Rodgers has thrown just one touchdown since Week Eight. His schedule gets slightly more friendly, as the Bears, Saints, and Panthers can all be beaten through the air. He had better show that against Chicago this Sunday. Especially after Kerry Collins nearly racked up 300 yards against them.
Trent Edwards has more interceptions (five) than touchdowns (two) since Week Eight. His schedule doesn't necessarily get easy, as the AFC East is simply beating up on each other. Two or three of his remaining opponents will be fine matchups, but he's quickly losing the shine that we saw earlier in the season.
It's compounded by the lack of running game in Buffalo. Either it's playcalling, or Lynch and Jackson are that bad. No one has had a 100-yard game for the Bills this season at running back.
Workin' the Wire
- Mark Bradley and Tyler Thigpen- To quote Matthew Berry, "just because it's obvious doesn't make it not true." Thigpen and Bradley have been great surprises, and neither are widely owned enough. With plenty of 12-team leagues out there, these guys should be on rosters.
- Bo Scaife - Just 60 percent owned?? Scaife is Collins' favorite target outside of Justin Gage. With the Titans proving that they are willing to throw the football, Scaife should have better value moving forward.
- BenJarvus Green-Ellis - He's the man in New England, and is coming off a 105-yard day against the Bills. The going might be tougher against the Jets, but he is a true number-one back.
- Matt Cassel- Cassel continues to improve and should be owned in 12-team formats. The fact he isn't a matchup play or backup for teams surprises me. Being only 30 percent owned doesn't add up. Not when he draws some easier secondaries the rest of the way. And Belichick doesn't lose to teams twice in the same season.
- Ted Ginn - As mentioned above, he's showcasing his talents. In leagues that count return yards, Ginn provides even more value. It's like Leon Washington in New York.
