[My Take]
More football news and happenings from around the league; here’s the latest I am hearing, reading, and following with my take on things and how they will impact the coming fantasy week……
Player Notes From Across My Wire...
Forsett injured in practice….
With Julius Jones returning to action this is really not good news for fantasy owners. Forsett was starting to look like a fantasy gem and head coach Jim Mora had every intention of staying with the hot hand, but now it looks like Jones will see even more action on Sunday. Owners need to eye the injury reports prior to kick-off with this one.
Brown is the color of the day in Houston….
When the season began in Houston it was supposed to be all about running back Steve Slaton. That was before the 2nd year back developed a case of fumble-itus. With Slaton having issues the Texans have had to rotate their backs into the lineup. Moats had his run earlier this season and now after a 56-yard effort last week it will be Chris Browns turn. With Slaton turning up on this week's injury report and not expected to play, Brown looks like the favorite to start Sunday.
Moreno on the rise in Denver….
There was a reason that head coach chose rookie running back Knowshon Moreno with the 12th overall pick in the 2009 NFL draft. The Broncos have exeperienced quite the up and down season, but one constant has been the running of Moreno who keeps getting better. In his last three games Moreno is averaging nearly 90 yards on the ground. With a suspect Chiefs run defense allowing over 130 yards on the ground up next, Sunday could be a big day for the rookie
Kenny Britt: The Rookie has arrived….
After rattling off five straight wins now, the Titans have suddenly emerged as wild card contenders albeit long shots, but nonetheless. With the team now on the rise, suddenly rookie receiver Kenny Britt has become more than just relevant. In the rookie last outing he caught seven passes for 128 yards, including the game winning touchdown. Britt is seeing more passes in his direction (22 in his last three games) and his production is on the rise; 11 receptions and two scores in his last two starts.
