1. Marshawn Lynch
Lynch finally cracked 100 yards in a game, added nearly 60 more through the air, and was able to score. Owners can FINALLY rejoice if they continued to start him. He has the schedule to run against, so hopefully this is a sign of good things to come.
2. Ted Ginn, Jr.
He does it all, and it all ends up in the end zone. Pennington is doing well, and Ginn is becoming a regular at the end of his passes. His 40-yard run was a solid start last week, and he should do well against a beaten Pats secondary.
3. Dustin Keller
I know what I said last week, but he's now had two good weeks in a row. Keller is quickly becoming a favorite target over the middle, has soft hands, and can take a hit.
4. Justin Gage
With Collins throwing the football, Gage is his favorite target. He had two big catches this week and is widely available across all formats.
5. Ryan Grant
Welcome back, Ryan! Grant broke through the 100-yard mark and easily back into fantasy relevance. Jackson stole very few of his touches, and he was able to find the end zone for the Packers. He has some decent matchups, and this can only be a good thing for owners.
Fantasy Down
1. Donovan McNabb
Let's forget for a second that the guy didn't know that they had ties in football. McNabb looked awful against a secondary that had been soundly beaten, and a team that is virtually inept. We all expected big things from the Eagles quarterback, and this was a major disappointment.
2. Trent Edwards
Apparently, someone followed Green Day's advice too closely and was woken up when September ended. Edwards threw three costly interceptions last night and is hesitating on every throw he makes. Just not good.
3. Tim Hightower
J.J. Arrington got all the work and the touchdowns. What happened to the guy that had 100 yards just two weeks ago? He's still the better back to own, but he makes a tough start right now.
4. Jake Delhomme
Ugh. His accuracy problems continue to get worse. This has become very much a run-first team, and that's hurting Delhomme's value.
5. Santana Moss
Double ugh. At some point, Jason Campbell is going to realize that he needs Moss involved in this offense in order to succeed. When he does, Moss is going to be in line for big games. Until that point, we have to stop considering him a top fantasy receiver.
