Great list, glad you are here.

Only real problem I see is Philly being ranked pretty high when they are playing Arizona and I see a pretty big game from McCown. But why is Rudi Johnson ranked lower than DeShaun? Good job anyway!

It's a toss-up between Rudi Johnson and DeShaun. The edge goes to DeShaun in my opinion, because of the receiving yards he'll net in. Rudi, on the other hand, probably won't rack in many receiving yards.

I'd say McCown throws for around 270 yards, but I expect one or two picks along with that. (One or two TD's as well)

About Philly's D, I have a note in my notebook for this week explaining "points allowed" are important, but not crucial if the other categories are fulfilled. I don't see Philly shutting Arizona down to anything under 17 points, but 1-2 interceptions are expected, and I'd give them 3 sacks or so as well.

Pretty good list...two RB's I would put in that list is Caddy facing a weak Atl run D...I think he could have 100yds and 2 TDS and Ricky Williams is primed for a very productive game w/out (most likely) Brown playing.

Edited WR list.

1. Steve Smith
2. Chambers
3. Chad Johnson
4. Hines Ward
5. Boldin
6. Stallworth
7. Housh
8. Bennett
9. Galloway
10. Darrell Jackson (game-time decision)

If Jackson's out, 10 spot belongs to Holt.
