NFL Week 14 Fantasy Fill-ins

Putting the final piece of your fantasy football puzzle together

I’ve uncovered some guys you can plug in to your lineup if you are dealing with an injury or tough matchups.   Check back following the games to see the stat line of guys profiled.

QB
Matt Cassel: Cassel let a lot of teams down last week against the Steelers, but if you have the moxie to stick with him this week against Seattle, you should reap the rewards. 
Stat Line: 

RB
Pierre Thomas: Well, you know Deuce is out of the picture thanks to his water pills.  Bush is back, but I see Thomas getting a good share of the work, especially at the stripe. 
Stat Line: 

Kevin Smith: Speaking of water pills, Kevin Smith should have more room to run due to the suspension of the Williams Wall (Pat & Kevin).  As long as the hapless Lions don’t get down too early taking away the Lions’ ground game, Smith should have a solid showing.
Stat Line:

WR
Bernard Berrian: He has been hit-or-miss for the Vikings, but I do like his chances against the stinkin’ Lions. 
Stat Line: 

Anthony Gonzalez: Gonzalez had an off-week against Cleveland with two catches for 13 yards.  He darn well better do better than that against Cincinnati.
Stat Line: 

TE
Owen Daniels: One of my usual suspects for opposing Tight Ends, San Diego, played Thursday and the other, Minnesota, figured out they are better off using a DB to cover TEs.  Daniels has averaged just 20 yards a game the last four weeks since Matt Schaub went down.  He should be back, and so should Daniels’ fantasy relevance.
Stat Line:   

K
Jay Feely: Despite allowing just a FG to Lindell last week, San Fran has still allowed the most Kicker points.  Had Lindell not uncharacteristically missed two FGs, we’d be talking about another three-FG game allowed.  So I’m picking on San Fran yet again.
Stat Line: 

DEF
Arizona: The last time they played the Cardinals had two Sacks and forced three turnovers.  They even took an INT to the house.  This time they are playing in Arizona.  I fully expect another multi-sack/multi-turnover game.
Stat Line:
