| 7. | Cowboys | Colombo, Hamlin out for Week 12 | (KFFL) Todd Archer and Bill Nichols, of The Dallas Morning News, report Dallas Cowboys OT Marc Colombo (ankle) and FS Ken Hamlin (ankle) are out for Week 12. | 34 minutes | |
| 8. | Eagles | Justice signs extension | (KFFL) The Philadelphia Eagles announced Tuesday, Nov. 24, that they have signed OT Winston Justice to a four-year contract extension through the 2013 season. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. | 46 minutes | |
| 9. | Steelers | Will not sign a veteran quarterback | (KFFL) Ed Bouchette, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reports the Pittsburgh Steelers are confident enough that QB Ben Roethlisberger (head) is healthy that they will not sign a veteran quarterback. QB Dennis Dixon will move up to the No. 2 quarterback spot and the Steelers will go with only two quarterbacks on the active roster for now. | 51 minutes | |
| 10. | Steelers | Will likely add Palko to practice squad | (KFFL) Ed Bouchette, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, reports the Pittsburgh Steelers will likely sign free-agent QB Tyler Palko (Saints) to their practice squad. | 56 minutes | |
| 11. | Rudy Carpenter | (RotoWire) The Bucs signed Carpenter from the Cowboys' practice squad, the Tampa Tribune reports. Analysis: He'll serve as the No. 3 quarterback down the stretch after Byron Leftwich was placed on injured reserve with an elbow injury. | 1 hour | |
| 12. | Mike Mickens | (RotoWire) Mickens was released by the Bucs on Tuesday, the Tampa Tribune reports. Analysis: Perhaps he'll get another look from a team more thinned out by injuries at cornerback later on this season. For now, the silver lining is that he'll probably get to spend Thanksgiving with his family instead of his teammates. | 1 hour | |
| 13. | Byron Leftwich | (RotoWire) Leftwich (elbow) has been placed on injured reserve, the Tampa Tribune reports. Analysis: The Bucs signed Rudy Carpenter from the Cowboys' practice squad to replace on Leftwich on their roster. | 1 hour | |
| 14. | Buccaneers | Mickens released | (KFFL) The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced Tuesday, Nov. 24, that they have released CB Mike Mickens. | 1 hour | |
| 15. | Colts waive Mike Hart | (Rotoworld) Colts waived RB Mike Hart. Analysis: The Colts are obviously comfortable with Jospeh Addai's finger and Donald Brown's shoulder. Chad Simpson sticks as the No. 3 back. They'll likely try to get Hart back on the practice squad. | 1 hour | |
| 16. | Palko expected to be signed by Steelers | (Rotoworld) The Steelers are expected to sign QB Tyler Palko, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Analysis: Pittsburgh is thin at quarterback with Ben Roethlisberger (concussion) banged up and Charlie Batch (wrist) sidelined. There were rumors that they were looking at a veteran like Jeff Garcia, but the Steelers may see the local hero Palko as a worthwhile project. Palko played with Larry Fitzgerald at Pitt. | 1 hour | |
| 17. | Buccaneers | Leftwich placed on IR | (KFFL) The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced Tuesday, Nov. 24, that they have placed QB Byron Leftwich (elbow) on Injured Reserve. | 1 hour | |
| 18. | Dawkins questionable for Thanksgiving | (Rotoworld) Broncos beat writer Mike Klis "would be surprised" if Brian Dawkins (neck) plays on Thanksgiving. Analysis: Dawkins hurt his neck during the Week 11 loss to the Chargers and was replaced by Darcel McBath. The Broncos would miss Dawkins' run-stopping ability if he can't go against Brandon Jacobs and the Giants Thursday. | 1 hour | |
| 19. | Eagles | Demps unlikely to play in Week 12 | (KFFL) Bob Brookover, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Eagles S Quintin Demps (ankle) is unlikely to play in Week 12 with a high ankle sprain. | 1 hour | |
| 20. | Eagles | Samuel should be ready for Week 12 | (KFFL) Bob Brookover, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Eagles CB Asante Samuel (neck) was doing well Monday, Nov. 23, after suffering a neck injury in Week 11 and should play in the team's Week 12 game, according to head coach Andy Reid. "It's more of a neck strain than a stinger," Reid said. "He feels good. He really felt good after the game and today he likewise felt good." | 1 hour | |
| 21. | Leftwich placed on injured reserve | (Rotoworld) Bucs placed Byron Leftwich on injured reserve, ending his season. Analysis: Leftwich was the Bucs' No. 3 quarterback behind rookie Josh Freeman and backup Josh Johnson. We're guessing this has to do with his elbow, but the Bucs probably wanted to bring in another youngster in Rudy Carpenter anyway. Leftwich is getting close to the end of the line. | 1 hour | |
| 22. | Finley getting work in the slot | (Rotoworld) Jermichael Finley lined up wide or in the slot 15 times during the Week 11 win over the 49ers. Analysis: Finley wasn't eased back into the mix after his knee injury. He played 54 snaps as the Packers went to the two-tight end set often. Donald Lee stayed in to block while Finley either lined up wide or went out on routes. Add the talented Finley as a tight end with upside. | 1 hour | |
| 23. | Childress admits that Winfield is close | (Rotoworld) Vikings coach Brad Childress said that Antoine Winfield (foot) wanted to play in Week 11 but the team decided to hold him out. Analysis: The Vikings smartly played it safe by sitting Winfield down for the Seahawks game. The team's top cover man is likely return for Sunday's matchup with the Bears. "He's close," Childress said. | 1 hour | |
| 24. | Vikings splitting out Shiancoe | (Rotoworld) The Vikings have installed some formations in which tight end Visanthe Shiancoe lines up out wide. Analysis: Shiancoe caught a touchdown pass in Week 11 when he started on the line but motioned off the line before the snap. "Shank has some of those wide receiver type capabilities and he's a big body and if you can get the right match against the safety those are good matches out there," coach Brad Childress said. Shiancoe is the No. 10 tight end in fantasy right now. | 1 hour | |
| 25. | Cowboys | Romo will play in Week 12 | (KFFL) Jeff Caplan, of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, reports Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) said he will play in the team's Week 12 game despite playing through a sore lower back suffered in Week 11. "He says he feels a lot better," head coach Wade Phillips said Monday, Nov. 23. "He had a little bit of stiffness. He had quite a bit during the ballgame, but he says he feels a lot better." | 1 hour | |
| 26. | Williams was dinged up against Panthers | (Rotoworld) Ricky Williams wasn't in for the final minute of the Dolphins' win over the Panthers last Thursday because he was "dinged up." Analysis: Lex Hilliard was called upon to run a fourth-down play and came up short. Williams is fine and is a must-start against the Bills this week, but there will be questions about his durability. The 22 carries he had last week were the most he's had since January of 2006. | 1 hour | |
| 27. | Durant ready to go | (Rotoworld) Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio said that MLB Justin Durant (concussion) will start against the 49ers on Sunday. Analysis: Durant was medically cleared to play against the Bills last week but was held out because he didn't practice all week. He's safe to get back in IDP lineups. | 1 hour | |
| 28. | Schaub, A. Johnson had trouble connecting | (TheHuddle) Houston Texans QB Matt Schaub and WR Andre Johnson had trouble getting on the same page in Week 11. Although Johnson was targeted 11 times in the game, he caught just four passes and had two dropped passes. Analysis: They still connected enough for Johnson to have a strong game with 78 yards and a TD. These two will be just fine going forward, even though that was an extremely bitter loss for the Texans. | 1 hour | |
| 29. | Broncos | Marshall not sorry for confrontation with Moreno | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Denver Broncos WR Brandon Marshall said he is not sorry for berating RB Knowshon Moreno during the team's Week 11 game after Moreno fumbled at the goal line. In fact, Marshall said more of his teammates should have shown some fire during the game. | 1 hour | |
| 30. | Brackenridge starting for Jags | (Rotoworld) Jaguars CB Tyron Brackenridge will get his second consecutive start this week in place of Rashean Mathis (groin). Analysis: Mathis has already been ruled out for Week 12 and coach Jack Del Rio said he won't have another update until next week. Brackenridge had three tackles and one pass defensed in Week 11 as part of a secondary that gave up 297 passing yards to Ryan Fitzpatrick. Brackenridge was the victim of Terrell Owens' 97-yard touchdown catch. | 1 hour | |
| 31. | Polian says Sanders will not be cut | (Rotoworld) Colts president Bill Polian said "there's no way we would cut Bob Sanders unless he's completely incapable of playing and I don't think that that's the case." Analysis: Sanders contract isn't up until 2012 and his assortment of injuries have made him one of the most overpaid players in the league. Polian said he doesn't see "any chance" of a trade either. We'll see what happens in the offseason. | 2 hours | |
| 32. | Texans | Schaub, A. Johnson had trouble connecting in Week 11 | (KFFL) ESPN.com reports Houston Texans QB Matt Schaub and WR Andre Johnson had trouble getting on the same page in Week 11. Although Johnson was targeted 11 times in the game, he caught just four passes and had two dropped passes. | 2 hours | |
| 33. | Texans | Schaub sets a franchise record in Week 11 | (KFFL) ESPN.com reports Houston Texans QB Matt Schaub threw two touchdowns in Week 11, his sixth consecutive game with two or more touchdown passes, a franchise record. | 2 hours | |
| 34. | Landry says Williams was scared | (Rotoworld) Redskins S LaRon Landry said that Roy Williams was "scared" to go over the middle in Week 11. Analysis: We hate to get in the middle of trash talk, but we have to agree. Williams got alligator arms when it looked like he was going to take a big hit and didn't catch any of the four balls that came his way. It's possible Williams is still thinking about that shot to the ribs he took against the Broncos in Week 4. | 2 hours | |
| 35. | Dennis Dixon | (RotoWire) At this point in time, it appears Dixon will in fact be the backup to Ben Roethisberger, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Analysis: There was speculation the Steelers would be in the marker to add a veteran QB (like Jeff Garcia) to the active roster. However, a source said the Steelers are holding off going in that direction for now, leaving Dixon at No. 2 on the depth chart with Charlie Batch possibly out for at least six weeks. Coach Mike Tomlin will have his press conference Tuesday where are questions will hopefully be answered. | 2 hours | |
| 36. | Ben Roethlisberger | (RotoWire) It is not expected that Roethlisberger sustained a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Analysis: The report is cited from a source "close to the situation." As well, the Steelers are not expected to be in the hunt for a veteran QB at this point and instead will look to add a young quarterback to the practice squad. We'll wait for hopeful confirmation on the prognosis of Roethlisberger from Coach Mike Tomlin at his press conference Tuesday. | 2 hours | |
| 37. | Titans | C. Johnson joins elite company in Week 11 | (KFFL) ESPN.com reports Tennessee Titans RB Chris Johnson rushed for 151 yards on 29 carries in Week 11, making him only the fourth player in NFL history with five straight games of 120-plus rushing yards and five-plus yards per carry. | 2 hours | |
| 38. | Chris Cooley says he's probably going on... | (Rotoworld) Chris Cooley (ankle) said Tuesday that he's probably going to land on injured reserve. Analysis: Cooley made the comments on a local radio station and nothing is official, but ending his season makes sense. He's still in a walking boot and it would be ridiculous to rush him back to a team that is going nowhere. Fred Davis has eight catches in three games as a starter and he'll get another six starts. | 2 hours | |
| 39. | Turner not ruling himself out for Week 12 | (TheHuddle) The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner (ankle) doesn't want to rule himself out for Week 12. Turner said, "It's an ankle sprain. These injuries are kind of like funny. Some guys take six weeks to bounce back, but I don't think I'll take that long. I'm just trying to get back to my normal self again." Analysis: Turner's optimism is commendable, but it would be a surprise if he can return that quickly from a high ankle sprain. Prepare as if you'll have to turn to another RB option this week. | 2 hours | |
| 40. | Westbrook out for Week 12 | (TheHuddle) The Philadelphia Inquirer reports Philadelphia Eagles RB Brian Westbrook (concussion) is out for the team's Week 12 game. Analysis: Westbrook will probably sit out at least this week and next before attempting to return. LeSean McCoy will remain the Eagles' No. 1 back for the foreseeable future. | 2 hours | |
| 41. | Romo limited Monday | (TheHuddle) DallasCowboys.com reports Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo (back) was limited during the team?s light walk-through Monday, Nov. 23. Analysis: Romo is expected to be good to go Thanksgiving against the Raiders. He's a risky Fantasy start, however, since Dallas is expected to stay on the ground for the most part against one of the worst run defenses in the league. | 2 hours | |
| 42. | Coach Lovie defends Forte | (Rotoworld) Bears coach Lovie Smith defended Matt Forte Monday, even though he picked up just 34 yards on 14 carries against the Eagles in Week 11. Analysis: "I know [Forte's] yardage -- the rushing total --didn't say that, but I liked the way he hit the holes." Smith admitted that Kahlil Bell, who rushed four times for 81 yards last week, could steal a few reps from Forte. "With production like that, why not?" asked Smith. Bell's 72-yard run was more of a fluke and we're expecting Forte to retain his every-down back status. | 2 hours | |
| 43. | Bulger out three to six weeks | (TheHuddle) StLouisRams.com reports St. Louis Rams QB Marc Bulger (tibia) will miss three to six weeks after an MRI revealed a broken tibia. It is not known if he will be placed on Injured Reserve. Analysis: Kyle Boller will take over in Bulger's stead. As we said earlier, whoever is under center shouldn't make a big difference in Steven Jackson's production. Jackson is the only Ram worth serious Fantasy consideration. | 2 hours | |
| 44. | J. Jones expected to practice this week | (TheHuddle) The Seattle Times reports Seattle Seahawks RB Julius Jones (lung) is expected to practice this week and return to the starting lineup Week 12. Analysis: Justin Forsett, in a short time, has established himself as the best option in the Seattle backfield. Or at least that's the perception. Jones will probably get another chance to prove he should be the man, so Forsett's touches will likely dwindle significantly this week. | 2 hours | |
| 45. | Cowher shoots down Bills | (Rotoworld) Bill Cowher told the Bills he's not interested in interviewing at this time, a league source told the Buffalo News. Analysis: It sounds like Cowher wants to wait until after the season to decide on his future -- or maybe he just isn't interested in the Bills job. It's worth noting that the News' source says a $10 million per year salary for Cowher was feasible. The Bills are expected to meet with Mike Shanahan this week and interim coach Perry Fewell will be given a formal interview after the season. | 2 hours | |
| 46. | Flacco's ankle still an issue | (Rotoworld) Ravens beat writer Mike Preston "wonders" if Joe Flacco's ankle is still bothering him. Analysis: Preston says that Flacco has been slow-moving, hestitant to step up in the pocket and is having balls sail on him since the injury. Flacco has no touchdown passes in his last three games and needs to be on fantasy benches against the Steelers this week. It's not helping that no one outside of Derrick Mason and Ray Rice can get open. | 2 hours | |
| 47. | Webb expected to start | (Rotoworld) Ravens rookie CB Lardarius Webb is expected to start now that Fabian Washington (knee) is out for the season. Analysis: Coach John Harbaugh stopped short of naming Webb his starter, only saying that the third-rounder is "going to be a big part of the plans." Chris Carr and Frank Walker are the other options, but Webb has played very well and should get the majority of reps. | 3 hours | |
| 48. | Warner would not have gone back in the g... | (Rotoworld) Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt was very optimistic Monday that Kurt Warner (concussion-like symptoms) will be fine to start against the Titans Sunday. Analysis: Whisenhunt did say that Warner would not have gone back in last week's game, even if the Rams got closer. Warner is expected to have his "baseline test" on Tuesday and the team expects that exam to come back clean. We're tentatively penciling in Warner as a starter Sunday. | 3 hours | |
| 49. | Gage has no timetable for return | (Rotoworld) Justin Gage (back) said he is unsure when he'll be able to get back on the field. Analysis: Gage missed his second straight game Monday night as a result of the awkward fall he took against the 49ers in Week 9. Kenny Britt stepped in and was impressive, leading the team with four catches for 42 yards and a touchdown. | 3 hours | |
| 50. | Harper returns to starting lineup | (Rotoworld) Titans LCB Nick Harper returned to the starting lineup in Week 11 after missing four games with a broken forearm. Analysis: Rod Hood went back to the bench. Harper was burned by Andre Johnson for a touchdown in the first half and admitted he felt a little rusty. He wore a protective brace on his forearm and will do so for the rest of the season. | 3 hours | |
| 51. | Brown takes loss hard | (Rotoworld) Kris Brown missed another potential game-tying field goal in Monday night's loss to the Titans. Analysis: Brown could have sent last night's game to overtime with a 49-yard boot and also had a chance to send the Texans into overtime with a 46-yard kick in Week 9 against the Colts. "It's totally on me," Brown said. "The frustrating part for me is we have 44 guys out there busting their tail and one guy out there not doing his job, which is me." Brown is not in danger of losing his job. | 3 hours | |
| 52. | Johnson admits he may just be a spy | (Rotoworld) Giants DB D.J. Johnson admitted that he may have been brought in just to serve as a "snitch" for Thursday's game against the Broncos. Analysis: The Giants signed Johnson off the Broncos' practice squad on Oct. 11. "To tell you the truth, I don't know about my future here," Johnson said. "And I'm fully aware of the possibility that's what I was brought in for." Johnson said he volunteered to tell the coaches everything he knows about the Broncos' secondary. | 3 hours | |
| 53. | Castillo's status up in the air | (Rotoworld) Chargers DE Luis Castillo's status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs is unknown after he injured his calf in Week 11. Analysis: Castillo hurt his calf in the second quarter and did not return. He has 20 tackles and two sacks on the season. | 4 hours | |
| 54. | Hardwick expected back at practice | (Rotoworld) Chargers C Nick Hardwick (ankle) is expected to finally return to practice this week. Analysis: Hardwick has been out since getting hurt in Week 1. He was set to return a couple weeks ago, but had a setback and hasn't practiced since. He has a chance to play against the Chiefs this week and would give the Chargers' running game a boost. | 4 hours | |
| 55. | Justin Gage | (RotoWire) Gage (back) missed his second straight game Monday night and is not sure when he will be able to return, the Tennessean reports. Analysis: Gage suffered multiple broken bones in his back on November 8. He says he has made a lot of progress in healing. Kenny Britt will likely continue to start in Gage's absence. | 4 hours | |
| 56. | Tomlinson expected to practice and play | (Rotoworld) LaDainian Tomlinson (hip, ribs) is expected to practice this week and play against the Chiefs Sunday. Analysis: The San Diego Union-Tribune says that Tomlinson took a "shot in the ribs" last week, but that's the first we've heard of that injury. Tomlinson continues to pick up a lot of little nicks but expect him to be fine as an RB2 against the Chiefs Sunday. Also, coach Norv Turner confirmed that LT2 is his first priority in short-yardage situations. | 4 hours | |
| 57. | Sproles is done with short-yardage work | (Rotoworld) Chargers coach Norv Turner said he's going to stop using Darren Sproles in short-yardage situations. Analysis: Turner made it clear that LaDainian Tomlinson is his first choice for those situations. But when LT2 isn't available, Turner had surprisingly gone with the 5'6/181 Sproles. Look for Jacob Hester or Mike Tolbert to get the work in those circumstances going forward. | 4 hours | |
| 58. | David Anderson fills in for Jones | (Rotoworld) David Anderson stepped in for Jacoby Jones (calf) and caught five passes for 52 yards in Monday night's loss to the Titans. Analysis: Anderson was the No. 3 receiver ahead of Andre' Davis. He caught two balls on the Texans' final drive and played mostly out of the slot. Anderson will go back to his No. 4 role when Jones returns, which should be this week. | 4 hours | |
| 59. | Gross expects to be ready in three month... | (Rotoworld) Panthers LT Jordan Gross (broken leg) expects to be cleared for "anything" in three months. Analysis: Gross said he suffered a "perfect break" of his tibia and fibia. He'll be on crutches for six weeks before beginning his rehab. Gross admitted that the team will "probably baby me through" the offseason program, but he'll be ready to go for training camp. | 4 hours | |
| 60. | M. Turner likely to sit out again this w... | (Rotoworld) Although Michael Turner (ankle) didn't rule himself out for Sunday's game against the Bucs, beat writer D. Orlando Ledbetter says it's "likely" Jason Snelling will get another start. Analysis: Turner admitted that he didn't even test the ankle before the Week 11 loss to the Giants. There's still no timetable for his return. "These injuries are kind of like funny. Some guys take six weeks to bounce back, but I don't think I'll take that long," Turner said. Don't look for Turner to practice this week. | 4 hours | |
| 61. | Phillips expects Romo to play | (Rotoworld) Cowboys coach Wade Phillips confirmed that he is confident Tony Romo (back) will be fine to play on Thursday. Analysis: Romo was a little high with his throws shortly after taking that knee to the back, but he was accurate once the Cowboys went to the shotgun. He'll start on Thanksgiving against an Oakland defense that ranks ninth in completion percentage allowed. | 4 hours | |
| 62. | Brian Cushing | (RotoWire) Cushing (foot) has eight solo tackles and two assists in Houston's loss to Tennessee on Monday night. Analysis: Cushing's been dealing with the foot for nearly two months now, but still competes at a high level. | 5 hours | |
| 63. | Ryan Moats | (RotoWire) Moats did not carry the ball nor did he catch a pass in Monday night's loss to Tennessee. Analysis: Moats was the starter two weeks ago at Indianapolis, when Texans head coach Gary Kubiak pulled Steve Slaton from the starting unit. On Monday, Kubiak used a combination of Chris Brown and Slaton in the backfield. For now, Moats should not be considered for fantasy teams. | 5 hours | |
| 64. | Chris Brown | (RotoWire) Brown rushed for 36 yards on 11 carries and caught three passes for 17 yards in the Texans' loss to the Titans on Monday night. Analysis: Still not confident in Steve Slaton's ball security, Texans head coach Gary Kubiak gave more of the rushing duties to Brown. The 11 totes represent the most carries he's had this season. | 5 hours | |
| 65. | Glenn Martinez | (RotoWire) Martinez returned three punts for an average of 3.0 yards per return in Monday night's loss to the Titans. Analysis: Martinez was replacing Jacoby Jones (calf) as Houston's punt returner for the week. | 5 hours | |
| 66. | David Anderson | (RotoWire) Anderson had five catches for 52 yards in Monday night's loss to the Titans. Analysis: Anderson filled in for Jacoby Jones, who was unavailable because of a calf injury. He's been a reliable receiver when used, but has had trouble cracking the rotation of wideouts the past few years. | 5 hours | |
| 67. | James Casey | (RotoWire) Casey (knee) had two catches for 33 yards in Monday night's loss to the Titans. Analysis: Casey becomes the biggest pass-catching threat at tight end with Owen Daniels (knee) done for the season, though it's unlikely he'll get as many targets as Daniels. | 5 hours | |
| 68. | Kris Brown | (RotoWire) Brown missed two field goals including one that could have sent the game into overtime in Houston's loss to Tennessee on Monday night. Analysis: Brown has made 2-of-5 field-goal attempts in the past two games, failing on chances to beat the Colts in Week 9 and tie the Titans in Week 11. | 5 hours | |
| 69. | Texans | Schaub throws for 305 yards Week 11 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Houston Texans QB Matt Schaub was 25-for-39 for 305 yards with two touchdown passes Week 11 against the Tennessee Titans. | 11 hours | |
| 70. | Titans | C. Johnson runs for 151 yards Week 11 | (KFFL) The Associated Press reports Tennessee Titans RB Chris Johnson had 29 carries for 151 rushing yards Week 11. | 11 hours | |
| 71. | Panthers | C. Johnson will not play Week 12 | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers DE Charles Johnson (pectoral) said he will not play in the team's Week 12 game, but he is hoping to return for Week 13. | 11 hours | |
| 72. | Panthers | Godfrey might return this week | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers FS Charles Godfrey (ankle) might get back on the field this week. Godfrey feels like he is almost ready to play, but it is not known if he will get his starting job back when he returns. | 11 hours | |
| 73. | Panthers | Hoover might return this week | (KFFL) Steve Reed, of CarolinaGrowl.com, reports Carolina Panthers FB Brad Hoover (ankle) might get back on the field this week. Hoover said he felt better after running Monday, Nov. 23, but he admitted he is far from 100 percent. Hoover added, "I knew when I did it it was going to be one of those things where it nags me all year. But all I need is to be functional and keep the swelling down and for it not be too painful." | 11 hours | |
| 74. | Rookie TE Casey catches two passes in lo... | (Rotoworld) Texans rookie TE James Casey caught two passes for 33 yards in Week 11. Analysis: The former Rice University and minor league pitcher started for the Texans and saw his first extensive action of his rookie campaign. He is trying to replace the injured Owen Daniels but he is going to need time to connect with Matt Schaub. Casey is not a fantasy option yet. | 11 hours | |
| 75. | Walter catches four passes in Week 11 lo... | (Rotoworld) Kevin Walter caught four passes for 46 yards in Week 11. Analysis: Walter continues to be Matt Schaub's new Owen Daniels with Daniels (knee) out for the season. He is reliable over the middle and on third down for the Texans. Walter made a nice diving 8-yard catch on third down in the first quarter to set up Steve Slaton's score. He and the Texans have the Colts at home next week. | 12 hours | |
| 76. | Andre Johnson catches four passes and a ... | (Rotoworld) Andre Johnson caught four passes for 78 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' Week 11 loss. Analysis: Johnson was targeted 11 times on the night, but Matt Schaub had Titans' defenders in his face for much of the night and had to throw off his back foot a number of times. The 78-yard, one TD output is weak compared to Johnson's previous games against Tennessee. Look for him to get back on track against the Colts next week. | 12 hours | |
| 77. | Falcons | Turner not ruling himself out for Week 12 | (KFFL) D. Orlando Ledbetter, of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, reports Atlanta Falcons RB Michael Turner (ankle) doesn't want to rule himself out for Week 12. Turner said, "It's an ankle sprain. These injuries are kind of like funny. Some guys take six weeks to bounce back, but I don't think I'll take that long. I'm just trying to get back to my normal self again." | 12 hours | |
| 78. | Brown sees bulk of the work for Texans | (Rotoworld) Chris Brown ran the ball 11 times for 36 yards in Week 11. Analysis: Brown also caught three passes for 17 yards in the loss. Coach Gary Kubiak seemed to go with more of the physical route in the backfield to try and match the Titans smash-mouth defensive style. He still isn't worth much in fantasy but that could change if an injury occurs. | 12 hours | |
| 79. | Slaton scores TD in limited time in Week... | (Rotoworld) Steve Slaton rushed five times for 21 yards and caught five passes for 42 yards and a touchdown in Week 11. Analysis: Slaton regained his starting job on Monday night but saw limited touches (10) compared to Chris Brown (14). He held onto the ball again this week, but is still seeing less and less playing time. Slaton has some value in PPR leagues, as he saw eight targets in the passing game on Monday. He and the Texans have the Colts at home in Week 12. | 12 hours | |
| 80. | Schaub throws for 305 yards and 2 TD in ... | (Rotoworld) Matt Schaub completed 25-of-39 passes for 305 yards and two touchdowns in the Texans' 20-17 loss on Monday night. Analysis: The league's third-leading passer was pressured by the Tennessee defensive front for most of the night and was forced to throw the ball off of his back foot a number of times. Schaub played well and found some openings in the first half but couldn't get much late in the game. The 5-5 Texans have Indianapolis at home next week. | 12 hours | |
| 81. | Scaife catches four passes in Week 11 wi... | (Rotoworld) Bo Scaife caught four passes for 38 yards in the Titans' Week 11 win. Analysis: Vince Young checked down to Scaife when nothing was open deep and was targeted six times on the night. He is not a fantasy option at all, as he still hasn't found the end zone in 2009. | 12 hours | |
| 82. | Washington only hauls in one catch in wi... | (Rotoworld) Nate Washington caught just one pass for 14 yards in Week 11. Analysis: Washington is the Titans main red-zone target but lost out on that opportunity to Kenny Britt on Monday. He also dropped a perfectly thrown ball from Vince Young that would have gone for 50+ yards. Washington hasn't topped three catches since Week 4 and has Arizona next on the schedule. | 12 hours | |
| 83. | Britt steps in and catches four passes a... | (Rotoworld) Kenny Britt caught four passes for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Titans' Week 11 victory. Analysis: Britt stepped in and started for Justin Gage for the second straight week and was Vince Young's main target. He caught his touchdown from 13 yards out on a nice pass from Young. Britt will be relegated to No. 3 WR duties once Gage returns. | 12 hours | |
| 84. | White scores TD in MNF win for Titans | (Rotoworld) LenDale White rushed two times for four yards and a touchdown in Week 11. Analysis: White got the Titans' lone goal-line carry and capitalized after Chris Johnson gashed the Texans for a 36-yard run. Still, White only saw two touches and has been phased out of the offense with Johnson tearing up the NFL. | 12 hours | |
| 85. | Young leads Titans to Week 11 victory on... | (Rotoworld) Vince Young completed 12-of-22 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown while also rushing for 73 yards on 11 carries in Week 11. Analysis: Young gives the Titans more speed and playmaking ability on offense, as he has the ability to escape pressure and create plays with his legs. Tennessee is now 4-0 with V.Y. as the starter and have a chance to resurrect their season. With Young at QB the Titans have controlled the ball more and have cut down their turnovers considerably. He and the Titans have Arizona at home next week. | 12 hours | |
| 86. | Chris Johnson scampers for 151 yards in ... | (Rotoworld) Chris Johnson rushed for 151 yards on 29 carries in the Titans' Monday night win over the Texans. Analysis: Johnson was held in check for much of the first half, running for 86 yards but 36 of those came on one carry to set up a one-yard touchdown run by LenDale White. He got outside with great speed as usual but lost a goal-line opportunity late in the first half when White scored his TD. Johnson ran for his fifth straight 100-yard game and has Arizona next on the schedule. | 12 hours | |
| 87. | Bucs coach Morris relieves Bates of DC d... | (Rotoworld) Bucs coach Raheem Morris has relieved Jim Bates of defensive coordinator duties and will take over defensive play-calling responsibilities. Analysis: The 1-9 Bucs have the league's worst run defense, allowing 168.9 yards per game, and allow the second-most points in the league at 29.4. Bates will remain with the team to help Morris out with game-planning, but Morris is expected to return the team to their familiar Tampa Two scheme. The Bucs have very few playmakers on defense and didn't change personnel in the offseason to help out Bates' new 4-3 scheme. | 13 hours | |
