Life is all about choices. From choosing to quickly respond to a text before the light turns green - even though it's raining, to choosing to send your kids to public school or home school, things happen as a result of certain choices being made.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie (Boise St.) running back, Doug Martin, chose the 'A' gap shortly after halftime on his way to a 45-yard touchdown run at Oakland (3-5). Martin also made the decision to follow his special-interest group along the left sideline to end the third quarter in the Bucs'(4-4) 42-32 defeat of the Raiders on Sunday. The California native gashed the Raiders defense for 272 all-purpose yards and four touchdowns in victory.
Byes: Arizona, Cleveland, Green Bay, Washington
QB
Alex Smith (SF vs StL) Facing St. Louis at home, Smith will line up across from the 17th ranked defense the NFL against the pass.
Jake Locker (Ten @ Mia) Locker has gotten the nod to start Sunday. He will face a Miami pass defense that ranks 30th, allowing over 300 passing yards per game.
Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buf @ NE) As great as the Patriots offense is, the defense gives up 281 yards through the air (28th).
RB
Marcel Reece (Oak @ Bal) Darren McFadden and Mike Goodson are injured. Plus Baltimore has the fifth-worst run defense in the NFL through nine weeks (139.5 rush ypg).
Rashad Jennings (Jac @ Ind) Jennings should be Fantasy worthy, facing a Colts defense that gives up 130.8 rushing yards per contest (25th).
Christopher Ivory (NO vs Atl) The Falcons allow almost five yards per carry and 127.5 rushing yards per game. Ivory should benefit.
WR
Michael Crabtree (SF vs StL) This game may get out of hand by the beginning of the third quarter. Crabtree should see the end zone before halftime.
Malcom Floyd (SD @ TB) Who has the worst defense against receiving? That's right, the Bucs. Enough said, no?
Emmanuel Sanders (Pit vs KC) With Antonio Brown nursing a foot injury, Sanders will get more targets against the Chiefs on Monday night.
TE
Martellus Bennett (NYG @ Cin) Bennett has seen his numbers decrease over the past three weeks but the fact that the Bengals are allowing the seventh-most Fantasy points per game to tight ends should serve as a remedy.
Dustin Keller (NYJ @ Sea) Although the Seahawks have a decent defensive unit overall, they tend to give up quite a mound to tight ends in 2012.
Greg Olsen (Car vs Den) More than likely, Carolina will be playing from behind for most of the game. Olsen should get targets for this reason, if not for anything else.
