Neil Rackers
The best kicker in fantasy football was
at it again on Sunday. Neil Rackers went 4 for 4 on Sunday, hitting
field goals from 23, 31, 50 and 44 yards out. In my league that
was a 20 points showing.
Rackers has put up double digit points
in six out of Arizona’s eight games. The two games that he did not
have double digits Rackers scored 9 points.
That is serious production from a
kicker who didn't go until the later rounds in most fantasy drafts.

Antonio Gates
If you are in a league where you must
start a tight end you know how valuable Gates has been to his owners.
Gates put up eight catches for 132 yards in a big win for the Chargers yesterday.
Antonio leads all tight ends in catches, yards, touchdowns and most
important to our readers...fantasy points. The next closest tight end
Jeremy Shockey is 23 points behind, Alge Crumpler is third is scoring 48
points behind Gates.
13 points was not the most a by a tight end
yesterday but I felt another average week for Gates still deserved recognition.

Shaun Alexander
It is once again completely obvious why
Shaun was dubbed “Alexander the Great” at the University of Alabama.
Everyone thinks of him as a touchdown machine, which is fair considering
he’s had almost 2 touchdowns per week, but he’s more than that. His 173
yards on Sunday put him in complete control of the yardage race among
running backs.
He now has 949 rushing yards through 8 games and a 114
yard lead on Tomlinson. His 7.5 yards per carry this week helped boost
him to a healthy 5.4 yards per carry on the season and earned him a nod
as a Freak of the Week.

The Sandman -
LaDanaian Tomlinson
Two weeks ago, the Philadelphia Eagles
defense held the best running back in football to only 7 rushing yards.
Last week Tomlinson had only 69 yards rushing against the Chiefs. His
owners were starting to worry that teams had figured out how to stop him.
Everyone relax. L.T. showed that he is still the best back in the
business with his 157 total yards and four touchdowns, the most in his
career for a single game. Of all the plays Tomlinson made, the best was when he made Jets
cornerback Ty Law take a seat after catching a ball out of the
backfield.
L.T. has a bye this week so he should be rested for the
fantasy home stretch.
