Eric Decker @ Chiefs - While Tim Tebow continues to have his ups and downs, Eric Decker has found the end zone each of the past two weeks and should be a respectable flex option in deeper leagues. The Broncos will continue to throw the football as they will likely win games close or as was the case against the Lions, they will be playing from way behind and need to throw the ball. Don't expect great numbers ...

Reggie Bush vs Redskins - Like him or not, it appears Reggie Bush has not only earned the starting job in Miami, but he's clearly earned a starting spot in fantasy lineups going forward. While rookie Daniel Thomas continues to battle hamstring problems, Bush has put together two of his better performances of his career, leaving me to wonder why the coaches were so quick to give Thomas the football, week two ...

Superstar running back Darren McFadden is out this week, leaving backups Michael Bush and rookie Taiwan Jones to carry the load for the Raiders against a team they've thrived against in recent years in the Denver Broncos. While Bush should be viewed as high as a RB-1 play this week, don't be surprised if Jones makes a few big plays, against a Broncos defense that is susceptible to cut back, speedsters. With ...

Roy Helu vs 49ers - I have Roy Helu listed as a bench option this week against the 49ers, but if your desperate for a flex play option give him a shot. The Redskins are likely to play from behind this week, and while Helu wasn't running the football, he consistently the go to running back in the passing game. Washington has already announced that Tashard Choice won't suit up this week, and I have a feeling ...

Mike Tolbert vs Packers - The Chargers have done a good job in the running game this year, and while Mike Tolbert was out last week, he's projected back against the Packers and might receive significant work if Ryan Mathews is out. Mathews suffered a groin injury late Monday night and even third string running back Curtis Brinkley suffered a concussion at the end of the game. The Packers have struggled agai ...

Michael Bush vs Broncos - As of Monday, Darren McFadden missed the teams first practice of the week coming of the bye week as he recovers from an leg injury that knocked him out of action against the Chiefs. Fantasy owners will McFadden and Michael Bush need to monitor his progress throughout the week as the star running back may not play in a terrific matchup against the Broncos. If McFadden is out, Bush w ...

Beanie Wells vs Rams - It's a case of good news, bad news for Beanie Wells owners as their running back played against the Ravens and produced a touchdown, but clearly looked slowed down by his knee injury. Wells even went as far as to acknowledge after the game that his knee could be a problem for the remainder of the season. While Wells has clearly lost some of the sparkle from his early-season success, h ...

Darren McFadden got off to a hot start this year but after his big game against the Jets, he's failed to play like one of the true elite running backs in fantasy, and then an ankle injury derailed him last week against the Chiefs. McFadden has all the tools to be a future top selection on draft day, but if his health problems continue to be an issue, fantasy owners will have to knock him for it. Audio: Week ...

Brandon Lloyd @ Cowboys - It's a case of good news, bad news for Brandon Lloyd as the Rams traded for him on Monday. The good news is that he reunites with his old Head Coach Josh McDaniels and will play in the offensive system that gave him so much success a year ago. The bad news, is that quarterback Sam Bradford has a high ankle sprain and even if Bradford plays this week, he won't have much time to work ...

Fred Jackson @ Giants - When things are going your way, they can really go your way as Fred Jackson's career year, as the Bills head out to face a Giants defense that gave up three touchdowns to Beanie Wells week four and close to one hundred yards and a score to Marshawn Lynch, last week. If those running backs can torch this group, what will arguably the best fantasy back of 2011 to do them? Jackson made ...
