Washington Redskins at Dallas Cowboys

Update: It looks like Miles Austin will play.  We don’t think that changes anything, really, but we thought you should know.  This should be a high fantasy scoring fan.  Enjoy.  Play without reservations.

This week, we made some gut calls on Tony Romo, DeMarco Murray, Dez Bryant, Terrence Williams and Dallas Defense.

And example of what we think:

Tony Romo
#2 Ranked QB
Does Romo have a history of choking at inopportune times? Yes. Yes, he does. But if you are playing fantasy football, you need to block that out and admit that this guy is a must start. He may not kiss his bicep. He may not discount double-check. He may not hawk pizzas, but the guy will get you points. He’s playing one of the easiest defenses in the league, in a division game, and he will win your fantasy matchup for you. Let the media talking heads question him all they want. You, my friend, will play him with no reservations.

Detroit Lions at Cleveland Browns

The Browns are having the resurgence of the decade, but the Lions are an offensive machine (if they have Megatron).  There’s a lot in the air regarding this game, so make sure to check the injury report Sunday morning, but feel fabulous about Cameron and Gordon.  Put a smile on your face.

This week, we made some gut calls on Jordan Cameron, Josh Gordon, Browns Defense, Brandon Weeden and the Running Backs.

Here’s something to talk about:

Browns Defense
#14 Ranked DEF
The Browns defense is legit. So legit in fact, that they have quietly scored the 3rd most fantasy points amongst defenses. We don’t think most people saw that coming. Their lowest scoring week, thus far, has garnered you 7 points. Trust us people, that is not a number to be angry with. This week they will suit up against the Lions who have given up the 7th fewest points to defenses, so expect single digit numbers this week (unless Megatron doesn’t play, in which case, you have a bit more of an upside).

Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers

Remember at the beginning of the season when everyone thought the 49ers were the best team in the NFL?  Hm.  Now people are wondering if this will be a close game.  The Arizona Defense continues to improve and you can’t really say the same this about the 49ers offense.  Time will tell.

This week, we made some gut calls on Larry Fitzgerald, the Arizona Defense, Carson Palmer, Rashard Mendenhall and Andre Ellington.

Some of our thoughts:

Carson Palmer
#28 Ranked QB
This nice fellow needs to be dropped from your roster. Averaging fewer than 10 points per game, you have better fantasy options. Brandon Weeden, Andy Dalton, Joe Flacco and even Eli Manning are averaging more points per game. We don’t blame Palmer for the lack of a number 2WR or any TE at all. That is a team management issue. But facts are facts. Happy trails to you.

New York Giants at Chicago Bears

Our tagline for this game: “There will be blood.”  This game could get ugly, fast.  But we have our money on this also being a fantasy gold mine for the Bears players and your fantasy team.

This week, we made some gut calls on Matt Forte, Brandon Marshall, the Chicago Defense, Alshon Jeffery, Jay Cutler and even Robbie Gould.

One of our calls:

Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em

Brandon Marshall

#3 Ranked WR

Giants give up the 9^th most fantasy points to WRs.  Brandon Marshall had a tough game last week with only 30 yards receiving. Luckily for fantasy owners, he did also get a TD. Jay Cutler isn’t going to let him feel bad for two weeks in a row. Look for Marshall to pick apart a Giants secondary that MUST also defend the emerging Alshon Jeffery. We smell a bounce back.
