Fantasy Football Advice From a Normal Guy, Week 8

Start:

Alex Smith: Facing the Colts, this is Alex Smith's chance to prove to critics that he's just as good as Peyton Manning. He'll be motivated to prove the doubters wrong.

Drew Brees: The Saint are playing on Monday Night Football so no matter how pathetic your team does on Sunday, you'll still have a chance on Monday night.

Sit:

David Gerrard---The Jaguars have their second bye week of the season in Week 8. They face the Titans.

All Rams and Lions Players---Does a football game really happen if nobody is there to watch it? Don't risk it. If your fantasy team should randomly have a player in this game, sit them...nobody will be there to take stats.

Pray:

Adrian Peterson---With all of the attention focused on Brett Favre coming back to Green Bay, pray that someone else in the game touches the ball.

Eli Manning---Pray that the Giants have touchdown passes on Sunday against the Eagles. The Giants have a lot of confidence in Manning, and it seems like he'll throw 100% of the pass attempts for the Giants on Sunday. If the Giants have a lot of touchdown passes, Eli should have a good day.
