Week 5 – Sunday Morning Tidbits
by Chris Mooney
Keep checking in for updates, but here are some things we’re hearing thus far:
12:21: In case you were wondering, Panther QB Jake Delhomme is inactive, as is LB Dan Morgan.
12:15: Also as expected, Ram WR Isaac Bruce is inactive.
12:14: As expected, Cardinal WR Anquan Boldin is inactive.
12:12: Good news for the Lions: WR Calvin Johnson is active, so he should play. He may not start, but he should play.
12:11: As feared, Redskin WR Santana Moss is inactive. James Thrash starts for him. G Randy Thomas is also inactive, which certainly doesn’t help their running game.
12:08: It’s confirmed: Patriot RB Laurence Maroney is inactive. Sammy Morris will start and Kevin Faulk should see a few extra carries.
12:04: Texan RB Ahman Green apparently didn’t do enough late in practice this week. He’s inactive. Ron Dayne starts for him and makes a good start for fantasy against the dreadfull Miami defense.
12:00: As expected, Giant WR Plaxico Burress is active, as is, DE Osi Umenyiora.
11:59: Giant RB Brandon Jacobs is active, but Derrick Ward has been announced as the “starter.” We would still use Jacobs, though, since he should be a lock to score.
11:48: Bad news for the Steelers and good news for the Seahawks: DT Casey Hampton, S Troy Polamalu, and #3 CB Brian McFadden are inactive.
11:45: Some insiders have informed us that RB Laurence Maroney will be inactive today. They also tell us that WR Donte Stallworth will be active and in the starting lineup. We’ll get the official inactives from the team in 15-20 minutes.
