Deuce Is Loose!

A heartening comeback may be all the reason you need to make a running back switch

Talk about your unlucky numbers. In both of Grant's road games this year he's put up the same sorry stat line: 15 carries, 20 yards, no TDs. Just as troubling, last season's second-half NFC rushing leader (near left) has yet to find his way to the end zone in '08. If he doesn't show improvement this week at home against the Falcons, it's time to cut your losses and ditch one of the biggest disappointments in fantasy football.

VERNON DAVIS
49ers, TE

The physically gifted Davis had yet another underwhelming week, with one catch for 19 yards in a loss to the Saints. No Mike Martz tight end has ever had more than 38 catches or six TDs in a season, and Davis doesn't look as if he'll be the one to break the mold.

SELVIN YOUNG
Broncos, RB

He's Denver's leading rusher, but Young has gotten the ball on a mere 35.6% of Denver's running plays this year, with Andre Hall taking away carries and, even worse, Michael Pittman stealing scores near the goal line.
