Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jacobs @ Packers - Hopefully, you watched the Giants play against the Falcons on Sunday, because Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs put together one of the better games, I've seen from them in years. When this duo is at its best, you can see them feeding off the others play, running tough and fighting for every last yard. This was the type of effort that has NFL experts talking about ...

Another playoff fantasy football challenge is upon us as drafts are going on throughout this week, in preparation for the beginning of the post season on Saturday. While I put together player rankings for each position to get you set for the wild-card round, I've gone ahead and put together a cheat sheet for all players in the entire playoffs. While many of you will likely play on ESPN, NFL.com or other maj ...

Steve Smith vs. Falcons - The Falcons did a respectable job against Steve Smith week six as he posted a mire five receptions for 66 yards, but things could be different this time. Atlanta has struggled against the vertical passing game for most of the year, and with corner back Brent Grimes sidelined for at least a few weeks, Smith will have opportunities. Even a gimpy Andre Johnson hooked up with third-str ...

Chris Johnson vs. Saints - Hopefully, you showed patience in Chris Johnson and didn't trade him away earlier in the season, because he's clearly back to being the player we remembered from years ago. Many of you that drafted Johnson have likely had a hard road to the playoffs, but if you've survived this long, you're in position to do some damage. With Johnson showing his old burst in the secondary and the ...

Marshawn Lynch vs. Eagles - After a horrible first half of the season, Marshawn Lynch has been great over the past month. In three of his past four games, Lynch has eclipsed the 100 yard mark three times, and has a touchdown score in every game. With Tarvaris Jackson playing threw a partially torn pectoral muscle the Seahawks have had to lean on Lynch as their go to option on offense, and he's helped them s ...

Roy Helu vs. Jets - I'm going to go out on a limb and say I believe Mike Shanahan when he says that Roy Helu is the teams' starting tailback, "for sure" after his break out performance against the Seahawks. Going back and watching the film, it's easy to see why Shanahan seems to feel that Helu is ready to be the teams' starter, as he consistently showed a good pad level, with a lung at the point of attack, ...

LeGarrette Blount vs. Panthers - It took a couple of games for LeGarrette Blount to return to form after returning from a knee injury, but this big running back has been a stud of late. Two weeks ago we saw Blount rip off one of the more impressive touchdown of the season across the NFL, and last week he busted out one of his trademark hurdles over corner back Jason McCourty on his way to a 35-yard receptio ...

Steve Johnson @ Dolphins - After a hot start to the season, Steve Johnson just hasn't been the same player since week three as the Bills have relied more on the feet of Fred Jackson to win games. Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick finally hooked up with Johnson on a deep route against the Jets a few weeks ago, but a case of the flue and a shoulder injury, limited Johnson to an ineffective stat-line, in the teams' ...

Brandon Jacobs vs. Eagles - Tom Coughlin continues to have a wait and see approach to Ahmad Brashaw's bum foot, and as long as the shifty play maker is out of the lineup, power back Brandon Jacobs should be in PPR fantasy lineups. Jacobs may not catch many receptions, but he will be the main runner in the offense and will likely carry a majority of the load, even if Bradshaw is available this week. Coming o ...

Laurent Robinson @ Redskins - In case, you were a non-believer in Laurent Robinson's abilities to produce, he showed up again with two touchdowns against the Bills this week. Robinson has played like fantasy starter since his first opportunity to play against the Redskins during the teams' week three game on Monday night football. Audio: Laurent Robinson A Weekly Starter Going Forward It's likely that Miles ...
