Jaguars

Jacksonville this week it’s really not about the Jaguars, more importantly two top ten college football teams are coming to town for the annual boundary game. The Florida Gators and Georgia Bulldogs will faceoff Saturday and if you’re looking for a good time head out to the Landing for the World’s largest cocktail party.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are coming off a loss to the Browns which could mean Jack Del Rio’s time is ticking. But hey, playing the Bengals this week will definitely help and if they don’t come out with a win expect big changes in J’Ville. The Bengals are winless on the season and have not looked good at all. With the Tennessee Titans rolling the Jags can’t afford to keep losing games. Win or lose David Garrard has been playing great football and has not thrown an interception in the past three games. With the passing game becoming successful the only thing left to getting back on track from last year is the defense. The Jaguars defense is ranked 23rd compared to 6th this time last year, so it’s about time to step up.

This week starting any of the Jaguars key players will be a good move. Expect a big day out of the offense with a balanced attack that should have at least four TD’s. Garrard should start the game hot and lead the team down the field for early touch downs and then from there on out holding the lead and building on it will be where the running backs come into play.

Buccaneers

Offensive struggles were the problem for the Bucs last week; the team was not able to score a touchdown in the game against a Cowboys defense that has struggled all year. Now falling to second place in the division, just like the Jags the Bucs will be facing one of the easier teams in the NFL. The Chiefs have one win on the season and will be without Larry Johnson again this week due to his suspension from his sexual assault case.

This week Joey Galloway will be at 100% for the first time in six weeks, so expect that to open up the deep ball throughout the day. Warrick Dunn is still suffering from the lower back injury and Earnest Graham is slowly starting to get back into the hang of things from last year. Starting Garcia, Graham, Bryant or even the defense could be a top 20 move for this week because the Chiefs have the worst defense in the league and the 5th worst offense.

Dolphins

The Dolphins are coming into this game looking to take down another division leader in the Denver Broncos. The last time these two teams met the Dolphins handled the Broncos beating them by 24 in a defensive turn-up. The Denver Broncos have struggled in recent weeks and are coming off a bye so hopefully fixed their defensive problems. The Dolphins will look to pound the ball this week because after watching the Patriots run for over 230 yards they know they can do the same. Chad Pennington has risen to the top leading the Dolphins pass game to 8th in the NFL. In the tight AFC east everyone is still a contender and every game is going to be crucial from here on out.

Expect the Dolphins to use Ted Gin Jr. again this week to try and finally break the former first round pick surprise into stride. After coming off a career high game with 175 yards Teddy is looking to finally prove that the pick the Dolphins made to take him was a good one. This game should be a high scoring game and lots of physical play. The fantasy player in this game to look out for is Ronnie Brown who might not have a five touchdown game but will be an elite reason why the Dolphins will keep up with Broncos.
