Oakland Raiders 3-5 at New York Giants 2-6
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
Victor Cruz
#13 Ranked WR
Before the bye, at Philadelphia, Cruz caught 7 passes for 86 yards. We once believed that Victor’s talent knew no bounds, but now we know that Eli Manning and their terrible offensive line can and will bring a good man down.
Gut Calls
Andre Brown
#28 Ranked RB
They love him and supposedly he will play this week. He broke his leg in the preseason, and that’s a little scary. Legs are pretty important. The Giants said they plan on “easing him in.” We believe that, but that’s okay because he’s the guy they will use in the red zone. He doesn’t need a lot of touches to score a lot of fantasy points in the end zone.
Peyton Hillis
#38 Ranked RB
You may not need him this week, but there’s a serious possibility that he remains the featured back in New York. Andre Brown is back, but while they ease him in they will need a bruiser to get the ball down the field. Listen, his stats weren’t great last week. He rushed for 70 yards and caught 3 passes for 15 yards. But if you’re in a bad place with your RBs, he’s worth a bench stash, and a possible play.

Eli Manning
#25 Ranked QB
Damn. He’s terrible. He averages 12.06 fantasy points per game. That’s 37th out of all QBs this season. Abysmal.
