Line 'em up/ Bench their butts

The Counselor is IN:

Line ‘em Up

QB Jay Cutler of Denver. Cutler is starting to really find his groove. He is third on the passing yards for this season. He has good talent at Wide Receiver. He is starting to become start every week QB but is not quite there yet. This week they are playing Atlanta who is 22^nd against the pass. I look for another big week for Cutler.

QB Tyler Thigpin of Kansas City. I would not bench a fantasy stud for Thigpin yet but if you have some injuries, he is a decent start this weekend. He has improved by leaps and bounds since he was thrown in his first game earlier this year. He has potential to be a good NFL QB and a good fantasy QB. KC is playing against the Saints in KC. The Chiefs are much tougher in KC than on the road. New Orleans is struggling against the pass by giving up 238.4 yards per game for 27^th.

QB Tony Romo of Dallas (Bonus QB) Don’t forget that Tony will be back this weekend. Some people are afraid that he might be rusty. I would not worry about that. He needs to pick this team up and put them on his shoulders this weekend to get them back in the playoff hunt and they are playing against the archrival Redskins. Start him if you have him.

RB DeAnglo Williams of Carolina. Williams has performed well with job sharing with Stewart. Williams has displayed why he is there number 1 runningback. They are playing against the Detroit Lions who are 31^st against the run. This should be a no brainer start.

RB Marshawn Lynch of Buffalo. Lynch has been fairly lackluster this season. He has a favorable match up against the Browns Run Defense. Cleveland is 26^th against the run and gives up 145.2 yards per game.

WR Steve Smith of Carolina. Smith is finally getting back into the grove after being suspended earlier in the season. They are playing against the Lions. The Lions are pitiful. Look for Smith to have well over 120 yards and a TD.

WR Roddy White of Atlanta. Matt Ryan is playing very well and he loves White. It should be a shoot out in Atlanta this weekend because both team struggle to defend the pass. I look for White to have a big game.

Bench their Butts

QB David Garrad of Jacksonville. He is playing against the undefeated Titans. The Titans are a really good defensive team. They are number 1 defense against scoring. Let Garrad sit the bench.

QB Trent Edwards of Buffalo. It is not that the Browns are very good against the pass. It is the fact that they are much worse against the run. I don’t think Edwards will need to pass the ball very often.

RB Maurice Jones-Drew of Jacksonville. The Titans are tough against the run. They will not let either Jones-Drew or Taylor have much running room. Bench them both.

RB Larry Johnson of Kansas City. Johnson is not well liked in KC because of his bad behavior. He will share carries at best this weekend. I do not look for Johnson to be much of a fantasy contributor.

WR Bernard Berrian of Minnisota. Berrian will have trouble against a stingy Bucs defense. I do not see him have a good week this week. Let him sit and start him next week.

WR Chris Chambers of San Diego. I do not like his match up against the Steelers. The Steelers are not great against the pass like they used to be but I think they will cover the Charger receivers well.
