Justin here with my week 4 installment of invaluable fantasy football knowledge. Ok so I only hit on 50% of my picks in this column last week, but this week will be better.
START 'EM
Matt Schaub, QB, Texans. He returns to Atlanta where the sound of the Falcons' front office staff smacking themselves in the forehead can still be heard. Oh, and the Falcons are really bad.
Marshawn Lynch, RB, Bills. That's 2 straight moving from the previous week's Sit 'Em to this week's Start 'Em. The Bills have a tradition of tearing up the Jets with the run game. Willis McGahee had only two 100 yard rushing games last season. Guess who they were against.
Colts Defense. The game is in the dome. Peyton Manning owns the Broncos. Jay Cutler has a bum ankle.
John Kitna, QB, Lions. Had a 446 yard passing day on the road last week in a loss. Now the Lions come home and face a Bears defense that clearly isn't as good as it was a year ago.
Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Steelers. This could be a high-scoring affair. Mike Tomlin knows Ken Whisenhunt and Russ Grimm want to win this game in the worst way. He'll be ready.
SIT 'EM
Lee Evans, WR, Bills. The dude has 5 catches for less than 30 yards through THREE GAMES! Average that out and you get the stats of a typical 3rd string tight end.
Marc Bulger, QB, Rams. As if his play thus far wasn't enough for you to make this decision yourself, he's now without Steven Jackson. Oh, and he's playing the best team in the NFC...on the road.
Jamal Lewis, RB, Browns. This is a tempting start because you know he really wants to stick it to the Ravens, but I'd use him only if you start a 3rd RB or a flex player.
Edgerrin James, RB, Cardinals. Second straight tough defense to face. Second straight week on the Sit 'Em list. I can't believe there's actually people who get paid money to write columns like this.
Rudi Johnson, RB, Bengals. His hammie is hurting. Plus the Bengals figure to do a lot of throwing because A) They're the Bengals, B) They're going against the so-crazy-good-it's-disgusting Patriots, C) By virtue of reason B, they will be playing from behind.
Until next week...
