Week nine of the season is in the books and after a week off, I am back to give you my winners, losers, and waiver wire wonders from the week; Let’s go!
Winners
QB – Kurt Warner – Arizona Cardinals – 22 Completions, 32 Attempts, 261 Yards, 5 TD's, zero interceptions, one fumble
Warner rebounded from a five interception game to throw for 261 yards and five touchdowns. This was the Kurt Warner that we all expected when he was drafted as your fantasy starter and he remains an every week must start.
RB – Michael Turner – Atlanta Falcons – 18 carries, 166 Yards, two TD's, two receptions, 14 Yards
Turner has now rushed for 367 yards and four touchdowns in the last three games and doesn’t appear to be slowing down. He is producing every bit like a first round draft pick and remains an every week must start.
RB – Chris Johnson – Tennessee Titans – 25 carries, 135 Yards, two TDs, three receptions, 25 Yards
Johnson has rushed for 491 yards and four touchdowns in the last three games and now has 959 yards and six touchdowns on the year. He is on fire right now and is showing why he was a first or second round draft pick. Keep starting him every week.
RB – DeAngelo Williams – Carolina Panthers – 21 Carries, 149 Yards, two TD, two receptions, 12 Yards, one fumble
Williams has started to show why he was a first round pick, rushing for 548 yards and five Touchdowns in the last four games. Continue to start him every week.
WR – Randy Moss – New England Patriots – six receptions, 147 Yards, one TD
Another star player showing why he is one of the best at his position. Moss caught six balls for 147 yards and a touchdown to raise his season totals to 49 receptions for 712 yards and five touchdowns. He is another must start every week.
WR – Mike Sims-Walker – Jacksonville Jaguars – six Receptions, 147 Yards, one TD
Sims Walker has been a complete surprise this season. He has surpassed Torry Holt as Jacksonville’s number one receiver and has amassed 36 receptions for 554 yards and four touchdowns on the year. He has a tough matchup this week against the Jets.
WR – Larry Fitzgerald – Arizona Cardinals – nine receptions, 123 Yards, two TD's
Another star player showing why he is one of the best at his position, Fitzgerald is playing extremely well and proving that maybe the Madden Curse isn’t real after all. He caught nine balls for 123 yards and two touchdowns last week to raise his season totals to 56 receptions for 632 yards and seven touchdowns. He is another must start every week.
TE – Dallas Clark – Indianapolis Colts – 14 Receptions, 119 Yards
Clark has been exactly what we expected. He has 60 receptions (second in the NFL) and 703 yards with three touchdowns. He looks to be Peyton Manning’s go to guy and should be started every week.
TE – Vernon Davis – San Francisco 49ers – 10 Receptions, 102 Yards
Where did this come from? Davis has been a complete bust since his rookie year and now all of a sudden he is the top fantasy tight end. While he is on such a hot streak, you have to start him every week.
Losers
QB – Kyle Orton – Denver Broncos – 23 Completions, 38 Attempts, 221 Yards, zero TD, three interceptions
Orton had his first bad game with the Broncos this past week against Pittsburgh. He threw three interceptions and failed to get his team into the end zone. This makes two straight weeks with no touchdowns and shouldn’t be started until he gets back on track.
QB – Joe Flacco – Baltimore Ravens – 18 Completions, 32 Attempts, 195 Yards, zero TD, two interceptions
