngelo Williams: Falcons are only so-so against the run, and he's on fire. *****
RB Jonathan Stewart: Should get enough carries to be a decent Flex. **
WR Steve Smith: He's still a solid WR3 at the worst, and has a decent match-up this week. ***
WR Dwayne Jarrett: He caught four passes last week, but that might be his ceiling. *

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Miami Dolphins

QB Josh Freeman: Looked great in his debut, and Miami isn't a terrible match-up. **
RB Carnell Williams: Is still getting most of the carries and Miami isn't too scary. **
RB Derrick Ward: Got back in the mix and should stay relevant this week. *
WR Antonio Bryant: Missed last week, but could find some big plays if he can go this week. **
WR Sammie Stroughter: Scored last week and could be a top option for Freeman again this week. *
WR Maurice Stovall: He was mildly active last week, but isn't dependable. *
TE Kellen Winslow: Should continue to be active as the rookie Freeman will need him. ***

QB Chad Henne: Has looked good and Buccaneers are still bad on defense. ***
RB Ronnie Brown: Excellent match-up and should be very busy. *****
RB Ricky Williams: Will get enough touches to make it worth your while. ***
WR Davone Bess: OK in PPR leagues, but offers little else. **
WR Greg Camarillo: Has been mildly active, but still risky. **
TE Joey Haynos: Risky play, but is out-playing Fasano. **
