|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | Stroud ruled out for Week 11 | (FFChamps) Buffalo Bills' defensive tackle Marcus Stroud (knee) has been ruled out for the team's Week 11 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Analysis: Buffalo has the worst run defense in the league. Stroud is Buffalo's best run-stopper. Maurice Jones-Drew scores touchdowns whenever he wants to. He plays the Bills this weekend. How do you see this story ending? MJD was our No. 1 fantasy play at running back this weekend whether the big fella in the middle for the Bills played or not, but without Stroud clogging the lanes, Jones-Drew will probably ... (More) | 15 hours | |
| 2. | Coles probable | (FFChamps) Cincinnati Bengals' wide receiver Laveranues Coles (head) practiced fully on Friday, and is listed as probable for the team's game versus the Oakland Raiders. Analysis: Coles will most likely be good-to-go for Sunday. You have to think Chad Ochocinco will be blanketed by all-world cover specialist Nnamdi Asomugha for most of the contest, so Coles may get even more looks than normal this weekend (though, as it stands, he has led the team in targets over the past two weeks). Coles is no longer the deep threat he was in New York, but he is a v... (More) | 16 hours | |
| 3. | Saints | Three miss practice, out for Week 11 | (KFFL) New Orleans Saints WR Lance Moore (ankle), CB Jabari Greer (groin) and CB Tracy Porter (knee) missed the team's practice Friday, Nov. 20, and are out for Week 11. | 18 hours | |
| 4. | Bears | Clark, Payne doubtful for Week 11 | (KFFL) Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck) and SS Kevin Payne (back) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 20. They are listed as doubtful for Week 11 and will not play. | 22 hours | |
| 5. | Desmond Clark | (RotoWire) Clark (neck) did not practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Sunday night's game against Philadelphia, the Bears' official site reports. Analysis: Greg Olsen, who was already getting most of the tight end targets, should be used even more heavily as a result. | 22 hours | |
| 6. | Maurice Jones-Drew | (RotoWire) Jones-Drew gets a great matchup this week against the Bills, who rank last in the NFL in run defense. Analysis: Not that you really need an excuse to start Jones-Drew, but this game has as much potential as Tennessee's Chris Johnson had heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Bills. They have several defensive starters out, including Marcus Stroud, and have been getting shredded by the run all season. | 23 hours | |
| 7. | Lance Moore | (RotoWire) Moore (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Analysis: Moore hasn't played since Week 8 and will have to wait at least another week before making his return. | 23 hours | |
| 8. | Lance Moore ruled out | (Rotoworld) Lance Moore (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 11. Analysis: Moore, who has no timetable to return, is fantasy waiver wire fodder. | 1 day | |
| 9. | Chiefs | Bradley, Wade to share snaps while Bowe out | (KFFL) Adam Teicher, of The Kansas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs WRs Mark Bradley and Bobby Wade will share snaps at receiver while WR Dwayne Bowe is suspended. Bradley has downfield speed but has dropped some passes while Wade has good hands but is not much of a big-play threat. | 1 day | |
| 10. | Willie Parker | (RotoWire) Offensive Coordinator Bruce Arians said Parker still has a role in the ground attack, reports the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Analysis: Arians hinted Parker may have been involved more against the Bengals if Rashard Mendenhall hadn't received such a low number of carries (13). As well, Mewelde Moore came in on a series designated for Parker when the team decided to go no-huddle. Regardless, the starting job belongs to Mendenhall. Parker may see a few more touches if the rotation goes as planned or if the Steelers are up big in a game, but it's not enough to warrant considering him for fantasy purposes at this point. | 1 day | |
| 11. | Jake Delhomme | (RotoWire) Delhomme completed 19-of-42 attempts for 227 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Thursday's loss to Miami. Analysis: The Panthers strayed from the ground-heavy game plan that has been vital in their midseason turnaround over the last few weeks, throwing 42 passes and handing the ball off to running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart 25 times. In addition to his own inconsistent play, Delhomme lacks talent in his receiving corps beyond top wideout Steve Smith, which ultimately leads to struggles when the Panthers air it out. | 1 day | |
| 12. | DeAngelo Williams | (RotoWire) Williams (knee) rushed for 122 yards on 13 carries and picked up a two-point conversion in Thursday's loss to Miami. Analysis: The Panthers only handed the ball off 25 times, but Williams essentially shared the carries with Jonathan Stewart (12 carries, 43 yards). With extra rest, both backs should be able to rest their nagging injuries, perhaps returning the Carolina backfield to its regular 60-40 workload split favoring Williams in Week 12. | 1 day | |
| 13. | Maurice Jones-Drew | (RotoWire) Jones-Drew, in the wake of the last-second kneel-down that cost thousands of fantasy owners their games on Sunday, has promised to score more to make up for his fantasy misdeed, according to ESPN.com. Analysis: Jones-Drew noted that "you should tell those 10,000 (the approximate number of ESPN players who lost their fantasy games last week due to Jones-Drew not scoring that final touchdown)) I will score next time." | 1 day | |
| 14. | Panthers | D. Williams, J. Stewart active for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers DeAngelo Williams (knee) and RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') are active for the team's Week 11 game. | 1 day | |
| 15. | D-Will rushes for 122 yards in Week 11 | (Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams rushed 13 times for 122 yards and added one reception for nine yards against the Dolphins in Week 11. Analysis: Averaging close to 10 yards a pop, an explosive Williams couldn't be stopped by a previous stout Dolphins run defense. Had the coaches not been trying to build confidence in Jake Delhomme, Williams could have threatened 200 yards. Having learned a valuable lesson, the Panthers will look to get the ball back in Williams' hands next week against the Jets. With six straight games over 100 total yards, he remains a must-start RB1. | 1 day | |
| 16. | Delhomme throws for 227 yards in loss | (Rotoworld) Jake Delhomme completed 19-of-42 passes for 227 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against the Dolphins in Week 11. He added two scrambles for 17 yards. Analysis: The coaching staff tried to coddle Delhomme's burgeoning confidence, calling more pass plays and ultimately damaging the team's chances of winning. Delhomme started a relatively strong 5-of-9 for 59 yards but fell apart thereafter while the playcallers continued to neglect a dominant rushing attack. Delhomme didn't completely melt down, however, so he's in no danger of losing his job going into next week's game against the Jets. | 1 day | |
| 17. | Panthers inactives for Week 11 | (FFChamps) The Carolina Panthers have announced the following players as inactive for tonight's game against the Miami Dolphins: RB Mike Goodson, WR Kenneth Moore, S Charles Godfrey, FB Brad Hoover, OG Duke Robinson, DE Charles Johnson, DE Hilee Taylor, and QB A.J. Feeley. Analysis: Breathe easy...DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, who were both listed as questionable, will play for the Panthers tonight. It's not an easy matchup against the seventh-ranked Dolphins run defense, but include them in your starting lineup if you would normally do so. | 1 day | |
| 18. | Panthers | D. Williams, J. Stewart active for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers DeAngelo Williams (knee) and RB Jonathan Stewart (Achilles') are active for the team's Week 11 game. | 1 day | |
| 19. | Bears | Clark, Payne miss practice Thursday | (KFFL) Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck) and SS Kevin Payne (back) did not participate in practice Thursday, Nov. 19. They are considered questionable for Week 11. | 1 day | |
| 20. | Lance Moore | (RotoWire) Moore (ankle) did not practice Thursday, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports. Analysis: He's looking iffy, at best, for Sunday's game against the Bucs. | 1 day | |
| 21. | Lance Moore misses practice again | (Rotoworld) Lance Moore (ankle) missed practice again Thursday. Analysis: Moore hasn't practiced since Week 8 and should be considered "week-to-week" with a high ankle sprain. Robert Meachem will continue to see extra snaps in his place. | 1 day | |
| 22. | Desmond Clark | (RotoWire) Clark (neck) missed Thursday's practice, Chicago Breaking Sports News reports. Analysis: Clark, who aggravated his neck injury during last Thursday's game against the 49ers, has yet to practice this week. | 1 day | |
| 23. | Moore misses practice Thursday | (TheHuddle) PewterReport.com reports New Orleans Saints WR Lance Moore (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Nov. 19. Analysis: If Moore misses yet another game this week, Robert Meachem will have a good shot at continuing his two-game touchdown streak. | 1 day | |
| 24. | DeAngelo Williams | (RotoWire) Williams (knee) is expected to play Thursday against Miami, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Analysis: We expected this outcome even after Williams missed Wednesday's practice, so this shouldn't come as a surprise if you've been following Williams' player notes. Check back about an hour before kickoff for final confirmation, but both Williams and backfield mate Jonathan Stewart are expected to play against the Dolphins. | 1 day | |
| 25. | Stewart expected to play | (FFChamps) Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart is expected to play in tonight's game against the Dolphins, according to a Tweet this afternoon from ESPN's Adam Schefter. Stewart is listed as questionable on the injury report because of his lingering Achilles' tendon injury; however, he is listed as questionable every week because of the ailment and keeps playing. Moreover, he practiced fully on Wednesday. Analysis: The Dolphins are stout against the run, but Stewart is an every-week threat to at least hit paydirt from short range. If he is typically in your fantasy lineup, don't let his misleading questionabl... (More) | 1 day | |
| 26. | Williams expected to play | (FFChamps) Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams is expected to play in tonight's game against the Dolphins, according to a Tweet this afternoon from ESPN's Adam Schefter. Williams did not practice Wednesday beause of his sore knee and is listed as questionable for the game. Analysis: Williams was a game time decision this past Sunday after being listed as questionable, yet played the entire game. The Dolphins will be a tough matchup, but we suspect Schefter is right and that Williams will suit up. In most cases, unless you are loaded at running back, that means he should be in your fantasy lineup as well. | 2 days | |
| 27. | Saints | Moore misses practice Thursday | (KFFL) Jim Flynn, of PewterReport.com, reports New Orleans Saints WR Lance Moore (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Nov. 19. | 2 days | |
| 28. | Chiefs | Bradley, Bowe to share snaps while Bowe out | (KFFL) Adam Teicher, of The Kansas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs WRs Mark Bradley and Bobby Wade will share snaps at receiver while WR Dwayne Bowe is suspended. Bradley has downfield speed but has dropped some passes while Wade has good hands but is not much of a big-play threat. | 2 days | |
| 29. | Desmond Clark misses practice | (Rotoworld) Bears TE Desmond Clark missed Thursday's practice with a neck injury. Analysis: Clark suffered the injury in last week's game against the 49ers. Kellen Davis will play in two-tight ends sets if Clark can't go this week. | 2 days | |
| 30. | Williams will play Thursday | (Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams (knee, questionable) is expected to play Thursday night, confirms ESPN's Adam Schefter. Analysis: Coach John Fox already acknowledged that Williams sat out practice on Wednesday just to rest. He's a full go and is a RB1 even against the solid Dolphins' run defense. | 2 days | |
| 31. | Williams questionable for Thursday night | (FFChamps) Carolina Panthers' running back DeAngelo Williams is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game against the Miami Dolphins. Williams was questionable for Week 10, as well, but played a full compliment of snaps and showed no ill effects of his lingering knee injury in a victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Analysis: Williams averaged nearly 5.0 YPC on 17 carries last weekend, despite being a game-time decision. There were no reports of Williams tweaking the knee any further, and the fact that Carolina gave him a significant workload against the Falcons in Week 10 makes us think the knee isn't a huge... (More) | 2 days | |
| 32. | Bears | Three miss practice Wednesday | (KFFL) Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck), C Olin Kreutz (back) and S Kevin Payne (back) missed the team's practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 2 days | |
| 33. | Saints | Moore misses practice Wednesday | (KFFL) Nakia Hogan, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, reports New Orleans Saints WR Lance Moore (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. | 3 days | |
| 34. | Lance Moore misses practice | (Rotoworld) Lance Moore (ankle) missed Saints practice on Wednesday. Analysis: Moore, sidelined since Week 8, has no known timetable for return. | 3 days | |
| 35. | Panthers | Williams questionable for Week 11 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers RB DeAngelo Williams (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Nov. 18. He is listed as questionable for Week 11. | 3 days | |
| 36. | Lance Moore | (RotoWire) Moore (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, the New Orleans Times-Picayune's Jeff Duncan reports. Analysis: Moore hasn't been a fantasy option this season, but he's valuable to the Saints simply because he gives Drew Brees an additional weapon to deploy against opposing defenses. Moore has missed two games with the injury and his status for Sunday's tilt with the Buccaneers remains iffy. | 3 days | |
| 37. | Desmond Clark | (RotoWire) Clark (neck) did not practice Wednesday, the Chicago Sun-Times' Brad Biggs reports. Analysis: Clark aggravated his neck injury in the first half of Thursday's loss to the 49ers. His status for Sunday night's game against the Eagles is unknown, but there are probably better options available than Clark (11 receptions, 91 yards) anyway. | 3 days | |
| 38. | DeAngelo Williams | (RotoWire) Williams (knee) was held out of Wednesday's practice and is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Darin Gantt of the Rock Hill Herald reports. Analysis: A couple of things to consider. First, the Panthers have been very liberal with the questionable tag this season. Second, Williams wasn't mentioned as a non-participant in practice earlier in the week. Third, Williams played in Week 10 after carrying a questionable tag and missing practice on Friday. We think he'll be able to play on Thursday night, but you'll want to check back about an hour before kickoff just to be certain. | 3 days | |
| 39. | DeAngelo Williams rests on Wednesday | (Rotoworld) Panthers coach John Fox acknowledged Wednesday that DeAngelo Williams (knee, questionable) sat out practice only to "rest." Analysis: Williams hasn't been limping and is playing well despite the alleged injury. Safely consider him a lock to lead Carolina in touches on Thursday night. | 3 days | |
| 40. | Mark Bradley | (RotoWire) Bradley could have an expanded role in the Chiefs' offense during Dwayne Bowe's four-game suspension for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances. Analysis: Since Week 3, Bradley hasn't scored a touchdown or topped 35 yards receiving in a game. The increased targets in Bowe's absence should help, but you're probably better off grabbing a receiver who plays in a more prolific passing offense. | 3 days | |
| 41. | DeAngelo Williams | (RotoWire) Williams (knee) hasn't appeared on the Panthers' injury report for Week 11. Analysis: The final report of the week will come out on Wednesday, but it's unlikely that Williams' name will be on it as anything other than probable as the knee issues that bothered him last week haven't resurfaced over the last couple of weeks. | 4 days | |
| 42. | Steelers | Parker to see action every third series | (KFFL) Ed Bouchette, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reports Pittsburgh Steelers RB Willie Parker will likely be utilized every third series at least on offense for the time being. "Get back to work every third series,'' Parker said of the plan. "I just have to do something." Parker said he is over his toe injury, although he will continue to wear the special Nike shoes built for him the rest of the season. "I'm ready to get on that field now. It's just a matter of time. I'm waiting patiently. I'm waiting and, when my time comes, my number is called, I have to make the best of it." | 4 days | |
| 43. | Chad Johnson | (RotoWire) Johnson had his worst game of the season in the Week 10 win over the Steelers, catching just two passes for 29 yards. Analysis: Johnson was frequently targeted over the middle, but he and Carson Palmer could not hook up very often, and later he was exclusively in double-coverage. | 4 days | |
| 44. | Bears | Three miss practice Monday | (KFFL) Vaughn McClure, of the Chicago Tribune, reports Chicago Bears TE Desmond Clark (neck), S Kevin Payne (back) and C Olin Kreutz (rest) sat out the team's practice Monday, Nov. 16. | 4 days | |
| 45. | Aaron Rodgers | (RotoWire) Rodgers completed 25 of 36 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Cowboys. He also ran for 15 yards and a touchdown. Analysis: The Cowboys generated a lot of pressure as expected, but the Packers largely negated the rush with a heavy dose of three-step drops and short throws. It helped Rodgers stay upright, but it didn't do much for his fantasy numbers in a game that was 3-0 entering the fourth quarter. It was just the second time all year Rodgers was held under 245 yards passing. | 4 days | |
| 46. | Rams | Jackson moves up franchise rushing list | (KFFL) Jim Thomas, of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, reports St. Louis Rams RB Steven Jackson moved up to third place on the Rams' all-time rushing list in Week 10. Jackson finished the game with 6,206 career yards and moved ahead of former NFL RB Lawrence McCutcheon, who rushed for 6,186 yards in his Rams career. | 4 days | |
| 47. | Jake Delhomme | (RotoWire) Delhomme completed 15-of-24 passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Falcons. Analysis: It's becoming easy to forget that Delhomme was nearly replaced as the Panthers' starting quarterback prior to their Week 8 win over the Cardinals, but he's cut out the turnovers over the last three games while losing just one fumble and posting a 3:0 TD:INT ratio. Delhomme still shouldn't be deployed as an every-week starter, but he can be a useful one-week plug-in with the right matchups down the stretch. | 5 days | |
| 48. | MJD first to top 100 on Rex Ryan since 2... | (Rotoworld) With 123 yards Sunday, Maurice Jones-Drew became the first running back to top 100 rushing yards against a Rex Ryan defense since Larry Johnson accomplished the feat in 2006. Analysis: Much of that can be attributed to the loss of NT Kris Jenkins (ACL), but Jones-Drew is enjoying an excellent season. He leads the league with 12 touchdowns while averaging 120 yards per game and 5.1 yards per carry in his first stint as the Jags' every-down back. | 5 days | |
| 49. | Gross undergoes ankle surgery | (FFChamps) Updating an earlier report, Carolina Panthers left tackle Jordan Gross underwent surgery Sunday night to repair his broken right ankle. The team will reportedly place him on injured reserve later today, ending his season. Analysis: This is obviously a huge loss for the Panthers offense. You just don't replace a Pro Bowl left tackle. Jake Delhomme's blind side will be pressured more often now, which is never a good thing for a quarterback who turns the ball over as often as he does. | 5 days | |
| 50. | Parker plays just two downs against Cinc... | (Rotoworld) Willie Parker played just two downs against the Bengals Sunday. Analysis: He played just one down the previous week against Denver. Parker is obviously no threat to Rashard Mendenhall's starting job. | 5 days | |
| 51. | Jones-Drew scores Week 10 | (TheHuddle) The Associated Press reports Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew had 24 carries for 123 yards with a touchdown Week 10. He also caught two passes for 22 receiving yards. He almost scored another touchdown, but instead took a knee at the 1-yard line with just over a minute left in the game against the New York Jets. QB David Garrard took a knee on the next two plays, and PK Josh Scobee hit the game-winning 21-yard field goal as time expired. Jones-Drew became the first player to rush for 100 or more yards against the Jets this season. Analysis: Ouch! Jones-Drew took a knee on the 1-yard li... (More) | 5 days | |
| 52. | Jones-Drew apologizes to fantasy owners | (Rotoworld) Maurice Jones-Drew apologized to his fantasy football owners for kneeling down at the one-yard line at the end of Sunday's win. Analysis: "To my fantasy owners, I apologize," Jones-Drew said. "I have myself today, so it was a tough call. But whatever it takes for a victory, that's all that counts." The kneel-down essentially clinched the win for Jacksonville, much like MoJo's 630 total yards and seven TDs in the past four games have likely clinched victories for his fantasy owners over the last month. | 5 days | |
| 53. | Packers | Rodgers solid in Week 10 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers went 25-for-36 for 189 yards and one touchdown in Week 10. He also rushed for 15 yards and one touchdown on five carries. | 5 days | |
| 54. | Steven Jackson | (RotoWire) Jackson carried the ball 26 times for 131 yards and one touchdown and also had nine receptions for 45 yards in the Rams' loss to the Saints in Week 10. Analysis: Another huge week for Jackson who just piles up the yards while his club piles up losses. The good news is Marc Bulger played very good on Sunday and if he can regain his past pro bowl form it should lead to a lot more holes for Jackson to run through. | 5 days | |
| 55. | Rodgers runs for TD, throws one in clutc... | (Rotoworld) Aaron Rodgers completed 25-of-36 passes for 189 yards and a touchdown, and scrambled four times for 16 yards and another score as Green Bay knocked off the Cowboys 17-7 in Week 10. Analysis: Rodgers took for more sacks, but avoided turnovers and made clutch plays in a much-needed win for Green Bay. The rushing score was Rodgers' third of 2009, and he'll still be the No. 1 overall fantasy QB when Week 11 opens. The Packers didn't take many risks downfield, but played dominating defense and resilient offense. They host San Francisco next Sunday. | 5 days | |
| 56. | Maurice Jones-Drew | (RotoWire) Jones-Drew (knee) rushed for 123 yards and scored a touchdown in Sunday's 24-22 win over the Jets. Jones-Drew added two receptions for 22 yards. Analysis: Jones-Drew produced like he always does, but he could have had a monster game. He fumbled inside the five-yard line in the third quarter and then went down intentionally at the one-yard line, a la Brian Westbrook, in the final two minutes to kill the rest of the clock and set up the game-winning field goal with no time left. If Jones-Drew had scored, as he easily could have, the Jets would have had over 90 seconds to try and tie or win the game with a touchdown. Instead, he made the smart play and went down to... (More) | 5 days | |
| 57. | DeAngelo Williams | (RotoWire) Williams (knee) gained 92 yards on 19 carries and caught one pass for 30 yards in Sunday's 28-19 win over Atlanta. Analysis: The good news is that Williams was able to play after missing practice on Friday. The bad news is that Jonathan Stewart scored a pair of touchdowns, including a one-yard run in the first quarter. | 5 days | |
| 58. | Jaguars | Jones-Drew scores Week 10 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew had 24 carries for 123 yards with a touchdown Week 10. He also caught two passes for 22 receiving yards. He almost scored another touchdown, but instead took a knee at the 1-yard line with just over a minute left in the game against the New York Jets. QB David Garrard took a knee on the next two plays, and PK Josh Scobee hit the game-winning 21-yard field goal as time expired. Jones-Drew became the first player to rush for 100 or more yards against the Jets this season. | 5 days | |
| 59. | Delhomme on point in Week 10 victory | (Rotoworld) Jake Delhomme completed 15-of-24 passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns and added 11 yards on the ground against the Falcons in Week 10. Analysis: Delhomme was at his best Sunday, taking care of the ball, managing the offense, and even picking up a big first-down on the ground. He's now gone two games without an interception, which qualifies as significant progress. With left tackle Jordan Gross out for the season, Delhomme is unlikely to be even an attractive QB2 the rest of the way. | 5 days | |
| 60. | D-Willy totals 122 yards in Week 10 win | (Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams rushed 19 times for 92 yards and added one reception for 30 yards against the Falcons in Week 10. Analysis: Williams didn't show any outward signs of the knee injury that had him as questionable going into the game. He received just one of the team's four carries from inside the 5-yard line, as Jonathan Stewart remains the primary goal-line back. Streaking into a tough matchup against the Dolphins, Williams has now gone over 100 combined yards in five straight games. | 5 days | |
| 61. | Rams | Jackson rushes for 131 yards Week 10 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports St. Louis Rams RB Steven Jackson rushed for 131 yards and one touchdown on 26 carries in Week 10. | 5 days | |
| 62. | Willie Parker | (RotoWire) Parker saw action in just one series against the Bengals in Week 10. This is the second straight game in which he was limited to one series on the field. Analysis: Parker had one carry for seven yards and had one pass directed his way (incomplete). Despite Parker's call for more carries this past week, it was Mewelde Moore who was on the field more often on top of being involved in the offense more. Whether Parker is still hindered by injury issues or the team just doesn't have a whole lot of confidence in his abilities right now, it appears Moore is the No. 2 back for the time being. Regardless, neither back is effective for fantasy purposes at this point. | 5 days | |
| 63. | Panthers LT Gross breaks ankle | (FFChamps) Panthers left tackle Jordan Gross broke his right ankle in their 28-19 win over Atlanta on Sunday. The injury occurred in the second quarter when a Falcons player fell into Gross' leg, which bent it awkwardly. Coach John Fox told The Associated Press after the game that doctors told him Gross’ ankle was broken, leaving Carolina without their best offensive lineman indefinitely. Analysis: Travelle Wharton replaced Gross at left tackle and Mackenzy Bernadeau replaced Wharton at left guard for the remainder of the game, but there's no easy way to replace a left tackle who has started every game since 2003. | 5 days | |
| 64. | Ocho doesn't get to do his dance | (Rotoworld) Chad Ochocinco was held to two catches for 29 yards in Sunday's win over the Steelers. Analysis: No mustard on this hot dog as Chad has his worst game of the season. Ochocinco ran some really crisp routes but couldn't shake the second level of the Steelers' secondary. Chalk it up as a bad day and expect bigger things against the Raiders next week despite Nnamdi Asomugha's presence. | 5 days | |
| 65. | Santana Moss catches two for eight yards | (Rotoworld) Santana Moss caught just two passes for eight yards in Week 10. Analysis: The Skins protected Jason Campbell surprisingly well -- he took just three sacks and often had a clean pocket -- but focused on a shortened passing game and aren't taking risks downfield. Consider Moss a WR4 until he picks it up. | 5 days | |
| 66. | MJD scores once, passes up second TD lat... | (Rotoworld) Maurice Jones-Drew rushed 23 times for 123 yards and one touchdown in Week 10 against the Jets, passing up a second score in the fourth quarter to burn clock before a last-second field goal attempt. Analysis: Much like Brian Westbrook two years ago Jones-Drew slid to a stop at the one-yard line rather than go in for a touchdown that would have left the Jets with time for a comeback. The big difference is that the Jaguars still trailed by one point at the time, leaving it up to Josh Scobee to nail a chip-shot for the win. His fantasy owners don't have a whole lot of room to complain, because MJD now has 630 total y... (More) | 5 days | |
| 67. | S-Jax nets 176 yards, TD in Week 10 loss | (Rotoworld) Steven Jackson racked up 131 yards and a touchdown on 26 rushes and caught nine passes for 45 yards in Week 10 against the Saints. Analysis: Jackson had an incredible first half, tallying over 50 net yards in the first quarter and 100 rushing yards by halftime. He also found the end zone for his second score of the season. S-Jax was less effective in the second half as the Saints stacked the box, but he still managed a fantasy-friendly 176 overall yards. The Rams take on the Cardinals in Week 11. | 5 days | |
| 68. | Panthers inactives for Week 10 | (FFChamps) The Carolina Panthers have announced the following players as inactive for today's game against the Atlanta Falcons: RB Mike Goodson, S Charles Godfrey, FB Brad Hoover, OT Garry Williams, OG Duke Robinson, DE Hilee Taylor, DT Nick Hayden, and QB A.J. Feeley. Analysis: The big news for Carolina is that DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart will both see action this weekend in a big NFC South showdown with Atlanta. Williams was questionable all week with a knee injury, but he can be inserted into fantasy lineups with confidence. Despite stru... (More) | 6 days | |
| 69. | DeAngelo Williams active versus Falcons | (Rotoworld) DeAngelo Williams (knee) is active and will start against the Falcons Sunday.
