Indianapolis Colts (5-2) at Pittsburgh Steelers (4-3) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Antonio Brown – #3 Ranked WR Antonio Brown is the man and by now you should know that you always, and I mean always play him. He is the kind of guy in which you don’t bother looking at match-ups. He has yet to have a game with less than 84 yards and his lowest scoring game still garnered you 8 points. He’s the man. Pure and simple…he’s the man. Le’Veon Bell– #5 Ranked RB Bell is averaging 14 points per game and is the 4th highest scoring RB in the league right now. He has only gotten you single digit points once, and that was in week 2. He is consistent and is a threat in both the air and on the ground. This is his most endearing quality because it means that if you are up against a stout line, you don’t have to panic…he will still get you your usual points. Gut Calls Lance Moore – Not Ranked WR If you have been playing fantasy football for a while then you know that Lance Moore can be a very frustrating player as he is hot and cold. Well he was hot and cold with the Saints and he hasn’t seen much action with the Steelers either. Last week he had his most catches, 2, but he has scored touchdowns in the last 2 games. Big Ben has been looking his way in the end zone as of recently and defenses know they need to double team Brown, leaving...

Every week we go match up by match up and tell you who your must starts, gut calls and bench players are for the game. We can’t cover every player but we should be able to answer those burning questions as to whether or not this is a good match up for one of your questionable players. Let the fun begin. (Garageband had an error so the reverb and echo are out of control and it won’t let us adjust it. Sorry!)...

Pittsburgh Steelers (3-3) vs Houston Texans (3-3) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Antonio Brown – #3 Ranked WR Like clock work he threw down another 118 yards on 7 catches. Throw this guy the ball in the end zone so that he can have 20 point games more often. The lowest scoring game he has had has been 8 points. Le’Veon Bell – #6 Ranked Steady does it. The last four weeks he has had 15, 10, 11 and 10 points. He had 18 touches for 82 yards so another awesome week. Gut Calls None Bench Warmers Everyone...

Houston Texans (3-3) at Pittsburgh Steelers (3-3) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Arian Foster – #3 Ranked RB I don’t get sick of talking about Arian Foster and the Texans don’t get sick of handing him the ball as much as they possibly can. That is fine with us. The don’t seem to be concerned with working him too hard so put that thought out of your head. He had 20 touches for 109 yards and scored 2 touchdowns. Yes please! I would like a second helping of that against the Steelers if you please. Andre Johnson – #23 Ranked WR The moment I talk complete and utter trash about you, you will play well. It is the rule and Andre Johnson exhibited this last week. He had 99 yards and a touchdown last week which tells me that he is healthy enough to keep in your lineup. This was his first touchdown of the season so let’s hope that he can repeat again this week. DeAndre Hopkins – #21 Ranked WR Hopkins went missing last week. Literally missing only catching 1 ball. I don’t think he will have a repeat performance like that this week. The Steelers secondary is actually pretty decent so Fitzpatrick will have to spread the ball around a bit. Gut Calls Texans Defense – #8 Ranked DEF The Texans Defense and J.J. Watt in particular is too good for me to put on the bench even if the Steelers do give up the 8th fewest points to defenses. I know that seems shocking if you have watched...

by Ashley Williams | Oct 12, 2014 | Cleveland Browns, Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers (3-2) at Cleveland Browns (2-2) Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em Le’Veon Bell In comparison to some other RBs last week Bell wasn’t super impressive but you can’t complain about 11 points and all of that without a touchdown! The Browns have been giving up around 140 rushing yards to opposing running backs so Bell should have a nice little week especially if he is able to find the end zone. Antonio Brown This was the first week that Brown did not score you double digit points. Don’t expect that this week as the Browns give up the 8th most points to WRs. If you need some extra encouragement (and you shouldn’t as he is the top receiver in the league) he has either scored a touchdown or had at least 87 yards in every match up against the Browns in his career. He likes to play the Browns so expect big things from him. Gut Calls Health Miller I want to start by saying that I believe that you have better options than Health Miller but he has been averaging almost 60 yards within the last 3 games and almost caught another touchdown last week which would have put him in double digits. He only scored 2 points in week 1 against the Browns but hopefully they have a bit more groove in week 6 to improve upon his paltry score. Bench Warmers Ben Roethlisberger Roethlisberger didn’t have an awful game last week but it was also nothing fantastic. The Steelers in general need a pick me up and this divisional rivalry...
