Davids daily digest







Eli Manning has had a pretty good 2012 campaign, but it looks to get a lot better in a hurry this Sunday. The Giants will play host to the Washington Redskins on Sunday and fantasy owners have to be loving this matchup. The Redskins are ranked dead last in the league against the pass and have allowed a league high 15 passing touchdowns. It looks like it could be a big day for Eli.

Good news for Darren McFadden owners, the Raiders appear to be determined to get their playmaker involved. In week 6 Run-DMC finished his game with 30 touches for 98 total yards of offense and with the Jaguars 30th ranked run defense next on their schedule McFadden figures to be busy once again. The Jags allow more than 160 yards rushing per game and have allowed 7 rushing touchdowns this season. It’s a good bet McFadden visits the end-zone on Sunday, at least once.

The Buccaneers offense awoke from its’ slumber in week six against the Chiefs scoring 38 points. Quarterback Josh Freeman turned in a big game passing for over 300 yards and tossing two scores. This Sunday he could find similar success against a very shaky Saints defense. The Saints secondary is ranked 26th in the league allowing more than 280 yards in the air with nine passing touchdowns given up. Freeman is on a roll averaging 313 yards passing with three touchdowns in his last two starts; he’s in a groove and could be feeling the funky beat this Sunday against the Saints.

The Bills running back Fred Jackson had his best game a week ago in part-time duty splitting carries with CJ Spiller. Jackson touched the rock 21 times and totaled more than 80 yards with a score. Jackson will be looking to build off that success this week facing the Titans 24th ranked run defense. The Titans allow nearly 130 yards per game and have surrendered 7 rushing touchdowns; Jackson should enjoy considerable success and could make another trip back to pay dirt.
