Two attempts for three yards before hammy issues against the Ravens. Injuries happen but you likely drafted this guy pretty damn high if you have him. A top half of the draft first rounder should have more than 126 yards rushing for you by now. Could go down as the bust of the year at RB.
RB: Edgerrin James, Cardinals
We don’t expect a lot out of Edge anymore. We want a serviceable, hopefully, RB2. We do however expect more than 29 yards on the ground. He is losing more and more carries to Tim Hightower by the week, especially around the goal line. Sucks for those that looked at the numbers from last year and how he was fed the ball when they drafted him.
WR: Terrell Owens, Cowboys
Four receptions for 36 yards. Yikes. Lucky, and unlucky for Owens, that will be overshadowed by the fact that Tony Romo will not be throwing him the ball for the next month. Brad Johnson will be the guy in Dallas for a while. On the bright side they get St. Louis first.
WR: Santana Moss, Redskins
Boooooo. Second straight week for Moss on Team Dud. We thought things would pick up with the Redskins playing the Rams but not so. Ya know, the Redskins just may be one of those teams that could use more than one threat in the passing game for defenses to look at. Maybe some draft picks need to step up.
TE: Dallas Clark, Colts
Not a good season for Clark owners and not a good game last week. Only two catches for 17 yards. As we see Marvin Harrison look a little like his old self, we are reminded that Clark is not always needed. Maybe next week, huh?
DT/ST: New York Giants
They were bound to drop the ball in a game this season and drop the ball the Giants defense did this week against the Browns. Allowing 454 net yards and 35 points…ouch. In some leagues that was worth negative points if your league allows them. Had to bite to go into the Monday night game ahead by a point with just the Giants D to play…and lose.
Individual Defensive Players (IDP)
LB: Lance Briggs, Bears
There were no real terrible performances from the linebackers this week. But…since we said last week that Briggs was the Bears LB to have and he only posted four tackles, we will go with him this week. He is still a Top 10 LB right now and far ahead of Urlacher in the IDP game.
DL: John Abraham, Falcons
Going into the week Abraham was one of the top IDP defensive lineman. Only putting out two tackles on the week had to be a bummer for the owners that have been rolling in the hard to get DL points.
DB: Antoine Winfield, Vikings
After his monster week last week against the Saints, owners had to be pretty damned happy to have Winfield on their roster. This week, not so much. He was a must start but logged only two tackles in his worst performance yet. No need to fret Winfield owners. Everyone has bad weeks. He is still a Top Three IDP defensive back in scoring even with that game.
