Matchups to exploit
Cowboys RB Emmitt Smith has scored
six touchdowns in his last five games vs. the Redskins.
Colts WR Marvin Harrison has scored six touchdowns in his last seven games vs.
the Bills.
The Giants should be able to take advantage of a susceptible Steelers run defense that
has allowed five of its last six opponents to gain more than 100 yards. In fact, two of
them have broken the 200-yard mark.
Ravens QB Trent Dilfer should pick up where he left off before Baltimore’s
bye vs. a Chargers defense that has been beaten often in recent weeks.
Matchups to avoid
It’s not the best idea to start any
Chargers this week, especially considering the Ravens have allowed no more than nine
points in four of their last five games.
It doesn’t seem to matter whom the Bears play; they just don’t make a good
matchup. They’ve scored one offensive touchdown in their last 18 quarters.
The Jaguars are on top of their game, and that doesn’t bode well for a Cardinals
team that hasn’t rushed for more than 88 yards in its last five games.
The Dolphins figure to come back to earth vs. a Buccaneers defense that has held its
last six opponents to 17 points or fewer. |
