Week 12 Fantasy Numbers

This week there are plenty of evenly matched teams up against each other, but there are also the teams that are highly favored. These highly favored teams are where the fantasy numbers will be high so look for Tampa Bay players to excell along with Buffalo and Denver players. Of course there will be the evenly matched games that have players performing at a high level but the three leaders this week will be:

QB: This weeks top performing quarterback will be Jay Cutler who is up against the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders have the 23rd ranked defense and Jay Cutler has been playing great football this year with 2832 yards and 19 touchdowns. Cutler will have a great week this week playing at home with 330 yards and 3 touchdowns.

RB: This weeks top performing running back will be Clinton Portis. Portis is up against the porus Seattle defense and will be the main character in Washington's offense this week. Portis will have a great game with 120 yards and 2 touchdowns, but also look for Matt Forte to perform well. He is up against the 29th ranked rush defense in the St.Louis Rams and will have a great week.

WR: Although Cutler will be throwing all over the Oakland defense, the top reciever this week will be in New Orleans. Greg Jennings will be visiting the New Orleans Saint's 26th ranked pass defense and Aaron Rodgers will feed Jennings the ball throughout the night. This matchup on monday night will be a great one and look for Jennings to step up in the spotlight. Jennings, 103 yards and 2 touchdowns.


Injury Notes:

-WR, Plaxico Burress is expected to play after having problems with his hamstring.
-RB, Clinton Portis is expected to play after his knee injury has slowed him down.
-RB, Brian Westbrook will play against Baltimore this week after his knee problems.
-WR, Laverneus Coles will play in Tennessee this week after thigh problems. Coles is a key part to the offense and will contribute greatly in abrogating the Titans undefeated record this week.
