Thursday Morning Quarterback - Week 6 Recommendations (Thu 10/14/10)

Thursday, October 14th, 2010

Hi everyone,

Randy Moss is back in Minnesota.  Deion Branch is back in New England.  What in the world is going on here?  Did someone flip the calendar back to 2002 when I wasn’t looking?  Wait, I guess not - Brett Favre’s the one now throwing passes to Moss, not Daunte Culpepper.  Although if the 1-3 Vikings don’t get their act together soon, their 2002 record of 6-10 may actually look impressive.  Here are my recommendations for Week 6 - all games are Sunday during the day unless otherwise noted:

Atlanta at Philadelphia (Sunday early) - Michael Vick’s likely absence from this game against his former team takes some of the luster off this matchup, but this contest should still be one of the better games of the weekend.  Kevin Kolb and the Eagles’ passing game will get the better of Michael Turner and the Falcons’ running game.  Philadelphia 28  Atlanta 24.

  • Atlanta
    • Yes (Should definitely be in your starting lineup):  RB Michael Turner, WR Roddy White, TE Tony Gonzalez
    • No (Should definitely NOT be in your starting lineup):  WRs Harry Douglas & Michael Jenkins, DEF, K Matt Bryant
    • Maybe So (Okay to start if you don’t have a better option):  QB Matt Ryan
  • Philadelphia
    • Yes:  QB Kevin Kolb (assuming he starts), WRs DeSean Jackson & Jeremy Maclin, TE Brent Celek (Probable-wrist), DEF
    • No:  QB Michael Vick (whether or not he starts), K David Akers
    • Maybe So:  RBs LeSean McCoy (Probable-ribs) & Jerome Harrison

Kansas City at Houston - Was Kansas City’s defeat last weekend at the hand of the Colts a bump in the road or a sign of things to come?  Bet on the latter.  Was Houston’s no-show last weekend against the Giants a bump in the road or a sign of things to come?  Bet on the former.  Houston 30 Kansas City 21.

  • Kansas City
    • Yes: TE Tony Moeaki
    • No:  WRs Chris Chambers & Dexter McCluster, DEF, K Ryan Succop
    • Maybe So:  QB Matt Cassel, RBs Jamaal Charles & Thomas Jones, WR Dwayne Bowe
  • Houston
    • Yes: QB Matt Schaub, WRs Andre Johnson (Questionable-ankle) & Kevin Walter, DEF, K Neil Rackers
    • No:  RB Derrick Ward (Questionable-ribs), WR Jacoby Jones (Questionable-calf)
    • Maybe So:  RB Arian Foster (Probable-knee) & TE Owen Daniels (Questionable-knee)

Cleveland at Pittsburgh - Ben Roethlisberger makes his “triumphant” return in front of an adoring(?) home crowd, while Cleveland prepares to start rookie Colt McCoy against the Steelers’ Defense.  If you think this game has “trainwreck” written all over it, you would be correct.  Pittsburgh 34 Cleveland 14.

  • Cleveland
    • Yes:  TE Ben Watson
    • No:  QBs Colt McCoy, Jake Delhomme (Questionable-ankle), & Seneca Wallace (Questionable-ankle); RBs Peyton Hillis (Questionable-thigh) & Mike Bell, WRs Mohamed Massaquoi & Josh Cribbs (Questionable-ankle), DEF, K Phil Dawson
    • Maybe So:  None
  • Pittsburgh
    • Yes:  QB Ben Roethlisberger; RB Rashard Mendenhall, WRs Hines Ward & Mike Wallace, TE Heath Miller, DEF, K Jeff Reed
    • No:  None
    • Maybe So:  None

Seattle at Chicago - Jay Cutler returns this week, mercifully putting an end to the Todd Collins Era in Chicago.  Meanwhile the Beast Mode Era begins for Seattle as Marshawn Lynch makes his debut for the Seahawks.  Unfortunately, he’ll have nowhere to run agains the Bears’ defense, and the Seahawks have no passing game to speak of.  Chicago 27 Seattle 10.

  • Seattle
    • Yes:  TE John Carlson
    • No:  QB Matt Hasselbeck; RBs Marshawn Lynch & Justin Forsett; WRs Mike Williams, Golden Tate, & Deon Butler; DEF, K Mason Crosby
    • Maybe So:  None
  • Chicago
    • Yes:  QB Jay Cutler (Probable-concussion), RB Matt Forte, WRs Devin Hester & Johnny Knox, TE Greg Olsen, DEF, K Robbie Gould
    • No:  WRs Devin Aromashodu & Earl Bennett
    • Maybe So:  RB Chester Taylor

Detroit at New York Giants - Shaun Hill has played well in Matthew Stafford’s absence, and the Lions’ 44-point outburst against the Rams last week was impressive.  However, after a rough start the Giants’ defense seems to be rounding into form, and the Giants should extend their winning streak to three games.  New York 31 Detroit 17.

  • Detroit
    • Yes:  WR Calvin Johnson (Questionable-shoulder), TE Brandon Pettigrew
    • No:  QB Shaun Hill, RB Jahvid Best (Questionable-toe), WR Nate Burleson (Questionable-ankle), DEF, K Jason Hanson
    • Maybe So:  None
  • New York Giants
    • Yes:  QB Eli Manning, RB Ahmad Bradshaw, WRs Steve Smith & Hakeem Nicks, DEF
    • No:  K Lawrence Tynes
    • Maybe So:  RB Brandon Jacobs, WR Mario Manningham, TE Kevin Boss

Baltimore at New England - Call me crazy, but I just don’t see how New England can win this game.  People will cite the Tom Brady factor, but unless he’s able to wave a magic wand and transform the Pats’ defense into a respectable unit, the Patriots will be watching this year’s playoffs at home on television.  Baltimore 27 New England 17.

  • Baltimore
    • Yes:  QB Joe Flacco, RB Ray Rice (Questionable-knee), WRs Anquan Boldin & Derrick Mason, TE Todd Heap, DEF, K Billy Cundiff
    • No:  None
    • Maybe So:  RB Willis McGahee, WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh
  • New England
    • Yes: WR Wes Welker, TE Aaron Hernandez
    • No:  QB Tom Brady, RB Fred Taylor (Questionable-toe), WRs Brandon Tate & Deion Branch, DEF, K Stephen Gostkowski
    • Maybe So:  RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis

San Diego at St. Louis - Last week the Chargers suffered an agonizing defeat (thanks, special teams), and the Rams suffered a crushing defeat (thanks, everyone).  This week the Chargers will rebound, and the Rams will not.  San Diego 35 St Louis 17.

  • San Diego
    • Yes:  QB Philip Rivers, WRs Malcom Floyd & Legedu Naanee (Questionable-hamstring), TE Antonio Gates, DEF
    • No:  K Nate Kaeding
    • Maybe:  RB Ryan Mathews (Probable-ankle) & Mike Tolbert
  • St. Louis
    • Yes:  WR Danny Amendola
    • No:  QB Sam Bradford, WRs Laurent Robinson & Brandon Gibson, DEF, K Josh Brown
    • Maybe So:  RB Steven Jackson

Miami at Green Bay  - Miami figures to have trouble passing against Green Bay’s defense.  Assuming Aaron Rodgers is able to play, this should be one of the more competitive games of the day.  If the Packers are forced to start Matt Flynn instead of Rodgers, that won’t be the case.  Miami 24 Green Bay 21.

  • Miami
    • Yes: RB Ronnie Brown, WR Brandon Marshall, TE Anthony Fasano, DEF
    • No:  K Dan Carpenter
    • Maybe So:  QB Chad Henne, RB Ricky Williams, WR Davone Bess
  • Green Bay
    • Yes:  RB Brandon Jackson, DEF
    • No:  QB Matt Flynn (whether or not he starts), RB John Kuhn, WRs James Jones & Jordy Nelson, TEs Jermichael Finley (Out-knee) & Anthony Quarless, K Mason Crosby
    • Maybe So:  QB Aaron Rodgers (Questionable-concussion), WRs Greg Jennings & Donald Driver

New Orleans at Tampa Bay - On paper this game looks like a mismatch.  On the field this game will look like even more of a mismatch.  Somewhere John Karney is shedding a tear.  New Orleans 30 Tampa Bay 17.

  • New Orleans
    • Yes: QB Drew Brees (Probable-knee), WR Marques Colston (Probable-ribs), TE Jeremy Shockey, K Garrett Hartley
    • No: RBs Pierre Thomas (Questionable-ankle) & Julius Jones, DEF
    • Maybe So:  RBs Chris Ivory (Probable-knee) & Ladell Betts; WRs Devery Henderson, Lance Moore, & Robert Meachem
  • Tampa Bay
    • Yes:  TE Kellen Winslow (Probable-knee)
    • No:  QB Josh Freeman; RBs Cadillac Williams, Earnest Graham (Questionable-hamstring), LeGarrette Blount, & Kareem Huggins; WR Mike Williams (Questionable-foot), DEF, K Connor Barth
    • Maybe So:  None

New York Jets at Denver (Sunday late) - It’s likely Jets’ cornerback Darrelle Revis will miss the game due to his hamstring injury.  If that’s indeed the case, the Jets secondary will struggle to cover the Broncos’ talented wide receiver corps.  Denver 28 New York Jets 24.

  • New York
    • Yes:  RBs LaDainian Tomlinson & Shonn Greene,  WR Braylon Edwards, TE Dustin Keller
    • No:  WR Jerricho Cotchery, DEF, K Nick Folk
    • Maybe So:  QB Mark Sanchez, WR Santonio Holmes
  • Denver
    • Yes:  QB Kyle Orton, WRs Brandon Lloyd & Eddie Royal, DEF
    • No:  RBs Knowshon Moreno (Questionable-hamstring), Laurence Maroney, & Correll Buckhalter, WR Demaryius Thomas (Questionable-concussion), K Matt Prater
    • Maybe So:  WR Jabar Gaffney

Oakland at San Francisco - It seems like it’s been since the days of the late George Blanda that the Raiders had a better team than their Bay Area neighbors.  The Raiders are far from being a Super Bowl contender, but there are finally some signs of life.  Oakland 30 San Francisco 27.

  • Oakland
    • Yes:  QB Jason Campbell, RB Michael Bush, WR Louis Murphy, TE Zach Miller, K Sebastian Janikowski
    • No:  QB Bruce Gradkowski (Doubtful-shoulder), RB Darren McFadden (Questionable-hamstring), WR Darrius Heyward-Bey, DEF
    • Maybe So:  None
  • San Francisco
    • Yes:  QB Alex Smith, RB Frank Gore, WRs Michael Crabtree & Josh Morgan, TE Vernon Davis, K Joe Nedney
    • No:  DEF
    • Maybe So:  None

Dallas at Minnesota Two much-maligned coaches with 1-3 records face off against each other in the Underachiever Bowl.  Randy Moss with a full week of practice under his belt with his new team makes enough of a difference to tilt the scales in Minnesota’s favor.  Minnesota 27 Dallas 24.

  • Dallas
    • Yes: QB Tony Romo; RB Felix Jones; WRs Miles Austin, Dez Bryant (Questionable-ankle), & Roy Williams; TE Jason Witten
    • No:  RB Marion Barber, DEF, K David Buehler
    • Maybe So: None
  • Minnesota
    • Yes:  QB Brett Favre (Questionable-elbow), RB Adrian Peterson, WRs Randy Moss & Percy Harvin, TE Visanthe Shiancoe (Questionable-hamstring), DEF, K Ryan Longwell
    • No:  None
    • Maybe So:  None

Indianapolis at Washington (Sunday night) - The chances of Peyton Manning having two lousy games in a row are miniscule.  The chances of Washington throwing the ball well against a suspect Colts’ defense are great.  Combining the two means that this should be one of the better matchups of the weekend, but the Colts will keep pace with Houston and the Tennessee-Jacksonville winner atop the AFC South.  Indianapolis 31 Washington 24.

  • Indianapolis
    • Yes: QB Peyton Manning; WRs Reggie Wayne, Austin Collie (Questionable-foot), & Pierre Garcon (Questionable-hamstring), TE Dallas Clark, DEF
    • No:  RBs Donald Brown (Questionable-hamstring) & Mike Hart (Questionable-hip), K Adam Vinatieri
    • Maybe So: RB Joseph Addai (Questionable-neck)
  • Washington
    • Yes:  QB Donovan McNabb (Probable-thigh), RB Ryan Torain, WR Santana Moss, TE Chris Cooley
    • No:  DEF, K Graham Gano
    • Maybe So:  WR Anthony Armstrong 

Tennessee at Jacksonville (Monday night) - NFL schedule makers probably envisioned this game as a showcase for two of the best running backs in the game.  However, with both Chris Johnson and Maurice Jones-Drew dealing with injuries, the outcome of the game will rest heavily on the teams’ quarterback play.  Expect David Garrard to have a slightly better game than his counterpart Vince Young.  Jacksonville 30 Tennessee 27.

  • Tennessee
    • Yes: RB Chris Johnson (Questionable-thigh), WRs Kenny Britt & Nate Washington, TE Bo Scaife, K Rob Bironas
    • No: RB Javon Ringer, WR Justin Gage (Questionable-hamstring), DEF
    • Maybe So: QB Vince Young
  • Jacksonville
    • Yes:  RB Maurice Jones-Drew (Questionable-ankle), WRs Mike Sims-Walker & Mike Thomas, TE Marcedes Lewis, K Josh Scobee
    • No:  RB Rashad Jennings (Questionable-shoulder), DEF
    • Maybe So:  QB David Garrard

2010 Defense Rankings (Sun 8/29/10)

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

The fantasy value of team defenses is only slightly more predictable than that of Kickers.  That’s why it generally makes no sense to draft a defense until the final rounds or spend more than a dollar or two for one if you’re participating in an auction.

Still, given that most leagues require you have a defense in your starting lineup, what’s the best way to go about picking one?  The defensive events that produce the most fantasy points (i.e. - defensive and special teams touchdowns) are virtually impossible to predict.  Events such as sacks, fumble recoveries, and interceptions are nearly as difficult to project.  Thus, I find the most useful way to rank team defenses (with or without special teams included) is on the basis of total yards allowed (i.e. - rushing + passing), which is somewhat less random than total points allowed.  Again, this is at best a reasonable proxy - you’ll almost certainly change defenses at least once during the course of a season due to a bye week, and perhaps more often based on your defense’s matchup for a given week.

With all that said here is my ranking of team defenses (with or without special teams) heading into the 2010 season:

  1. New York Jets
  2. Baltimore
  3. Green Bay
  4. Pittsburgh
  5. Minnesota
  6. Dallas
  7. Denver
  8. Cincinnati
  9. New England
  10. Carolina
  11. Washington
  12. New York Giants
  13. Houston
  14. Philadelphia
  15. San Diego
  16. San Francisco
  17. Chicago
  18. Indianapolis
  19. Arizona
  20. Miami
  21. Buffalo
  22. Atlanta
  23. Jacksonville
  24. Seattle
  25. Oakland
  26. New Orleans
  27. Tennessee
  28. Tampa Bay
  29. St. Louis
  30. Cleveland
  31. Kansas City
  32. Detroit

One final point about defenses - many fantasy football owners like to draft a backup defense so that they’ll be covered during their primary defense’s bye week and/or have the option of playing matchups each week.  I strongly disagree with this strategy, primarily because of the random nature of a defense’s fantasy value.  It’s very difficult to predict this fantasy value over the course of a season and even more difficult to predict a defense’s fantasy value from week to week.  My recommendation - pick one you’re comfortable with in your draft our auction, ride with it until the team’s bye week, then replace it via free agency.  You may fret that you’re putting the second coming of the Bears’ 1986 defense on waivers, but that’s almost certainly not the case.  The spot you’ll save by not carrying a second defense can be put to much better use by stashing another running back or wide receiver with high upside.

Until next time,

2010 Kicker Rankings (Wed 8/18/10)

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

People generally have one of two mindsets when it comes to drafting Kickers for their fantasy football team: (1) take one of the “top Kickers” several rounds before the end of the draft, or (2) wait until the last round or two of your draft to take a Kicker and take “the best Kicker available” (or “any Kicker who’s available and still has a pulse”).  Count me in the second group.  Kickers undoubtedly differ in their innate skill levels, but the number of opportunities a Kicker’s team presents him with far outweighs the importance of the Kicker’s accuracy on 50+ yard field goals in determining his fantasy value.  And predicting the number of opportunities a Kicker’s team is likely to give him is, to put it kindly, nearly impossible.  The opportunity cost of taking a Kicker before the last round far outweighs the potential benefit (at least in this Sherpa’s mind).

So, if predicting Kickers’ fantasy values is a futile exercise, but you still need to pick one (or even two) for your team, what’s the best way to go about it?  I suggest that you rank Kickers in the same order that you should rank teams’ offenses, by total yards (rushing + passing).  There’s certainly a less-than-perfect correlation between the number of yards a team’s offense gains and the number of points it scores, and there’s also a less-than-perfect correlation between the number of points a team scores and the number of points its Kicker scores, but I firmly believe that trying to come up with a better system for ranking Kickers is a huge waste of time.

That said, here’s my ranking of Kickers for the upcoming season (which foreshadows my ranking of team offenses for the upcoming season):

  1. Garrett Hartley (NO)
  2. Mason Crosby (GB)
  3. David Buehler (Dal)
  4. Stephen Gostkowski (NE)
  5. Kris Brown Neil Rackers (Hou)
  6. Ryan Longwell (Min)
  7. Adam Vinatieri (Ind)
  8. Shayne Graham Billy Cundiff (Bal)
  9. Nate Kaeding (SD)
  10. David Akers (Phi)
  11. Matt Bryant (Atl)
  12. Lawrence Tynes (NYG)
  13. John Kasay (Car)
  14. Mike Nugent (Cin)
  15. Nick Folk (NYJ)
  16. Josh Scobee (Jac)
  17. Jay Feely (Ari)
  18. Jeff Reed (Pit)
  19. Dan Carpenter (Mia)
  20. Rob Bironas (Ten)
  21. Robbie Gould (Chi)
  22. Graham Gano (Was)
  23. Jason Hanson (Det)
  24. Ryan Succop (KC)
  25. Joe Nedney (SF)
  26. Matt Prater (Den)
  27. Olindo Mare (Sea)
  28. Sebastian Janikowski (Oak)
  29. Rian Lindell (Buf)
  30. Connor Barth (TB)
  31. Phil Dawson (Cle)
  32. Josh Brown (StL)

Agree or disagree?  Hit me with your best shot - fire away.
