Photo By: Troy Taormina / US PRESSWIRE Fantasy owners with Andre Johnson were waiting for an explosive game from the veteran and they finally got it against the Jaguars. Johnson put the game away with a 48-yard touchdown to seal the game in over time helping him finish with 14 receptions for 273 yards and the big score. With top corner back Jonathan Joseph questionable for this week, the Lions will have res ...

Photo By: Cary Edmondson / US PRESSWIRE So much for Vernon Davis struggling without Alex Smith. Second-year quarterback Colin Kaepernick was terrific in his first start of his career on Monday night, and Davis was clearly featured in the offense. What has been another up and down season for Davis in terms of his stats, should turn into two solid performances in a row as San Francisco heads out to New Orlean ...

Photo By: Raj Mehta / US PRESSWIRE What the heck does one make of Matthew Stafford's season and what to expect from him this week on Thanksgiving? After positive performances against the Seahawks and Jaguars it appears Stafford was on track for a strong second half. Unfortunately, we watched Stafford regress on Sunday as he took a beating and even looked to have a bad back injury at one point in the game. O ...

Photo By: Ron Chenoy / US PRESSWIRE Any defense matched up against the Chiefs is a good fantasy start going forward. When you combine Kansas City's anemic offense matched up against a Broncos defense that is ranked 12th against the pass, 6th against the run, with 35 sacks and 14 interceptions, you have one of the better matchups for week 12. With Peyton Manning in town, Denver's defense is enjoying the luxu ...

Photo By: Derick E. Hingle / US PRESSWIRE As the Falcons enjoy one of their better seasons in franchise history, veteran kicker Matt Bryant is prospering with what looks to be a career year. Bryant has been one of the better kickers for fantasy football and his consistency from week to week makes him one of the more reliable options at his position. Through ten games Bryant has converted 25 of his 28 opport ...

Photo By: Derick E. Hingle / US PRESSWIRE One thing we can count on in New Orleans is a running game clustered with multiple tailbacks coming in and out of the lineup. With Joe Vitt back from his suspension, leading the charge as the Saints head coach there are some things have changed that we need to take note of. For one, Vitt is open about wanting to run the football more, using ball control to take pres ...

Photo By: Robert Mayer / US PRESSWIRE Ugly, is the word that comes to my mind when looking over this weeks list of running backs after the first thirteen options. Inconsistency, injury and the near death of the bell cow back are reason to blame for the weak list of running backs we have to choose from in the game today. One running back I look to that should have a big week, based on the team he's matched u ...

Photo By: Denny Medley / US PRESSWIRE The Raiders have struggled to run the football all year forcing Carson Palmer and the passing game to play well in order to remain competitive. With the way their defense has played of late and the Saints coming to town, you can bet Palmer is in for a day of possibly over 50 passing attempts and that means big things for Denarius Moore. Moore struggled with hamstring pr ...

Photo By: Jeremy Brevard / US PRESSWIRE It looked like Greg Olsen was off to a career year after the first four games of the season in which he collected at least six receptions in three of those games. As Cam Newton regressed so did the rest of the Panthers offense and all too often the game plan seemed to get away from their talented tight end. In recent weeks Olsen's numbers have come back to life and la ...

Photo By: Jeremy Brevard / US PRESSWIRE While Peyton Manning threw for over 300 yards last week, I'm concerned about his ability to put up big numbers with regularity in the future. At this point in time, Manning is likely one of the top six scoring quarterbacks on the season in many fantasy leagues. And yet, if the defense and special teams continue to play like they've done in the past three and a half we ...
