Bench’em–Matt Stafford-Without his main receiving threat, Stafford is not a great play on the road. For the owners who drafted him as a top 5 QB(me included), it has been a disappointing FF season so far.
Trust’em- Rivers-Last year was the real-deal, and he is doing it again. Rivers has rewarded owners who waited until the later rounds with top 3 QB production.
Bust of the week–Cam Newton –He was decent last week, but the Bengals are coming off of a nationally televised thumping to the Patriots, their defense at home is going to step their game up.
Surprise of the week–ARI QB- whoever starts between Stanton/Palmer will enjoy the flaws in the Redskins secondary.
RB
Bench’em– Any running backs from the following teams-CAR, JAX, TB, OAK, STL, NYJ. These teams are either rotating backs with unpredictability, or will fall behind in their match-ups early, and provide little production for owners.
Trust’em– B. Tate (vs Pitt), Oliver (at OAK), Williams (at PHI), Forsett (BAL), F. Jackson (vs NE). Oliver looked really good last week, and with Brown looking marginal and sustaining a concussion, Woodhead out for the season and Matthews injury history, the Chargers could be highly dependent on this rookie for the rest of the 2014 season.
Bust of the week–R. Hillman (at NYJ)- One of the biggest waiver wire names to be signed this week after the groin injury by Ball, Hillman may rack up 66-70 total yards, but the Broncos will be scoring via the pass this week.
Surprise of the week–Shane Vereen (at BUFF)- Where has this guy gone? Drafted by most as a RB2, he has been a no show for the most part this season, which thanks to the guy calling the shots in New England, is going to be a headache all season long. I like Vereen this week to be used heavily out of the backfield, 8 receptions for 70 yards, 115 total yards and a score.
WR
Bench’em- C. Patterson (vs DET), K. Benjamin (at CINCY), T. Williams (at SEA). One of these three could have a big play for a score, but they are all facing teams coming off a loss or in the case of T. Williams, heading on the road, and visiting the loudest and most difficult stadium in the entire league.
Trust’em- Larry Fitzgerald (vs WASH), M. Sanu (vs CAR), Eddie Royal (at OAK), J. Hunter (vs JAX)
Bust of the week–Pierre Garcon (at ARI)-still with only one great game this season (vs Philly), he has the talent, but facing a tough secondary that was embarrassed in Denver last week.
Surprise of the week–Alshon Jeffrey (at ATL) – he has yet to have one of those monster games that moved his 2014 draft position into the top 10. With Marshall nursing an injury that will probably bother him throughout the remainder of the season, I like Jeffrey to step up with a 10 catch performance on the quick turf surface in Atlanta.
TE
Bench’em- Clay (vs GB), Witten (at SEA), Cook (vs SF)- All three mentioned will be used to help block with the pass rush coming at their QB.
Trust’em– Gates (at OAK), Paul (at ARI), Walker (vs JAX)- Nice match-ups across the board, as tight-ends late to undrafted this FF season, continue to provide value on almost a weekly basis.
Bust of the week– Gronkowski (at BUFF)- He has a big game last week, which should equate to him being marginal this week.
Surprise of the week–Eric Ebron (at MINN)- Breakout time for the rookie, he will show why the Lions took him so high in the first round.
DEF/ST
TENN will turn in a top 10 finish this week.
Dallas looking more and more like the team to beat in the NFC East.
Still early in the game though.
We will see how tonight plays out.
As I stated 2 weeks ago TS…
The Cowboys are the most physical Offensive Team in the NFC East
and swarm to the ball of Defense with a bunch if young Players trying to make a name for themselves..
Smartest move for them was relegating Bill
Callahan to strictly be the OL Coach, which he’s one of the best
And bring in Scott Linehan to work with Romo
Whether they go on to win or lose to Seahawks, they are Team to be reckoned with down the stretch, barring injuries
Plenty of time TS ..cards having there hands full of desean (went to house on a slant) and perhaps the NFC west ain’t all that …The birds will have to answer the call ..starts up front ,pressure eli and he will turn it over ..I look for graham and curry to have there way
Yeah I saw that DJax play.
Kirk Cousins is thanking his lucky stars he’s a Redskin right now. lol.
You’re right, it’s def early in the Cowboys game, but if they win Ealges def need to step it up tonight.
I cheered on that Djax play….then I remembered he was a redskin. Damn I miss those plays….Damn I miss those days!…I bet Foles does too!
I’m out here in az …hoping and praying ..birds do so ..I truly don’t think the G men are all that …I do see the offensive line being a force in the dallas game …they are winning that battle
Dallas is always the team to beat until November & December roll around. They’ll find a way to get to 8-8…
It’s a pattern of jerry jones face ,being frozen in a frown as the thermometer drops..for sure …Dallas special teams ,playing like shit …desean has beaten cards secondary (been shit all year ) for two touches 106 and a td ..the nfl won’t take shape until the turkey is passed around the table ..
Hoping the birds are the most appealing with all there guys back by then
Sherman doing pretty well on Bryant. That’s no easy task.
Demeco a go..nfl network that’s the first positive..now give me Thalia shire …WIN
Dallas hate to say hats off ..to em today ..very impressive showing ,and with turnovers to still lead late at Seattle ..eagles and giants best get A games ..starting tonight ..because there may be a sherif battle in town ..GO BIRDS keep the barest high here and exceed it at home ..
Dallas is good. Their o line is scary. Starting tackle goes out and his replacement pancakes a guy on the first play.
I hate to say it….but Dallas is looking good. I need Russell Wilson to work some magic here against a staunch cowboy defense, I can’t stomach a cowbum win.
Does anyone sense a coming out party
Tonight for Giants Rookie WR Odell Beckham
Eagles better put Boykin or Carroll on him
I could care less about ODB. Every wr has a coming out party against our starting two cb’s this year.
does anyone sense pman hyping another player on the opposite team fuck up shit thrower
Dallas is finally playing to its talent level. They’ve been injury free. And giving the ball to Murray and keeping it out of Romos hands 30-40x a game.
Key for them is injuries and their brutal schedule at the end of the year.
Schedule brutal for the NFC East down the stretch. It’s a nail biter ’till the end.
I hate to say it, but…Dallas is good.
Their D would eat our O’s lunch if they played right now. Those guys aren’t fucking around.
Dallas defense laid the blue print on stopping Russell Wilson lead offense and their offense showed how to beat their defense.,,,in their house. Russell Wilson just did his Nick Foles impersonation.
How you beat the Seahawks has been out. It’s no secret.
Teams just haven’t been able to d it with any consistency. It was less about Seahawks sucking and more about Dallas balling the fuck out.
Not at home so much…on the road yes, not at home though.
That’s game.
Eagles better come to play.
I need to wash this Dallas fucking win …out o my mouth..squash and dominate in black …the lore will be forever the black n blew game ..to go 5-1 to keep pace with the cowgirls..that win ,just raised it up a notch,and it was off the charts before that …I’m stoked
Giants and Eagles schedules are brutal through next 6. Dallas has brutal Nov through December stretch.
In the end it will all be up to Romo when it matters
Yeah..but barring just major eli-esque meltdown they are winning more than 8 games this year, which puts them in the thick of the divisional race.
Giants lose tonight they be below .500 by turkey day. All this Giants hype is sickening to me…and yes I am bias I can’t stand them. Respect the organization though.
Two teams are coming out of the east. The South is done and the North and West will eat each other alive.
North and West is brutal. TAHT’S gonna be a fun one to watch.
South coming down to Carolina and Saints.
If game holds Desean will have two more touchdowns than wins..I sense a homecoming ala trotter ?
deserteagle… that would boost offensive explosiveness!
Eagles all black uniforms look sleek! Hope they christen the unis with a win.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder ……a lot of history B.Mitch..trot…desean?
As we have learned it’s how you’re balling November and December, stay above .500 first half of the year ball down the stretch.
You spring and summer Redskins hype beasts lol they are DONE.
Division winner….lmao
Desean time for wash..29 sec down 3
Pick 6 game
Foles type sightings all over the league..more picks than a gold miners convention..
I look for Celek & Sproles to have big Games
Tonight.. Go Eagles who will have to play their best and most complete
Game tonight to WIn…
Player of the game ….Jordan Matthews.
Hate stalling in the red zone ,but a nice drive..now special teams and..dee..so much a field position game changer Parkey..c’mon d Ball
I didn’t like they 2nd down Call for the Sweep Left,
That’s just too slow of a developing running play to call when in the. Red Zone where LB and Secondary Defenders are all playing closer to the live if Scrimmage.. It’s not a bad play design, but just not the right place on the field to run wide..
Ha…little eli sighting
McCoy looks great and determined out of the gate and isn’t dancing around, getting the ball and hitting the hole quickly.. He just needs to protect the ball
What a Pass by Foles & Catch by Ertz…
Thing of Beauty right there.. Go Eagles..
Ertz is a luxury (is there such a thing in the nfl?) and Johnson is a reach…lol
Don’t get GMCliff all excited now HAC
He needs his rest..
Eagles need to Keep Blitzing up the Middle and pinpoint
rG John Jerry and Center JD Walton
Who are struggling in pass-blocking..
LB’s Barwin & Cole are playing like their possessed so far..
Keep Blitzing..
Eagles vs Dallas for the East.
Should be good times.
lol
Giants look like the keystone cops out there.
Sproles almost breaks one..
Looks like he ran into Malcolm Jenkins,
A cut to the left one stride sooner, he was gone
Giants dodged a bullet with Foles overthrow to a wife open Ertz
And then settled for a FG to go up 20-0
Game is not over .. Lots of time left
Stop Giants from Scoring before the half here.
Giants get ball to start the 2nd Half..
A huge Series either way right here before the Half
Where are the sky is falling crowd?
no where to be found hac they only come out if we lose
Terrible play by Foles..
Eagles D needs to pick him up..
I have not seen an interception that bad since …damn I do not even know. Wtf Nick.
Lol you didn’t watch the Redskins game then EHL…
Yeah…I did see a couple of cousins picks straight to Johnson …they were brutal
d backs playing very well thus far.
Jaylen Watkins tattooed ODB. That is his coming out party.
A pass rush hides many ills.
For the 1st half Bill Davis had a helluva plan.
Nick turning the damn ball over again. That is how the rams came back last week.
Terrible Play by Foles again..
He’s kept the Giants in this Game and in fact,
The momentum has swung to the Giants.
Nice stand and a break with Giants Penalty negating a TD and then Cruz tripping who was open for a TD on the 4th Down
Not to change gears, but the Field at the Linc looks like shit and Players have been losing their footing all game long on both side what’s the deal..
Too much play on it with Temple or High Schools or Concerts, etc…
This needs to be addressed .. The Sod or Turf Surface looks real loose
A great Block by Center Dave Molk
On Sproles TD Run .. Check the highlight
OL has played very well tonight in the running game
And in Pass Protection also…
Paulman don’t Mush us….keep it for the Giants….
Nice stand by the Defense
Even a Marcus Smith II sighting
This should be Foles,McCoy,Maclin & Peters, Celek
final Series Of the Game..
Get Sanchez, Huff, Gardner, Casey some work and rest up
The Starters.. This Game is over..
This is why you need to have 3 Healthy RB’s for every Game
It was no secret that Polk was going to GD out for a while after missing
Most of the Season.. Tucker should have been
The 3rd RB to Start the Season and Polk placed on short-term IR
As I stated many times when Roster was announced
Early word is MCL Tear on Sproles Left Knee and will need 3-4 Weeks
At minimum.. Shame for he’s been the Eagles MVP thru the first 6 Weeks
Of the Season…
Pman….where are you getting this info on Sproles? I have four sources of info and none of them has that info.
He made it up
Making shit up like that is not cool….at all !
You’ll hear or read it in the morning unfortunately..
Stop lying Paulman…. you’re just jumping the gun so you can pat yourself on the back.
Come on man you’re better than that. That’s pathetic.
Lol where did you hear that lie?
Come on man. …stop
