EARTH-SHAKERS! PLAY-MAKERS!
GAME-BREAKERS!


Graham done for the season with ankle injury...
....the Buccaneer's running back suffered ligament damage to his ankle in Week 11 and it appears Graham could be done for the season. With Graham out, the Buc's will turn to running backs Warrick Dunn and Carnell Williams (when he's healthy) to carry the load the rest of the way. Dunn offers some value as a flex option in most leagues, but Williams is a high-risk play until owners can see what he can do.

Jackson already ruled OUT for Week 12...
....with Jackson already ruled out it could be time for fantasy owners to start showing some concern. Reports are Jackson saw a specialist for a second opinion, but the results were the same. Jackson will rest the leg and hopefully can return to action in Week 13. Owners should consider a plan B until we see Jackson back in action.

Schaub not expected back anytime soon...
.....it's being reported that head coach Gary Kubiak admitted that Matt Schaub had suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 8. Schaub could be throwing this week, but it's doubtful he'll be moving around much soon and he's a long shot to return this season. Fantasy owners will need to look elsewhere for help.

Saints sign running back Mike Bell...
.....with Reggie Bush still not 100% and the prospect of losing Deuce McAllister for four games looming the Saints have signed running back Mike Bell according to Scout.com. Bell could see action, but with Bush (returning soon) and Pierre Thomas in the mix the former Bronco is hardly worth any fantasy consideration

McAllister and others could face suspensions soon...
....with the appeals heard today from several NFL players including McAllister regarding league steroid use policies, the league is expected to rule on the matter by some time early next week according to Adam Schefter of the NFL Network. With the Deuce's future in question, fantasy owners look for running back Pierre Thomas to lead the Saints ground game.

Jacobs could miss action in Week 12 with sore knee...
....according to the NY Daily News, there's a chance the team could rest Jacobs in Week 12. The Giant's running back has been sending out mixed signals on the matter, but look to Friday to determine Jacobs' status. If he practices in full, we'd expect to see him play on Sunday, otherwise the team could opt to rest him against the Cardinals.

Brown's Harrison is uncertain for Week 12...
....the Brown's running back suffered a hamstring injury Monday night, but head coach Romeo Crennel is not offering much information other than to say Harrison's status is uncertain. It is not clear if Harrison will see a larger role in the offense, but owners should keep an eye on Wednesday's practice to see his availability.

Williams to play in Week 12 against Lions....
....reports are that the Buc's will start up the Caddy for Week 12 against the Lions. Williams was inactive this past Sunday and will see his first action of the season this Sunday. With Cadillac coming back from a horrific knee injury he suffered a year ago, he remains a very risky play. Owners should wait and see how Williams plays before starting.

Winslow suffers shoulder injury Monday night...
....the Brown's tight end was injured in the team's Monday night win, after landing hard on his shoulder. Winslow was grimacing in pain, but walked off under his own power. Winslow is expected to have an MRI scheduled and his status should be updated Wednesday.

Bill's QB Edwards struggles in Week 11 loss....
....the Bill's quarterback continues to slump throwing three more picks in Week 11. Edwards has thrown 8 picks in his last four starts and as he continues his poor play, the Bills receiving corp will struggle. WR Lee Evans owners should be concerned, with Edwards playing bad, the Bill's receiver has only 63 receiving yards in his last three games.



IDP NEWS...


Chief's DB Surtain could return this Sunday...
....the Chief's cornerback has seen little action this season having missed the previous three game with a quad injury, but could return Sunday to face the Bills. The Chief's defense has struggled this year and Surtain's return could help this young squad improve against a Bill's passing offense that has played poorly of late.

Bailey expected to returned to practice Wednesday...
....the Bronco's are hoping to see the return of cornerback Champ Bailey to practice this Wednesday. Bailey returned to practice on a limited basis last week, but was unable to play. Bailey has usually been a stout IDP start, but owners will need to see Bailey complete a full practice on Friday, before inserting back in the line up.

Pacman hoping to return to the Cowboys...
.....the Cowboys troubled cornerback completed his required alcohol counseling for violating the league's personal conduct policy and will now await for the Commissioner Roger Goodell to rule on his reinstatement. Based on Pacmans history he's likely a long-shot to get reinstated anytime soon.

Chief's LB Edwards looking doubtful for Week 12...
.......the Chief's defense that has been riddled with injuries this season could be without linebacker Donnie Edwards this Sunday. Edwards aggravated a nagging hamstring injury and appears doubtful for Sunday.

PACMAN or RAINMAN as i refer to that idiot.......is delusional.

JJ wants him back, however rainman is an idiot. he has screwed up every chance that he's been given.

he belongs on my NFL felon blog that i do every year.......that's the only NFL he's gonna see anymore.

if they let him back in, what is that telling you?

they fine playings for alot less, yet they let these "hoods" run amok. besides, he's not even that solid of a player. i've seen far better out of others on the Dallas team!
