STUDS, DUDS, AND SLEEPERS
STUDS
RB Ray Rice (Bal) Cleveland's defense will have no chance of stopping Rice on the ground OR in the passing game. I expect at least over 150 total yards of offense for the second year RB from Rutgers.
WR Wes Welker (NE) Randy Moss should have a big day too, but in what I think will be an offensive shootout in Indy, Tom Brady will have to pass at least 40 times. Welker should get 10 or more catches and at least 100 yards.
WR Percy Harvin (Minn) The speedy rookie should have a big day against a slow Detroit defensive backfield. Could have another KR score to boot.
DST Dallas Cowboys If your scoring system takes sacks into account, this is almost a must-start with Green Bay's meek pass protection. DeMarcus Ware also a definitve start as an IDP.
DUDS
WR Mike Sims-Walker (Jac) Jets and CB Darrell Revis pretty good at shutting down opposing #1 WRs. QB David Garrard pretty good at NOT finding his WRs on the road.
RB Julius Jones (Sea) This is the week the Arizona Cardinals will actually look dominant at home. They'll get off to a fast start, making Jones virtually useless in the second half.
QB Josh Freeman (TB) Last week the rookie looked good, but was aided by a opportunistic Tampa D. This week his learning curve gets quite a bit steeper against the Dolphins.
SLEEPERS
TE Brandon Pettigrew (Det) The Vikings are suprisingly the worst in the league at defending against the tight end. The Detroit rookie finally started getting some looks last week in Seattle with 7 catches for 70 yards and a TD. Expect more of the same this week.
WR Chaz Schilens (Oak) Raiders need a boost in the passing game and his hands can provide it. Chiefs pass defense among the worst in the league. Could have a nice welcome back game.
DST Kansas City On the other hand, Raider QB Jamarcus Russell very sloppy with the ball and could turn it over three or four times, giving Chief defenders gift TDs.

IFFL UPDATE
With a big 102-47 win over the West Virginia Dolphins I vaulted into first place in the Glory Division thanks to the Pennsylvania PimpDaddies upsetting the Green Bay Dynasty. My last three games have been huge point scorers and have allowed me to catch up after being way behind early on.
| Glory Division | W | L | PS |
| Miami Waves | 7 | 2 | 617 |
| Green Bay Dyansty | 7 | 2 | 574 |
| West Virginia Dolphins | 6 | 3 | 575 |
| Buckete Wrecking Crew | 6 | 3 | 540 |
| Pennsylvania PimpDaddies | 4 | 5 | 623 |
Up this week are the 3-6 Delaware Enforcers, who have QB Tom Brady, RB Pierre Thomas, WR Marques Colston, and WR Wes Welker as it's main weapons. My lineup will look like this:
| TMQB | Dallas (Tony Romo) | @ Green Bay |
| RB | Chris Johnson (Tenn) | vs. Buffalo |
| WR | Randy Moss (NE) | @ Indianapolis |
| WR | Devin Hester (Chic) | @ San Francisco |
| WR | DeSean Jackson (Phil) | @ San Diego |
| WR | Chad Ochocinco (Cin) | @ Pittsburgh |
| PK | Nick Folk (Dal) | @ Green Bay |
| DST | Denver Broncos | @ Washington |
Since this is Saturday, Devin Hester has already played and knotted me a big goose egg. This doesn't bode well for me. If Brady hooks up with Welker a lot and not Randy Moss, I could be in big trouble.
