1. New York Jets - Matt Stafford has a tendency to hold onto the ball too long. The Jets will expose this flaw and force multiple turnovers. They’re the top ranked fantasy football D/ST in Week 9.
2. Pittsburgh Steelers – The Bengals, and in particular Carson Palmer, are sloppy on offense. The Steelers will come back strong after a disappointing (by their standards) Sunday Night vs. the Saints.
3. New York Giants – Will Matt Hasselback be No. 6? The Giants have put five QBs out of commission this season and we like this unit to cause havoc on Sunday in Seattle.
4. Green Bay Packers - The Cowboys have given up on 2010. The Packers will crush them this week.
Next In Line
New England Patriots – Expect Bill Belichick to pressure Cleveland’s offense into multiple turnovers and sacks.
Baltimore Ravens - They’ve had a week to correct some issues on that side of the ball. We think Baltimore comes out with a chip on its shoulder.
Atlanta Falcons - They’re also well rested and should set the tempo at home against an overachieving Tampa Bay squad.
Rounding Out the List
Kansas City Chiefs - The improved Chiefs D will force Jason Campbell into a few turnovers by the Bay.
Oakland Raiders - On the flip side, the confident Raiders will pick at least two Matt Cassel passes off.
Detroit Lions – The Lions D has big play potential and could force the struggling Mark Sanchez into a few mistakes which lead to six.
Fantasy Sleeper of the Week
Minnesota Vikings - This unit has been very ordinary in 2010. Thankfully for them the Cardinals are coming to town. It doesn’t matter who starts, Max Hall or Derek Anderson, look for the Vikings, a strong fantasy sleeper in Week 9, to sack the QB five times and force multiple turnovers.
