Nor Cal Crushers (4-1) vs. Koko's X-Cats (3-2)
One of the biggest tell all of this matchup is the direct competition of the X-Cats Drew Bledsoe vs. The Crushers David Carr. Obviously Bledsoe ahs the easier day lined up for him. On the otehr hand the Crushers have Clinton Portis running wild on the NFLs worst rusing defense while the X-Cats stud Larry Johnson is nursing a neck injury and going against a desperate Steelrs team so he could be neutralized.
Rhode Island Dynamic (3-2) vs. T-Hawks (3-2)
The Dynamic don't have Peyton Manning this week so they are already in trouble nevermind that they don't even have a backup to put in. That opens up an opportunity for the T-Hawks Phillip RIvers who gets to apply the smackdown to the Niners D.
Cromer Smash! (1-3-1) vs. Cooney Quest (2-3)
Micehal Vick is a Fantasy Football enigma. His remarkable talent rarely cash into big points and some weeks he just outright bombs. This week the Quest hopes he can break through against the Gaints defense but they also have Thomas Jones and Reggie Bush to take up the slack. The Smash are looking for a big bounce back from Chad Pennington and Willie Parker to cut through the improved Chiefs defense.
Eat My Shorts (2-3) vs. stantheman (5-0)
stantheman has been the surprise of the league so far but the run could be ending this week if they don't move fast and replace Laurence Maroney who is on a bye and fix a blank on defense. EMS may not take advantage though because Trent Green may not be ready to come back yet and having the Niners as your starting D is suicide especially when the opposing defense is CHicago. It's up to THomlinson and McCallister to save the day.
FIRST Force (2-2-1)vs. RPI10 (2-3)
2 blanks.
FIRST Force ahs hobbled their hopes to win by leaving two spots empty and now they have no running back and are relying on Joey Harrington to cme through for them. If RP110s Eli Manning or Rudi Johnson have any kind of a big day it's over quick.
Evil Trav's Minions (4-1) vs. Silver Lobos (3-2)
The featured quarterback matchup will provide the fireworks (the Minons Donovan McNabb vs. the Silver Lobos Rex Grossman) but the Minons have a secret weapon. If Grossman has any type of success it will probably come though Bernard Berrian who is on the Minons.
The Very Fast Blitz (1-4)vs. Indiana Ironmen (3-2)
Ther blitz are missing four players and aren't going to win because they can't score enough.
Stevies Scapegoats (3-2) vs. Amazin' Blue (4-1)
This is an odd matchup. The Scapegoats have all their players but no one really stands out. Amazin' Blue is missing two players but if their backs Tatum Bell or Michael Turner do what they do best they can overvcome those losses.
Boilers 1529 (1-4) vs. {} (1-4)
Well someone has to win this one...
biolers has the advantage at quarterback with Drew Brees over JP Losman and may have the advantage at runningback with Warrick Dunn vs. Ronnie Brown.
Meatball Artists (2-3) vs. sigmakittens (0-5)
There are six missing players on both roster combined due to byes and injury in this underwhelming matchup.
So who has the advantage?
Well the MEatball Artist have a strong running game with Stephen Jackson and Julius Jones. Marc Bulger is playing very well for them as well but they won't get much of anything from the defense. The kitties have three runningbacks but none of them have done much of anything this year.They need a big day from Jake Plummer.
