Well, since I didn't have any players on my list playing in the Monday Night Football game, I'm going to go ahead and sum it all up. Here we go...
Cam Newton (23/31): Is it possible to be too right? I know I wasn't going out on too much of a limb here, but still... If for some unknown reason this guy is still available in your league, you miiiight want to snatch him up. I don't think the 20+ point performances are going anywhere anytime soon.
Michael Vick (25/29): This pick was a toss up. I think it's safe to say as long as Vick stays on the field, he's going to put up big numbers. The problem through the first few weeks has been one of durability, not skill. I think the Andy Reed is going to put some work in on the O line this week. Only time will tell if it helps.
Tim Hightower (19/2): Ryan Torrain stole the show. What else is there to really say? I wasn't wrong about the position, just the player. It will be interesting to see what the Skins do with the backfield in the weeks to come but for now, I'm guessing Hightower has lost the starting job.
Chris Johnson (18/10): Johnson was a touchdown away from putting up what most would call "a big week". He ran for over 100 yards for the first time this year and the sky is the limit moving forward for this guy. I told you so.
Matt Ryan (19/17): Ryan's stock is rising. As the Falcons improve week to week, I think his numbers will continue to be starter worthy. Slow start, but pleeenty of upside here, folks.
Tony Romo (10/19): Romo had a decent week fantasy wise, but it could have been so much better. He threw 3 picks in the second half and it remains to be seen how much confidence he has going forward. On the upside, he has a buy week ahead to straighten things out and a healthy Miles Austin should be waiting for him on the other side.
Jets Defense (1/21): Even though the Jets allowed a less than stellar 34 points, most of that cam against their offense... While the Jets managed to rack up point on defense as well. This led to a confusing "when will the defense be back on the field so we can score" type of game.
Arian Foster (9/22): I guess he's back. I didn't want to be too optimistic until he came back and played a full game (hamstring injuries and incredibly nagging) but after 60 minutes of 2010 style Foster, I think all his owners get breathe again.
Patriots Defense (-1/-2): Yea, they just don't have it this year. They are lacking a pay maker on defense and have few threats in the return game. I don't see much upside for these guys anytime soon.
Mark Ingram (8/5): For about a week, it looked like Ingram might be set to really take hold of the backfield in NO. Now... not so much. Sproles is ranked 10th in the league and doesn't show any signs of slowing down. Ingram might have value later on this season if Sproles starts to slow down but this is a gamble at best.
