Green Bay Packers @ Detroit Lions

QB Aaron Rodgers: Just look what Brady Quinn did last week. Enough said. *****
RB Ryan Gant: Has been running hard and has a great match-up. *****
WR Greg Jennings: Broke-out last week and should kill on Thursday. *****
WR Donald Driver: Tasty match-up, so great play. ****
WR James Jones: Could get some looks underneath. **
WR Jordy Nelson: Scored last week, so should be involved. **
TE Jermichael Finley: Has a decent role and nice match-up helps. ***

QB Matthew Stafford: Is a game-time decision and not a great match-up. **
QB Daunte Culpepper: Likely the starter, but not a good play at all. *
RB Kevin Smith: Won’t go very far against solid run defense. **
WR Calvin Johnson: An iffy play, but could do some damage if he’s a go. ***
WR Bryant Johnson: Should see solid targets if CJ can’t go. **
TE Brandon Pettigrew: Doesn’t do much, and Green Bay stuff tight ends. *

Oakland Raiders @ Dallas Cowboys

QB Bruce Gradkowski: Looked decent, but was horrible last time he played on Thanksgiving. **
RB Michael Bush: In a big RBBC, but running is Oakland’s only chance. **
RB Darren McFadden: Best potential out of group, and his role is growing. ***
RB Justin Fargas: Had most carries last week, but role is uncertain. **
WR Darrius Heyward-Bey: He nor no other Oakland receivers are worthy owning. *
TE Zach Miller: Value rises with Gradkowski, but ceiling still limited. ***

QB Tony Romo: Not a great threat against very stingy secondary. **
RB Marion Barber: Should pound the rock against horrible run defense. ****
RB Felix Jones: Could be active, but Barbers is getting the ball more. **
RB Tashard Choice: Ditto. **
WR Miles Austin: Has been quiet, but there’s hope for a big play or two. ***
WR Roy Williams: Could see some looks, but doesn’t offer a ton of optimism. **
TE Jason Witten: Might not even play, and match-up stinks. **

New York Giants @ Denver Broncos

QB Eli Manning: Has looked very good the past two weeks, and Broncos are reeling. ****
RB Brandon Jacobs: Should be all by himself and Denver hasn’t been stopping the run. ****
RB Ahmad Bradshaw: Out.
RB Danny Ware: Should see increased role, but how much? *
WR Steve Smith: Is a solid WR2 and could see solid production this week. ****
WR Hakeem Nicks: Very inconsistent lately, but WR3 potential is always there. **
WR Mario Manningham: Has been very involved lately, so a decent play. ***
TE Kevin Boss: Has scored four times in last three games, so worth a shot. ***

QB Kyle Orton: Giants leaky secondary could be his cure for awful stretch. ***
RB Knowshon Moreno: Giants can be run on, and he’s looked solid. ***
RB Correll Buckhalter: Inconsistent role, but is facing beatable defense. **
WR Brandon Marshall: Was terrible last week, but should get back on track. ****
WR Eddie Royal: Too inconsistent to rely on. **
WR Jabar Gaffney: Ditto. *
