Denver Broncos (8-3) at Kansas City Chiefs (7-4) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Notable: Peyton Manning- #2 Ranked QB C.J. Anderson– #5 Ranked C.J. Anderson was the 3rd highest scoring RB last week and had his best game yet rushing for over 167 yards and scored a TD. He also had a beastly 27 carries. He has been killing it the past 3 games rushing for 473 yards. The good news is that the Chiefs have softened up on defense a bit recently so Anderson should have another big outing. Demaryius Thomas– #4 Ranked WR Demaryius Thomas is the highest scoring receiver in the league and was the highest scoring receiver last week. He averages 15.5 points and is probably your main man on your roster. Emmanuel Sanders– #10 Ranked WR Sanders is the 4th highest scoring receiver in the league thus far this year. Sanders is one of those players that is awesome in the slot and also has the speed for the big plays. He is a must start and probably your best bang for your buck on your team this year. Gut Calls Notable: Denver Broncos Defense- #13 Ranked DEF Julius Thomas– #6 Ranked TE Thomas is listed as day to day and will definitely be a game time call. He didn’t practice last week and while he technically warmed up during the open to the public portion of the practice, he did not actually participate. It doesn’t seem to promising. The bigger issue is that he is the Sunday Night game…and there are 3 games on...

Denver Broncos (7-3) vs Miami Dolphins (6-4) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Notable: Peyton Manning- #4 Ranked QB and Demaryius Thomas- #2 Ranked WR C.J. Anderson– #12 Ranked RB So there was definitely concern that Montee Ball was going to come back and snatch up a bunch of touches. Well Ball is out with a groin injury, Hillman is still out as well which makes C.J. Anderson the man in town. He will get the rock and he will get the rock a lot. He is used a lot in the air as well so this hybrid player should do you well this week. Emmanuel Sanders– #20 Ranked WR Sanders did not practice on Wednesday as he still has to go through the NFL’s concussion protocol to be cleared to play this week. If he does get cleared, than you are obviously starting him, if not Demaryius will benefit the most from his absence. Andre Caldwell will get to see some increased field time as well if Sanders sits out. (UPDATE: Sanders is probable and is a must start) Gut Calls Julius Thomas– #4 Ranked TE The Broncos sustained a lot of injuries last game and Julius Thomas was a big one of those. His ankle was held out of practice on Wednesday so make sure that you keep a very close eye on your actives and inactives lists on Sunday morning. If Thomas is out, Jacob Tamme will then become Peyton Mannings tight end target. There is a comfort level there so you can feel about about playing him if you really,...

Miami Dolphins (6-4) at Denver Broncos (7-3) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Lamar Miller– #20 Ranked RB Last week was okay. Nothing special but not something to get all rage faced about either. He scored you 9 points and all of that was yardage which is encouraging in regard to his injury not bothering him. The Buffalo Defense is good and next up this week is the Denver Broncos defense who aren’t too shabby. With that said, he is still a play for this week. More than likely he will find the end zone this week which will get him and you back on track. Gut Calls Mike Wallace– #25 Ranked I can understand if you are a bit gun shy at the moment with Mike Wallace. His production has slowed down in the last 4 games. But keep in mind that last week, when he only scored you 3 points, he was paying a very, very, very tough Buffalo defense and the Dolphins were playing gingerly with that in mind. My bigger concern is that Wallace’s calf did not practice on Wednesday. Keep you eye on him with the injury report before you make any sort of decision. Bench Warmers Miami Dolphins Defense– #15 Ranked DEF Yes, the Broncos looked really, really bad last week but don’t think for one second that that didn’t piss Peyton Manning off to the point where he will be coming out this week guns a blazing. This game is also in Denver which won’t help the Dolphins out any with the rage and...

We partnered with RotoBaller to give you accurate and timely Week 12 waiver wire adds, running backs and more. In turn, they post our podcast to their site (which is centered around setting your weekly lineups). Enjoy! This article originally appeared on RotoBaller, our new partner. We are now heading into Week 12 of the fantasy football season, and many of you know what that means. That’s right, if you play in a league with playoff byes you’re only about two weeks away from playoff time. Many of you are also either past your trade deadline or it’s coming up at the end of this week. The list of methods you can use to find capable running backs is shortening very quickly. Let me (Bobby Koch)help you find some viable running backs or sleepers on the Week 12 waiver wire that you might be able to use for that playoff push. Good luck hitting the waiver wire this week RotoBallers. Fantasy Football Running Backs (RB) – Week 12 Jonas Gray (RB, NE) – 14% owned on Fleaflicker Has there ever been a bigger “duh” as far as fantasy football waiver wire pickups go? I’m pretty sure Jonas Gray will be the #1 waiver wire add across the entire fantasy football nation after posting up an otherworldly 199 yards and 4 TDs in Sunday nights trouncing of the Colts. Perhaps most impressive though is that he received 38 carries from Bill Belichick. Gray is without a doubt the “feature back” in the New England offense, and after running with purpose and patience all game vs. the Colts, he should be looked at as a...
