2005-06 Fantasy Football Week 14 Hot & Not

If you are in need of a HOT fantasy football player these Top 10 Adds for the week should help you out. If you need to dump a lame duck on your team, these 10 NOTS should be them. Fantasy Football always favors the prepared mind. The more research you do, and the more HOT players you have to choose from on your team, the better your odds are of winning your fantasy football league outright this year. Week 14 Hot & Not Players are next...

Team	FANTASY FOOTBALL WHO'S HOT - AFTER WEEK 13
Lee Evans WR	Week 14 Outlook: Evans had a monster game last week (117 yards and three touchdowns) and is the Bills' best fantasy option this week. New England's secondary is allowing opposing receivers over 176 yards per game, and the Patriots' best cornerback (CB Asante Samuel) lacks the quickness to stay with Evans
T.J. Housh- mandzadeh, WR	Week 14 Outlook: T.J. Houshmandzadeh ranks right behind Reggie Wayne and Anquan Boldin as the best second fantasy receivers across the league. Although he continues to have problems with his hand, he proved to be able to play through it and flourish in Pittsburgh last week.
Andre Johnson WR	Week 14 Outlook: Tennessee's secondary is allowing opponents over 209-passing yards per game and there is little reason not to expect big things for Johnson. Even though he will continue to deal with frequent sacks and hurries, David Carr has been more consistent recently and should take full advantage of Johnson's favorable matchups
Koren Robinson WR	Week 14 Outlook: Robinson still is a long way from having cemented his role in Minnesota's offense, but he unmistakably laid the foundation last week with a 148-yard, TD-scoring performance.
Sebastian Janikowski Kicker	Week 14 Outlook: Oakland's running game should be able to sustain drives and consistently move the ball into Janikowski's territory. Look for big things from Oakland's big kicker.
Bears DST	Week 14 Outlook: This unit is making a run at all-time great status, so playing the matchup game isn't worth it. Pittsburgh has the power run game and depth at running back required to stall this unit, but Chicago has speed, playmakers and depth.
DeShaun Foster RB	Week 14 Outlook: Foster is coming off a career game (180 total yards, two TDs) and clearly has surpassed RB Stephen Davis as Carolina's top option in the backfield. Tampa Bay will put up more of a fight than Atlanta last week, but the undersized, attacking Bucs front seven still are vulnerable
Jeremy Shockey TE	Week 14 Outlook: The Eagles allow opposing tight ends over 52-receivng yards per game, fourth highest total in the NFL. Philadelphia's frequent blitzes will force Eli Manning to make quicker throws and Shockey should be his best option on short-intermediate passes.
Kurt Warner QB	Week 14 Outlook: The Cardinals have won two of their last three and it is now clear that Kurt Warner is their starter. Arizona will try to lock him up long-term as their signal caller. Despite starting the season slow, he now has a 63.9% completion percentage and is becoming much more comfortable in Dennis Green's system.
Samkon Gado RB	Week 14 Outlook: Gado has flashed serious big play potential and should have a solid, starter-worthy game against the woeful Lions' defense. Detroit's 25th ranked rushing defense is allowing opponents over 121-yards per game and will struggle to contain
Warrick Dunn RB	Week 14 Outlook: Undersized or not, Dunn continues to run with burst and power while carrying a workhorse load. New Orleans has a penetrating front four, but Atlanta's zone blocking scheme will create creases for Dunn--an excellent cutback runner--when the Saints get too far upfield.

Team	FANTASY FOOTBALL WHO'S NOT HOT - FOLLOWING WEEK 12
Eric Moulds WR	Week 14 Outlook: Moulds reportedly has been suspended by coach Mike Mularkey and will miss Sunday's game against New England. He is expected to return for Week 16
Browns DST	Week 14 Outlook: The Bengals can score points on anyone. Led by Carson Palmer, their offense attack is fantastic and creates mismatches against Cleveland in both the run and pass games. The Browns' defense should not be on your fantasy roster to begin with
Erron Kinney TE	Week 14 Outlook: Kinney (wrist) is likely out for this week's game against Houston. Considering Tennessee's depth at tight end, Jeff Fischer is unlikely to risk further injury to Kinney in an essentially meaningless game.
Kevin Curtis WR	Week 14 Outlook: Curtis has starter ability but serves as St. Louis' No. 3 receiver, which normally would make for overwhelmingly favorable matchups. But Minnesota CB Fred Smoot could return this week, beefing up the Vikings' secondary considerably.
Nate Burleson WR	Week 14 Outlook: Who?
Mike Nugent Kicker	Week 14 Outlook: The Jets' offense is too inefficient to expect Nugent to get many field goal tries. The rookie's disappointing season continues.
Kyle Orton QB	Week 14 Outlook: Pittsburgh will play a lot of man-free and cover 3 in the secondary, with SS Troy Polamalu cheated up for additional run support and blitz help. Trouble is, Orton--despite good arm strength--hasn't been able to take advantage of similar favorable perimeter matchups.
Michael Clayton WR	Week 14 Outlook: Probably due mostly to poor health, Clayton has had as terrible a follow-up as could be imagined to one of the most successful rookie seasons an NFL receiver has had
Mike McMahon QB	Week 14 Outlook: McMahon was simply terrible last week versus the Seahawks and did the impossible- made Detroit GM Matt Millen look like a genius (for dumping McMahon in favor of Joey Harrington).
Mark Brunell QB	Week 14 Outlook: Although he has been quiet of late, Brunell's 16/5 TD/INT ratio is still very impressive. The Cardinals are allowing 25.2 points per game and this might be the type of matchup that could help Brunell break out of his funk, but remember, this is also a cross-country road trip
Sammy Parker WR	Week 14 Outlook: Parker is inconsistent and still seems to be making his way back from a knee injury. Parker and QB Trent Green can take advantage downfield if given single coverage, but Glenn figures to get some help from FS Keith Davis
Alex Smith QB	Week 14 Outlook: His stats do not warrant his value and he is not a fantasy option for this season, but if San Francisco can pick up one big time weapon for Smith to throw to, he could begin to pay dividends next season.
