Cards’ Fitzgerald Uncertain For Sunday

After suffering injuries on MNF, Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald might not play in the team’s game against Detroit this Sunday.

According to The Arizona Republic, Fitzgerald had an MRI which revealed “a bone bruise and a sprained right knee,” although there is said to be no structural damage.

The team will make a decision on his status this week and Arizona is a big 12-point road faves for the Detroit Lions game.

The Cardinals are 7-3 SU and ATS in their last 10 overall games against the Lions and have taken the Over eight times in those 10 games.

The WR suffered the injuries in a 24-9 road loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night — the Cards failed to cover at -3. Read More!

Detroit Lions vs Seattle Seahawks NFL Match Predictions Week 9 NFL Match

The Detroit Lions and the Seattle Seahawks will both be gunning for a victory on Sunday at 4:05 PM ET when they meet at Qwest Field. Lions LB Julian Peterson played with the Seahawks last year and joked that “at least (his current team) doesn’t have to worry about going 0-16 again.”

Both teams (3-10 combined) have talent but aren’t consistent right now. Our NFL week 9 predictions say take the points, both teams are marginal at best and the Lions are a more improved team with Stafford at quarterback.

Fantasy Football Week 8

Fantasy Football Week 8 is here and Cincinnati, Kansas City, New England, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay and Washington all have bye weeks.

A lot of fantasy owners will miss Tom Brady, Wes Welker, Randy Moss, Carson Palmer, Cedric Benson, Dwayne Bowe, Big Ben this week

To prepare you as best we have for your week of Fantasy Football Week 8

Quarterbacks
David Garrard vs. Tennessee Titans: consider him a big option for this week as he will face the worst passing defense in the league. In week 4 against the Titans Garrard threw for 3 TD without a pick for 31 fantasy points.

Jay Cutler vs. Cleveland Browns: Cutler has bounced back every time he had a poor game the week before. The Browns don’t stop nobody, expect big number from him.

Brett Favre vs. Green Bay Packers: Favre tends to put some enormous numbers in big games like this.
Also Phillips Rivers (vs. Raiders) and Matt Hasselbeck (vs. Cowboys) have favorable matchups this week

Running Backs
Steve Slaton vs. Buffalo Bills: Buffalo has the worst defense against the run in the league. Slaton is coming off a nice game against a good 49ers defense. He put 18 fantasy points and you can’t expect something similar this week.

Matt Forte vs. Cleveland Browns: Forte is having a difficult year so far but this week could be the beginning of a new start. He will face the second worse rushing defense in the league and you can also expect him to have a few looks through the air as well.

Steven Jackson vs. Detroit Lions: this will be the week for Jackson to score his first TD of the season. The Lions are allowing 21.9 fantasy points per game to running backs.
Also start Kevin Smith (vs. Rams) and LaDainian Tomlinson (vs. Raiders).

Wide Receivers
Mike Sims-Walker vs. Tennessee Titans: Titans rank 32nd in receiving defense, allowing an average of 325.8 receiving YPG. Sims- Walker had 21 fantasy points against Tennessee in week 4.

Miles Austin vs. Seattle Seahawks: Despite Seattle’s average passing defense, Austin playmaking skills make him a must start.

Lee Evans vs. Houston Texans: he had found the end zone in the last two games and seems to be Ryan Fitzpatrick number one choice.
Consider also T.J. Houshmandzadeh (vs. Cowboys) and Johnny Knox (vs. Cleveland). Read More!
