The Lions are not known for being a stellar run defense, even with Ndamukong Suh lining up. The Eagles running back LeSean McCoy has elevated himself to elite status as a runner and for fantasy owners, it’s about that time to rise again. The Lions have been respectable, but McCoy is too dynamic to be contained and should contribute in both the run and pass game today.

The Texans and Packers could be headed to an old-fashion shootout tonight when they take the field. There’s no question the Packers secondary will be focused on containing wideout Andre Johnson, but I like tight end Owen Daniels to exploit some matchups and have a big game. Daniels has emerged as one of quarterback Matt Schaub’s favorites and leads the team with 33 targets.

With Daniel Thomas sidelined, this could be the week that Dolphins running back Reggie Bush makes believers out of everyone again. Bush is having a decent 2012 campaign, but today’s matchup against the Rams 18th ranked run defense could be the spring board he’s looking for. The Rams allow well over four yards per carry, nearly 120 yards per game, and in five games have surrendered six rushing touchdowns. I like Bush to have a nice game on the ground and look for him to add a couple of grabs to the stat book.
