The Good, the bad and the ugly

PUMPS

Aaron Rodgers:
Well, Rodgers managed to pretty well toast the TEN defense. He took them for their first 300 yard aerial game allowed this year. Although he didnt get that second TD I was looking for he made up for it with and extra 60 yards. 

WINNER

Jerricho Cotcherry: Cotcherry led the Jets in receiving this week....unfortunately he only managed to put up six receptions for 62 yards and 0 TDs. Favre played very hesitantly this week, and it hurt the statistics of everyone on the Jets offense. The Bills managed to slow him down without their star DE Schobel, so this doesn't portend well for Favre. Still, the numbers weren't there for me. 

LOSER

Michael Turner: Yep he can still beat the hell out of mediocre defenses. Turner had 139 rushing yards against the Raiders this weekend. 

WINNER

Trent Edwards: Edwards didn't quite put up the numbers i was looking for, and he threw multiple picks which is rare for the accurate youngster. He did managed to squeek out 290 yards, 1 TD and 2 INT's, which is still a pretty good fantasy day (14.5 points in normal formats). 

WINNER

DUMPS

Ryan Grant: Good thing the Packers gave grant 20 carries, otherwise he might not have been able to achieve his stellar 86 yards this weekend. He did manage decent RB3 production, which makes my prediction wrong. 

LOSER

Joseph Addai: Well Addai managed to make even my dire predictions look rosy. He had 17 carries and produced 32 yards (and added 10 receiving) for a pathetic 1.8 YPC. Way to play down the level I know you are capable of Addai!

WINNER

Dwayne Bowe: The Chiefs marched down the field on their first possession and Bowe scored a TD. Right then and there my prediction was shot.....even though he only caught one other ball the entire game. 2 receptions, 29 yards, 1 TD for Bowe - Tyler Thigpen had a better day as a receiver. But numbers don't lie and I missed his TD this week. 

LOSER

Tony Scheffler: Scheffler was more limited than the Broncos let on and he did not play this week. 

WINNER
