Broncos at Redskins

Time: 1:00 PM ET   Location: FedEx Field - Landover, MD  

REDSKINS (3-7-0)

BRONCOS (6-4-0)

  Jason Campbell

QB
I can't remember the last time I recommended Campbell to be played, and I'm certainly not going to start now. He's so inconsistent, it's maddening. Leave him on the bench until this offense is able to get down the field unscathed.

  Kyle Orton

QB
Washington hasn't been all that terrible on the defensive side of the ball lately, and the Broncos have dropped a couple games now, so this turns out to be a better matchup than it may have looked previously. On the road, I don't know if I could go with Orton this week, although it's not a bad matchup, either. If he's your No. 1 guy, stick with him, but if you have someone else, you may wanna consider that.

  Clinton Portis

RB
The concussion he sustained last week will almost definitely keep him out of this weekend's game, which is disappointing to some, but a blessing in disguise to many others who've he's been disappointing all season long.

  Correll Buckhalter

RB
I know Buckhalter got most of the carries last week, but it still only added up to nine of them. That's not enough to convince me he's the No. 1 option in the backfield yet.

No player in this position.
  Knowshon Moreno

RB
Moreno conceeded most of the team's carries to Buckhalter last week, which has to make you worry about what's going on in this situation. I still like him, but I wouldn't use him in any more than a Flex capacity at the moment.

  Santana Moss

WR
The team's top offensive weapon right now is going to be guarded by half the Bronco defense this week. That's not good for him, as he's had enough problems getting open before now. I don't think you can play anybody on this unit right now, honestly.

  Eddie Royal

WR
Royal got a good amount of attention last week, which was good news for owners who've been sitting on him all season. The five catches and 74 yards were signs that the team is involving him more, but I still say you should hold out unless you're really desperate for a starter. He's a borderline Flex guy in my eyes at the moment.

  Antwaan Randle El

WR
The veteran can usually find a way to get his hands on the ball, but that hasn't been happened as frequently as normal, which has to worry you. His receptions are down, and it's not going to increase anytime soon. Leave him alone.

  Brandon Marshall

WR
He'll get the one-on-one coverage from DeAngelo Hall, but I happen to love this matchup. Marshall's a horse who'll be getting 10-15 looks every game from Orton right now. Regardless of who he's going up against, you have to start someone like that.

  Devin Thomas

WR
On occasion, he can do some good things, and I know he scored recently too. However, Thomas is obviously not a fantasy player right now. Wait until this team gets its act together first.

  Jabar Gaffney

WR
Gaffney's a decent player, but he certainly isn't one who's going to make much of a difference in your fantasy numbers. He's never really been that kind of stats guy. I'd leave him alone.

  Fred Davis

TE
With Chris Cooley out for a little while longer, the rookie is the new starter at the position. He actually has a chance to do some good things, but he could only manage two catches for 26 yards last week in a starting role. He's gonna need to prove more to me before I play him again.

  Tony Scheffler

TE
One of my favorite overall players at the position hasn't been getting the touches lately, which obviously worries most owners. At this point, I think you have to go a different direction to find your TE points.

  Shaun Suisham

K
Never been a fan of Suisham, and he's never done all that much to prove me wrong in that assessment. This team doesn't score nearly enough points to make him a factor this week. Stay off.

He could get a lot more chances this week than you'd think. The Redskins have a nice defense, which could stall some Bronco drives. If you own him, I say you ahve to keep him in there.

  Redskins
D/ST
They've been better than advertised most of the season. That hasn't been this team's problem. It's been the offense. Unfortunately, one feeds off the other, and starting these guys could come back to bite you if their offense can't keep them off the field. You have to stay away, even though it isn't entirely their fault.

This Bronco unit has proven themselves all year long, and I love any team that gets to go up against Jason Campbell and this crumbling offense. This is an easy play in my opinion.
