Fantasy Football Player
Matchups week 6
You can either catch a flick
like The Grudge 2 or The Marine this weekend,
or you can focus on football and invest into BetUS.com’s
fantasy football player match-ups. Unless you
are into WWE wrestlers making a foray into the
movie industry, I suggest the latter. Here’s
what we got for this week:
Player matchups
Group 1
Eli Manning
Willie Parker
Chad Johnson
vs.
Michael Vick
Julius Jones
Anquan Boldin
Manning Jr. is coming off
a quietly effective week and goes up against the
Michael Vick experience both in fantasy and real
football. The running backs in this match-up figure
to pile up some tantalizing numbers as Wee Willie
Parker takes on Kansas City, while Julius Jones
faces the fragile Texans’ defense. Chad
Johnson’s effect on the fantasy world has
been subtle to this point in the season but coming
off of a bye, expect him to make a statement.
Pick: Eli Manning,
Willie Parker, Chad Johnson
Group 2
Drew Brees
Steven Jackson
Terrell Owens
vs.
Donovan McNabb
Clinton Portis
Santana Moss
Donovan McNabb is the odds
on favorite for NFL MVP so far and he heads into
New Orleans this week. Brees, who is quarterbacking
America’s new team, the New Orleans Saints,
has picked apart every type of defense so far
and will put up decent number against the Eagles
as well. Look for Clinton Portis to have a huge
week against the feeble and worst-ranked Titans
rushing defense while Santana Moss should also
find the end zone. Very quietly, Steven Jackson
has found himself atop the league in rushing yards.
Don’t sleep on him. Pick:
Donovan McNabb, Clinton Portis, Santana Moss
Group 3
Philip Rivers
LaDainian Tomlinson
Plaxico Burress
vs.
Matt Hasselbeck
Larry Johnson
Hines Ward
Pick:
Philip Rivers looks like he did some growing up
last week and along with his number one, LaDainian
Tomlinson, the Chargers should abuse the San Francisco
49ers. Matt Hasselbeck has had a week off
to think about his misstep on national television
in Chicago and now finds himself in a first-place
tilt with St. Louis. Both Larry Johnson (neck
stinger) and Hines Ward (hamstring) are hurt but
expect them to play through the pain.
Group 4
Chad Pennington
Rudi Johnson
Javon Walker
vs.
Carson Palmer
Willis McGahee
Andre Johnson
After putting up a donut
last week, Chad Pennington will reassert himself
this week against the Miami Dolphins. He teams
with Rudi Johnson, who is itching to carry the
load against a frail Bucs’ rush defense,
and Javon Walker, who made more than a couple
of critical catches on Monday Night Football.
Carson Palmer will be sharp after a bye week and
teams with Willis McGahee, who ranks third in
NFL rushing, and Andre Johnson, who ranks fourth
in NFL receiving.
Pick: Carson Palmer,
Willis McGahee, Andre Johnson
Group 5
Quarterbacks
Carson Palmer
Drew Bledsoe
Donovan McNabb
Drew Brees
Pick: Drew Bledsoe
Group 6
Running Backs
Larry Johnson
LaDainian Tomlinson
Rudi Johnson
Tiki Barber
Pick: LaDainian Tomlinson
