| QBs |
|
| Drew Bledsoe |
To put it nicely the Texans defense is horrible, allowing
113 points in just 4 games. They are allowing 295.3 yards and 2 TDs
passing per game and have only 1 INT to their credit. Drew gets healthy
here. |
| Rex Grossman |
The Cardinals were picked apart last week by Damon Huard to the
tune of 288 yards and 2 TDs. This is a great opportunity for Grossman
to pad the stats. |
| David Carr |
We expect the Texans defense to put the offense in a hole early,
forcing Carr to throw all day long. That's bad news for the Texans
team, but good news for Carr owners. |
| |
|
| RBs |
|
Tatum Bell |
Bell was able to peel off 92 yards last week against a tough Ravens
defense and this week gets to play the Raiders who are allowing 150.3
yards rushing per game (29th). Look for Bell to get plenty of looks. |
Thomas Jones |
Jones lost the carries near the goal line last week, but still eclipsed
the 100 yard mark. Look for him to find the end zone this week and
total 125+ all purpose yards. |
Cadillac Williams |
Through 4 games the Bengals are allowing 144 yards rushing per game
and have given up 7 rushing TDs. They miss Odell Thurman in the middle
of this defense and the passing game looks better with Simms out of
the lineup. |
| |
|
| WRs |
|
| Andre Johnson |
Johnson will be the main benefactor of all Carr's throwing this
week and looks to continue the impressive play, piling up 20 catches
for 253 yards and 1 TD over the past two games. |
| T.J. Houshmandzadeh |
The Bucs defense is stilll reeling. The Saints ran the ball up and
down the field on the Bucs last week, but the Bengals are more balanced
so look for T.J. to be near 100 yards receiving and a TD. |
| Lee Evans |
The Lions are not much better than the Texans on defense, allowing
265.8 yards passing per contest. Evans was able to pull in 9 receptions
for 94 yards and 1 TD last week against the Bears so this week should
only be better. |
| |
|
| TEs |
|
| L.J. Smith |
The Eagles passing game is clicking on all cylinders right now so
keep riding the wave. |
| Desmond Clark |
This is strictly a hunch. He's due to find the end zone again. |

Bench
'Em |
| QBs |
|
| Matt Leinart |
The rookie hasn't seen a defense like this. The pressure
will be too much for him to handle. |
| Steve McNair |
The Panthers defense has been coming on while McNair has been struggling
and hit bottom on Monday night with only 165 yards passing and 3 INTs. |
| Alex Smith |
Smith bounced back last week against the Raiders and has gotten
most of his points in the second half when the team was forced to
throw. He laid an egg against the Bears two weeks ago and we expect
a similar performance against a tough Chargers D this week. |
| |
|
| RBs |
|
| DeShaun Foster |
The Ravens defense is just too tough, especially at home. We don't
see Foster finding any room to run against a defense allowing just
74 yards per game and only 1 rushing TD through the first 5 games. |
| Frank Gore |
Like the Ravens, the Chargers have only given up 1 rushing TD and
had little trouble holding the Steelers to just 68 yards rushing last
week, just higher than their 66.5 yards rushing allowed for the season. |
| Edgerrin James |
James has been having a very difficult time all season trying to
find running room and going against the best defense in the league
is not going to help his cause. |
| |
|
| WRs |
|
| Randy Moss |
Moss has been crying non-stop the last two weeks and is obviously
not interested in winning football games these days. He has TDs in
the last two games, but Champ will not let him make it three. |
| Antonio Bryant |
The early season magic is over as opposing teams are now focusing
on stopping Bryant. He has only 82 yards receiving in his last 3 games.
That's not going to get it done. |
| Derrick Mason |
Mason's numbers are a result of McNair's poor play. Mason was stifled
last week by Champ Bailey and the Panthers defense will keep a close
eye on him again this weekend. |
| |
|
| TEs |
|
| Tennessee TE |
It appears Norm Chow has removed from the TE from the play book. |
| Jeremy Shockey |
The Giants TE is battling a sore foot and the Falcons haven't allowed
a passing TD. |
