Jon Kitna vs. WAS 6
Kitna gets a great matchup against a crumby Washington secondary. Now that Kitna and Romo have started the same number of games, we can see that their totals are surprisingly almost identical. Expect Kitna to exploit his weapons against the Skins.
Ryan Torain vs. DAL 19
After an impressive 172 performance in his triumphant return to action last weekend, Torain proved that he deserves 25 carries against Dallas. They probably don't want to put the game in Rex Grossman's hands, so look for the offense to rotate around Torain for a second straight week.
Jon Stewart and Mike Goodson vs. ARZ 2
Jon Stewart makes for an excellent start, but don't be surprised if Goodson also sneaks out double digit fantasy points, even with less than half of the carries. Believe it or not, Goodson has strung together 5 solid fantasy games in a row. Arizona's defense looks lifeless and Goodson can easily rip a long one off if you're feeling risky.
Greg Jennings vs. NE 9
Don't worry too much that Rodgers is out. Flynn is at least capable, and that's all you need to know to trust Jennings.
Santonio Holmes vs. PIT 21
The matchup isn't great on paper, and Holmes disappointed last week. But this week, Holmes faces his former team and says he knows how to exploit them. Moreover, Polomalu will not play in this game, making Mark Sanchez's life a little easier.
Kenny Britt vs. HOU 2
Britt did not blow up in his return to action against the Colts last week. But it seems clear that Randy Moss is an afterthought and Britt will lead the Titans in targets. All he needs is one play, and against this weak Houston secondary, it seems like a safe bet to make.
Anthony Fasano vs. BUF 3
I'm not saying Fasano will carry your team. But this year, Tight Ends are like kickers - they're a dime a dozen and they all kinda suck. Buffalo continues to give up huge games to TEs, so roll with Fasano if you're deciding between guys like Aaron Hernandez, Brent Celek, and Kellen Winslow.
NOT
Kyle Orton vs. OAK 9
Wow. Talk about a meltdown. I'm shocked if you've made it this far in the playoffs with Orton at the helm. But this week, I would stay away. He's dealing with an injury and could start and then get pulled for Tebow. Even if the injury isn't nagging him, those "Tebow" chants will surely start booming at Orton's first interception.
LT and Shonn Greene vs. PIT 32
Tomlinson and Greene have been splitting the production so evenly that neither warrants a start, especially in this tough matchup.
Sidney Rice vs. CHI 23
Rice is clearly the most talented receiver on the Vikings, but in cold weather, against a formidable Bears opponent, and with Joe Webb at QB, I can't trust Rice in this important week.

Hey, what do people think about starting Joe Webb as a WR this week?
Hopefully you didn't.. because Brett might still start
I would have said greenlight Webb ASAP but now it looks like Farve may be back on the scene.
