MIKE TOLBERT SD: He is quietly a top 20 guy and has scored in five straight. Norv loves Mathews and is doing everything to get him going in two games before last week Tolbert averaged three carries but still had a score. He has become the Lendale White of two seasons ago. They face the Texans this week and may be down to Patrick Crayton as the only pass option with Gates hurt. Last week all three backs had a healthy amount of touches and I expect the same here. Tolbert should be good for a score and good yardage.
CEDRIC BENSON CIN: He faces the stellar Steeler run defense on Monday night. The Steelers have held everyone to minimal yardage and Benson is projected by most to have a 50 yard day at best. However, the Bengals will attack the weak secondary and throw it often. The Steelers will need to drop some LB's back leaving Benson with room since umlike other teams, the Bengals can make you pay vertically in single coverage. I say about 60 yards but he does score.
PATRICK CRAYTON SD: Gates may be out and while Crayton hasn't really done much with the opportunity, he is facing the horrible Texans secondary. He still has the speed to make teams pay, and the Texans should load the box trying to stop the Charger back field.
SHONN GREENE NYJ: He has been far less than great and is getting limited touches because of LT's great play. However, they face the dead last Lions rush defense and memories of his 111 yard game vs Buffalo come to mind. He should at minimum give you seven points and I think scores.
JONATHAN STEWART CAR: While he failed to produce much of anything last week as the starter, he has at least gotten his feet back. Unless Williams practices today, he again will get the nod vs New Orleans. This time he will be at home in a divisional game guys step up for. The Saints can be run on and Stewart won't come up short two weeks in a row. I see a score and about 60 yards.
