Week 13 fantasy preview

So the Cowboys and Packers got a head start on me, but there are still another 15 games this weekend and there are some matchups that could help your team make that last playoff push, or help sew up that first-round bye.

Lions at Vikings: Adrian Peterson is probable for this on, but you still might want to do a Sunday morning check just in case. Either Peterson or Chestor Taylor are great starts, and Taylor may be worth a start even if Peterson is a go. You don't know how that knee is going to hold up, so they may split some time. On the Detroit side, expect plenty of passing. The Vikings are going to try to eat up the clock, so expect the Lions to go for big plays when they get the ball. Kitna is the safest start, and Roy Williams is solid. Calvin Johnson, Kevin Jones and Shaun McDonald could aslo get some decent points.

Jaguars at Colts: This game doesn't look good for the Colts. The Simeon Rice experiment on defense failed, meaning the Colts will have a weaker pass rush against David Garard, but don't expect that to matter. Expect a steady dose of Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew all day long. Jones-Drew is the better start because he gets the touchdowns (Taylor has more yards on the season, but Jones-Drew holds a 7-2 advantage in TDs). Joseph Addai is a start for the Colts, but he's been banged up and probably won't hit that 20-point mark as he did so often earlier in the year. Peyton Manning will face a stiff pass rush and may be in for another rough outing.

Browns at Cardinals: Here's your fantasy goldmine this week. Two big offense-weak defense teams squaring off on a mild Arizona winter's day. Cleveland's big three (Derek Anderson, Braylon Edwards and Kellen Winslow) are great starts. Same goes for Kurt Warner, Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin.

Patriots at Ravens: Some people might have been pulled in by Bill Belichick's gushing over the Ravens' defense, but I ain't buying it. No one else has stopped the Patriots, and these very same Ravens gave up 33 points to Cleveland. I shouldn't even have to tell you to start Tom Brady, Randy Moss and Wes Welkers, but it looks like I just did anyway.


Finally , I'm going to give you my surprise pick of the weak. Trent Edwards has not been great for the Bills this week, but he may be in for a good game on Sunday. I almost feel like I'm kicking a team when its down in the Redskins, who are coping with the death of teammate Sean Taylor, but I just can't see them getting over that emotional hurdle in this one. Factor in also that Buffalo will be going with a third-string running back and that spells lots of passing attempts. Edwards will find Lee Evans enough to put up some decent fantasy points.
