1. Dallas Clark vs. Houston Texans
Clark had a season high 14 catches for 119 yards the last time these two teams played. The Texans don’t matchup well against the shifty TE and we expect another eight to 10 catches with 100 yards and a score. He’s the top ranked fantasy football TE in Week 12.
2. Vernon Davis vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
After a horrible 1st half offensively for the Niners (five passing yards for Alex Smith), Davis got hot in the 2nd half and finished with 108 yards and a TD vs. Green Bay. The Jaguars can be hurt down the middle of the field and Davis works this area well, so expect another big day for No. 85.
3. Antonio Gates vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Heath Miller just lit up the Chiefs defense to the tune of seven catches for 95 yards and a score. Gates will be one of Rivers primary targets on Sunday and we expect the All Pro TE to find the end zone at least once.
4. Jason Witten vs. Oakland Raiders
The Cowboys offense has been in a funk over the past three weeks and Witten’s numbers have been negatively affected because of it. Look for Witten, if able to go, to get back on track on Thanksgiving as the Raiders Safeties lack the coverage skills to keep up with him.
Sleepers
1. Jermichael Finley vs. Detroit Lions
Finley’s 1st game back from his knee injury resulted in seven catches for 54 yards. Rodgers targeted him on most underneath routes and he’ll have another big part offensively vs. the Lions on Thursday. He’s a great fantasy sleeperhere and should find the end zone.
2. Brandon Pettigrew vs. Green Bay Packers
Pettigrew has gotten better throughout the season and had a nice 72 yard, 1 TD performance against the Browns in Week 11. He provides an excellent target down the middle of the field and has the speed to blow past LBers and Safeties. He’ll be targeted heavily vs. the depleted Packers defense.
Others We Like
Kevin Boss vs. Denver Broncos
The Giants finally became smart and decided to incorporate Boss into their offense and the result was 76 yards and two TDs vs. the Falcons. The third year, soft handed TE should have another big game on Thanksgiving Night.
Tony Gonzalez vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Gonzalez has been a huge weapon for Matt Ryan and the Falcons offense and will have another solid outing against an undermanned Bucs secondary. He should finish near 100 yards with a score.
Kellen Winslow vs. Atlanta Falcons
The weakest link of the Falcons defense is its depleted secondary. Teams have had great success throwing on them and Josh Freeman will target Winslow early and often in Week 12.
A Few More
Visanthe Schiancoe vs. Chicago Bears
Greg Olsen vs. Minnesota Vikings
Jeremy Shockey vs. New England Patriots

Chicago Bears football tickets are at a premium this season. Watch the Bears take on their opponents with their improved offense and constantly improving defense. The defense was a stalwart in their Super Bowl run in 2006 and they installed new players into the system and to fit that smash mouth type of football.
