The Lineup : It's a first-place division battle between Thunder and Luck-O-Irish. It's hard to believe I'm even in this position considering how we both got out to the gates. It seems impossible, but I'm benching both FRANK GORE and DEZ BRYANT the same week! It's a wide receiver trio of VICTOR CRUZ, DONNIE AVERY, and CECIL SHORTS. With both tight ends struggling, I go with KYLE RUDOLPH.
Player of the Week :
Doug Martin 55.2
Week 9 Recap : Once again my Vikings connection stunk it up -- getting 1 point between Rudolph and the defense. This is a game I "coulda won" if I'd known to start Carson Palmer, Joique Bell, and Brian Hartline. It was not to be:
BIG THREE

The streak is over.
I fall back to 2nd place.
The Good News :
1. Carson Palmer is heating up.
2. Peterson is in BEAST mode!
3. Hartline is back on track, 12 targets
4. Joique Bell makes some noise.
The Bad News:
1. Cruz has struggled for 2 weeks.
2. Hillis is averaging 2 yards per carry.
3. Dez is dinged up.
4. Finley sucks.
5. Rudolph is never targeted anymore.
