NFL Week 8 Fantasy Flops
Filed in archive NFL by Kyle Smith on October 26, 2007

RB LaMont Jordan: The Raiders travels to Tennessee to take on the Titans and their top-ranked rush defense. The Titans are only allowing 59.7 rushing yards per game, which is best in the NFL by more than 12 yards. Jordan didn't do much last week against Kansas City, running for only 29 yards on 11 carries, though he did catch four balls for 40 yards. Jordan has been a nice surprise this year, as he has resurrected his game, but this week his match-up is one to avoid.
RB kenny
Watson: Yeah, he had 3 touchdowns last week and 130 yards rushing, but do you really expect him to do that again? Against the Steelers? Rudi Johnson has missed practice this week, and though it's possible he'll play, he may be limited and Watson is sure to get some work. And not only does Pittsburgh feature the third-best run defense in the NFL, but the Bengals are going to be missing right tackle Willie Anderson.WR Santana Moss: The Redskins travel to New England on Sunday, and face a tough pass defense. The Patriots only allow 182 yards through the air, so QB Jason Campbell is in for a difficult go of it unless Moss and others can get going. It's difficult to imagine they will, however, as Moss has been non-existent in the 'Skins past two games, catching a total of two balls for eight yards. In fact, since he lost a fumble in one of those games, his fantasy points would be on the negative side.
QB Vince Young: The Titans take on the Raiders, and that means going up against a solid secondary. Young isn't a great passer anyway, he is coming off an injury, and Oakland is giving up just over 200 yards through the air. Young has been a disappointment in fantasy football this year, and though his completion percentage is up, he has thrown just 3 touchdowns compared to 6 interceptions. His yards per carry average when he runs the ball is down 2.7 yards from last year, and he has as many rushing TD's as he has fumbles lost ... 1.
