As seen on TV

It's pretty crazy watching the difference between Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes as far as catching a football.  You might even go as far to say one can catch while one cannot.  It's probably that simple.  This game isn't over (it's halftime).  Remember the Jets crushed the Pats in the second half earlier this year.

I saw a few more things of interest while watching yesterday that I'd like to share.  As always, in no particular order...

Anthony Dixon was used inside the five for the 49ers and looks to be the more valuable guy in that backfield.  It may not be close.

James Starks?  Yep, the guy many thought may be a factor at some point this year has emerged just after most who took a flier cut him loose.  If you didn't see the box score, Starks' 18-73 was a stunning development considering Brandon Jackson had just four carries.  Further complicating matters is the continued presence of John Kuhn, who ran in a goal line score.  Starks is worth a look though.

I have a feeling Ray Rice is likely to be the least valuable player in fantasy this season.  Or Chris Johnson.  Or Larry Fitzgerald, but at least we saw that one coming.  Or (crap) Shonn Greene.  Or Ryan Mathews (winner?).

I think Derek Anderson's play is funny.  Funny enough that I was talking to my friend about it on the couch yesterday while my fantasy team was taking a beating.  We were laughing together.  Is that cool if your fantasy team is losing?  If he really cared as much as he said he'd hold the clipboard for the rest of the season.

It's hard to look as bad as Marshawn Lynch did yesterday in a 25+ point fantasy day.  He just has little to offer other than this one moment to sell high.

Felix Jones 22 carries, Tashard Choice 19.  Choice got the money zone.  It's very much worth paying attention to Choice for this year and beyond.

Jahvid Best looked healthier yesterday than I've seen him in a month.

Seven (of the team's 28) targets for Danario Alexander.  My love will not let you down.

Tim Hightower 15 carries, Beanie Wells 3.  Does it matter with their QB situation?

No AP injury issues going forward.  He looked very good.

I think we can play the Giants backs just like Miami's duo.  They'll split the workload in all situations pretty evenly.  Slight edge to Bradshaw as a pass catcher, and for being a bit less crazy.

That Tennessee offense is tragic right now.  Six points at home against the Jags?

Cheers,
TFAM
