Sunday Keynotes for Week 15

I'm back. Of course, you should check out the Game Day Wonders for some insight into Hot and Cold players as well as the Silent but Deadly call of the week, but if you are looking for more information on some sleepers for today's action, here you go.

Brandon Jacobs, RB NYG - The Jacobs train will welcome the Philadelphia run defense which has been almost as bad as the Colts' run defense this year. It is no secret that Jacobs has been taking all of Tiki Barber's touchdowns. I am expecting 65 rushing yards and 2, count them, 2 touchdowns from Jacobs today.

Cedric Benson, RB CHI - It looks like we should expect Thomas Jones to start today, but Benson has been very effective and could slide away with some nice yardage and a score. He is a worthy start if you are struggling with your running backs. Expect 71 yards and 1 touchdown.

Tom Brady, QB NE - Tom Brady has been looking like Trent Dilfer in recent outings but I think he will rebound nicely this week. Of course, if you drafted Brady, you probably have no better options but don't sweat this start this week against Houston. Get ready for 300 passing yards and 2 touchdowns.

Greg Jennings, WR GB - Jennings will get the opportunity to exploit the Lions' sorry secondary this week. The Lions have been friendly to opposing #2 wide-outs all year long. Prepare yourself for 8 receptions, 113 yards, and 1 score this week as Jennings rebounds from some tough injury hassles.

Willis McGahee, RB BUF - The Miami run defense is about as fantasy friendly as the Minnesota Vikings run stoppers. McGahee will struggle to find a running lane and be ineffective fantasy-wise. I am expecting 16 carries for 54 yards and 0 touchdowns.

Kellen Winslow, TE CLE - You might not have many options left on the waiver wire, but don't get excited for Winslow's match-up today. His mouth has been outperforming his numbers lately. I am expecting 4 receptions for 22 yards and 0 scores.

Carolina Panthers, Def/ST - With the turnover prone Pittsburgh Steelers coming into Charlotte, the Panthers defense might seem like a confident start. I beg to differ. I am expecting a big, productive day from Ben Roethlisberger and I also think Willie Parker will turn around his road rushing woes this week as well.
