NFL Fantasy Football Duds

Entering Week 11, let’s take a look back at the first 10 weeks and who the biggest fantasy duds have been this season.

Randy Moss:

For a top 10 pick in most leagues, Moss has definitely underwhelmed. He his on his third team this season and he better become effective soon.

Moss has only two double-digit fantasy outings this season and only four TDs on the year. It’s not even like Moss is piling on yardage this season either, he has yet to break 100 receiving yards in any game this season and i’m not sure that stat will change.

While I feel that Moss can still be that deep threat, I’m just not sure if that’s how he will be utilized.  Moss may be just used as a decoy for the remainder of the season, so while Moss owners may be unhappy, Nate Washington owners might be ecstatic (just like Wes Welker and Percy Harvin owners were earlier).

Carolina backfield:

What a dismal year it has been for any Panthers fantasy option. But running back was an area that no one doubted. With DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart both coming off 1,000 yard seasons, there was no sign these two would slow down.

Both backs never got on track and they have burned their fantasy owners (not to mention Panthers fans everywhere) this season. Williams only had one TD on the year and never broke 100 rushing yards. Stewart had two total TDs (one rushing and one receiving) but he never even broke 50 rushing yards in any game.

Both have been hurt the past few weeks and Williams is on the injured reserve, thereby ending his season with only 361 rushing yards. Stewart only has 208 rushing yards and will miss his second straight game with a concussion.

There hasn't been much to celebrate in Carolina this season, especially not by these two. Picture courtesy of mkrob.com

Brandon Marshall:

While Marshall had two 100 yard games in his first five games this season, he has been disappointing in the other eight game played. He only has one TD on the year and in my ESPN league this season he has only mustered 16 total fantasy points in the eight games outside of his 100 yard performances.  

Marshall has a lot of room to improve and the change at QB might be a good thing for him. While he didn’t “Wow” anyone this past game with Thigpen, Marshall did have three catches for 41 yards, right on par with the rest of his weak performances.

Maybe he can develop some connection with Thigpen in the weeks to come.

This is just an opinion…so please Pardon My Bias.
