Houston Texans at St. Louis Rams
Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson proved their worth as fantasy stars. Schaub threw for 367 yards and a touchdown. Johnson caught nine passes for 196 of those yards.
Steven Jackson led the Rams in rushing and receiving and tallied 123 total yards.
Arizona Cardinals at Detroit Lions
Kurt Warner may not have put of the points his owners were hoping for this week, but he ended up turning in a decent performance. He threw for 233 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin each caught a touchdown. Beanie Wells had a nice game worth 110 yards rushing and a score.
Calvin Johnson continued his struggles and let his owners down with only three catches for thrity five yards. Maurice Morris rushed for 126 yards and a touchdown in what was most likely a wasted fantasy performance as no one in the universe started him.
New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills
Tom Brady did to owners what he did two years ago when he broke the passing touchdown record, he laid a total egg in the fantasy playoffs. He had an interception early on and didn’t surpass 100 yards until the second half. He did find Randy Moss for a touchdown.
Lee Evans scored the lone touchdown for the Bills. Otherwise, their offense stinks, but for some reason their defense always plays the Patriots tough. I wish I would have remembered that before I started Brady!
Miami Dolphins at Tennessee Titans
Chad Henne had a huge day passing with 349 yards and a touchdown, but he also had three interceptions. Ricky Williams rushed for eighty yards and a touchdown.
Vince Young seems to have figured out this whole NFL quarterback thing. He threw three touchdowns on 236 yards passing with one pick. Chris Johnson didn’t find the end zone and coughed up a rare fumble. He did have 159 total yards.
Atlanta Falcons at New York Jets
The coaches in this game cheered more for missed field goals than they did for touchdowns. Tony Gonzalez caught the Falcons touchdown.
The only Jets touchdown came when Braylon Edwards actually caught a wide open touchdown pass for sixty five yards.
Cleveland Browns at Kansas City Chiefs
This game featured a ton of scoring by people who most likely had zero fantasy impact. Case in point, Jerome Harrison rushed for 286 yards and three touchdowns, but there is no way he got started in a league with any less than twelve teams. Similarly, Joshua Cribbs had two kick off returns for touchdowns.
Matt Cassell had one of his best games of the year. He threw for 331 yards and two touchdowns. Jamaal Charles ran for 154 yards and a score.
Oakland Raiders at Denver Broncos
The Raiders were led by Michael Bush’s 133 yards rushing including a twenty three yard scoring run.
The Broncos were led by Matt Prater’s four field goals, which is a good indication as to why they lost to the Raiders. Brandon Marshall caught a touchdown.
Cincinnati Bengals at San Diego Chargers
The Bengals played well with heavy hearts after the passing of Chris Henry earlier this week. Carson Palmer had his first game over 300 yards this season including two touchdown passes. One of which was caught by Chad Ochocinco. Ocho had seventy nine yards receiving and an inspired twenty six yard run.
Philip Rivers continued his hot streak passing for 308 yards and three touchdowns. Two of Rivers’ touchdown passes went to Vincent Jackson and the other went to Antonio Gates.
Chicago Bears at Baltimore Ravens
Maybe Jay Cutler isn’t as good as people thought he was because the Bears’ offense is as bad as its been in years, perhaps including the Sexy Rexy and Kyle Orton years. The only Chicago score came on an Earl Bennett punt return.
Joe Flacco broke out of a slump that has lasted much of the second half of the season. He threw four touchdown passes and no interceptions. Two of his touchdown passes went to his long lost tight end, Todd Heap.
San Francisco 49ers at Philadelphia Eagles
The Niners’ offense struggled in Philly. Alex Smith returned as the ghost of Alex of Years’ Past with three interceptions and less than 200 yards passing. Frank Gore rushed for over 100 yards in the loss.
Donovan McNabb threw for over 300 yards, but only had one score and two interceptions. DeSean Jackson stood out again for the Eagles with 140 yards receiving and a touchdown.
Green Bay Packers at Pittsburgh Steelers
Aaron Rodgers owners might be singing his name all the way to the fantasy super bowl. He accounted for four touchdowns, including 383 yards passing and twenty two yards rushing. Greg Jennings finally showed up for a score and 118 yards receiving.
Speaking of huge games, Ben Roethlisberger threw for 503 yards and three touchdowns. He found Michael Wallace for two of the three scores.
Tampa Bay at Seattle Seahawks
I’m not sure what to make of Josh Freeman. He is on a terrible team, but has showed flashes of fantasy brilliance. His numbers weren’t great, but two touchdowns and 205 yards is a far sight better than one Tom Terrific. Derrick Ward and Carnell Williams rushed for sixty seven and sixty six yards respectively and each caught a touchdown.
I’m not sure what to make of Matt Hasselbeck either. I drafted him as a back up this year and quickly dropped him and never saw him make an appearance on another team all year. He has been banged up, but when he has played he has been awful. He threw four interceptions against a bad Bucs defense.
