ASK THE EXPERT QUESTION: Make a prediction for the MIN-GB game.

The remains of Hurricane Neki linger long enough to bring precipitation to Lambeau field. Game time temperatures hover in the high 30’s and snow flurries make this perfect fall football weather for a great match up. Brett Favre is cheered by 45% of the fans; jeered by 45% and 10% will just be there for the moment. Minnesota will try to establish Adrian Peterson and the run with some success. However, Brett will find Visanthe Shiancoe to be his weapon of choice with six catches for 105 yards and two TDs (including one in the 4th quarter to give the Vikes a come from behind win after trailing most of the day). Minnesota gets over their tough loss to Pittsburgh with an even bigger win to division foe GB. Everyone in the media claims before the game that it all has to do with revenge; everyone claims after the game that it had nothing to do with revenge. Only Favre will know. Favre hints in a post-game interview that he might retire next year. Final Score: Vikings 24 Pack 23

Russ Steele powers his way back into 2nd place, with Kip Lockwood, Mike Grimm and David Hubbard making up the rest of our top 5.

Ask the Expert: Which struggling star do you expect to return to greatness

Of all the league's struggling stars -- Matt Forte, Steve Smith, name your own candidate -- which one do you see as most likely to turn things around the rest of the way?


The list is long and distinguished. Some others worthy of contention for the struggling tag include: Tony Romo, C. Portis, B. Westbrook, MB3, B. Edwards
T.O., A. Boldin and Eddie Royal. My turnaround candidate is Clinton Portis. With questions at QB (and Head Coach) Portis may find himself with more opportunities as he tries to carry the team on his shoulders. He is currently 20th for RBs but has started to pull away recently. The remainder of his schedule is medium to tough run defenses. He has the potential for a top 10 finish.

Ask the Experts Question: Which rookie WR will have the best career?

Now that you've seen most of them play some games, which rookie wide receiver do you believe will have the best NFL career? (feel free to name players you haven't seen, e.g. Michael Crabtree)

Since you said career, I think Austin Collie has the brightest future. First his QB is Peyton Manning. Questions-none. He could be Peyton’s Wes Welker. He is not the fastest WR I have ever seen but he seems to always get open. M. Crabtree has to show me something before I put him in this competition.

Do you believe it's OK to bench your studs, or are you against it? Fantasy Index Magazine "Ask the Expert Question of the Week"

Do you believe it's OK to bench your studs, or are you against it?

The answer is it DEPENDS.

In 99 out of 100 cases, NO never bench your studs because they are going to perform for you. Whether it is this week or next week, eventually they will produce and you do not want them on your bench when they go off for 30+ fantasy points.

A better question is what defines your “stud”?
Generally any player drafted in the first two or three rounds in my book. They were drafted high because you knew you could count on them.

So when are the rare instances when you do not start the stud player?
1) Injury issues would be one scenario. If he is questionable or doubtful with a significant injury (and not practicing on Friday is a good sign it is significant) then I would think about benching him. Even if he plays he may be limited.

2) Another case is when something beyond his control will affect him-like weather or a week 17 game where he may be rested for the playoffs. Last year Kurt Warner went to play at NE in week 16 during a snow storm. Swirling winds are not good for a passer He should have been benched even though all the predictions were for a big day.

Mark Sanchez cleans nails on NYJ bench in 4th Qtr? Does this bother anyone else?

First let me start by saying I am high on Mark Sanchez as a future QB. I picked him in my annual Fantasy Football Almanac as the highest ranked rookie QB at #5 overall among all rookies at any position. So that is high praise indeed.

Long term, dynatasy league wise, I like Sanchez over Stafford and J Freeman. Sanchez may look like a pretty boy (see recent NY photo ops) but he appeared to me to not forget his family, heritage or work ethic and coaches/players at USC who made him what he is.

Then I saw the NO-NYJ game Sunday evening.

The Jets are down in the 2nd half by a TD and the camera keeps panning to the NYJ sideline. There sitting by himself is Sanchez…….cleaning his nails. (Or at least that is what it looked like to me through my 42” non High Def TV).
Regardless of what he actually was doing (picking his nose, biting his nails, cleaning his nails, checking his finger prints or creating hand puppets with his working digits) he was not doing anything productive to help the JETS win the game. The cameras panned to him on several occassions and every time he seemed to have a far away glaze on his face and no drive to fix the situation.

What could he have been doing instead you ask?

1) He is NOT LOOKING at photos of the opposing defenses that have just stymied him.

2) He is NOT TALKING to WRs or Offensive linemen or coaches to figure out better play execution.


When I see the likes of Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Tom Brady on the sidelines, they always seem to be doing SOMETHING productive. Like looking at photos or talking to teammates.

The JETS were never more then 2 scores behind and were in fact just a TD away during some of these snap shots. To be fair I am sure the camera just caught him at the wrong time each shot and in between he was working feveriously to right the sinking ship.

Sanchez will be fine.
He had a rough game versus a fired up NO defense.

Nevertheless, for the love of all that is true in Football- do something other then pick your nails on the bench between series.

Fantasy Index "Ask the Expert" Question: Which new starting QB has the most value?

Fantasy Index "Ask the Expert" question: Several teams could be starting new quarterbacks on Sunday -- Miami, St. Louis, Cleveland, TB -- or in the next few weeks (SEA, SF, KC, TEN?). Which quarterback situation, if any, has the most fantasy value?

Yesterday I would have said Chad Henne at Miami has the most fantasy value because his competition is out for the season (Dolphins placed Pennington on IR). However, the fins trade for Tyler Thigpen muddies the water some and may shorten the leash Chad gets. If Hasselbeck misses any more time I like Seneca Wallace because of the quality of WRs and more importantly the O-line. Kyle Boller and Derek Anderson lose points because they will be throwing off their back foot all day due to OL issues.

Questonable
Bulger
Addai
J Stewart
E Graham
S Breatson
Wes Welker
D Avery
K Burton
A Bryant



I think will play but watch out
Jamal Lewis
Eli Manning
Steve Breaston


Not expected to play
K. Curtis
Kevin Boss
Roy Williams
Matt Stafford
Zach Miller OAK TE-concussion?
Felix Jones


OUT:
Mcfadden-2-4 weeks
Gore- one more week then bye
Willie Parker-I do not like this toe injury
C Buckhalter-K Moreno it is your time
Fred Taylor-may be out for season- welcome to NE fragile Fred
