@ Chuck,
Thanks, Chuck. Marshawn looked like a beast last night and DeSean looked like a baby.

Marshawn Lynch and Desean Jackson,,,, you guys got those two right! Two players going in much different directions.

@ Jeff,
White started off slowly but he is the type of player you have to stick in your starting line up if Ryan is healthy.

@ Jon,
Lewis has been garbage but he’s heating up at just the right time. As for Spiller, two preseasons and 27 games into his NFL career, he has shown nothing so I can’t say I agree it was the Jets that shut him down – he has been shut down by every team.

I can think of 25 TEs I would rather have over Lewis.

I’m not gonna write off Spiller yet. The guy has a lot of talent, and it was his first start against a Jets that have been playing excellent run defense since week 6. They have allowed -52.9% against RBs in the last 5 weeks (thanks fftoday Strength of Schedule). I’ll give it a couple more starts to see what he can do.

Had White on my bench this week because of his matchup and the fact that he has been so inconsistent. That type of stellar decision making would lead on to believe I am having a bad fantasy year….and they would be right! He is starting for me this week – which means he probably lays an egg!

I don’t see how M.Lewis is moving up. He dropped another TD pass again last Sunday and is the most overpaid TE in the league. He has dropped way too many balls already. Also I think you might have meant to say Palko is moving down not up.

@ Rick,
I’m guessing his owners were figuring he would return as a solid WR1 but that isn’t happening with the QB situation in Houston.

@ Alvin,
Bang on. The argument could be made that he’s not a sure fire starter in leagues that start two WRs.

@ Samara,
Kubiak will definitely change the play calling somewhat but the QB needs to have the confidence to complete the throw that is called. Does Yates have that?

@ Phil,
At a certain point in the season, if it walks like a dog and barks like a dog, then it’s a dog.

@ Samara,
Finley is averaging 5.3 PPG over his last eight. Celek is averaging 8.4 over his last six. Just the numbers, baby.

totally agree about SJax moving down…..in addition to the analysis, what wasn’t mentioned was his upcoming schedule….2 games vs the 49ers, away against Pittsburgh, and games vs Cincy and Seattle…..a brutal stretch!!!…..if Arizona was able to shut him down, imagine what these teams will do…….sell now
