    Players to Watch:
    Pittsburgh (DEF)
    Favre did bad with the Bengals, but what about the Steelers?

    T. Gonzalez (TE - KC)
    As long as Trent looks in his direction, expect some points.

    J. Jerevicious (WR - SEA)
    If Alexander doesn't get the TD's, he will.

    T. Duckett (RB - ATL)
    Miami's defense is known to give up goal line runs.

    T. Heap (TE - BAL)
    He is the only thing good in the Baltimore offense.

    Rookies:
    H. Miller (TE - PIT)
    Expect at least one TD pass.

    Stay Away From:
    C. Williams (RB - TB)
    He had a really bad game after an injury, and now he's going against the Panthers defense.

    T. Houshmenzadeh (WR - CIN)
    Going against a great CB duo.

    A. Hakim (WR - NO)
    Horn is back.

    B. Franks (TE - GB)
    If you are desperate, he's an adequate matchup.

    J. Cortez (K - PHI)
    Akers is back so he's good only for kickoffs.

    Sleepers:
    B. Roethlisberger (QB - PIT)
    Injury

    T. Owens (WR - PHI)
    Injury

    Hot Streak:
    J. Plummer (QB - DEN)
    I'm surprised he did so well against the Eagles.

    FFL Leaders:
    J. Feely (K - NYG)
    Go up against San Francisco = POINTS!

    Don't Worry:
    D. McNabb (QB - PHI)
    Depends if Owens is on the field.

    I don't get that.

    How is Big Ben a sleeper? He's not going to play. Owens is probably not going to play as well. So how are they sleepers...

    I'm still lost. Sleeper for the Week. So you consider Big Ben and TO sleepers for the week. Even with Big Ben NOT playing and TO stating he doesn't think he'll be playing.

    yea if they arent playing then how can they be sleepers this week, if someone plays them then they will get 0 fantasy points. Plus if Big Ben or TO were playing i dont think they would be sleepers.

    anyway TO is suspended so he definatly wont be playing and Big Ben is already said to be out

    maybe u dont understand what a sleeper means its means someone you dont expect to do well does well. Such as if Jamal Lewis did good this week (which he wont) he'll be a sleeper considering no one is expecting him to do well
