The future first ballot Hall of Famer failed to reach 300 yards for only the second time this season, going 22-of-31 for 299 yards with 1 TD and 2 INT against the Ravens in the Colts' hard fought two-point win. He's first overall in completions and yardage, second in TD passes -- the best player in the league and a must-start this and every other week.
Addai had 19 carries for 74 yards and a TD and 1 catches for 7 yards. He also had an ankle-breaking juke on Ray Lewis that will be shown on highlights all year. He's been responsible for 11 touchdowns this year (7 rushing, 3 receiving, 1 passing). He's a No. 2 fantasy RB, especially with Don Brown hurting and ineffective with a shoulder.
The best WR in the league complements the best QB in the league quite well. Wayne had just 7 catches for 89 yards against Baltimore the week after catching 10 balls for 126 yards and 2 TD against the Pats. Wayne's form is impeccable, putting up great numbers week in and week out. He's gotten into the end zone in seven of 10 games and ranks first in the league in yards and second in receptions and TD catches. Must start.
'Garcon! I'll take my first 100-yard game as a pro please.' With a 6-catch, 108-yard game against the Ravens, Garcon added another notch to his breakout belt. Lucky Pierre, made so much more valuable by his all-world QB, and injury to Colts No. 2 Anthony Gonzalez, is a No. 3 fantasy WR who could score any given Sunday.
This Collie was a dog last Sunday, catching just 1 ball for 12 yards against Baltimore. He's been slightly worse than Garcon over the last few weeks, no better than a No. 3 fantasy WR. He is still a starting option because of this offense.
With just 1 catch for 3 yards against the Ravens, Clark 'The Shark' had his worst game of the year. That said, it wasn't a total disaster for fantasy owners as the one catch was a TD. He now has 65 catches for 771 yards (both tops among TEs). He is a must-start each week, the best fantasy TE in the league and shouldn't again lose catches to Tom Santi (his backup who had 6 catches for 80 yards in Baltimore). Clark had 14 catches for 119 yards against Houston in Week 9.
'The Hot' Stover is a replacement for Adam Vinatieri, who hurt his knee and will be out one more week. He was 1-for-1 against Baltimore, and is 7-for-7 with the Colts. He is a good starting option on one of the league's most potent offenses.
'Corn on the' Schaub had an excellent fantasy outing (25-for-39, 305 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT) on MNF. It was his sixth 300-yard game on the year. He's third in the league in yards, fourth in completions and sixth in TDs with 19. Based on performance, Schaub is a good start, a true No. 1 fantasy QB.
Slaton's terrible case of the dropsies cost him his job for a couple of weeks, but it looks like he got it back in time for MNF against Tennessee. He had 5 carries for 21 yards and a team-high 5 catches for 42 yards and a TD. Most important, he didn't put the ball on the ground. He's a decent No. 2 fantasy option with No. 1 upside, tops in the league among RB in TD catches.
Johnson went for 4 catches and 78 yards against the Titans on MNF. He is the third-leading receiver in the league (878 yards) and a must-start week in and week out, especially against a mediocre (18th-ranked) Colts' pass D that got torched by Derrick Mason to the tune of 142 yards last week. He caught 10 balls for 103 yards against the Colts in Week 9.
Walter caught 4 passes for 46 yards against the Titans. He is no more than a low-end No. 3 option, and that's only because of the offense's vast potential and because he's been seeing more balls with Daniels' injury. He might not be a terrible situational replacement because of that.
Oof. What a punch in the junk suffered by the Texans when Owen Daniels tore his ACL against the Bills. Daniels had 40 catches for 519 yards and 5 TDs, statistically one of the top three TEs in the league. 'Elliott' Dreessen has had 3 catches for 38 yards in Daniels' stead. Not good. Do not start.
