1.Phillip Rivers - The guy is an absolute fantasy football machine this year. He’s putting up 300+ yard games weekly and has tossed 15 TDs. Look for that to continue against a poor Texans secondary.
2. Peyton Manning - The Eagles D was torched by Kerry Collins and Kenny Britt. Manning and Co. will post huge numbers on Sunday.
3. Aaron Rodgers – The Cowboys have thrown in the towel (see performance vs. David Garrard).
4. Drew Brees - Brees had a superb 2nd half vs. the Steelers and look for continued success against the Panthers.
Next In Line
Eli Manning – The Giants are coming off a bye and Eli will toss 3 TDs vs. the Seahawks.
Joe Flacco - The Dolphins are vulnerable to the deep ball and Flacco throws one of the best.
Matt Schaub – The Chargers are another with a poor pass defense so look for Schaub and Johnson to hook up plenty.
Rounding Out the List
Tom Brady - He’ll be spreading the ball around once again and should top 250 yards and 2 TDs.
Ben Roethlisberger - The Bengals Secondary is beat up right now. Roethlisberger will toss for multiple TDs and 250 yards.
Matt Ryan – He and Roddy White are one of the best combos in the game. Look for a strong performance against the Bucs.
Josh Freeman - If CB Dunta Robinson is out, Freeman could be in line for a strong afternoon.
Mike Vick – There’s a chance WR DeSean Jackson is back. If so, all the better, and Vick should be solid through the air and on the ground.
Chad Henne – The Ravens pass defense is the one weakness for the unit.
Fantasy Sleeper of the Week
Mark Sanchez – The 2nd year starter is coming off a tough game vs. the Pack. He’ll bounce back vs. the Lions and toss 2 to 3 TDs while eclipsing 200 yards. He’s a good fantasy sleeper this week.
