Like all rookie QBs, Matt Leinart was bound to struggle at some point. Still, I expected bigger numbers against matchups such as Green Bay. He’s a QB2 at best. After a performance that saw him get 4.5 YPA Sunday, that Chicago game feels like it was months ago.
I’m a huge Maurice Jones-Drew fan. The draft pundits missed the boat on this kid, letting him fall way too far. He simply never goes down on first contact. Once Fred Taylor gets injured, Jones-Drew is going to have top-10 RB value.
Speaking of Jacksonville, the team is the biggest enigma in the league right now. Even Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde blushes when watching the Jaguars play. I’m not sure if they’d rather face Houston or Chicago at this point, but I am sure I’ll never bet on or against this rollercoaster of a team.
Don’t jump, Tatum Bell owners. The Colts may go undefeated while having the worst run defense in the NFL.
The most underrated fantasy quarterback so far has to be Drew Brees. Don’t jump, Nick Saban.
Unless you’re in a PPR league, Reggie Bush really isn’t that great of an option.
Tony Romo makes Dallas an interesting and potentially dangerous team moving forward.
With the schedule setting up nicely, Alex Smith and Antonio Bryant could be fantasy factors down the stretch.
There’s something clearly not right with Ben Roethlisberger’s melon.
Tell me the Raiders didn’t just beat the defending Super Bowl champions while completing five passes on the day. Five!
The New York Giants are legitimate NFC contenders.
If Michael Vick continues to look downfield while scrambling, he might just turn into a great NFL quarterback after all. Seriously.
Are we entirely sure that Art Shell is even alive?
If Donovan McNabb’s owner in your league has a short-term memory, go make an offer right now.
Sorry Bucs fans, Bruce Gradkowski is not the answer. At least this year anyway.
What happened to Travis Henry this weekend?
It’s past time to start giving Damon Huard some credit. He’s not just winning games, but a completion percentage of 65, along with 7.8 YPA and an 8/1 TD/INT ratio are legit numbers.
It’s hard to fathom Tiki Barber having scored zero touchdowns on the year.
Will someone get Randy Moss some stick’um, please.
Has anyone filed a missing person’s report on LaMont Jordan’s behalf?
Lost in Ahman Green’s resurgence was Vernand Morency’s impressive day. With Green being one of the more likely backs to break down over the second half of the season, Morency should be owned in every league at this point.
If you’re a Larry Johnson or LaDainian Tomlinson owner, congratulations – you’ve won the fantasy football lottery, akin to owning Google stock.
Hope you didn’t miss Joseph Addai’s coming out party Sunday. If you know an owner who did, go get him. For all Addai owners out there, you’re sitting on a gold mine – trust me.
