Fantasy Football Week 7: Joe Flacco and 3 Stars Who Will Not Shine in Prime Time

Joe Flacco is a big risk to score big against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday Night Football. The Jaguars have been solid on defense most of the season. The Jags are ranked eighth against the pass this year and Flacco hasn't thrown a TD pass since Week 3.

He did go for 300 yards last week, but the Ravens have obviously decided to ride the run game and rightfully so. To compound things, the Ravens receiving corps is still in disarray with various injuries.

Flacco is not a good play this week, too much uncertainty. 

On the other sideline in the Monday Night matchup, Maurice Jones-Drew is going to be running into the teeth of one of the toughest defenses in the league. 

Running backs are rarely a smart play against Baltimore. Week 7's prime time game should be no exception. The leading rusher for the last three teams the Ravens have faced have tallied 23, 45 and 75 yards against the Ravens defense.

Last week, in particular was very impressive as Haloti Ngata and company limited Arian Foster to 49 yards on the ground. MJD is great, but not this week.

The other prime time star who isn't going to produce this weekend is Reggie Wayne. He is almost all the Colts have, so expect the Saints to lock in on him.

Also, from a game plan stand point, the Colts will need to run the ball to have a shot at a win. I don't see Curtis Painter putting it up a lot in this one, if he does, I expect Pierre Garcon to benefit more than the future Hall of Famer Wayne.
