Predictions for Week 9

Start

All your Broncos & Dolphins
- Expect a 60+ pts game. Included in this pick, Eddie Royal, Brandon Stokley & Tony Scheffler (if they are active), Chad Pennington, Anthony Fasano, Ricky Williams

Gus Frerotte
- Has the Texans improved so much to the point that they are a 4-game win streak team? No
- Can the Vikings win without Gus having at least a decent passing game? No
- Is Gus then a valid option for teams with Rivers, Brees, or Delhomme? Yes

Kevin Curtis
- Seahawks secondary has allowed 11 passing TDs, while only getting 2 INTs

Devin Hester
- Lions secondary has allowed most points to WRs

Torry Holt
- This is the last time I'd endorse Holt. If he still cant pull it off playing the Cardinals secondary that has given up most TDs to WR, then he's probably no longer worthy of a spot in your fantasy roster

Michael Turner
- Falcons wont be able to throw a lot (see Matt Ryan & Roddy White below)
- Raiders DEF has allowed 144 rushing ypg and 11 TDs

Chad Johnson
- Gut call
- Probably the only time he'll be on this list

Sleeper of the week: Steve Smith Giants


Sit

Jason Witten
- Fractured rib. They are not risking it with Romo. They will not risk it with Witten
- Even if he's active, he'll be playing the Giants DEF, which has only allowed 1 TD and less than 200 receiving yds to TE

Matt Ryan & Roddy White
- Starting LT, Sam Baker is out. Roddy will call Nnamdi Big Papi after the game is over

Ryan Grant
- Playing away, Grant is only averaging 43 rushing ypg and 2.1 ypc with no TD

Marshawn Lynch
- Jets DEF is rock solid against the run, allowing 83 rushing ypg and 3.2 ypc
- Fred Jackson is taking carries away

Matt Schaub
- Playing away, Schaub has 75 QB rating, 4 TDs to 5 INTs in 3 games
- Kevin & Pat Williams will register as many sacks as humanly possible before they get suspended

Sure win: Vikings
Upset: Bengals (second time a charm)

Bold prediction of the week: Bucs DEF to allow its first rushing TD of the season. Tyler Thigpen, 5 yard run draw play
