Picks for Week 16

Week 15 was full of upsets with the Cowboys beating the Saints and giving them their first loss of the year....And the Game of the Year goes to the Pittsburg Steelers! This team plays with a lot of heart; with only 3 seconds left on the clock they beat the Packers 37-36.

Here are my picks for week 16:

QB- (Redskins) Jason Campbell doesn't have anything to lose and would love to spoil the Cowboys’ chances to go to the playoffs!

RB- (Vikings) Adrian Peterson is ready for a break out week; this could be the week that everyone is waiting for!

RB- (Ravens) Ray Rice will be ready for the challenge against the Steelers this week. There is no love lost between these two teams!

WR- (Patriots) Wes Welker will catch a lot passes this week, he could possibly catch 10-12 passes.

WR- (Houston) Andre Johnson had an awesome game last week catching 9 passes for 196 yards; he loves big stages, look for him to put up some large fantasy numbers against the Dolphins!

TE- (Titans) Bo Scaife could catch a lot of balls from Vince Young and be the go to guy when being pressured by a good San Diego pass rush with Merriman leading the way!

Kicker- (Cardinals) Neil Rackers should be pretty active for the high-powered Arizona offense when they face the Rams.

Defense/ST- (49ers) The Niners Defense should dominate this week when they return home to Candlestick Park to face the Detroit Lions.

Team to watch: (San Diego vs. Tennessee) should be a lot of fire works...Rivers and Young are playing some great football these days, and Vince has RB Chris Johnson, the best running back in the league to hand off too!

Must Start- (Cardinals) Beanie Wells is playing like a beast, this rookie last week ran for 110 yards and scored a touchdown, he's becoming the go to guy in Arizona’s offense.

Must Start- (49ers) RB Frank Gore will be going for his 4th consecutive 1000 yard season, look for him to finish the season with a bang!

Must sit- (Bears) RB Matt Forte will have a tough time running against the Vikings Defense that just came off a loss against Carolina!

Must sit- (Tampa Bay) QB Freeman might have played well against the Seahawks last week, but the Saints are at home and will want to get back on track after there first loss last week against the Cowboys!

Sleeper- (Browns) RB Jerome Harris is running on fire he had some explosive fantasy numbers last week with 286 yards and 3-TD’s, breaking the 52 year old record set by Jim Brown with 237 yards.

Sleeper- (Steelers) TE Heath Miller is catching a lot of balls in the red zone, look for his role to increase!

Good luck Fantasy players with your picks, and I'll see you next week!
