Start 'Em/Sit 'Em with Zach Albert- Week 11

Start Em

Earnest Graham- If you’re in need of a running back I suggest you pick this guy up and especially for this week. The falcons are the 23rd ranked rushing defense in the league and Graham has been outstanding in place of the injured Cadillac Williams and Michael Pittman. Graham should have yet again another great game.

Chris Henry- With Henry back Carson Palmer has yet another great target to throw at and yes the Cardinals Pass defense is ranked 10th, giving up just over 200 yards a game but lets get real here, do u think the cardinals are really going to stop Carson Palmer?? With Ocho Cinco and T.J I am not even going to try to spell his last name covered Henry is another great weapon at Palmer’s disposal.

Andre Johnson- This is Johnson’s first game back since his injury but the Saints defense is still at the bottom of the league. It should be safe to start Johnson and I think he’ll have a big game and it may be safe to keep him in your regular lineup but still keep an eye on his injury.

Kevin Curtis- The Dolphins are dead last in interceptions and even with their 5th best passing defense in yards allowed what’s their record again?? Oh yeah its 0-9 that’s right. Curtis will have a big game as long as Donovan Mcnabb can get him the ball, which I believe he will against this horrible Dolphins team.

Sit em

Jon Kitna- Kitna’s been having a Pro Bowl like year but I think he’ll have a hard time this week against the Giants fierce pass rush. The Giants have allowed the fifth most touchdowns in the league but look for Kitna to struggle against the force of Strahan, Umenyiora, and Kiwanuka all day long.

Phillip Rivers- Even with a win last week Rivers had a horrible game with just 104 yards passing and 2 interceptions. His numbers had declined since well the Houston game and that’s not saying much to have a good game against that defense. Rivers hasn’t been consistent enough to have him as your number one quarterback right now. I would start looking for a new starter.

Steve Smith- He hasn’t been the best receiver and his stats are way down since before the bye week and its not going to get any easier for him this week as Smith and the panthers travel to Lambeau Field to take on the Packers with Brett Favre and their 3rd ranked defense.

Bears Defense-With the Seahawks offense clicking on all cylinders and Deion Branch coming back its going to be a rough day for this Bears defense. Lets face it, the Chicago defense isn’t the same from a year ago when their defense used to take over games. Lots of key players are missing from that defense of a year ago and I don’t think this Chicago defense will be as reliable as they were last year.
