Quarterbacks

    1. 1
    2. PeytonManningBroncos at ColtsQB
    3. PASS YDS384
    4. PASS TD4
    5. INT0
    6. RUSH YDS0
    7. RUSH TD0
    If anyone could treat a game against the team for which he played for 13 years as just another game, it's Manning. Something tells me he might have a little something extra, though.
    1. 2
    2. TonyRomoCowboys at EaglesQB
    3. PASS YDS342
    4. PASS TD4
    5. INT1
    6. RUSH YDS0
    7. RUSH TD0
    Going up against the hapless Redskins, Romo severely disappointed his fantasy owners last week. He'll make up for it against the Eagles.
    1. 3
    2. JayCutlerBears at RedskinsQB
    3. PASS YDS339
    4. PASS TD3
    5. INT1
    6. RUSH YDS15
    7. RUSH TD0
    Cutler missed some throws against the Giants, but his owners are happy. This matchup is too good to pass up, too.

Running Backs

    1. 1
    2. JamaalCharlesChiefs vs TexansRB
    3. RUSH YDS106
    4. RUSH TD2
    5. REC YDS57
    6. REC TD0
    I'm running out of things to say about Charles, and it's just Week 7. Houston is allowing 4.2 yards per carry this year, making Charles a solid bet to top 100 yards.
    1. 2
    2. AdrianPetersonVikings at GiantsRB
    3. RUSH YDS136
    4. RUSH TD2
    5. REC YDS25
    6. REC TD0
    The Giants allow 19.1 fantasy points per game to running backs. Peterson will increase that average on Monday night.
    1. 3
    2. LeSeanMcCoyEagles vs CowboysRB
    3. RUSH YDS115
    4. RUSH TD2
    5. REC YDS45
    6. REC TD0
    McCoy totaled 171 yards from scrimmage last week, while the Cowboys allowed the Redskins to run for more than 200 yards. He should have a huge day.

Wide Receivers

    1. 1
    2. DezBryantCowboys at EaglesWR
    3. REC YDS124
    4. REC TD2
    Bryant should make up for last week's game against a Philadelphia defense that is the league's worst against wide receivers in fantasy terms.
    1. 2
    2. DeSeanJacksonEagles vs CowboysWR
    3. REC YDS103
    4. REC TD2
    Jackson didn't skip a beat with Nick Foles at the helm, catching six passes for 64 yards and two TDs. Dallas allows 24.8 fantasy points per game to wide receivers.
    1. 3
    2. JustinBlackmonJaguars vs ChargersWR
    3. REC YDS138
    4. REC TD1
    In two games this year, Blackmon has 19 catches for 326 yards and a TD. He racked up an insane 20 targets last week. He's a true WR1.

Tight Ends

    1. 1
    2. TonyGonzalezFalcons vs BuccaneersTE
    3. REC YDS87
    4. REC TD2
    Gonzalez stands to benefit from Julio Jones injury in the form of more targets. I'm sliding him up my rest-of-season rankings a few notches.
    1. 2
    2. JasonWittenCowboys at EaglesTE
    3. REC YDS98
    4. REC TD1
    Witten caught three passes for 27 yards in a lackluster performance for the entire passing game. Philadelphia has been tough on tight ends this year, but you're starting Witten no matter what.
    1. 3
    2. VernonDavis49ers at TitansTE
    3. REC YDS87
    4. REC TD1
    Davis was a beast last week, catching eight passes for 180 yards and two TDs. He could see a lot of corner Alterraun Verner, who Pro Football Focus grades as the best corner in the league thus far.

Kickers

    1. 1
    2. CalebSturgisDolphins vs BillsK
    3. PAT2
    4. FG4
    Sturgis is 10-for-11 on field goals this year, including three from 50-plus. He should be started every week from here on out.
    1. 2
    2. JustinTuckerRavens at SteelersK
    3. PAT1
    4. FG4
    Tucker made his only field goal last week, a chippy from 23 yards. He's 12-for-14 this season.
    1. 3
    2. StevenHauschkaSeahawks at CardinalsK
    3. PAT2
    4. FG3
    After two weeks of double-digit scoring, Hauschka made just two field goals last week, both after he passed concussion tests.

Defenses

    1. 1
    2. Chiefsvs TexansChiefs vs TexansDEFENSE
    3. PTS ALLOWED10
    4. SACKS5
    5. INT3
    6. TD0
    The Chiefs absolutely dominated the Raiders, posting 10 sacks, three interceptions and a touchdown. They could make T.J. Yates' life rough.
    1. 2
    2. 49ersat Titans49ers at TitansDEFENSE
    3. PTS ALLOWED3
    4. SACKS5
    5. INT3
    6. TD0
    Remember a few weeks ago when people thought this defense maybe wasn't what it was the last two years? I think we can put that notion to bed. Start the Niners with extreme confidence this week.
    1. 3
    2. Dolphinsvs BillsDolphins vs BillsDEFENSE
    3. PTS ALLOWED6
    4. SACKS5
    5. INT2
    6. TD0
    I love this matchup for Miami coming off a bye. If they're available in your league, get them now.
