Fantasy Football's Week Seven "Dark Horses"

By John Arias

The Dark Horses keep delivering and this week is no different. Looking for whom to start? The answer is waiting down below. Another four teams are on a bye week and there are still plenty of good players to start, which leads to this week players.

Matt Schaub, QB, Houston Texans

The Texans finally seems to be clicking on all cylinders. Schaub threw for over 300 yards in his last two games and is finding Andre Johnson more and more. This week, the Texans will face the Lions, and it should be a high-scoring affair for the Texans.

Prediction: 319 yards and two touchdowns.

Antwaan Randle El, WR, Washington Redskins

He is becoming Jason Campbell’s safety blanket and continues to produce each week. The Redskins will look to recover from the devastating loss to the Rams at home against the Browns. The Browns are coming off a defining win over the Super Bowl champs and the Redskins will come out firing.

Prediction: 7 receptions for 92 yards.

Vernon Davis, TE, San Francisco 49ers

He had more yardage and receptions in Week Six than his previous four games combined. Will this be the week that he becomes consistent? It is a great question, but TE Steve Heiden had a great game against the Giants and they have shown they are susceptible to the tight end.

Prediction: 4 receptions for 58 yards.
