Week 4 Strong Play-Weak Play

Strong QB Plays

Donovan McNabb @NYG: McNabb should follow up with another big game against the Giants after a career day last week against the Lions.

Phillip Rivers vs. KC: Rivers has a near 90 QB rating this season while facing some of the leagues best defenses. Rivers could be in for a big day as the Chargers look to get back on track at home against the struggling Chiefs.

Jon Kitna vs. CHI: The Bears Defense has been wiped out by injuries the past few weeks. Both starting corners Nathan Vasher and Charles Tillman are out for this week’s game. The Lions will look to make a statement game while Kitna and his receivers should have big days.

Tony Romo vs. STL: Romo should feast at home against the Rams and will continue to be a top fantasy QB

Chad Pennington @BUF: The Bills Secondary is depleted by injuries. Pennington has the potential for a big game with WR’s Laveranues Coles and Jericho Cotchery having good seasons.

Weak QB Plays

Derek Anderson vs. BAL: Put Anderson on your bench this week and look for a better QB match up on your roster. The Ravens Defense will shut him down.

Matt Leinart vs PIT: Avoid Leinart this week facing a tough Steelers Defense. Add to the fact he was taken out last week in favor of backup Kurt Warner.

Marc Bulger @DAL: Bulger did not look good last week at Tampa Bay and he has two broken ribs, no O-Line, and no Steven Jackson. The Dallas Defense has improved dramatically since their week 1 torching by the Giants.

Strong RB Plays

Willis McGahee @CLE: The Browns have been giving up big games on the ground all year. McGahee should have his best day as a Raven this Sunday.

Thomas Jones @BUF: The Bills are hurting on Defense with injuries and Jones should take advantage with a solid fantasy day.

Marion Barber III vs. STL: The Rams gave up over 140 yards and 3 TD’s on the ground last week to the Bucs. Barber should have another big day with a TD and around 100 yards.

Cedric Benson @DET: The Bears will look to slow this game down with new starting QB Brian Griese and will want to keep their banged up defense off the field. Benson should continue to build on his solid season.

DeShaun Foster vs. TB: Foster has averaged 5.2 yards a carry this so far this season and had 2 TD's last week. Tampa Bay has not been able to stop the run very well this season and could give up some big runs to Foster.

LaMont Jordan @MIA: Jordan is having a top fantasy season so far this season. Miami has not been able to stop any runningbacks the first few weeks and Jordan will have another big game.

Weak RB Plays

Warrick Dunn vs. HOU: The Texans Defense has done a fairly decent job of containing offenses this year. Dunn will have a tough day against the Texans.

Jamal Lewis vs. BAL: The Ravens Defense will shut down the Browns and Lewis in his homecoming game. Only start Lewis if you have no other option.

Cadillac Williams @CAR: Williams has never had good games against the Panthers in his first two seasons. Carolina has been shutting teams down on the ground all year. Expect Graham and Pittman to get a more touches as they have been playing well this year.

Brandon Jackson @MIN: Jackson has been somewhat of a dissapointment to fantasy owners who had high expectations out of the rookie from Nebraska. The Vikings boast one of the top run defenses in the league and should shut the first year back down at home.

Strong WR Plays

Laveranues Coles @BUF: The Jets should be able to throw all over the Bills and Coles should have a big day.

Jerricho Cotchery @BUF: Cotchery should also have a good day against the Bills who are depleted on Defense with injuries.

Santonio Holmes @ARI: Big Ben will look to Holmes often with Hines Ward out with a knee sprain. Holmes has got to get more involved this week and should get more attempts.

Kevin Curtis @NYG: Last week was a career day for Curtis and the Eagles. The Giants have been getting torched all year through the air and Curtis looks to be McNabb’s go to receiver.

Vincent Jackson vs. KC: Jackson looks to be on the verge of a breakout season. He should have a solid game at home against the Chiefs.

Ronald Curry vs. MIA: Curry is another receiver who could be on the verge of a breakout season if he can get consistent QB play. Culpepper appears to be the starter in which he should be highly motivated to show the Dolphins they made a mistake by letting him go in favor of Trent Green.

Joey Galloway @CAR: Garcia and Galloway have been the leaders for this Bucs Offense this season and appear to have a good connection. Galloway usually saves his best games for division opponents.

Wes Welker @CIN: To say the Bengals Defense has been bad this year would be an understatement. Brady spreads the ball around but there should be enough looks for Welker to have a score with around 100 yards.

Derrick Mason @CLE: The Browns have one of the worst pass defense's in the league. Mason should be able to beat the Browns secondary for a big day.

Weak WR Plays

Deion Branch @SF: Branch will be going up against shut down corner Nate Clements who has done wonders the 49ers Defense this season. Avoid Branch if you have other options.

Lee Evans @NE: Of all the bust so far this season, Evans has to be up there. Facing the Patriots this week with a first time starting rookie QB, Evans should continue to disapoint.

dirt:

you should just play your entire packer backfield!!!

Alan Lane:

Joe,

With Green hurt, What about the Ron Dayne vs Atlanta? Ron should get at least 20 touches with a touchdown or two.

Joe:

Vincent Jackson sucks
