Week 13: Look out for…
December 1st, 2009 by Danny D.Can I just state the fact that you should always be on the look out for the Saints..duh
Thomas Jones: Facing Buffalo, who no longer has sights on the playoffs, should be a pretty favorable match up. They are dead last in rushing defense allowing over 165 yards per game. The Jets don’t have much to play for either, but Jones want to lock in his 1,000 yards and 10 TD season. It safe to say he’ll have a good game.
Fred Jackson: Lynch-out as starter. Jackson- more than happy to prove he is worthy of that start. Jackson did just that with15 rushes and 2 TDs, 5 catches for 43 yards vs MIA last week. The offense also has some fire in them since the benching of Edwards. Fitzpatrick has been able to hook up with T.O. allowing for that running game to reemerge. The Jets rushing defense is similar to the Dolphins defense in the sense that they allow similar rushing yards per game (108). Jackson wants to remain the starter, so he’ll give it all hes got this week.
San Diego: From Rivers to Gates, and to Tomlinson and Jackson. This week should be an early Christmas gift as the Chargers visit the boring, bloody-bad Browns. Look for Rivers to hit more than his favorite targets- Floydshould also have a solid game. The Chargers defense should aslo be an easy start. The Browns defense: 24th in yards passing and 29th in yards rushing per game.
The HOU- JACgame: Texans defense: 15th and 22nd in passing yards per game and rushing yards per game, respectively. Jaguars defense: 26th and 10th in passsing and rushing yards per game, respectively. Shuab should easily be able to hook up with his favorite target in Johnson, and give some here and there to Walters, and Chris Brown (who is expected to start with Slaton OUT) For JAX, I like Sims-Walker and Jones-Drew. Both should be able to rack up yards and scores. Don’t rely on Garrard though, he just can’t be trusted.
The Bengals: Benson is set to start, and the offense all around seems better with him in despite what Johnson did last week (and congrats to him). Palmer should have a better week vs DETand also should OchoCino and Caldwell, and maybe Coles if he is healthy. I also like their defense this week as well.
Just an FYI, keep an open ear to when and who the Colts will be resting in the coming weeks- whether for entire or partial games. It may not come this week, and if it doesn’t, I like Garcon, Clark, Manning, and Wayne in the pass attack vs TEN.
Another FYI, if you own Elam, drop him for Matt Bryant. Elam was just released.
I’m also looking forward to the Christmas game too (SD @ TEN) And could OAK @ CLE be another Detroit- Cleveland game? Will BAL @ PIT have huge playoff implications as well as DEN @ PHI?
