Upside is merely potential success based on attributes whether they be physical, mental or both. Upside can also be described as blind predictions that have yet to be factually proven. After thirteen weeks and a 4-8 record, one thing is certain about Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton - he is the real deal, without question. 'Superman' wouldn't be a good nickname for the rookie from Auburn simply because Clark Kent's alter-ego didn't post 204 passing yards, 54 yards rushing, a 27-yard reception and four total touchdowns in a 38-19 victory at Tampa Bay on Sunday.
Byes: none
QB
Rex Grossman (Was vs NE) Good Rex (as opposed to Bad Rex) should appear against the NFL's worst pass defense. Maybe.
Joe Flacco (Bal vs Ind) Sunday shall be a long afternoon for the Colts (0-12), to put things mildly.
Tarvaris Jackson (Sea vs StL) No other reason than because the Rams are horrible on defense, Jackson will be on the field quite a bit on Monday night.
RB
Mike Tolbert (SD vs Buf) Facing the 24th rated defense against the run (129.1 ypg), Tolbert should get a few goal line touches.
Reggie Bush (Mia vs Phi) Two factors: Bush has proven he can rush for 100+ yards more than once and Philly has proven that their 'collection of talent' on defense (115.6 ypg) is not yet a cohesive unit.
Toby Gerhart (Min @ Det) If AP can't go, with all of the injuries at the running back position this season, Gerhart is a better #2 play than none for week 14.
WR
Santana Moss (Was vs NE) With Fred Davis suspended the remainder of the season, Moss will get plenty of targets against the Patriots.
Darrius Heyward-Bey (Oak @ GB) Oakland's receivers are thin in depth. This should play into Heyward-Bey's favor against the second-worst defense in the NFL versus receivers.
Malcom Floyd (SD vs Buf) Floyd had 108 yards receiving on the road against the 4th-best pass defense in the league. He'll be at home against Buffalo (14th) on Sunday.
TE
Dustin Keller (NYJ vs KC) Although Keller has proven to be inconsistent this season, the Chiefs are rather generous when it comes to tight ends (6th worst) in 2011.
Vernon Davis (SF @ Ari) Davis found the end zone against Arizona in week11.
Kellen Winslow (TB @ Jac) Winslow is averaging more than five catches per game in the last month.
DEF
Denver vs Chi
Seattle vs StL
Jacksonville vs TB

Ben Roethlisberger (Pit vs Cle)
