TOP NEWS

Colts Jaguars Football
Rams Seahawks Football
Mississippi Football

Rosenfels has passed for at least 224 yards in three of his four starts since taking over for an injured QB Matt Schaub. He is 11th in the league with a 68 completion percentage. Texan WR’s Andre Johnson and Kevin Walter should have solid games on Monday Night Football.

Jeff Garcia (Bucs) vs. Saints

Garcia completed 13-of-18 passes for 2 TDs against the Lions last week. The Saints are 24th in the NFL in passing yards allowed. Garcia threw for 221 yards and a TD against the Saints in Week 1.

Honorable mention: Kerry Collins (Titans) vs. Lions

Sit

Matt Hasslebeck (Seahawks) vs. Cowboys

Since returning from injury Hasslebeck has thrown five INTs in two games. He threw for just 103 yards last week against the Redskins and does not make a good start against the Cowboys in Dallas on Thanksgiving.

Kyle Orton (Bears) vs. Vikings

Orton has thrown for 133 and 139 yards in his past two games since returning from injury. He is also 29th in the NFL with a 61 percent completion rating. The Vikings Defense had their best game of the season last week with four sacks and six takeaways.

Honorable mention: Jason Campbell (Redskins) vs. Giants

Runningbacks

Start

Ricky Williams (Dolphins) vs. Rams

The Rams are 30th in the league in rushing yards allowed which should result in a busy day for the Dolphins backfield. Williams has 31 carries the past three weeks with a rushing and receiving TD.

Warrick Dunn (Bucs) vs. Saints

Dunn totaled 127 yards and a rushing TD against the Lions last week. He makes a strong start in PPR leagues with his nine catches over the past two games. The Saints are 18th in the league in rushing yards allowed.

Honorable mention: Leon Washington (Jets)

Sit

Jamal Lewis (Browns)

Lewis has rushed for under 65 yards and just one TD in his past four games. He is averaging 3.7 yards per carry and has only 17 receptions on the season.

Kevin Faulk (Pats) vs. Steelers

Faulk posted 105 total yards and a rushing TD last week against the Dolphins last week. However, the Steelers are 1st in the NFL in rushing and passing yards allowed and look for them to shut down the versatile running back.

Honorable mention: Willie Parker (Steelers) vs. Pats

Wide Receivers

Start

Lance Moore (Saints) vs. Bucs

Moore has a caught a TD in four straight games and has 25 receptions in that span. He is 11th in the league with 57 catches and is tied for fourth with seven receiving touchdowns. The Bucs are 2nd in the league against the pass but Moore is too hot to be benched.

Ted Ginn Jr. (Dolphins) vs. Rams

Ginn has 13 catches the past three weeks and posted 88 yards on the Pats last week. The Rams are 21st in passing yards allowed and with WR Greg Camarillo out for the season look for Ginn to be targeted more by QB Chad Pennington.

Honorable mention: Vincent Jackson (Chargers) vs. Falcons

Sit

Donald Driver (Packers) vs. Panthers

Driver has finished with 68 yards in six of his past seven games. In that span he has had four weeks with four catches or fewer. He is on pace to finish with less than 1,000 yards for the first time since 2003.

Roy Williams (Cowboys) vs. Seahawks

Williams has nine catches his past four games for just 110 yards. With T.O breaking out for 213 yards last week look for QB Tony Romo to continue to throw his way.

Honorable mention: Torry Holt (Rams) vs. Dolphins

Tight End

Start

Bo Scaife (Titans) vs. Lions

Scaife has 24 receptions in his past five games and is in the top six amongst TE’s in receptions and yards. The Lions are 19th in league guarding the pass whoch means Scaife should find some open seems. The Lions also have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to tight ends.

Honorable mention: Kevin Boss (Giants) vs. Redskins

Sit

L.J Smith (Eagles) vs. Cardinals- Smith has eight catches in his past three games for 54 yards. He is having a disappointing season and is too inconsistent to start.

Honorable mention: Owen Daniels (Texans) vs. Jags

Kicker

Start

Rian Lindell (Bills) vs. 49ers

Lindell scored 18 points last week and now is second in the league with 28 field goal attempts. The 49ers are 29th in the league with 310 points allowed.

Honorable mention: Ryan Longwell (Vikings) vs. Bears

Sit

Robbie Gould (Bears) vs. Vikings

Gould has attempted just six field goals in his past four games and has just one double digit scoring game in the past six weeks. The Bears face a stingy defense this week so his opportunities could be limited

Honorable mention: Jeff Reed (Steelers) vs. Pats

Defense/Special Teams

Start

Dolphins vs. Rams

The Dolphins have 10 sacks the past three weeks and should feast on a depleted Rams offense. The Rams are averaging just 256 yards of total offense per game and are converting less than 30% of their third down conversions. Also starting QB Marc Bulger and RB Steven Jackson could be out this week.

Honorable mention: Cowboys vs. Seahawks

Sit

Panthers vs. Packers

The Panthers allowed 45 points and 392 yards last week to the Falcons. QB Aaron Rodgers should bounce back and have a solid game at home.

Honorable mention: Jags vs. Texans
